OET (OET-LV) Then the apprentices/followers having_approached by themselves to_ the _Yaʸsous said:
for_ Why _reason we were_ not _able to_throw_ it _out?
OET (OET-RV) Later the apprentices went by themselves to Yeshua and asked him how come they hadn’t been able to drive away the demon.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / quotations
εἶπον, διὰ τί ἡμεῖς οὐκ ἠδυνήθημεν ἐκβαλεῖν αὐτό?
said for_reason why we not /were/_able /to/_cast_out it
It may be more natural in your language to have an indirect quotation here. Alternate translation: “asked why they were not able to cast the demon out.”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / exclusive
ἡμεῖς
we
By we, the speaker means himself and the rest of the disciples but not Jesus, so use the exclusive form of that word in your translation if your language marks that distinction.
Note 3 topic: writing-pronouns
αὐτό
it
The pronoun it refers to the demon which Jesus cast out of the boy. If it would be helpful in your language, you could refer to the demon more directly. Alternate translation: “the demon”

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.
