OET (OET-LV) Therefore the chief_priests of_the Youdaiōns were_saying to_ the _Pilatos:
Be_ not _writing:
The king of_the Youdaiōns, but that that one said:
I_am king.
of_the Youdaiōns.
OET (OET-RV) But the Jewish chief priests complained to Pilate, “Don’t write ‘The king of the Jews’, but rather ‘The one who said he was king of the Jews’.”

ἔλεγον οὖν τῷ Πειλάτῳ οἱ ἀρχιερεῖς τῶν Ἰουδαίων
/were/_saying therefore ¬the (Some words not found in SR-GNT: ἔλεγον οὖν τῷ Πιλάτῳ οἱ ἀρχιερεῖς τῶν Ἰουδαίων μὴ γράφε ὁ Βασιλεὺς τῶν Ἰουδαίων ἀλλʼ ὅτι ἐκεῖνος εἶπεν Βασιλεὺς εἰμι τῶν Ἰουδαίων)
The chief priests had to go back to Pilate’s headquarters in order to speak to him. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state that explicitly. Alternate translation: “Then the chief priests of the Jews went back to Pilate and said to him”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ἐκεῖνος
that_‹one›
The Jewish leaders say That one as a disrespectful way to refer to Jesus and to avoid saying his name. If your language has a similar way to refer to someone in an indirect but derogatory manner, you may use it here. Alternate translation: “That so-and-so”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / quotesinquotes
ἐκεῖνος εἶπεν, Βασιλεὺς εἰμι τῶν Ἰουδαίων
that_‹one› said King ˱I˲_am ˱of˲_the Jews
If the direct quotation inside a direct quotation would be confusing in your language, you could translate the second direct quotation as an indirect quotation. Alternate translation: “That one said that he is the King of the Jews”
19:19-22 Pilate posted a sign on the cross: It was customary for the Roman soldiers to provide a written public notice of the criminal’s name and crimes. Perhaps as a final act of revenge against the Jewish high council, Pilate ordered that the sign should identify Jesus of Nazareth as the King of the Jews. Jesus’ kingship was posted in three languages for the whole world to understand.

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.
