OET interlinear MARK 1:38

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

ἄγωμεν ἀλλαχοῦ εἰς τὰς ἐχομένας κωμοπόλεις, ἵνα καὶ ἐκεῖ κηρύξω; εἰς τοῦτο γὰρ ἐξῆλθον

˱we˲_/may_be/_going elsewhere into the neighboring villages in_order_that also there ˱I˲_/may/_proclaim for this_‹reason› for ˱I˲_came_out

If it would be more natural in your language, you could reverse the order of these clauses, since the last clause gives the reason for the result that the first clauses describe. Alternate translation: “Because I went out to preach in many places, let us go elsewhere, into the surrounding towns, so that I may preach there also”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἄγωμεν ἀλλαχοῦ

˱we˲_/may_be/_going elsewhere

Here Jesus implies that he will not go back to Capernaum to meet all the people who were looking for him. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “Instead of going back to Capernaum, let us go elsewhere”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / extrainfo

ἐξῆλθον

˱I˲_came_out

Here Jesus does not start where he went out from. He may be referring to how he left Capernaum, or he may be referring to how he came to the world as a human being, or he may be implying to both of these meanings. If possible, do not indicate where Jesus went out from. Alternate translation: “I came” or “I went here”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / go

ἐξῆλθον

˱I˲_came_out

In a context such as this, your language might say “came” instead of went. Alternate translation: “I came out”

Note 5 topic: writing-pronouns

εἰς τοῦτο

into for this_‹reason›

The pronoun this refers to Jesus preaching in the surrounding towns. If this is not clear for your readers, you could refer to that action more directly. Alternate translation: “to do that very thing” or “to preach in many places”
