OET-LVthe Yaʸsous Said:
Make the people to_sit_down.
And there_was grass much in the place.
Therefore the men sat_down, the number about five_thousand.

TSNTyndale Study Notes:

6:10 The headcount of about 5,000 reflected the men alone (Matt 14:21), as social custom dictated. With women and children included, the total number was far greater.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / quotations

εἶπεν ὁ Ἰησοῦς, ποιήσατε τοὺς ἀνθρώπους ἀναπεσεῖν.

said ¬the Jesus make the people /to/_sit_down

If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this as an indirect quotation. Alternate translation: “Jesus said to make the men sit down”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations

τοὺς ἀνθρώπους

the people

Although the term men is masculine, Jesus uses the word here in a generic sense that includes both men and women. Alternate translation: “the people”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / infostructure

ἦν δὲ χόρτος πολὺς ἐν τῷ τόπῳ. ἀνέπεσαν οὖν οἱ ἄνδρες, τὸν ἀριθμὸν ὡς πεντακισχίλιοι.

˱there˲_was and grass much in the place sat_down therefore the men the number about five_thousand

If it would be natural in your language, you could reverse the order of these phrases. Alternate translation: “So the men sat down, about 5,000 in number. (Now there was a lot of grass in the place.)”

Note 4 topic: writing-background

ἦν δὲ χόρτος πολὺς ἐν τῷ τόπῳ

˱there˲_was and grass much in the place

John briefly stops telling about the events in the story in order to give background information about the place where this event happened. Use the natural form in your language for expressing background information. Alternate translation: “The place where the people were all coming together had a lot of grass”

ἀνέπεσαν οὖν οἱ ἄνδρες, τὸν ἀριθμὸν ὡς πεντακισχίλιοι

sat_down therefore the men the number about five_thousand

Here, men refers specifically to adult males. Although the term for “men” used earlier in this verse refers to a group that included men, women, and children, here John is counting only the men.
