OET (OET-LV) Now the soul of_me has_been_disturbed, and what may_I_say:
father, save me from the this hour?
But because_of this, I_came to the this hour.
OET (OET-RV) Now, I’m very troubled. What else could I say other than, ‘Father, let me avoid what’s coming.’ But it was exactly this that I came for.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion
τί εἴπω, Πάτερ, σῶσόν με ἐκ τῆς ὥρας ταύτης?
what ˱I˲_/may/_say Father save me from ¬the hour this
Here Jesus uses a rhetorical question to emphasize what he will not do. Although Jesus desires to avoid crucifixion, he chooses to be obedient to God and let himself be killed. If you would not use a rhetorical question for this purpose in your language, you could translate his words as a statement or an exclamation and communicate the emphasis in another way. Alternate translation: [I will not say, ‘Father, save me from this hour!’]
Note 2 topic: guidelines-sonofgodprinciples
Πάτερ
Father
Father is an important title for God.
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
τῆς ὥρας ταύτης & τὴν ὥραν ταύτην
¬the hour this & ¬the hour this
In this verse this hour refers to the time when Jesus would suffer and die on the cross. See how you translated hour in 12:23.
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
διὰ τοῦτο
because_of this
Here, this reason refers to Jesus’ suffering and death on the cross. If this might confuse your readers, you could express the meaning explicitly. Alternate translation: [in order to suffer and die,] or
12:27 my soul is deeply troubled: John used the same term (Greek tarassō) to describe Jesus’ strong emotion of agony before Lazarus’ tomb (11:33; also 13:21). When Jesus stood before death, he could not be impassive. Jesus experienced genuine anguish, yet he remained strong in obedience to the Father’s will (5:19-23; 6:37; 8:29, 38; 14:31).

OET (OET-RV) Now, I’m very troubled. What else could I say other than, ‘Father, let me avoid what’s coming.’ But it was exactly this that I came for.
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.
