OET (OET-LV) Therefore it_let_be known, to_you_all that this the salvation of_ the _god was_sent_out to_the pagans, and they will_be_hearing.
OET (OET-RV) So now let it be known to you all that the message of salvation from God has been sent out to non-Jews and they will listen.”
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / imperative3p
γνωστὸν & ἔστω
known & ˱it˲_let_be
If your language does not use the third-person imperative in this way, you could state this in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [may it be known to you]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
τοῖς ἔθνεσιν ἀπεστάλη τοῦτο τὸ σωτήριον τοῦ Θεοῦ
˱to˲_the pagans /was/_sent_out this ¬the salvation ¬the ˱of˲_God
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. If you need to say who has done the action, it is clear from the context that it was God. Alternate translation: [God has sent me to proclaim this salvation of his to the Gentiles]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
τοῦτο τὸ σωτήριον τοῦ Θεοῦ
this ¬the salvation ¬the ˱of˲_God
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of salvation, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: [this message about how God saves people]
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
αὐτοὶ & ἀκούσονται
they & /will_be/_hearing
In this context the word hear likely means “understand and obey,” since Paul is drawing a contrast with the stubborn response of many of the Jews. You may wish to make this clear in your translation. Alternate translation: [they will understand the message and obey it]
28:28 Since Jews everywhere had been given an opportunity to accept the faith (13:46; see Rom 1:16), it was now time for the Gentiles to be offered this salvation.
OET (OET-LV) Therefore it_let_be known, to_you_all that this the salvation of_ the _god was_sent_out to_the pagans, and they will_be_hearing.
OET (OET-RV) So now let it be known to you all that the message of salvation from God has been sent out to non-Jews and they will listen.”
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.
