OET (OET-LV) The Yaʸsous/(Yəhōshūˊa) said to_them:
If the god was the_father of_you_all, you_all_ would _were_loving me, because/for I came_out from the god and am_coming, because/for and_not I_have_come of myself, but that one sent_ me _out.
OET (OET-RV) “If God was your father you all would be loving me,” Yeshua responded, “because I came from God and for God. I didn’t just come by myself, but God sent me here.
Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-condition-contrary
εἰ ὁ Θεὸς Πατὴρ ὑμῶν ἦν, ἠγαπᾶτε ἂν ἐμέ
if ¬the God /the/_Father ˱of˲_you_all was ˱you_all˲_/were/_loving would me
Jesus is making a conditional statement that sounds hypothetical, but he already knows that the condition is not true. Jesus knows that the Jews speaking to him here do not love him and are not true followers of God. Use a natural form in your language for introducing a condition that the speaker believes is not true. Alternate translation: “God is surely not your father, because if he were, you would love me”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ἀπ’ ἐμαυτοῦ ἐλήλυθα
of myself ˱I˲_/have/_come
Here, from is used to indicate Jesus’ origin. He could only have authority if he came from God. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: “have I come on my own authority”
Note 3 topic: writing-pronouns
ἐκεῖνός
that_‹one›
Here, that one refers to God the Father. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: “God”
8:12-59 The debate about whether or not Jesus is the Messiah continues from 7:52. Jesus was still at the Festival of Shelters in Jerusalem. During the festival, the conflicts Jesus had endured in ch 7 continued and intensified.

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.
