Exegesis
The second half mirrors this structure: kai gar hēmeis asthenoumen en autō {καὶ γὰρ ἡμεῖς ἀσθενοῦμεν ἐν αὐτῷ | kaì gàr hēmeîs asthenoûmen en autô} “for we also are weak in Him” uses present tense and the dative of sphere with en to express mutual participation in Christ’s weakness.
Root and etymology
asthenēsalpha–sigma–theta–epsilon–nu–eta–sigma
“weak, feeble”
In context — 2 Corinthians 13:4
For He was crucified out of weakness , yet He lives by the power of God . For we also are weak in Him, yet we will live with Him by the power of God in our dealings toward you.
