Exegesis
Two parallel purpose clauses follow: the first, introduced by oukh hina {οὐχ ἵνα | oukh hí-na} plus the aorist subjunctive passive phanōmen {φανῶμεν | pha-nô-men}, clarifies that the aim is not for the apostles themselves to appear approved; the second, introduced by hina {ἵνα | hí-na} with the present subjunctive active poiēte {ποιῆτε | poi-ê-te}, outlines the goal that the Corinthians actively do the good.
In context — 2 Corinthians 13:7
We now pray to God that you do no evil at all; not so that we may appear approved , but so that you may do what is good, even if we should be found disapproved.
