(Some words not found in SR-GNT: ἐφώνησαν Οὖν τόν ἄνθρωπον ἐκ δευτέρου ὅς ἦν τυφλός καί εἶπαν αὐτῷ Δός δόξαν τῷ Θεῷ ἡμεῖς οἴδαμεν ὅτι οὗτος ὁ ἄνθρωπος ἁμαρτωλός ἐστίν)

This is an idiom that Jewish people used when commanding someone to take an oath. It first appears in [Joshua 7:19](../jos/07/19.md) when Joshua orders Achan to confess his sin. If this might confuse your readers, you could use an equivalent idiom or use plain language. Alternate translation: [Speak the truth before God]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

οὗτος ὁ ἄνθρωπος

this ¬the man

Here, John records the Jewish leaders saying this man as a disrespectful way to refer to Jesus and to avoid saying his name. If your language has a similar way to refer to someone in an indirect but derogatory manner, you may use it here. Alternate translation: [this so-and-so]
