γενηθῶμεν
gínomai
we might become
to become, to come into being, to happen; primarily denotes the process of transition from one state to another, the coming into existence or reality of something that was not previously so. In various contexts, it can also mean to occur, take place, arise, develop, or change; sometimes serves as a circumlocution for 'to be' when indicating the process or result of becoming, rather than simple existence. Used of events, states, and sometimes of persons or things coming to be in a particular role or status.

SIBI-P1 Translation G1096-44
that we might become
| Morphological Notes | Verb; aorist tense (simple/completed aspect), passive form (deponent in meaning), subjunctive mood, first person plural. |
| Rendering Rationale | The aorist subjunctive expresses a simple, undefined act of coming into being viewed as a whole, while the first person plural marks shared potential action. Though morphologically passive, γίνομαι functions intransitively, so "become" preserves its core sense of transition into a new state. |
