OET (OET-LV) Yaʸsous answered to_him:
If I_spoke wrongly, testify concerning the evil, but if rightly, why are_you_beating me?
OET (OET-RV) But Yeshua responded, “If I said anything wrong, tell me my error. But if it was true, why are you hitting me?”
μαρτύρησον περὶ τοῦ κακοῦ
testify concerning the evil
Alternate translation: “tell me what I said that was wrong”
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion
εἰ δὲ καλῶς, τί με δέρεις?
if if but rightly why me ˱you˲_/are/_beating
Jesus is using the form of a question to add emphasis to what he is saying. If you would not use a rhetorical question for this purpose in your language, you could translate his words as a statement or an exclamation and communicate the emphasis in another way. Alternate translation: “but if rightly, you should not strike me!”
18:1-40 After completing his farewell in the upper room (13:31–17:26), Jesus left the city and entered a garden just east of Jerusalem to pray. Here he was arrested, taken under guard into the city, and interrogated by the Jewish leaders. The climactic “time” that Jesus referred to repeatedly throughout the Gospel (see 2:4; see also study note on 12:23) was now at hand.

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.
