πληρωθῶσιν
plēróō
might be fulfilled
To make full, to fill up, or cause to abound; to complete something so that nothing is lacking. In extended senses: (1) to fill a container or space; (2) to complete a required time or task; (3) to fulfill or bring to realization (an obligation, requirement, word, or prophecy); (4) to bring to full measure or maturity (of character, knowledge, etc.); (5) to carry out or accomplish fully (assigned duties, command, or role). Thus, depending on context, πληρόω can mean to physically fill, to bring to a state of completeness, or to fulfill in the sense of carrying out what was previously planned or foretold.

SIBI-P1 Translation G4137-32
may be made full
| Morphological Notes | Verb; aorist tense (complete action), passive voice, subjunctive mood, 3rd person plural. |
| Rendering Rationale | The aorist tense views the action as a complete whole, the passive voice indicates the subject receives the filling, and the subjunctive mood expresses potential or intended result. "May be made full" preserves the root sense of fullness while reflecting the passive and subjunctive force. |
