Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
ἡ δὲ Μάρθα περιεσπᾶτο περὶ πολλὴν διακονίαν
¬the but Martha /was_being/_pulled_away about much service
If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this with an active form. Alternate translation: “But all Martha could think about was the big meal she was preparing”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion
οὐ μέλει σοι, ὅτι ἡ ἀδελφή μου μόνην με κατέλιπεν διακονεῖν?
not ˱it˲_/is/_mattering ˱to˲_you that the sister ˱of˲_me only me left /to_be/_serving
Martha is complaining that Jesus is allowing Mary to sit listening to him when there is so much work to do. Martha respects the Lord, so she uses a rhetorical question to make her complaint more polite. If it would be helpful in your language, you could translate her words as a statement. Alternate translation: “it seems as if you do not care that my sister has left me alone to serve.”
