uW Translation Notes:

περίλυπος γενόμενος

very_sorrowful ˓having˒_become

Alternate translation: [feeling very sorry]

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

διὰ τοὺς ὅρκους καὶ τοὺς συνανακειμένους

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί περίλυπος γενόμενος ὁ βασιλεύς διά τούς ὅρκους καί τούς συνανακειμένους οὐκ ἠθέλησεν ἀθετῆσαι αὐτήν)

Here Mark indicates two reasons why Herod kept his word. First, he had made oaths that he did not want to break. Second, he had promised in front of the ones reclining to eat with him, and it would be embarrassing and shameful to break his promise when everyone had heard it. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make these reasons more explicit. Alternate translation: [because he had used oaths and because the ones reclining to eat with him had heard what he promised]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

τοὺς συνανακειμένους

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί περίλυπος γενόμενος ὁ βασιλεύς διά τούς ὅρκους καί τούς συνανακειμένους οὐκ ἠθέλησεν ἀθετῆσαι αὐτήν)

In Jesus’ culture, people would usually recline, or lay on one side, at a table when they were eating. If it would be helpful in your language, you could refer to the position in which people eat in your culture, or you could just refer to eating. See how you translated this phrase in [6:22](../06/22.md). Alternate translation: [the ones sitting down to eat with him] or [the ones eating with him]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / doublenegatives

οὐκ ἠθέλησεν ἀθετῆσαι αὐτήν

not ˱he˲_wanted ˓to˒_reject her

If it would be clearer in your language, you could use a positive expression to translate this double negative that consists of the negative particle not and the negative verb refuse. Alternate translation: [had to allow it] or [was compelled to do what she asked]
