SIBI-P1 Translation G1241-01
he girded himself tightly
| Morphological Notes | Verb; aorist tense (simple completed action), middle voice (reflexive/self-involved), indicative mood, 3rd person singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The aorist middle indicative, 3rd singular, denotes a completed action performed with self-involvement. "Girded himself tightly" reflects the intensified force of διά (thoroughly) and the reflexive nuance of the middle voice. |
