ταλιθὰ, κοῦμ! ὅ ἐστιν μεθερμηνευόμενον τὸ κοράσιον, σοὶ λέγω ἔγειρε!
(Some words not found in SR-GNT: καὶ κρατήσας τῆς χειρὸς τοῦ παιδίου λέγει αὐτῇ ταλιθά κούμ ὅ ἐστιν μεθερμηνευόμενον τὸ κοράσιον σοὶ λέγω ἔγειρε)
The phrase Talitha, koum is an Aramaic phrase. Mark spelled it out using Greek letters so his readers would know how it sounded, and then he explained what it meant: Little girl, I say to you, arise. In your translation you can spell it the way it sounds in your language and then explain its meaning. Alternate translation: [‘Talitha, koum!’ which is Aramaic for, ‘Little girl, I say to you, arise.’]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
ὅ ἐστιν μεθερμηνευόμενον
which is /being/_translated
If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [which we translate as,]
5:41 Mark translates Talitha koum for his Greek-speaking readers as Little girl, get up! The Aramaic terms are not magical; they are simply the actual words Jesus spoke when he raised the little girl, since Aramaic was his native language. The Aramaic terms that Mark records probably come from learning the story in Aramaic in Jerusalem.

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.
