Exegesis
The clause hoti kai huper ha lego poieseis {ὅτι καὶ ὑπὲρ ἃ λέγω ποιήσεις | hóti kaí hypér ha légō poiḗseis} is introduced by hoti ‘that’ and contains Paul’s expectation: the coordinating kai ‘also’ strengthens the assertion, huper ‘beyond’ marks excess, ha lego ‘what I say’ specifies the content of his request, and the future indicative poieseis ‘you will do’ conveys firm expectation rather than mere possibility. English renders the participles as finite verbal forms (“having confidence,” “knowing”) subordinated to the main verb to maintain natural flow while preserving the logical sequence: confidence → writing → assured expectation of action that exceeds the explicit request.
