OET interlinear MAT 14:35

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations

οἱ ἄνδρες

the men

Matthew uses a word that refers specifically to men. However, the gender of these people is not important for the story, so you could use a word or phrase that refers to both men and women. Alternate translation: [the people]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

τοῦ τόπου ἐκείνου

¬the ˱of˲_place that

Here, the phrase that place refers to the area named “Gennesaret” (see [14:34](../14/34.md)). You could include this information if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [of the region of Gennesaret]

Note 3 topic: writing-pronouns

προσήνεγκαν

brought

Here, the pronoun they refers to the people who lived in that surrounding area. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that refers to these people. Alternate translation: [people from that whole area brought]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / hyperbole

πάντας

all

Matthew says all here as a generalization for emphasis. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a different way to express the emphasis. Alternate translation: [many of]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

τοὺς κακῶς ἔχοντας

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί ἐπιγνόντες αὐτόν οἱ ἄνδρες τοῦ τόπου ἐκείνου ἀπέστειλαν εἰς ὅλην τήν περίχωρον ἐκείνην καί προσήνεγκαν αὐτῷ πάντας τούς κακῶς ἔχοντας)

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of sickness, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: [the sick people]
