I’m trying to figure out why the NASB changed 1 Peter 4:19 (“Let those who suffer according to the will of God entrust their souls…”) from imperative (“let them entrust”) in the 1977 edition to indicative (“they shall entrust”) in the 1995 edition. It’s imperative in the Greek (to the best of my knowledge of Greek) and in most other translations, so I can’t think of a reason why they’d make that change. Anyone have any insights, or even educated guesses?
