Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
τὴν Βασιλείαν τοῦ Θεοῦ
the Kingdom ¬the ˱of˲_God
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of a kingdom, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “how God had begun to rule as king”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
μετὰ πάσης παρρησίας ἀκωλύτως
with all boldness unhinderedly
If your language does not use abstract nouns for the ideas of boldness and hindrance, you could express the same ideas in other ways. Alternate translation: “very boldly, with no one hindering him”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / hyperbole
μετὰ πάσης παρρησίας
with all boldness
Luke says all here as a generalization for emphasis. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a different way to express the emphasis.
28:31 Despite being under house arrest (28:16), Paul boldly proclaimed the Kingdom message.
• And no one tried to stop him (Greek akōlutōs, “without hindrance”): This single word in Greek is the last word of the book of Acts and one of the keys to its meaning: God’s word cannot be chained, even when its messengers are (2 Tim 2:9; see Phil 1:12-14). Acts is the story of an unhindered message of Good News, available to all people throughout the world, whether Jew, Gentile, proselyte, rich, or poor. The mission of proclaiming this message is accomplished in the power of the Spirit (Acts 1:8); it embraces Jews (3:1–5:42), Samaritans (8:1-25), converts to Judaism (2:11; 13:43), “God-fearers” (8:26-40; 9:32–11:18), and Gentiles (13:1–28:28).
• Luke ends his account with Paul still under house arrest in Rome (about AD 60–62). Paul was later released and traveled freely. According to tradition, Paul was imprisoned again in Rome about AD 64 and was martyred there during Nero’s persecution of believers.

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.
