OET (OET-LV) And the Pilatos was_saying to_them:
For/Because what evil he_did?
But they exceedingly cried_out:
Execute_on_a_stake him.
OET (OET-RV) Pilate demanded, “What has he even done wrong?”

(Occurrence -1) δὲ
(Some words not found in SR-GNT: ὁ δὲ Πιλᾶτος ἔλεγεν αὐτοῖς τί γὰρ ἐποίησεν κακόν οἱ δὲ περισσῶς ἔκραξαν σταύρωσον αὐτόν)
In both places, the word But introduces what Pilate or the crowds say in contrast to what the other person or people said. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use words or phrases that introduce this kind of contrast, or you could leave But untranslated. Alternate translation: [In response, … In response,] or [However, … Yet]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion
τί γὰρ κακόν ἐποίησεν?
what for (Some words not found in SR-GNT: ὁ δὲ Πιλᾶτος ἔλεγεν αὐτοῖς τί γὰρ ἐποίησεν κακόν οἱ δὲ περισσῶς ἔκραξαν σταύρωσον αὐτόν)
Pilate is using the question form to emphasize that he thinks that Jesus has not done any evil. If you would not use the question form for this purpose in your language, you could translate this as a statement or an exclamation. Alternate translation: [Despite what you say, he did not do evil.] or [Yet he has certainly not done evil!]
Note 3 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result
τί γὰρ
what for
Here, the word For indicates that Pilate is asking for a reason why the crowd wants him to crucify Jesus. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that indicates that a question is asking for a reason for something. Alternate translation: [Why? What] or [What is your reason for that? What]
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj
κακόν
evil
Pilate is using the adjective evil as a noun to mean an evil thing. Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you could translate this word with an equivalent phrase. Alternate translation: [evil thing]
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
σταύρωσον αὐτόν
crucify him
See how you translated the phrase Crucify him in 15:13. Alternate translation: [We ask that you command some soldiers to crucify him]
15:1-15 Following the story of Peter’s denial, Mark turns back to Jesus and what happened at his trial. Pilate’s wavering under pressure fits what is known of him from other sources.

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.
