Exegesis
The final epi se {ἐπὶ σέ | e-pí sé} ‘upon You’ conveys the direction of their faith. English preserves Greek emphases—especially autoi and the imperfect with participles—and renders epi se as “believe in You”/“put their faith in You” for relational clarity.
In context — Acts 22:19
And I said, “Lord , they themselves know that I was imprisoning and beating in the synagogues those who believe in You.”
