OET (OET-LV) And the policemen reported the these messages to_the officers.
And they_were_afraid having_heard that they_are Ɽōmaios.

OET (OET-RV) So the officials reported this back to the magistrates, and they were quite afraid when they heard that Paul and Silas were Roman citizens.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

τὰ ῥήματα ταῦτα

¬the words these

Luke is using the term words to mean what Paul said to the officers by using words. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [what Paul had said]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἐφοβήθησαν & ἀκούσαντες ὅτι Ῥωμαῖοί εἰσιν

˱they˲_˓were˒_afraid & ˓having˒_heard that Romans ˱they˲_are

Roman citizenship provided freedom from torture and the right to a fair trial. So the implication is that the magistrates were terrified that more important Roman authorities might learn how they had mistreated Paul and Silas. You can include this information if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [they were terrified when they heard that they were Roman citizens, because as magistrates they were supposed to make sure that citizens were not tortured and received fair trials, and they were concerned that more important authorities would punish them for the way they had treated Paul and Silas]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / quotations

ἐφοβήθησαν & ἀκούσαντες ὅτι Ῥωμαῖοί εἰσιν

˱they˲_˓were˒_afraid & ˓having˒_heard that Romans ˱they˲_are

It may be more natural in your language to have a direct quotation here. Alternate translation: [they were terrified when they heard, “They are Romans!”]

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

16:37-39 Paul and Silas were both Roman citizens, so the beating and imprisonment (16:22-24) had been illegal. After the city officials learned of this, they were justifiably alarmed because they had committed a crime against Rome.
• Let them come themselves to release us: Paul made use of his rights as a Roman citizen in order to clear his name and ensure that no disrepute would attach to the Christian message or those who accepted it. Luke intended to show that Christianity should enjoy the same status as Judaism in the Roman Empire as a permitted religion—the Christian faith was compatible with the life of a Roman citizen. Accordingly, it was important to note that Paul made use of his rights as a Roman citizen (cp. 22:25-27) and was ready to use the privileges of citizenship to advance the cause of Christ in a hostile world.

OET (OET-LV) And the policemen reported the these messages to_the officers.
And they_were_afraid having_heard that they_are Ɽōmaios.

OET (OET-RV) So the officials reported this back to the magistrates, and they were quite afraid when they heard that Paul and Silas were Roman citizens.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
