Exegesis
This subject is further defined by an appositional article hoi {οἱ | hoi} followed by two aorist participles, porneusantes {πορνεύσαντες | por-neú-san-tes} and streniasantes {στρηνιάσαντες | strē-ni-á-san-tes}, both modified by the prepositional phrase met’ autes {μετʼ αὐτῆς | met’ autês} “with her.” These participles depict completed actions in the past relative to the future weeping, summarizing their past moral and economic complicity.
In context — Revelation 18:9
And the kings of the earth, those who committed sexual immorality with her and lived luxuriously, will weep and mourn over her when they see the smoke of her burning ,
