OET (OET-LV) And there_was much grumbling concerning him among the crowds.
The ones on_one_hand were_saying, that He_is good, on_the_other_hand others were_saying:
No, but he_is_deceiving the crowd.
OET (OET-RV) Even among the crowds there was a lot of quiet banter with some saying that Yeshua is a good man and others complaining that he was misleading the people.

γογγυσμὸς
grumbling
Although the word translated murmuring usually refers to grumbling or complaining, here it refers to speaking quietly, without a negative meaning. Some people in the crowd were discussing who Jesus was and didn’t want the religious leaders to hear them. If your word for murmuring only has a negative connotation in your language, use a different neutral expression. Alternate translation: “quiet discussion” or “whispering”
Note 2 topic: grammar-collectivenouns
τοῖς ὄχλοις & τὸν ὄχλον
the crowds & the crowd
Here, crowds refers to several different groups of people, while crowd refers to a group of people in general. See how you translated crowd in 5:13. Alternate translation: “the groups of people … the group of people”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
πλανᾷ τὸν ὄχλον
˱he˲_/is/_deceiving the crowd
Here the people use leads astray to refer to persuading someone to believe something that is not true. If this might confuse your readers, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “he misleads the crowd”
7:1-52 This chapter is another account of Jesus during a Jewish festival, the Festival of Shelters. Jesus used elements of the festival to reveal his true identity to his Jewish compatriots and to show that he had fulfilled the festival’s essential meaning (see 7:37-39; 8:12).

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Greek words that they’re translated from.
