Exegesis
Within that clause the compound subject desma kai thlipseis {δεσμὰ καὶ θλίψεις | des-má kaí thlí-pseis} names the coming trials, while the accusative pronoun me {με | me} is the object of menousin {μένουσιν | mé-nou-sin} “await,” a present tense indicating anticipated reality. The nested that-clauses mirror the Greek structure, and translating kata polin as “in every city” and menousin as “await” preserves the distributive and immediacy of the original.
Root and etymology
menomu–epsilon–nu–omega
“to remain, stay, wait”
In context — Acts 20:23
Except that the Holy Spirit in every city testifies to me, saying that bonds and afflictions await me.
