OET interlinear MARK 6:33

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

εἶδον αὐτοὺς ὑπάγοντας, καὶ ἐπέγνωσαν πολλοί

˱they˲_saw them going and recognized_‹them› many

The word many could go with: (1) just knew. Alternate translation: “people saw them leaving, and many people knew” (2) both saw and knew. Alternate translation: “many saw them leaving and knew”

Note 2 topic: writing-pronouns

εἶδον

˱they˲_saw

Here, the pronoun they refers to people in general. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that refers generally to people. Alternate translation: “some saw” or “people who were there saw”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj

πολλοί

many

Mark is using the adjective many as a noun to mean many people. Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you could translate this word with an equivalent phrase. Alternate translation: “many people”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἐπέγνωσαν

recognized_‹them›

Here Mark could be implying that they knew: (1) that Jesus and his disciples were the ones who were leaving. Alternate translation: “recognized them” (2) where Jesus and disciples were going. Alternate translation: “realized where they were going”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicitinfo

πεζῇ & συνέδραμον ἐκεῖ

on_foot & ˱they˲_ran_together there

The expression on foot contains extra information that would be unnatural to express in some languages. If this is true of your language, you could shorten the expression. Alternate translation: “they ran there together”

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἀπὸ πασῶν τῶν πόλεων

from all the /the/_cities

Here Matthew refers to the cities near where Jesus and the disciples had been. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “from all the cities in that region” or “from all the nearby cities”
