OET (OET-LV) Therefore she_is_running and is_coming to Simōn Petros, and to the other apprentice/follower whom was_loving the Yaʸsous, and she_is_saying to_them:
They_took_away the master out_of the tomb, and we_have_ not _known where they_laid him.
OET (OET-RV) So she ran quickly and went to Simon Peter and the other intern that Yeshua loved, and told them, “They’ve taken the master’s body out of the tomb and we don’t know where they’ve put it.”
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / pastforfuture
τρέχει & ἔρχεται & λέγει
˱she˲_/is/_running & /is/_coming & ˱she˲_/is/_saying
Here John uses the present tense in past narration in order to call attention to a development in the story.
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
μαθητὴν ὃν ἐφίλει ὁ Ἰησοῦς
disciple whom /was/_loving ¬the Jesus
This phrase refers to the apostle John, who wrote this Gospel. See the discussion of this phrase in Part 1 of the Introduction to the Gospel of John and the General Notes to Chapter 13. See also how you translated similar phrases in 13:23 and 18:15.
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / 123person
αὐτοῖς
˱to˲_them
If you translated the other disciple whom Jesus loved with a first person form earlier in the verse, then you will need to use the first person plural “us” here. Alternate translation: “to us”
Note 4 topic: writing-pronouns
αὐτοῖς
˱to˲_them
If you translated the other disciple whom Jesus loved with a third person form and your language marks the dual form, then the pronoun them here would be in the dual form.
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche
τὸν Κύριον & αὐτόν
the the Lord & him
Here Mary speaks of Jesus’ dead body as if it were Jesus himself. If this might confuse your readers, you could express the meaning explicitly. Alternate translation: “the Lord’s body … it”
Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / exclusive
οὐκ οἴδαμεν ποῦ ἔθηκαν αὐτόν
not ˱we˲_/have/_known where ˱they˲_laid him
When Mary says we, she is speaking of herself and some women who came to the tomb with her. These women are mentioned in Matthew 28:1; Mark 16:1; and Luke 24:1, 10, 24. Since she is not speaking of the two disciples, we is exclusive. Your language may require you to mark this form.
20:2 Mary Magdalene ran and found Simon Peter. Her natural assumption was that someone had robbed the tomb and perhaps stolen the body—which was not an uncommon occurrence.
OET (OET-LV) Therefore she_is_running and is_coming to Simōn Petros, and to the other apprentice/follower whom was_loving the Yaʸsous, and she_is_saying to_them:
They_took_away the master out_of the tomb, and we_have_ not _known where they_laid him.
OET (OET-RV) So she ran quickly and went to Simon Peter and the other intern that Yeshua loved, and told them, “They’ve taken the master’s body out of the tomb and we don’t know where they’ve put it.”
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.
