Open translation for this passage
ἀποστέλλουσιν οὖν ἐς Κλάρον θεωροὺς οἱ Σμυρναῖοι περὶ τῶν παρόντων σφίσιν ἐρησομένους, καὶ αὐτοῖς ἔχρησεν ὁ θεός· τρὶς μάκαρες κεῖνοι καὶ τετράκις ἄνδρες ἔσονται, οἳ Πάγον οἰκήσουσι πέρην ἱεροῖο Μέλητος.
The sentence contains an initial reporting clause, followed by the oracle's coordinated prediction; θεωρούς is the accusative complement of ἀποστέλλουσιν, and ἐρησομένους is a future participle of purpose. The oracle quotation has an implicit copular predicate in τρὶς μάκαρες ... ἄνδρες ἔσονται, with οἳ introducing the relative clause.
