OET (OET-LV) And they_asked him saying:
Teacher, we_have_known that you_are_saying correctly, and you_are_teaching, and you_are_ not _receiving any_person, but you_are_teaching the way of_ the _god in truth.
OET (OET-RV) They asked him, “Teacher, we know that you say what is right, and that you teach the truth about God’s way without being influenced by people.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ἐπηρώτησαν αὐτὸν
˱they˲_asked him
It may be helpful to state explicitly that this happened after the spies whom the leaders sent arrived where Jesus was. Alternate translation: “the spies came and asked Jesus”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche
ἐπηρώτησαν αὐτὸν
˱they˲_asked him
Luke could mean that one spy spoke on behalf of the whole group. So instead of they, you could state “one of them,” as UST does.
Διδάσκαλε
Teacher
Teacher is a respectful title. You could translate it with an equivalent term that your language and culture would use.
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / exclusive
οἴδαμεν
˱we˲_/have/_known
The spies are speaking only of themselves, so we would be exclusive, if your language marks that distinction.
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
οὐ λαμβάνεις πρόσωπον
not ˱you˲_/are/_receiving /any/_person
The spies are using the term face to mean “person.” Alternate translation: “it does not matter to you who a person is”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
τὴν ὁδὸν τοῦ Θεοῦ
the way ¬the ˱of˲_God
The spies speak of how God wants people to live as if it were a way or path that people should follow. Alternate translation: “how God wants people to live”
20:21 we know that you speak and teach what is right: This flattery was meant to throw Jesus off guard (see Pss 5:9; 12:2-3; 78:36; Prov 26:28; 28:23; 29:5; Ezek 12:24).
OET (OET-LV) And they_asked him saying:
Teacher, we_have_known that you_are_saying correctly, and you_are_teaching, and you_are_ not _receiving any_person, but you_are_teaching the way of_ the _god in truth.
OET (OET-RV) They asked him, “Teacher, we know that you say what is right, and that you teach the truth about God’s way without being influenced by people.
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.
