Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / exclamations
ἰδοὺ
behold
Here, the word behold draws the attention of the audience and asks them to listen carefully. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express behold with a word or phrase that asks the audience to listen, or you could draw the audience’s attention in another way. Alternate translation: “picture this” or “suddenly”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
τὸ πλοῖον καλύπτεσθαι ὑπὸ τῶν κυμάτων
the boat /to_be_being/_covered by the waves
If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “the waves covered the boat”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
τὸ πλοῖον καλύπτεσθαι ὑπὸ τῶν κυμάτων
the boat /to_be_being/_covered by the waves
The implication is that the storm was causing high waves that pushed water over the sides of the boat. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could make this idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “the boat was filling up with water because of the waves”
Note 4 topic: writing-pronouns
αὐτὸς
he
The pronoun he refers to Jesus. If this is not clear for your readers, you could use the person's name here. Alternate translation: “Jesus”
8:24 a fierce storm struck the lake: Sudden squalls are common on the Sea of Galilee, which is among mountains.

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