Exegesis
The genitive articular participle tou lalountos {τοῦ λαλοῦντός | toû laloûntos} ‘of the one speaking’ specifies whose voice is in view, and the dative moi {μοι | moi} ‘to me’ marks Paul as the unique recipient of the speech. This construction conveys that the companions shared the external sign (the light) but not the personal communication (the voice), a nuance preserved in translation by keeping the contrast between “saw” and “did not hear” and by explicitly retaining the relative clause “who was speaking to me.”
In context — Acts 22:9
But those who were with me saw the light indeed, but they did not hear the voice of Him who was speaking to me.
