OET-LV and having_boarded into the_boat, they_were_coming across the sea to Kafarnaʼoum.
And darkness already had_become, and the Yaʸsous had_ not_yet _come to them.

OET (OET-RV) and having boarded the boat, they set out across the lake toward Kafarnaoum (Capernaum). By then it was dark, and there was still no sign of Yeshua.

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 6:16–21: Jesus walked on the water of Lake Galilee

In this brief section the disciples saw Jesus walking on the surface of Lake Galilee. See the parallel passages in Matthew 14:22–27 and Mark 6:45–52.

Here are other possible titles for this section:

Jesus walked on water

Jesus walked to his disciples on the water

Paragraph 6:16–18

This paragraph sets the scene for Jesus’ miracle of walking on the water.

6:17a

got into a boat, and started across the sea to Capernaum.

a boat: In the context, the term boat refers to a fishing boat with wooden oars and a square sail. It was likely twenty (20) to thirty (30) feet long and made of oak and/or cedar wood.

started across the sea to Capernaum: Again, the word sea refers to Lake Galilee. The disciples intended to cross the lake and began to do so.

Here are other ways to translate this phrase:

set off by boat to cross to Capernaum (REB)

began to cross the lake toward Capernaum

6:17b

It was already dark,

6:17c

and Jesus had not yet gone out to them.

6:17b–c

It was already dark, and Jesus had not yet gone out to them: This comment by the author indicates that the disciples were alone in the boat. Some commentaries say that this implies that the disciples expected Jesus to join them in the boat before they left. Other commentaries say that this just means that Jesus had not yet walked on water to them. So we do not really know what the implication is. If possible, leave any implication of this clause ambiguous.

OET-LV and having_boarded into the_boat, they_were_coming across the sea to Kafarnaʼoum.
And darkness already had_become, and the Yaʸsous had_ not_yet _come to them.

OET (OET-RV) and having boarded the boat, they set out across the lake toward Kafarnaoum (Capernaum). By then it was dark, and there was still no sign of Yeshua.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.

Acknowledgements: The SR Greek text, lemmas, morphology, and VLT gloss are all thanks to the CNTR.
