Open translation for this passage
τοῦτον Φειδίας τὸν λίθον εἰργάσατο ἄγαλμα μὲν εἶναι Νεμέσεως,
Accusative τοῦτον ... λίθον is the object of εἰργάσατο; the infinitive εἶναι with predicative ἄγαλμα Νεμέσεως is an epexegetic/resultative complement, while μὲν anticipates a later contrast.

συμβαλέσθαι δὲ τὸ ἐς τοὺς Αἰθίοπας οὔτε αὐτὸς εἶχον οὔτε ἀπεδεχόμην τῶν συνιέναι πειθομένων,
The passage contrasts the speaker's inability to make sense of the Ethiopian account with his refusal to accept those persuaded to understand it; attachment of the articular infinitive and the genitive participial phrase is somewhat interpretive.
