Note 1 topic: translate-names
Ἑλληνιστάς
Hellenists
Hellenists was the name for Jews in the Roman Empire who spoke the Greek language and followed Greek customs. See how you translated this name in 6:1.
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
οἱ δὲ ἐπεχείρουν ἀνελεῖν αὐτόν
they but /were/_attempting /to/_kill him
The implication is that the Hellenists were not able to refute what Saul was saying about Jesus, and so they saw him as a threat and wanted to get rid of him. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state that explicitly. Alternate translation: [and because they could not refute him, they were attempting to kill him]
9:29 Again Saul debated with some Greek-speaking Jews, and again an assassination was planned (cp. 9:22-24).
OET (OET-LV) He_was_ both _speaking and was_debating with the Hellaʸnistaʸs, but they were_attempting to_kill him.
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.
