πεποιθὼς αὐτὸ τοῦτο
/having/_persuaded same_‹thing› this
The phrase having been persuaded indicates a reason that Paul thanks God. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state that explicitly. Alternate translation: “I thank God because I am confident of this very thing”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ὁ ἐναρξάμενος ἐν ὑμῖν ἔργον ἀγαθὸν, ἐπιτελέσει
the_‹one› /having/_begun in you_all /a/_work good /will_be/_accomplishing_‹it›
Here, the one refers to God. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state that explicitly. Alternate translation: “that God, having begun a good work in you, will perfect it”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ὅτι ὁ ἐναρξάμενος ἐν ὑμῖν ἔργον ἀγαθὸν
that the_‹one› /having/_begun in you_all /a/_work good
The phrase a good work in you refers to both the initial conversion of the Philippian Christians and to God’s ongoing work in their lives through the Holy Spirit. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state that explicitly. Alternate translation: “that God, having begun his good work in you through your conversion and continuing it through the work of the Holy Spirit”
ὑμῖν
you_all
See how you translated the word you in Philippians 1:2.
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ἐπιτελέσει
/will_be/_accomplishing_‹it›
Here, will perfect it means that God would bring to completion the work which he began in the lives of the Philippian believers at their conversion and which he was continuing to do. If it would be clearer in your language, you could express this explicitly.
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ἡμέρας Χριστοῦ Ἰησοῦ
/the/_day ˱of˲_Christ Jesus
The phrase the day of Jesus Christ refers to the time in the future when Jesus Christ will return to judge the world and save those who believe in him. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state that explicitly. Alternate translation: “the time when Jesus Christ returns”
1:6 God, who began the good work within you: God takes the initiative to work his salvation in people (see Rom 9:16; Eph 1:3-8, 11; 2:4-10), so he can be trusted to continue his work of changing people into the likeness of his Son (see Rom 8:29; Eph 4:13, 15).

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.
