Exegesis

The accusative participle tharrountas {θαρροῦντας | thar-roûn-tas} with the pronoun hemas {ἡμᾶς | hē-mâs} operates as the logical subject of the infinitive legein {λέγειν | lé-gein} in an accusative-and-infinitive construction, idiomatically rendered “we may say.”

In contextHebrews 13:6

Therefore we may say with confidence: “The Lord is my helper ; I will not fear; what can man do to me?”
