ἀμησάντων

amáō

who have mowed

To reap, to cut grain in the process of harvesting, to gather in a harvest, especially by scythe or sickle; more generally, to collect plants or crops during harvest. This verb specifically refers to the act of cutting grain or similar crops, rather than picking fruit or gathering by hand. In context, may also carry metaphorical sense of gathering or bringing in (e.g., a harvest of souls), though always with the imagery of reaping as central.
