OET (OET-LV) And Agrippas said to the Faʸstos:
I_was_wishing also myself to_hear from_the man.
Tomorrow, he_is_saying:
you_will_be_hearing from_him.
OET (OET-RV) “I’d quite like to hear him myself,” Agrippa said.
¶ “Well, tomorrow,” replied Festus, “you’ll be able to hear from him.”
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rpronouns
ἐβουλόμην καὶ αὐτὸς τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ἀκοῦσαι
˱I˲_/was/_wishing also myself ˱from˲_the man /to/_hear
Agrippa is using the reflexive pronoun myself for emphasis. It may be more natural in your language to express this emphasis in another way. Alternate translation: “I too would certainly want to hear this man”
Note 2 topic: translate-tense
φησίν
˱he˲_/is/_saying
To call attention to a development in the story, here Luke uses the present tense in past narration. If it would not be natural to do that in your language, you could use the past tense in your translation. It may be helpful to start a new sentence here. Alternate translation: “he said”
25:13-22 Festus discussed Paul’s case with Herod Agrippa II (ruled AD 50–100), who had come to Caesarea to make a courtesy call on the new governor.

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.
