SIBI-P1 Translation G2147-16

was found

Morphological NotesVerb; aorist tense (simple past/completed), passive voice, indicative mood, 3rd person singular.
Rendering RationaleThe aorist tense presents the action as a completed event, and the passive voice indicates the subject underwent the act of being discovered or obtained. "Was found" preserves the root sense of discovery while reflecting third person singular aorist passive indicative morphology.
