Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ὅταν & εἰσφέρωσιν ὑμᾶς
whenever & ˱they˲_/may_be/_carrying_in you_all

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
ἐπὶ τὰς συναγωγὰς
before the synagogues
Jesus is referring to local Jewish tribunals by reference to the place where they met, in synagogues. Alternate translation: “to be tried by local Jewish tribunals”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet
τὰς ἀρχὰς, καὶ τὰς ἐξουσίας
the the rulers and the authorities
These two terms mean similar things. Jesus may be using them together for emphasis. He is referring to officials of the Roman Empire. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could combine the terms into a single phrase. Alternate translation: “the officials whom the Romans have appointed”
