Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
ἐλεύσονται & ἡμέραι ὅταν & ἐν ἐκείνῃ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ
/will_be/_coming & days whenever & in that ¬the day
Here Jesus is using the word days to refer to a particular time. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a similar form or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “a time will come when … in that time” or “there will be a time when … at that time”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
ἀπαρθῇ & ὁ νυμφίος
/may_be/_taken_away & the bridegroom
If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. If you need to say who does the action, you could use an indefinite subject. Alternate translation: “someone will take the bridegroom away”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicitinfo
τότε & ἐν ἐκείνῃ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ
then & in that ¬the day
The expression in those days, then contains extra information that would be unnatural to express in some languages. If this is true of your language, you could shorten the expression. Alternate translation: “in those days”
2:18-22 This controversy deals with fasting, which Jesus did not practice with his disciples. The Pharisees regularly fasted two days a week, on Mondays and Thursdays (Luke 18:12), and Jews often fasted when mourning or specially seeking the Lord’s favor (Lev 16:29-31; 1 Sam 31:13; 2 Sam 1:12; 12:21-23; Ezra 8:23; Esth 4:3; Matt 6:16).
OET (OET-LV) But days will_be_coming whenever the bridegroom may_be_taken_away from them, and then they_will_be_fasting in that the day.
OET (OET-RV) But in the future, the groom will be taken away from them, and then they’ll be fasting.
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.
