Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases
δὲ
and
Here, the word Now introduces the next thing that happened. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that introduces the next event, or you could leave Now untranslated. Alternate translation: “Then,”
Note 2 topic: writing-quotations
λέγοντες
saying
Consider natural ways of introducing direct quotations in your language. Alternate translation: “and they said”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / imperative
εἰπὲ
tell
This is an imperative, but it should be translated as a polite request rather than as a command. It may be helpful to add an expression such as “please” to make this clear. Alternate translation: “We ask that you tell”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / yousingular
εἰπὲ & σῆς
tell & your
Since the disciples are speaking to Jesus, the command and the word your in this verse are singular.
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ταῦτα
these_‹things›
Here, the phrase these things refers to the events that Jesus described in the previous verse. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “the events you have spoken about” or “that destruction”
Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
τῆς σῆς παρουσίας
˱of˲_the your coming
Here the disciples imply that Jesus will come back to this world at some point in the future. They are also implying that he will leave this world before he comes back. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make some or all of those ideas more explicit. Alternate translation: “of when you are going to come back to this world” or “of when, after leaving this world, you will come back”
Note 7 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
συντελείας τοῦ αἰῶνος
/the/_completion ˱of˲_the age
Here, the phrase the end of the age refers to when the current time period will cease and a new age will begin. If your language has a way to refer to the end of the way things are now, you could use it here, or you could use a descriptive phrase. Alternate translation: “of the end of the world” or “of the moment in the future when the current way of doing things will cease”
24:3 The Greek term translated return is parousia, which can mean coming or appearing.
• end of the world (or end of the age): This expression refers to the climax and end of an epoch in salvation history (see 13:39-40, 49; also Heb 9:26). Jesus’ second coming will bring normal history to a close with decisive judgment. The disciples assumed that the destruction of the Temple and the end of history were closely connected.

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.
