OET (OET-LV) Therefore indeed the ones having_come_together, were_asking him saying:
master, if at the this time, are_you_restoring the kingdom the to_Israaʸl/(Yisərāʼēl)?
OET (OET-RV) So when they were next gathered together, they asked him, “Master, is this now the time when you’ll be restoring the kingdom to Israel?”[fn]
1:6 At the time of asking, Israelis were burdened under the rule and taxes of the Roman occupiers.
Note 1 topic: writing-pronouns
οἱ μὲν οὖν συνελθόντες, ἠρώτων αὐτὸν
the_‹ones› indeed therefore /having/_come_together /were/_asking him
In the first instance, they describes Jesus and the apostles, while in the second instance, they refers to the apostles. (Other disciples could have been present on this occasion, but the instructions that Jesus gives about being “witnesses” in 1:8 apply specifically to the apostles, so it would be good to name them directly.) Alternate translation: “When the apostles were together with Jesus, the apostles were asking him”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
εἰ ἐν τῷ χρόνῳ τούτῳ, ἀποκαθιστάνεις τὴν βασιλείαν τῷ Ἰσραήλ
¬if at ¬the time this ˱you˲_/are/_restoring the kingdom ¬the ˱to˲_Israel
This is an idiomatic way of asking a question. Alternate translation: “are you restoring the kingdom to Israel at this time” or “will you now restore the kingdom to Israel”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
εἰ & ἀποκαθιστάνεις τὴν βασιλείαν τῷ Ἰσραήλ
¬if & ˱you˲_/are/_restoring the kingdom ¬the ˱to˲_Israel
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea behind the word kingdom, you could express the same idea with a noun such as “king.” Alternate translation: “are you going to give Israel its own king again” or “are you going to become the restored king of Israel”
1:6-11 Jesus’ ascent into heaven (see also Luke 24:50-53) took place on the Mount of Olives (Acts 1:12; Luke 24:50). It was Jesus’ last physical appearance—he was taken into heaven, where he will remain “until the time for the final restoration of all things” (Acts 3:21).

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Greek words that they’re translated from.
