Exegesis
The explicit subject pronoun hymeis {ὑμεῖς | hymeîs} together with the reflexive heautous {ἑαυτούς | heautoús} forms an emphatic clause, literally “you, yourselves,” underscoring personal responsibility. The middle dot after heautous divides this admonition from the predictive description that follows.
In context — Mark 13:9
But watch yourselves; they will hand you over to councils, and in synagogues you will be beaten, and before governors and kings you will stand for My sake, as a testimony to them.
