Exegesis
The conjunction kai then introduces enōpion sou {ἐνώπιόν σου | enṓpion soû} ‘before you,’ depicting the offense as committed in the personal presence of the father. In translation, the formal renders the participle + future combination literally in order, while the dynamic employs idiomatic English to convey the immediacy of both confession and confrontation.
In context — Luke 15:18
Having arisen, I will go to my father and I will say to him, “Father , I have sinned against heaven and before you.”
