    In 1 Corinthians 4:8, the perfect passive participle occurs in a statement paired with becoming rich and reigning; the APB renders the clause “Already you are satisfied.” In Acts 27:38, the aorist passive participle precedes the crew's throwing grain into the sea after eating; the APB renders “When they had eaten enough.”

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the term as “satisfied” in 1 Corinthians 4:8 and “eaten enough” in Acts 27:38. These are verse-level renderings rather than definitions.
