OET (OET-LV) And they said:

OET (OET-RV) “Believe in the master Yeshua,” they replied, “then you and your household can all be saved.”
Note 1 topic: writing-pronouns
οἱ
they
The pronoun they refers to Paul and Silas. It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers. Alternate translation: “Paul and Silas”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / imperative
πίστευσον ἐπὶ τὸν Κύριον Ἰησοῦν καὶ σωθήσῃ
believe in the Lord Jesus and ˱you˲_/will_be_being/_saved
This is an imperative, but it communicates an encouraging invitation rather than a command. Use a form in your language that communicates such an invitation. Alternate translation: “If you believe in the Lord Jesus, you will be saved”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
σωθήσῃ
˱you˲_/will_be_being/_saved
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: “God will save you”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
ὁ οἶκός σου
the household ˱of˲_you
Here, your household refers to all the people who lived in the jailer’s house. Alternate translation: “all the members of your household” or “your family”
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.
