Definition

σύ,

pron. of 2nd of person(s),

thou, you, genitive, σοῦ, dative, σοί, accusative, σέ, pl., ὑμεῖς, -ῶν, -ῖν, -ᾶς (enclitic in oblique cases sing., except after prep. (BL, §48, 3), though πρὸς σέ occurs in Matthew 25:39). Nom. for emphasis or contrast: John 1:30; 4:10; 5:33, 39, 44, Acts 4:7, Ephesians 5:32; so also perhaps σὺ εἶπας, Matthew 26:64, al.

The genitive (σοῦ, ὑμῶν) is sometimes placed bef. the noun: Luke 7:48; 12:30, al.; so also the enclitic σοῦ, Matthew 9:6; on τί ἐμοὶ κ. σοί, see: ἐγώ.
