Here, which refers to both this letter and the previous letter that Peter had written to this group of believers. If it would be helpful in your language, you could start a new sentence to say this explicitly. Alternate translation: “In both of these letters”

διεγείρω ὑμῶν ἐν ὑπομνήσει τὴν εἰλικρινῆ διάνοιαν

˱I˲_/am/_awaking ˱of˲_you_all in remembrance the sincere mind

Here, Peter uses arouse, as if the minds of his readers are asleep, to refer to causing his readers to think about these things. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this metaphor by translating this plainly. See how you translated this term in 1:13. Alternate translation: “to remind your sincere mind of these things so that you will think about them”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

ἐν ὑπομνήσει

in in remembrance

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ὑμῶν & τὴν εἰλικρινῆ διάνοιαν

˱of˲_you_all & the sincere mind

Although the word pure usually refers to something being uncontaminated or not mixed with something else, Peter uses it here to indicate that his readers have minds which have not been deceived by the false teachers. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state this metaphor plainly. Alternate translation: “your undeceived minds”
