OET (OET-LV) And by_no_means they_may_ not _follow after_a_stranger, but they_will_be_fleeing from him, because they_have_ not _known the voice of_ the _strangers.
OET (OET-RV) They would never follow a stranger because they wouldn’t know his voice, in fact they’d run away from him.”

τῶν ἀλλοτρίων τὴν φωνήν
¬the ˱of˲_strangers the voice
Here, the word voice is singular in form, but it refers to all of the strangers’ voices as a group. If your language does not use singular nouns in that way, you can use a different expression. Alternate translation: “the voices of strangers”
10:1-42 Chapter 10 continues the series of festival sermons (see study note on 5:1–10:42). Here, the setting is Hanukkah (the Festival of Dedication), the timing of which is crucial to understanding the story (see study note on 10:22).

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.
