OET (OET-RV)And I’m fully aware that obeying his commands leads to living forever. Therefore whenever I speak, I just say whatever the father said to me.

OET-LVAnd I_have_known that the command of_him is eternal life.
Therefore what I am_speaking, as the father has_said to_me, thus I_am_speaking.

SR-GNTΚαὶ οἶδα ὅτι ἐντολὴ αὐτοῦ ζωὴ αἰώνιός ἐστιν. οὖν ἐγὼ λαλῶ, καθὼς εἴρηκέν μοι Πατήρ, οὕτως λαλῶ.”

TSNTyndale Study Notes:

12:1-50 Two stories build simultaneously. A growing number of people are praising Jesus (this climaxes in 12:12-13), and the authorities are increasingly determined to arrest him and put him to death.
• John records three events that occurred just days prior to Passover (12:1-11, 12-19, 20-36). Then he explains why most of the people refused to believe and details Jesus’ final public appeal (12:37-50).


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

οἶδα, ὅτι ἡ ἐντολὴ αὐτοῦ

˱I˲_/have/_known that the commandment ˱of˲_him

Here, his command refers to the teachings that God commanded Jesus to speak, as mentioned in the previous verse. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: “I know that what he commanded me to speak”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἡ ἐντολὴ αὐτοῦ ζωὴ αἰώνιός ἐστιν

the commandment ˱of˲_him life eternal is

This phrase means that what God commanded Jesus to say gives eternal life to those who believe it. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could express the meaning explicitly. Alternate translation: “his command gives eternal life”
