OET (OET-LV) And when we_heard these things, both we and the of_the_locals were_imploring, which him not to_be_going_up to Hierousalaʸm/(Yərūshālayim).
OET (OET-RV) When we heard this described, both we and the locals begged Paul not to go to Yerusalem
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj
οἱ ἐντόπιοι
the ˱of˲_/the/_locals
Luke is using the adjective locals as a noun to mean the believers who lived in that local area, that is, Caesarea. Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you could translate this word with an equivalent phrase. Alternate translation: “the believers who lived in Caesarea”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
παρεκαλοῦμεν ἡμεῖς
/were/_imploring we
Luke means implicitly that this urging included weeping over what would happen to Paul if he went to Jerusalem, as the next verse indicates. You can include this information here if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: “were weeping and urging”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
τοῦ μὴ ἀναβαίνειν & εἰς Ἰερουσαλήμ
¬which not /to_be/_going_up & to Jerusalem
Luke says to go up because that was the customary way of speaking about traveling to Jerusalem, since that city is up on a mountain. Caesarea is lower in elevation. Use a natural way in your language of referring to traveling to a higher elevation.
21:1-18 This “we” passage (see study notes on 16:10; 20:5-15) covers Paul’s journey from Miletus to Jerusalem at the close of the third missionary journey.

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.
