Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche
οἱ Ἰουδαῖοι
the Jews
Luke is using the name of a whole group, the Jews, to refer to one part of that group, its leaders. Alternate translation: “the leaders of the Jews”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
ἐπλήσθησαν ζήλου
˱they˲_/were/_filled ˱with˲_jealousy
For emphasis, Luke is speaking of the Jewish leaders as if they were a container that jealousy filled. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the emphasis another way. Alternate translation: “became very jealous”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
τοῖς ὑπὸ Παύλου λαλουμένοις
˱against˲_the_‹things› by Paul /being/_spoken
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. Alternate translation: “the things that Paul was saying”
13:44-49 The excitement caused by the apostles’ preaching led to a mass turnout on the following week. This response provoked the jealousy of some of the Jews (cp. 4:1-2; 5:17), whose ability to win converts to Judaism (13:43) was being dwarfed by Paul’s ministry. They verbally attacked Paul and his ministry (cp. 6:8-12; 18:6; 19:9; Matt 23:13). Paul met this hostility with a bold declaration that these Jews had had their opportunity to hear the word of God, and that since they had rejected it, the offer of salvation would now be given to the Gentiles (cp. Acts 10:34-35), in accord with the Lord’s command in Scripture. The local Gentiles welcomed the Good News and many responded to it, so the Lord’s message was carried throughout that region.

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.
