Exegesis
The phrase hyper emou {ὑπὲρ ἐμοῦ | hypér emoû} indicates that these prayers are on Paul’s behalf, and pros ton theon {πρὸς τὸν θεόν | pròs tòn theón} specifies God as the One toward whom their united intercession is directed. In translation, the parallel dia-phrases are retained to preserve the dual motivation, while the infinitive is rendered as an exhortation (“to strive together,” “join me”) to convey the sense of shared, intense engagement in prayer.
In context — Romans 15:30
But I urge you, brothers, through our Lord Jesus Christ and through the love of the Spirit , to strive together with me in the prayers for me to God .
