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”
