Echo2

A fainter, low-volume reuse, carried by recurrence or thematic coherence.

1 John 2:12-14

"Atone for our sins, for your name's sake" closely matches the forgiveness of sins "for his name's sake." The name as the basis of pardon is shared.

Medium confidence
Luke 11:1-4 ?

"Deliver us, and forgive our sins, for your name's sake" combines forgiveness, deliverance, and the Name in one verse, paralleling the prayer's later petitions. Diffuse and contested, but coherent with the whole prayer.
