OET (OET-LV) But the Farisaios_party were_saying:
He_is_throwing_out the demons by the ruler of_the demons.

OET (OET-RV) But the Pharisees said, “He casts out demons with the help of the demons’ ruler.”

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 9:27–34: Jesus healed two blind men and a mute man

In this section, Jesus performed two more miracles of healing. First, he healed two blind men because they had faith in him. Afterward he asked them not to tell other people about him healing them because he did not want people to try and make him an earthly king. But they were so happy that they told people anyway.

Then Jesus healed a man who was unable to talk because a demon was controlling him. The Pharisees did not believe that Jesus’ power was from God, so they said Jesus got his power from Satan, the leader of demons.

Here are some other possible headings for this section:

Two blind men and a mute man are healed by Jesus

Jesus healed two blind men and forced a demon out of a mute man

Paragraph 9:32–34

Verse 9:31b is a summary about the deeds of the two men during the days or weeks after they were healed. This paragraph resumes the story from 9:31a after the men had just left Jesus. Some languages may have a special way to indicate that 9:32a resumes the story from 9:31a.

9:34a

But the Pharisees said,

But: There is a contrast here. The contrast is between the crowd’s reaction to Jesus’ miracle in 9:33b and the Pharisee’s reaction in 9:34a–b. The BSB shows this contrast with the conjunction But.

the Pharisees said: The Greek verb that the BSB translates as said can also be translated as “were saying.” For example:

the Pharisees were saying (NASB)

The form of the verb indicates that the Pharisees probably said the following words on more than one occasion. In fact, in 12:24, they do say the same thing.

Pharisees: For help in translating this word, see the note in 9:11a.

9:34b

“It is by the prince of demons that He drives out demons.”

It is by the prince of demons that He drives out demons: The Pharisees falsely claimed that the prince of demons gave Jesus the power to drive out demons. But in truth, God had given Jesus that power.

In Greek, the phrase by the prince of demons is emphasized. If you have a natural way to emphasize this phrase, you may want to do so. For example:

The prince of demons is the one that gives him power to force demons out. (NCV)

Here is another way to translate this sentence:

The leader of the demons gives him the power to force out demons

prince of demons: In this context, the Greek word that the BSB translates as prince refers generally to a leader or chief. Here it refers specifically to Satan, the leader of all demons. Here it does not refer to the “son of a king.”

Here are some other ways to translate this phrase:

the chief of the demons (GNT)

the ruler of demons (NET)

Satan, the leader of demons

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-contrast

δὲ

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: οἱ Δέ Φαρισαῖοι ἔλεγον ἐν τῷ ἄρχοντι τῶν δαιμονίων Ἐκβάλλει τά δαιμόνια)

Here, the word But introduces what the Pharisees say in contrast to what the crowds said ([9:33](../09/33.md)). If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a different word that introduces a contrast. Alternate translation: [In contrast,]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἐν τῷ ἄρχοντι τῶν δαιμονίων

by the ruler ˱of˲_the demons

Here the Pharisees mean that Jesus has power from the ruler of the demons to cast out demons. You could include this information if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [By the power of the ruler of the demons] or [As he is empowered by the ruler of the demons]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

τῷ ἄρχοντι τῶν δαιμονίων

the ruler ˱of˲_the demons

The phrase the ruler of the demons refers to the devil, that is, Satan. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could make this idea more explicit. Alternate translation: [Satan, the ruler of the demons,]
