hoi DE syn e-MOI ON-tes to MEN PHÔS e-the-A-san-to tên DE phō-NÊN ouk Ê-kou-san tou la-loûn-TOS MOI
Exegesis
The verse begins with the nominative plural phrase hoi de syn emoi ontes {οἱ δὲ σὺν ἐμοὶ ὄντες | hoi dè sýn emoì óntes} ‘but those being with me’, which functions as the subject of both main verbs and highlights Paul’s companions as a distinct group.
The preposition syn {σύν | sýn} with the dative emoi {ἐμοί | emoí} emphasizes close association with Paul.
