OET (OET-LV) And having_arrived to him, the men said:
Yōannaʸs the immerser sent_ us _out to you saying:
Are you the one coming or may_we_be_waiting for another?
OET (OET-RV) So when they got to Yeshua, the two men told him, “Yohan-the-immerser sent us here to ask you if you’re the promised one, or should we wait for someone else?”
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / quotesinquotes
οἱ ἄνδρες εἶπαν, Ἰωάννης ὁ Βαπτιστὴς ἀπέστειλεν ἡμᾶς πρὸς σὲ λέγων, σὺ εἶ ὁ ἐρχόμενος ἢ ἄλλον προσδοκῶμεν?
the men said John the Baptist sent_out us to you saying you are the_‹one› coming or another ˱we˲_˓may_be˒_waiting_‹for›
If it would be helpful in your language, you could translate this so that there is not a quotation within a quotation. Alternate translation: [the men told Jesus that John the Baptist had sent them to him to ask, “Are you the one who is coming, or should we expect someone else] or [the men said, “John the Baptist has sent us to you to ask if you are the one who is coming, or whether we should expect someone else.”]
λέγων
saying
Alternate translation: [to ask]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / you
σὺ
you
Since this question is for Jesus alone, you is singular.
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ὁ ἐρχόμενος
the the_‹one› coming
This expression means “the Messiah.” If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state that explicitly. Alternate translation: [the Messiah]
7:18-23 The disciples of John the Baptist: See study note on 5:33. John was now in prison (3:19-20), wondering whether Jesus was truly the Messiah, since he did not act like a powerful warrior–king who would overthrow the Romans. In response, Jesus defined his messianic role.

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.
