Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations.

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche
οἱ Ἰουδαῖοι
the Jews
Here, The Jews refers to the Jewish leaders. See how you translated this term in 1:19.
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion
οὐ καλῶς λέγομεν ἡμεῖς ὅτι Σαμαρείτης εἶ σὺ, καὶ δαιμόνιον ἔχεις?
not rightly /are/_saying we that /a/_Samaritan are you and /a/_demon ˱you˲_/are/_having
The Jews are using a rhetorical question here to accuse Jesus and to dishonor him. If you would not use a rhetorical question for this purpose in your language, you could translate his words as a statement or an exclamation and communicate the emphasis in another way. Alternate translation: “We certainly say rightly that you are a Samaritan and have a demon!”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
Σαμαρείτης εἶ σὺ
/a/_Samaritan are you
Most Jewish people in Jesus’ time hated and despised Samaritans, so his Jewish opponents here called Jesus a Samaritan in order to insult him. Use the natural form in your language to indicate that this is an insult. Alternate translation: “you are one of those accursed Samaritans” or “you are an enemy Samaritan”
δαιμόνιον ἔχεις
/a/_demon ˱you˲_/are/_having
See how you translated this phrase in 7:20. Alternate translation: “a demon is inside of you!” or “you must be under the control of a demon!”
