˱you_all˲_/were/_released from Christ whoever in /the/_law /are_being/_justified
You here refers to whoever is being justified by the law. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this more explicit. Alternate translation: [You who are being justified by the law were cut off from Christ]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
κατηργήθητε & δικαιοῦσθε
˱you_all˲_/were/_released & /are_being/_justified
If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you could state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [You cut yourselves off … is justifying oneself]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
κατηργήθητε ἀπὸ Χριστοῦ
˱you_all˲_/were/_released from Christ
Here, cut off refers to being separated from Christ. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [You have ended your relationship with Christ] or [You are separated from Christ]
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
οἵτινες ἐν νόμῳ δικαιοῦσθε
whoever in /the/_law /are_being/_justified
Paul implies that these people were trying to be justified by obeying the law, which is impossible. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: [whoever attempts to be justified by obeying the law]
Note 5 topic: grammar-collectivenouns

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
τῆς χάριτος ἐξεπέσατε
˱from˲_the grace ˱you_all˲_fell_from
Here Paul speaks of grace as if it were something that a person could fall away from. He means that people who are trying to save themselves by obeying the law do not receive God’s grace. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [you have rejected the grace of God] or [God will no longer be gracious to you]
5:4 People who think circumcision is necessary for salvation are putting faith in the law and in themselves, not in Christ. Such people are cut off from Christ, outside of his grace (cp. Rom 5:2); they are under the judgment of the law. They have fallen away from the benefits of God’s grace (cp. Gal 1:6; 1 Pet 5:12).

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.
