Note 2 topic: writing-pronouns
ἐν αὐτῷ & δι’ αὐτοῦ
in him_‹is› & through him
Both occurrences of the word him in this verse refer to Jesus Christ. If this is not clear for your readers, you could use his name here. Alternate translation: “in Jesus … through Jesus”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis
τὸ Ἀμὴν & δι’ ἡμῶν
the the Amen & by us
Paul is leaving out a verb of speaking that in many languages this sentence would need in order to be complete. You could supply this word if it would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: “the ‘Amen’ is spoken by us”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
τὸ Ἀμὴν & δι’ ἡμῶν
the the Amen & by us
If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “we say the ‘Amen’”

ἡμῶν
us
Here, us includes the Corinthian believers, so use the inclusive form of that word if your language marks that distinction.

τῷ Θεῷ πρὸς δόξαν
¬the ˱to˲_God for /the/_glory
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of glory, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “so that we glorify God” or “so that we honor God”
