OET interlinear MAT 14:23

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / extrainfo

τὸ ὄρος

the mountain

Matthew does not clarify what mountain this is or how high up it is. If possible, use a general word for a hill or small mountain without indicating one particular place. Alternate translation: “a high place” or “a small mountain”

Note 2 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases

δὲ

and

Here, the word Now introduces the next thing that happened. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that introduces the next event, or you could leave Now untranslated. Alternate translation: “Then,”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ὀψίας & γενομένης

evening & /having/_become

Matthew indicated that it was evening earlier in the story (see 14:15). Here, he uses the same phrase but implies that it was later on in the evening. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that describes a time later than the time described in 14:15. Alternate translation: “when it was even later in the evening” or “further into the evening”
