OET (OET-LV) Consequently you_all_are_testifying and you_all_are_consenting to_the works of_the fathers of_you_all, because they on_one_hand killed_ them _off, on_the_other_hand you_all are_building their_tombs.
OET (OET-RV) Because of that, you’re all actually admitting and agreeing to what your ancestors did, because they killed them and then you build their tombs.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
μαρτυρεῖτε καὶ συνευδοκεῖτε τοῖς ἔργοις τῶν πατέρων ὑμῶν
˱you_all˲_/are/_testifying and ˱you_all˲_/are/_consenting ˱to˲_the works ˱of˲_the fathers ˱of˲_you_all
The implication is that the Pharisees and experts in the law are not really honoring the prophets whom their ancestors killed when they build elaborate tombs for them. Rather, their ancestors began the job by actually killing them, and now they are finishing the job by burying them. Alternate translation: “you show that you approve of and agree with what your ancestors did when you bury the prophets to finish the job of killing them”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations
τῶν πατέρων ὑμῶν
˱of˲_the fathers ˱of˲_you_all
Jesus is using the term fathers in a generic sense that includes both men and women. Alternate translation: “your ancestors”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ὑμεῖς & οἰκοδομεῖτε
you_all & /are/_building_‹their_tombs›
The implication is that the Pharisees and law experts are building tombs for the prophets, as 11:47 says explicitly. Alternate translation: “you are building tombs for them”
11:48 They killed the prophets: See 1 Kgs 19:10, 14; Neh 9:26; Jer 2:30; 26:20-24. Luke portrays Jesus as “The Suffering Prophet” Luke 4:22-24.
OET (OET-LV) Consequently you_all_are_testifying and you_all_are_consenting to_the works of_the fathers of_you_all, because they on_one_hand killed_ them _off, on_the_other_hand you_all are_building their_tombs.
OET (OET-RV) Because of that, you’re all actually admitting and agreeing to what your ancestors did, because they killed them and then you build their tombs.
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.
