Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
ἀδελφοὺς
/the/_brothers
Luke is using the term brothers to mean people who share the same faith. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “some believers”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
παρεκλήθημεν
˱we˲_/were/_implored
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: “they begged us”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / go
οὕτως εἰς τὴν Ῥώμην ἤλθαμεν
thus to ¬the Rome ˱we˲_came
Since Luke describes in the next verse how believers from Rome came some distance to meet Paul and his companions on their way to Rome, by thus he means that after staying with the believers in Puetoli for seven days, they continued on their way to Rome. In a context such as this, your language might say “came” instead of went. Alternate translation: “we came near Rome”
28:11-16 Luke, himself present on this journey (see study note on 27:1–28:16), recorded Paul’s itinerary from Malta to Rome with great geographical detail.

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.
