OET interlinear MARK 6:31

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

καὶ λέγει αὐτοῖς, δεῦτε ὑμεῖς αὐτοὶ κατ’ ἰδίαν εἰς ἔρημον τόπον, καὶ ἀναπαύσασθε ὀλίγον & ἦσαν γὰρ οἱ ἐρχόμενοι καὶ οἱ ὑπάγοντες πολλοί, καὶ οὐδὲ φαγεῖν εὐκαίρουν

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί λέγει αὐτοῖς Δεῦτε ὑμεῖς αὐτοί κατʼ ἰδίαν εἰς ἐρῆμον τόπον καί ἀναπαύσασθε ὀλίγον ἦσαν Γάρ οἱ ἐρχόμενοι καί οἱ ὑπάγοντες πολλοί καί οὐδέ φαγεῖν εὐκαίρουν)

If it would be more natural in your language, you could reverse the order of these sentences, since the second sentence gives the reason for the result that the first sentence describes. Alternate translation: [And the ones coming and the ones going were many, and they were not even having opportunity to eat. Therefore, he says to them, “You yourselves, come by yourselves to a desolate place and rest a little while.”]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / rpronouns

ὑμεῖς αὐτοὶ

you_all (Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί λέγει αὐτοῖς Δεῦτε ὑμεῖς αὐτοί κατʼ ἰδίαν εἰς ἐρῆμον τόπον καί ἀναπαύσασθε ὀλίγον ἦσαν Γάρ οἱ ἐρχόμενοι καί οἱ ὑπάγοντες πολλοί καί οὐδέ φαγεῖν εὐκαίρουν)

Jesus uses the word yourselves to emphasize that he wants the disciples to come with him. Use a way that is natural in your language to indicate this significance. Alternate translation: [As for you]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

οἱ ἐρχόμενοι καὶ οἱ ὑπάγοντες

the_‹ones› coming the_‹ones› (Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί λέγει αὐτοῖς Δεῦτε ὑμεῖς αὐτοί κατʼ ἰδίαν εἰς ἐρῆμον τόπον καί ἀναπαύσασθε ὀλίγον ἦσαν Γάρ οἱ ἐρχόμενοι καί οἱ ὑπάγοντες πολλοί καί οὐδέ φαγεῖν εὐκαίρουν)

Here Mark means that many people were visiting the place where Jesus and the disciples were. Many people were visiting and many others were leaving all the time. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: [the people visiting that place and then leaving] or [the people who were there]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

οὐδὲ φαγεῖν εὐκαίρουν

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί λέγει αὐτοῖς Δεῦτε ὑμεῖς αὐτοί κατʼ ἰδίαν εἰς ἐρῆμον τόπον καί ἀναπαύσασθε ὀλίγον ἦσαν Γάρ οἱ ἐρχόμενοι καί οἱ ὑπάγοντες πολλοί καί οὐδέ φαγεῖν εὐκαίρουν)

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of opportunity, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: [they could not even find time to eat] or [they were so busy that they could not eat]
