Exegesis
The object panta ta paraptomata {πάντα τὰ παραπτώματα | pán-ta ta paraptṓ-ma-ta} stresses the comprehensive scope of forgiveness. Syntactically, the participial clause is best taken as causal or instrumental (“by forgiving us all the trespasses”), so the English renderings preserve the participial nuance while clarifying that the making alive and the forgiving are tightly linked parts of a single saving event.

In context — Colossians 2:13
And you, who were dead in your trespasses and in the uncircumcision of your flesh, He made alive together with Him, having forgiven us all the trespasses .
