‏ Hebrews 13:21

 Make you perfect ( καταρτισα ). First aorist active optative of  καταρτιζω, to equip, as in 10:5. A wish for the future. See 1Co 1:10; 2Co 13:11; 2Ti 3:17.

 Working in us ( ποιων εν εμιν ). "Doing in us." Some MSS. read "in you."

 Well-pleasing ( ευαρεστον ). Compound adjective ( ευ, αρεστος ). Usually with the dative (Ro 12:2), here with  ενωπιον αυτου more like the Hebrew. This is one of the noblest doxologies in the N.T.
