Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / yousingular
σὺ
you
Since John’s disciples are talking to Jesus, the word you in this verse is singular.
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ὁ ἐρχόμενος
the_‹one› coming
Here, John uses the phrase the one coming to refer to a special person whom God promised would come and help God’s people. People sometimes called this special person “the Messiah.” If it would be helpful to your readers, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: [the special person whom God said would come] or [the Messiah whom God said would come]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis
ἕτερον προσδοκῶμεν
˱for˲_another ˱we˲_/are/_waiting
John is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You could supply these words from earlier in the sentence if it would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: [should we expect another person to be the coming one]
11:2-19 This section begins with John the Baptist’s doubt, but it ends by exalting his faith and ministry (11:7-19). The people’s rejection of John (11:16-19) foreshadows their later rejection of Jesus.
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.
