OET (OET-LV) And he_is_saying to_them:
Come you_all yourselves by yourselves to a_desolate place and rest a_little.
For/Because the ones coming and the ones going were many, and they_were_ not_even _having_opportunity to_eat.
OET (OET-RV) Then he told them, “Let’s just all of us head for a quiet place and take a break.” This was because there were so many people always coming and going, and sometimes they didn’t even have a chance to eat.
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
and ˱he˲_/is/_saying ˱to˲_them come you_all yourselves by yourselves to /a/_desolate place and rest /a/_little & were for the_‹ones› coming and the_‹ones› going many and not_even /to/_eat ˱they˲_/were/_having_opportunity
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 yourselves
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 and the_‹ones› going
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
not_even /to/_eat ˱they˲_/were/_having_opportunity
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”
6:30-44 The disciples’ mission concludes (6:6-13, 30-34), followed by the account of the feeding of the 5,000 (6:35-44; see also Matt 14:13-21; Luke 9:10-17; John 6:1-15). The feeding of the 4,000 is sufficiently different to indicate that these were two separate occasions (see Mark 8:1-10).

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Greek words that they’re translated from.
