OET (OET-LV) Thōmas is_saying to_him:
master, we_have_ not _known where you_are_going, how are_we_being_able to_have_known the way?
OET (OET-RV) “Master,” Thomas asked, “we don’t even know where you’re going, let alone how to get there.”
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / pastforfuture
λέγει
/is/_saying
Here John uses the present tense in past narration in order to call attention to a development in the story.
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion
πῶς δυνάμεθα τὴν ὁδὸν εἰδέναι?
how ˱we˲_/are/_being_able the way /to_have/_known
Thomas is using a rhetorical question here to emphasize the truth of what he is saying. 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: [We surely do not know the way!]
14:1-31 Jesus provided answers to his disciples’ many spoken and unspoken concerns.

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.
