OET (OET-RV) Yeshua asked, “How can you all not understand what’s going on right in front of you!”

Jesus is using the question form to rebuke his disciples. If you would not use the question form for this purpose in your language, you could translate this as a statement or an exclamation. See how you expressed the similar rhetorical question in 8:17. Alternate translation: “You should understand by now.” or “I am disappointed that you do not yet understand!”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
πῶς οὔπω συνίετε?
how not_yet ˱you_all˲_/are/_understanding
Here Jesus is implying that the disciples do not understand who Jesus is and what he can do. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. See how you expressed the similar idea in 8:17. Alternate translation: “How do you not yet understand who I am and what I can do”
8:21 Don’t you understand yet? This question implies a time when they would truly understand. Mark’s readers knew that Jesus’ resurrection would give the disciples understanding of Jesus’ identity and power (see, e.g., Acts 4:23-31).
OET (OET-RV) Yeshua asked, “How can you all not understand what’s going on right in front of you!”
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.
