OET (OET-LV) The Youdaiōns answered and said to_him, are_ we not rightly _saying that you are a_from_Samareia/(Shomrōn), and you_are_having a_demon?

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche
οἱ Ἰουδαῖοι
the Jews
Here, The Jews refers to the Jewish leaders. See how you translated this term in 1:19.
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion
οὐ καλῶς λέγομεν ἡμεῖς ὅτι Σαμαρείτης εἶ σὺ, καὶ δαιμόνιον ἔχεις?
not rightly /are/_saying we that /a/_Samaritan are you and /a/_demon ˱you˲_/are/_having
The Jews are using a rhetorical question here to accuse Jesus and to dishonor him. 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 certainly say rightly that you are a Samaritan and have a demon!”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
Σαμαρείτης εἶ σὺ
/a/_Samaritan are you
Most Jewish people in Jesus’ time hated and despised Samaritans, so his Jewish opponents here called Jesus a Samaritan in order to insult him. Use the natural form in your language to indicate that this is an insult. Alternate translation: “you are one of those accursed Samaritans” or “you are an enemy Samaritan”
δαιμόνιον ἔχεις
/a/_demon ˱you˲_/are/_having
See how you translated this phrase in 7:20. Alternate translation: “a demon is inside of you!” or “you must be under the control of a demon!”
8:12-59 The debate about whether or not Jesus is the Messiah continues from 7:52. Jesus was still at the Festival of Shelters in Jerusalem. During the festival, the conflicts Jesus had endured in ch 7 continued and intensified.
OET (OET-LV) The Youdaiōns answered and said to_him, are_ we not rightly _saying that you are a_from_Samareia/(Shomrōn), and you_are_having a_demon?
OET (OET-RV) The Jewish leaders asked, “Aren’t we right in saying that you’re from Samaria and that you have a demon?”
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.
