OET (OET-LV) But Paulos called with_a_ loud _voice saying:
You_may_do nothing harm to_yourself, because/for we_are all here.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / exclusive
ἐσμεν
˱we˲_are
By we, Paul means himself and the other prisoners but not the jailer, so use the exclusive form of that word in your translation if your language marks that distinction.
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / imperative
μηδὲν πράξῃς σεαυτῷ κακόν
nothing ˱you˲_/may/_do ˱to˲_yourself harm
This is an imperative, but it communicates an urgent request rather than a command. Use a form in your language that communicates such a request. It may be helpful to add an expression such as “please” to make this clear. Alternate translation: “Please do not hurt yourself”
16:13-36 Luke gives his readers cameos of three lives touched by the Good News in Philippi: a wealthy woman (16:14-15), an exploited slave girl (16:16-21), and a middle-class officer (16:23-36).

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.
