εἶπεν δὲ αὐτῷ, εἰ Μωϋσέως καὶ τῶν προφητῶν οὐκ ἀκούουσιν, οὐδ’ ἐάν τις ἐκ νεκρῶν ἀναστῇ, πεισθήσονται
˱he˲_said but ˱to˲_him if ˱from˲_Moses and the prophets not ˱they˲_/are/_hearing not_even if someone from /the/_dead /may/_rise_up ˱they˲_/will_be_being/_persuaded
If it would be helpful in your language, you could translate this so that there is not a quotation within a quotation. Alternate translation: “But Abraham told the rich man that if his brothers would not obey the teaching of Moses and the prophets, then they would not change their ways even if someone who had died came back to life and warned them”
Note 2 topic: grammar-connect-condition-fact
εἰ Μωϋσέως καὶ τῶν προφητῶν οὐκ ἀκούουσιν, οὐδ’ ἐάν τις ἐκ νεκρῶν ἀναστῇ, πεισθήσονται
if ˱from˲_Moses and the prophets not ˱they˲_/are/_hearing not_even if someone from /the/_dead /may/_rise_up ˱they˲_/will_be_being/_persuaded
Abraham is speaking as if this were a hypothetical possibility, but he means that it is actually true. If your language does not state something as a condition if it is certain or true, and if your readers might think that what Abraham is saying is not actually the case, then you can translate his words as an affirmative statement. Alternate translation: “Since they will not obey the teaching of Moses and the prophets, a dead person who came back to life would not be able to convince them either”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
εἰ Μωϋσέως καὶ τῶν προφητῶν οὐκ ἀκούουσιν
if ˱from˲_Moses and the prophets not ˱they˲_/are/_hearing
The term listen to is an idiom that means “obey.” See how you translated this idiom in 16:29. Alternate translation: “If they will not obey what Moses and the prophets have written”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
Μωϋσέως καὶ τῶν προφητῶν
˱from˲_Moses and the prophets
Abraham is using the names of the authors of the biblical books to refer to their writings. Alternate translation: “what Moses and the prophets have written”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / merism
Μωϋσέως καὶ τῶν προφητῶν
˱from˲_Moses and the prophets
Abraham is referring to all of God’s Word that had been written up to that time. He is using two of its major collections of writings to do so. Alternate translation: “the Scriptures”
Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
οὐδ’ ἐάν τις ἐκ νεκρῶν ἀναστῇ, πεισθήσονται
not_even if someone from /the/_dead /may/_rise_up ˱they˲_/will_be_being/_persuaded
If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this with an active form. Alternate translation: “a dead person who came back to life would not be able to convince them either”
Note 7 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj
ἐκ νεκρῶν
from /the/_dead
Abraham is using the adjective dead as a noun in order to indicate a group of people. Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you could translate this with an equivalent expression. Alternate translation: “from among the people who have died”
