OET (OET-LV) And the people marvelled saying:
What_kind_of man is this that both the winds and the sea are_submitting to_him?

OET (OET-RV) The people were astonished and asked, “What kind of man is this that the winds and the lake just do what he says?”

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 8:23–27: Jesus commanded a storm to stop

In this section Jesus performed the miracle of stopping the winds from blowing and of calming the waves. This showed that he had power over nature.

Here are some other possible headings for this section:

Jesus calmed a storm on the lake

Jesus stopped the wind and waves

Jesus demonstrated his power over storms/nature

There are parallel passages for this section in Mark 4:35–41 and Luke 8:22–25.

8:27a

The men were amazed and asked,

The men: The Greek phrase that the BSB literally translates as The men refers to the men in the boat. In other words, it refers to the disciples.

Here are some other ways to translate this phrase:

The men in the boat (CEV)

The disciples (NLT)

were amazed: The Greek word that the BSB translates as were amazed also means “marveled.” The disciples were genuinely surprised that Jesus had this kind of authority.

Here are some other ways to translate this clause:

were amazed (NLT)

were astonished at what had happened (REB)

This same word occurs in 8:10a.

asked: The disciples were speaking to one another, not to Jesus. For example:

saying to one another

and said to each other

8:27b

“What kind of man is this?

8:27c

Even the winds and the sea obey Him!”

8:27b–c

What kind of man is this? Even the winds and the sea obey Him!: This is a rhetorical question. It expresses surprise and amazement. The disciples expressed amazement that Jesus had such great power.

There are several ways to translate this amazement:

obey Him!: The verb obey indicates that the winds and the seas did as Jesus commanded. In some languages, the verb obey can only be used with people or animals, not wind and water. So another verb must be used. For example:

He even controls the wind and the waves

He has power over even the wind and the waves.

Even the winds and the waves do as he says!

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

οἱ & ἄνθρωποι

the & people

Here, the phrase the men refers to the disciples who are on the boat with Jesus. You could include this information if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [the disciples]

Note 2 topic: writing-quotations

λέγοντες

saying

Consider natural ways of introducing direct quotations in your language. Alternate translation: [and they said]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / infostructure

ποταπός ἐστιν οὗτος, ὅτι καὶ οἱ ἄνεμοι καὶ ἡ θάλασσα αὐτῷ ὑπακούουσιν?

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: οἱ Δέ ἄνθρωποι ἐθαύμασαν λέγοντες Ποταπός ἐστίν οὗτος ὅτι καί οἱ ἄνεμοι καί ἡ θάλασσα αὐτῷ ὑπακούουσιν)

If it would be helpful in your language, you could turn this into two sentences, one asking the question, and the other giving the reason for the question. Alternate translation: [What sort of man is he? Even the winds and the sea obey him!]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

ποταπός ἐστιν οὗτος, ὅτι καὶ οἱ ἄνεμοι καὶ ἡ θάλασσα αὐτῷ ὑπακούουσιν

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: οἱ Δέ ἄνθρωποι ἐθαύμασαν λέγοντες Ποταπός ἐστίν οὗτος ὅτι καί οἱ ἄνεμοι καί ἡ θάλασσα αὐτῷ ὑπακούουσιν)

This is a genuine question, not a statement in question form. The disciples are looking for information about what kind of person Jesus could be if he can do these things. Alternate translation: [What sort of person is this man, for even the winds and the sea obey him]

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

8:27 Who is this man? Salvation requires a proper answer to this question and active faith in him. Jesus’ disciples had still failed to understand.
