OET interlinear MARK 1:34

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

κακῶς ἔχοντας

sickly being

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: “men and women who were ill”

Note 2 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

οὐκ ἤφιεν λαλεῖν τὰ δαιμόνια, ὅτι ᾔδεισαν αὐτόν

not ˱he˲_/was/_allowing (Some words not found in SR-GNT: καὶ ἐθεράπευσεν πολλοὺς κακῶς ἔχοντας ποικίλαις νόσοις καὶ δαιμόνια πολλὰ ἐξέβαλεν καὶ οὐκ ἤφιεν τὰ δαιμόνια λαλεῖν ὅτι ᾔδεισαν αὐτόν Χριστὸν εἶναι)

If it would be more natural in your language, you could reverse the order of these clauses, since the second clause gives the reason for the result that the first clause describes. Alternate translation: “because the demons knew him, he was not permitting them to speak”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ᾔδεισαν αὐτόν

˱they˲_/had/_known him

Here Mark implies that the demons knew that Jesus was the Christ, the Son of God. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “they knew who he really was” or “they knew that he was the Christ”
