OET-LV Therefore if on_one_hand I_am_doing_wrong and I_have_done anything worthy of_death, I_am_ not _refusing which to_die_off, on_the_other_hand if nothing is true of_which these are_accusing against_me, no_one is_able to_grant me to_them.
I_am_Appealing to_Kaisar.
OET (OET-RV) If I had done anything wrong, anything worthy of the death sentence, then I’m ready to accept death. On the other hand, if none of their accusations are true, no one can hand me over to them. I appeal to Kaisar.”

οὐ παραιτοῦμαι τὸ ἀποθανεῖν
(Some words not found in SR-GNT: εἰ μέν Οὖν ἀδικῶ καί ἄξιον θανάτου πέπραχα τὶ οὒ παραιτοῦμαι τό ἀποθανεῖν εἰ δέ οὐδέν ἐστίν ὧν οὗτοι κατηγοροῦσιν μού οὐδείς μέ δύναται αὐτοῖς χαρίσασθαι Καίσαρα Ἐπικαλοῦμαι)
If it would be clearer in your language, you could use a positive expression to translate this double negative that consists of the negative particle not and the negative verb refuse. Alternate translation: [I am willing to die]

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.
