Exegesis
The relative clause ho soi legomen {ὅ σοι λέγομεν | hó soi lé-go-men} ‘what we say to you’ functions as the direct object of the imperative, with ho referring back to touto in a content sense, creating a compact command.
In context — Acts 21:23
Therefore do this that we say to you: There are four men among us who have a vow upon them.
