The conjunction hoti {ὅτι | hóti} introduces the content clause of his knowledge: horkō ōmosen autō ho theos {ὅρκῳ ὤμοσεν αὐτῷ ὁ θεὸς | hórkō ōmósen autō̂ ho theós}, ‘God swore to him with an oath,’ where the dative horkō is instrumental and autō marks the indirect object.
In context — Acts 2:30
Therefore, being a prophet and knowing that God had sworn to him with an oath to seat one from the fruit of his loins upon his throne.
