SIBI-P1 Translation G4098-12
Fall down
| Morphological Notes | Verb; aorist tense (simple/decisive action), active voice, imperative mood, 2nd person plural — a command addressed to multiple hearers. |
| Rendering Rationale | The aorist active imperative, 2nd person plural, issues a direct command for a decisive act of falling or descending. "Fall down" preserves the core motion from higher to lower inherent in πίπτω without importing contextual nuance. |
