The imperfect verb parekaloun {παρεκάλουν | pa-re-ká-loun} conveys ongoing, earnest begging directed at Jesus, expressed by the pronoun auton {αὐτὸν | au-tón}.
In context — Matthew 14:36
And they were begging Him that they might only touch the fringe of His garment, and as many as touched it were completely healed.
