Exegesis
The relative clause hou me dei krinesthai {οὗ με δεῖ κρίνεσθαι | hoû me deî krí-nes-thai} expresses proper jurisdiction: the genitive relative pronoun hou refers back to the tribunal as the place or forum ‘where’ this must occur, while the impersonal verb dei with a passive infinitive krinesthai conveys necessity and obligation, ‘where it is necessary that I be judged’.
