Exegesis
The participial clause tous mē thelēsantas me basileusai epʼ autous {τοὺς μὴ θελήσαντάς με βασιλεῦσαι ἐπʼ αὐτοὺς | toùs mē the-lḗ-san-tas me basileû-sai epʼ autoùs} functions attributively, expressing a decisive refusal of the nobleman’s authority.
The aorist infinitive basileusai {βασιλεῦσαι | basileû-sai} with the object me and prepositional phrase epʼ autous {ἐπʼ αὐτοὺς | epʼ autoùs} specifies the content of their rejection.
In context — Luke 19:27
But as for these enemies of mine, those who did not want me to reign over them, bring them here and slay them before me.
