OET (OET-LV) And this is the eternal life, that they_may_be_knowing you, the only true god, and Yaʸsous chosen_one/messiah whom you_sent_out.
OET (OET-RV) And eternal life means knowing you, the only true God, and knowing me—Yeshua the messiah that you sent.
αὕτη δέ ἐστιν ἡ αἰώνιος ζωὴ
this and is ¬the eternal life
The clause could mean: (1) the rest of the verse describes what eternal life is. Alternate translation: [Now this is what it means to have eternal life] (2) the rest of the verse describes the means by which one receives eternal life. Alternate translation: [Now this is how people live forever]

ὃν ἀπέστειλας, Ἰησοῦν Χριστόν
whom ˱you˲_sent_out Jesus Christ
Jesus uses the one you sent and Jesus Christ to refer to himself in the third person. If it would be helpful in your language, you could translate this in the first person, as in the UST.
17:3 to know you: The Hebrew idea of knowing encompassed experience and intimacy, which for Christians means love for God and obedience to him.
• sent to earth: Jesus originated in heaven and was returning there (17:5), so he exercises divine authority as the agent of God.

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.
