Here's a rookie's take on this phrase:

"Wherefore also I myself all the more rejoice with (you), while expecting to
be saved."

...W + hEMAUTWi = I myself
MALLON = all the more
SUG = with (you) or jointly + CAIRW = rejoice

ELPIZWN = (confident) expectation, [adverbial ptc.]


That's my take,

Mark Wilson
