a. followed by an infinitive [Winers Grammar, § 44, 3] present or aorist (on the distinction between which, cf. Winer's Grammar, § 44, 7).

c. joined with an accusative, δύναμαί τι, to be able to do something (cf. German ich vermag etwas): Mark 9:22; Luke 12:26; 2 Corinthians 13:8, (and in Greek writings from Homer on).
