Exegesis
The relative pronoun hon {ὃν | hón} ‘which’ introduces a restrictive clause that narrows the reference to a specific word, and lelaleka {λελάληκα | le-lá-lē-ka} ‘I have spoken’ uses the perfect form to present the speaking as completed action with continuing results. English renderings therefore keep the completed state clear while rephrasing the causal link in a more natural way.
In context — John 15:3
You are already pure on account of the word I have spoken to you.
