OET (OET-LV) But I_will_be_showing to_you_all whom you_may_be_afraid:
be_afraid of_the one after the time to_kill_off, having authority to_throw_in him into the geenna, yes, I_am_saying to_you_all, be_fearing this one.
OET (OET-RV) But I’ll tell you who you should be afraid of: Be afraid of the one who has the authority to throw you into hell after you’re dead—yes, that’s who you should be afraid of.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
φοβήθητε τὸν & ἔχοντα ἐξουσίαν
/be/_afraid ˱of˲_the_‹one› & having authority
The expression the one refers to God. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state that explicitly. Alternate translation: “Fear God, who … has authority” or “Fear God, because he … has authority”
μετὰ τὸ ἀποκτεῖναι, ἔχοντα ἐξουσίαν
after the_‹time› /to/_kill_off having authority
Jesus is not suggesting that God actively kills each person. Alternate translation: “who, after a person dies, has authority”
Note 2 topic: translate-names
Γέενναν
Gehenna
Gehenna is the Greek name for a place, the Valley of Hinnom just outside Jerusalem.
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
Γέενναν
Gehenna
Jesus uses the name of this place, where refuse was thrown and fires burned continually, to mean hell.
12:5 hell (Greek Gehenna): The Valley of Hinnom was a ravine along the southwestern side of Jerusalem. It became a metaphor for hell because Israelites had offered their children as sacrifices there (Jer 32:35) and later used it as a place to burn garbage (Jer 19:2, 10-13). Jesus’ disciples should never be afraid of enemies who can only take away their life on earth. Instead, they should fear God, who can give eternal punishment.

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.
