First Person Plural - Present tense?

[edit]

I'm no Latin scholar, but isn't 'spectemur' the present tense (indicative passive voice, 1st person plural) of spector ? Should the translation of it not be "We are judged by our actions"?

IIANM, The future perfect "Let us be judged..." would be "spectati"
