οἱ Ἰουδαῖοι
the Jews
See how you translated the Jews in 8:31. Alternate translation: [the Judeans] or [the Jewish leaders]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion
πεντήκοντα ἔτη οὔπω ἔχεις, καὶ Ἀβραὰμ ἑώρακας?
fifty years not_yet ˱you˲_/are/_having and Abraham ˱you˲_/have/_seen
Here, the Jews opposing Jesus are using this question to express their shock that Jesus claims to have seen Abraham. If you would not use a rhetorical question for this purpose in your language, you could translate these words as a statement or an exclamation and communicate the emphasis in another way. Alternate translation: [You are less than fifty years old! You could not possibly have seen Abraham!]
8:57 You aren’t even fifty years old: The Jewish leaders misunderstood Jesus: He was talking about his divine pre-existence, not his physical age.

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.
