OET interlinear MARK 4:41

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

ἐφοβήθησαν φόβον μέγαν

˱they˲_˓were˒_afraid ˱with˲_fear great

Here, the phrase feared a great fear means that they were extremely afraid. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a comparable phrase or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [they were extremely afraid] or [they were terrified]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / infostructure

τίς ἄρα οὗτός ἐστιν, ὅτι καὶ ὁ ἄνεμος καὶ ἡ θάλασσα ὑπακούει αὐτῷ?

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί ἐφοβήθησαν φόβον μέγαν καί ἔλεγον πρός ἀλλήλους Τίς ἄρα οὗτος ἐστίν ὅτι καί ὁ ἄνεμος καί ἡ θάλασσα αὐτῷ ὑπακούει)

If it would be helpful in your language, you could turn this into two sentences, one asking the question, and the other giving the reason for the question. Alternate translation: [Who then is this? Even the wind and the sea obey him!]

τίς ἄρα οὗτός ἐστιν, ὅτι καὶ ὁ ἄνεμος καὶ ἡ θάλασσα ὑπακούει αὐτῷ

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί ἐφοβήθησαν φόβον μέγαν καί ἔλεγον πρός ἀλλήλους Τίς ἄρα οὗτος ἐστίν ὅτι καί ὁ ἄνεμος καί ἡ θάλασσα αὐτῷ ὑπακούει)

This is a genuine question, not a statement in question form. The disciples are looking for information about what kind of person Jesus could be if he can do these things. Alternate translation: [Who then is this person, for even the wind and the sea obey him]

Note 3 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

τίς ἄρα

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί ἐφοβήθησαν φόβον μέγαν καί ἔλεγον πρός ἀλλήλους Τίς ἄρα οὗτος ἐστίν ὅτι καί ὁ ἄνεμος καί ἡ θάλασσα αὐτῷ ὑπακούει)

Here, the word then indicates that the disciples ask this question in response to what Jesus has done. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: [So then, who] or [Given what he just did, who]
