Exegesis

This object is then restricted by the genitive relative clause hon ou kateirgasato Christos di emou {ὧν οὐ κατειργάσατο Χριστὸς διʼ ἐμοῦ | hōn ou kateirgásato Christós diʼ emoû}, literally “of which Christ did not accomplish through me,” which idiomatically yields an exceptive sense: Paul will only speak of what Christ has in fact accomplished through him.

For I will not dare to speak of anything except those things which Christ has accomplished through me for the obedience of the Gentiles, by word and by deed .
