Exegesis

The phrase en panti agathō {ἐν παντὶ ἀγαθῷ | en pantí agathṓ} ‘in every good thing’ modifies the infinitive to indicate the scope of divine equipping.

The present active participle poiōn {ποιῶν | poiôn} agrees with the implicit subject (God) and introduces a participial clause elaborating the means and result: en hēmîn {ἐν ἡμῖν | en hēmîn} ‘in us’ and to euáreston enṓpion autoû {τὸ εὐάρεστον ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ | tò euáreston enṓpion autoû} ‘what is well-pleasing before Him,’ highlighting divine approval.
