Part of Speech: Verb, Article
Explanation: This word is a compound of the aorist infinitive of the verb 'στενάζω' (stenazo), meaning 'to groan, to sigh, to lament,' and the dative plural masculine or neuter definite article 'τοῖς' (tois), meaning 'to the' or 'for the.' The combination suggests an action of groaning or sighing directed towards or concerning 'the' (plural masculine or neuter entities). It is not a single inflected word but rather two words written together, which is common in ancient Greek manuscripts due to scriptio continua (writing without spaces).
