Exegesis
The direct speech contains a coordinated pair of imperatives, Deute synachthēte {Δεῦτε συνάχθητε | Deû-te sy-nách-thē-te}, combining an urgent “Come” with a passive “be gathered,” portraying the birds as summoned by a higher authority to assemble.
In context — Revelation 19:17
And I saw one angel standing in the sun, and he cried out with a loud voice, saying to all the birds that are flying in midheaven, “Come, be gathered to the great supper of God .”
