UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἰδὼν & τὴν πίστιν αὐτῶν

/having/_seen & the faith ˱of˲_them

Here Mark implies that Jesus recognized that the friends of this paralyzed man strongly believed that he could heal him. Their actions proved that. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could make this idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “having recognized that they were convinced that he could heal the paralytic”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

τὴν πίστιν αὐτῶν

the faith ˱of˲_them

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of faith, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “how they trusted”

Note 3 topic: translate-unknown

τῷ παραλυτικῷ

˱to˲_the paralytic

See how you translated the word paralytic in 2:3. Alternate translation: “to the paralyzed person” or “to the person who could not move his limbs”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

τέκνον

child

Here Jesus calls the paralytic Child to indicate that he cares for him. The word also implies that the paralytic was younger than Jesus. The paralytic was not actually Jesus’ son. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a form of address that an older person would use to show that they care for a younger person. Alternate translation: “My friend” or “Young one”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ἀφέωνται σου αἱ ἁμαρτίαι

/have_been/_forgiven ˱of˲_you the sins

If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. If you need to say who does the action, it is clear from the context that it is Jesus. Alternate translation: “I forgive your sins”
