OET interlinear MARK 1:45

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / go

ἐξελθὼν

/having/_come_out

In a context such as this, your language might say “come” instead of gone. Alternate translation: [having come out]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism

κηρύσσειν πολλὰ καὶ διαφημίζειν τὸν λόγον

/to_be/_proclaiming much and /to_be/_spreading_abroad the word

The phrases to proclaim often and to report the word mean similar things. Mark is using the two phrases together for emphasis. If it would be clearer for your readers, you could express the emphasis with a single clause. Alternate translation: [to proclaim the word much] or [to report the word much]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

τὸν λόγον

the word

Here, word represents what the man said about how Jesus healed him. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression from your language or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [what Jesus had done for him]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ὥστε μηκέτι αὐτὸν δύνασθαι φανερῶς εἰς πόλιν εἰσελθεῖν

so_that no_longer him /to_be/_able openly into /the/_city /to/_come_in

Here Mark implies that Jesus was able no longer to enter into a town openly because people who had heard about him would crowd around him so much. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: [so that, because so many people would crowd around him, he was able no longer to enter into a town openly]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / go

ἤρχοντο

˱they˲_/were/_coming

In a context such as this, your language might say “going” instead of coming. Alternate translation: [they were going]

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / hyperbole

πάντοθεν

on_every_side

The phrase from all sides is an overstatement for emphasis. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a different way to express the emphasis. Alternate translation: [from all over the region] or [from very many places]
