Exegesis
The present indicative akoueis {ἀκούεις | akou-eis} ‘do You hear’ with interrogative ti {τί | tí} ‘what’ and demonstrative houtoi {οὗτοι | hoút-oi} ‘these’ signals a rhetorical question about the crowd’s ongoing legousin {λέγουσιν | lég-ou-sin} ‘they are saying’.
In context — Matthew 21:16
And they said to Him, “Do You hear what these are uttering?” But Jesus says to them, “Yes; Have You never read that, ‘Out of the mouth of infants and nursing babies You have prepared praise’?”
