Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result
ἵνα
in_order_that
The connecting phrase so that introduces a reason-result relationship. The reason is that Paul prays for the Ephesians. The result is that God would enlighten the Ephesians about all that he has done for them through Christ. Use a phrase in your language that connects a reason to a result.
πνεῦμα σοφίας καὶ ἀποκαλύψεως, ἐν ἐπιγνώσει αὐτοῦ
/the/_spirit ˱of˲_wisdom and revelation in /the/_knowledge ˱of˲_him
Alternate translation: “spiritual wisdom to understand his revelation”
1:17 spiritual wisdom (or the Spirit of wisdom): The word spirit can refer either to the Holy Spirit or to the human spirit.
• Knowledge of God is to know God personally and experientially, not just to know about him intellectually (see John 17:3).

OET (OET-RV) asking the God of our master Yeshua the messiah to give you spiritual wisdom and to reveal the knowledge about him.
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Greek words that they’re translated from.
