Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
αὕτη ἐστὶν ἡ παρρησία ἣν ἔχομεν πρὸς αὐτόν
this is the confidence that ˱we˲_/are/_having toward him
If it would be helpful to your readers, as in 3:21 you could state explicitly what this confidence applies to in light of what John says in the rest of this sentence. Alternate translation: “we can be confident of this as we pray to God”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
αὕτη ἐστὶν ἡ παρρησία ἣν ἔχομεν πρὸς αὐτόν
this is the confidence that ˱we˲_/are/_having toward him
If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the idea behind the abstract noun confidence with an adjective such as “confident.” Alternate translation: “we can be confident of this as we pray to God”
Note 3 topic: writing-pronouns
αὕτη
this
The pronoun this refers to what John is about to say in the rest of the verse. It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers. Alternate translation: “I will tell you what”
Note 4 topic: writing-pronouns
αὐτόν & αὐτοῦ & ἀκούει
him & ˱of˲_him & (Some words not found in SR-GNT: καὶ αὕτη ἐστὶν ἡ παρρησία ἣν ἔχομεν πρὸς αὐτόν ὅτι ἐάν τι αἰτώμεθα κατὰ τὸ θέλημα αὐτοῦ ἀκούει ἡμῶν)
The pronouns him, his, and he refer to God in this verse. Consider whether it might be helpful to your readers or more natural in your language to use the name “God” in one or more of these instances.
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
ἀκούει ἡμῶν
˱he˲_/is/_hearing ˱from˲_us
As in 4:5, the word listens is an idiom. However, the meaning here is different than the meaning there, which was, “is persuaded by.” Rather, here it refers to God being willing to grant what we ask. Alternate translation: “he is willing to give it to us”
