us ˱we˲_/are_being/_persuaded & ˱we˲_/are/_having & /to_be_being/_conducted
Here, the words us, we, and ourselves do not include the audience. They could refer to: (1) the author and those working with him. Alternate translation: “us who proclaim the good news … we are persuaded … we have … to conduct ourselves” (2) the author and other people who lead the audience. Alternate translation: “us leaders … we are persuaded … we have … to conduct ourselves” (3) just the author. Alternate translation: “me … I am persuaded … I have … to conduct myself”

γὰρ
for
Here, the word for could introduce: (1) a reason why he can ask them to pray for him. Alternate translation: “which we request because” (2) another statement that is loosely connected. Alternate translation: “as”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
πειθόμεθα
˱we˲_/are_being/_persuaded
If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. The author uses the passive form here to focus on we who are persuaded rather than on whatever persuaded them. Alternate translation: “we are confident” or “we know”
Note 4 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result
θέλοντες
wanting
Here, the word desiring could introduce: (1) the reason why they are persuaded. Alternate translation: “because we desire” (2) what they do as people with a good conscience. Alternate translation: “so we desire”
ἐν πᾶσιν
in all_‹things›
Here, the phrase in all could refer to: (1) every act or deed. Alternate translation: “in all we do” (2) every person. Alternate translation: “toward all people”
13:7-19 This middle section of Ch 13 is bracketed by references to the community’s leaders (13:7, 17-19). Rabbis often used this technique, called inclusio, in which similar words or phrases were used to mark the beginning and ending of a unit, much as we would use a subheading in a book today. This section hints at several difficulties in the church to which Hebrews was originally addressed.

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.
