[B-Greek] OUS O QEOS SYNEZEUXEN…

I have a question on the pronoun OUS.
Greeks, referring to a couple getting married as being divinely
ordained, often use the coined phrase: OUS O QEOS SYNEZEUXEN, which is
slightly different from the original O OUN O QEOS SUNEZEUXEN [...]. The
KJV renders OUN as “WHAT,” but I think the common Greek notion of OUS
(at least in this case) is “THESE,” i.e. these two, who are getting
married. Is this a proper use of the Koine OUS?
Thank you,
Dean Kalmantis
