Exegesis
Within this clause, two coordinated dative phrases, tais chreiais mou {ταῖς χρείαις μου | taîs khreí-ais mou} and kai tois ousi met’ emou {καὶ τοῖς οὖσι μετʼ ἐμοῦ | kaí toîs oû-si met’ e-mou}, function as datives of advantage, indicating those for whom the action was performed: Paul’s own needs and those of the people who were with him.
The participial phrase tois ousi {τοῖς οὖσι | toîs oû-si} “those who are” with the preposition met’ emou {μετʼ ἐμοῦ | met’ e-mou} forms a descriptive group, effectively “those who were with me,” identifying companions or coworkers.
In context — Acts 20:34
You yourselves know that these hands have served my needs and the needs of those who were with me.
