Exegesis
The relative clause hon sy diōkeis {ὃν σὺ διώκεις | hon sy di-ṓ-keis} is adjectival, modifying Iēsous and placing the object hon ‘whom’ first for focus, followed by the explicit subject sy and the present tense verb diōkeis, underscoring Saul’s ongoing hostile activity. In translation, the direct-speech structure is preserved with quotation marks and parallel clauses, the pronoun emphasis is maintained through explicit “I” and “You,” and the relative clause is rendered as “whom you are persecuting” / “the One you are persecuting” to keep its tight linkage to Jesus’ identity.
