Exegesis
What characterizes those days is then unpacked through three coordinated future verbs: parembalousin {παρεμβαλοῦσιν | pa-rem-ba-loû-sin} ‘they will set up’, perikyklosousin {περικυκλώσουσίν | pe-ri-ky-klō-sou-sin} ‘they will surround’, and synexousin {συνέξουσίν | sy-né-xou-sin} ‘they will hem in’, all sharing the same implied subject, the enemies.
In context — Luke 19:43
Because days will come upon you when your enemies set up a trench for you, surround you, and hem you in on every side.
