uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / quotations

εἶπεν τοῖς μαθηταῖς αὐτοῦ, ἵνα πλοιάριον προσκαρτερῇ αὐτῷ διὰ τὸν ὄχλον, ἵνα μὴ θλίβωσιν αὐτόν

˱he˲_told ˱to˲_the disciples ˱of˲_him that /a/_little_boat /may_be/_continuing ˱with˲_him because_of the crowd in_order_that not ˱they˲_/may_be/_crowding him

It may be more natural in your language to have a direct quotation here. Alternate translation: [he said to his disciples, ‘Make sure that a small boat is waiting for me because of the crowd, so that they do not press against me.’]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

πλοιάριον προσκαρτερῇ αὐτῷ διὰ τὸν ὄχλον

/a/_little_boat /may_be/_continuing ˱with˲_him because_of the crowd

Here Mark implies that Jesus plans to get into this small boat to get away from the crowd. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: [a small boat might be ready for him to embark on to get away from the crowd]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

μὴ θλίβωσιν αὐτόν

not ˱they˲_/may_be/_crowding him

Here Mark implies that Jesus is concerned that the crowd will press against him and crush or injure him. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: [they might not press against him and injure him] or [they might not hurt him]
