OET (OET-LV)But they were_expecting him to_be_going to_be_being_swelled_up, or to_be_falling_down suddenly dead.
But over much time, them waiting and observing nothing amiss becoming to him, having_changed_their_minds they_were_saying him to_be a_god.

OET (OET-RV)The locals were waiting for his arm to swell up or for him to fall down dead, but after a while when nothing happened they changed their minds and decided that instead, he must be a god.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

αὐτὸν μέλλειν πίμπρασθαι, ἢ καταπίπτειν ἄφνω νεκρόν

him /to_be/_going /to_be_being/_swelled_up or /to_be/_falling_down suddenly dead

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: “that the effects of the venom would begin to inflame him or that he would suddenly fall down dead” or “that the effects of the venom would make his body start to swell or that he would suddenly fall down dead”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / doublenegatives

μηδὲν ἄτοπον εἰς αὐτὸν γινόμενον

nothing amiss to him becoming

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 nothing and the negative adjective unusual. Alternate translation: “everything happening to him as usual”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

μεταβαλόμενοι

/having/_changed_their_minds

Luke is speaking as if the natives of Malta were literally turning themselves around. He means that they came to a different opinion about who Paul was. If it would be clearer in your language, you could use an expression from your own language or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “changing their minds”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / quotations

ἔλεγον αὐτὸν εἶναι θεόν

˱they˲_/were/_saying him to_be /a/_god

It may be more natural in your language to have a direct quotation here. Alternate translation: “they said, ‘He is a god!’”

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

28:3-6 The locals of Malta understood justice as a personified power or deity carrying out judgment on a criminal. When nothing bad happened to Paul, the natives understood him as having power over snakes and concluded that he himself was a god (cp. 14:11-12). In fact, Paul’s survival demonstrated God’s protection (cp. Mark 16:17-18).

OET (OET-LV)But they were_expecting him to_be_going to_be_being_swelled_up, or to_be_falling_down suddenly dead.
But over much time, them waiting and observing nothing amiss becoming to him, having_changed_their_minds they_were_saying him to_be a_god.

OET (OET-RV)The locals were waiting for his arm to swell up or for him to fall down dead, but after a while when nothing happened they changed their minds and decided that instead, he must be a god.

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.
