Exegesis
The verb katergazetai {κατεργάζεται | katergázetai} in the present middle voice depicts an ongoing, purposeful action, and its object hypomonen {ὑπομονήν | hypomonḗn}, placed finally, yields rhetorical emphasis. In translation, ginoskontes is rendered as a finite verb (“You know…”, “For you already know…”) to make explicit the assured understanding that testing produces endurance.
In context — James 1:3
You know that the testing of your faith brings about endurance .
