OET (OET-LV) And the mother of_him and the brothers of_him are_coming and standing outside, they_sent_out to him calling him.

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases
καὶ
and
Here, the word And introduces the next thing that happened. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that introduces the next event, or you could leave And untranslated. Alternate translation: [After that,]
Note 2 topic: translate-kinship
οἱ ἀδελφοὶ αὐτοῦ
the brothers ˱of˲_him
These were Jesus’ younger brothers. They were sons of Mary and Joseph. Since the Father of Jesus was God, and their father was Joseph, they were actually his half-brothers. That detail is not normally translated, but if your language has a specific word for “younger brother,” you could use it here.
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / go
ἔρχονται
˓are˒_coming
In a context such as this, your language might say “go” instead of come. Alternate translation: [go]
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ἔξω στήκοντες
outside standing
Here Mark implies that they are standing outside the house that Jesus is in, most likely the house mentioned in [3:20](../03/20.md). If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: [standing outside the house] or [standing outside the place where Jesus was teaching]
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ἀπέστειλαν πρὸς αὐτὸν καλοῦντες αὐτόν
˱they˲_sent_out to him calling him
Here Mark means that Jesus’ mother and brothers sent a person to Jesus to ask him to come out and meet them. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: [they sent a messenger to him to summon him] or [they had someone go in and tell him to come out]
3:20-35 This story about Jesus and his family (3:20-21 and 31-35) brackets a controversy story about Jesus’ exorcisms (3:22-30); this arrangement identifies Jesus’ family with the religious leaders in opposing him.
OET (OET-LV) And the mother of_him and the brothers of_him are_coming and standing outside, they_sent_out to him calling him.
OET (OET-RV) Now Yeshua’s mother and brothers came and were standing outside and asked someone to tell him that they were there.
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
