SIBI-P1 Translation G71-14
let us lead
| Morphological Notes | Verb; present tense (ongoing aspect), active voice, subjunctive mood, first person plural — hortatory subjunctive. |
| Rendering Rationale | The present active subjunctive, first person plural, functions hortatively, expressing an exhortation: "let us." The rendering preserves the core root meaning "to lead" while reflecting the plural, active, and subjunctive force. |

SILEX v2
SIBI-P2 (Context-Aware)
let us go
| Same as P1 | No — adjusted for context |
| Rationale | Changed from 'let us lead' to 'let us go,' as the verb here means to go or proceed, not to lead others; the context is Jesus encouraging the disciples to go to Judea. This corrects an evident lexical error. |
| P1 Flag | P1 chose the wrong sense, should be 'go' not 'lead' here. |
