(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί ἐλθόντες πρός τούς μαθητάς εἶδεν ὄχλον πολύν περί αὐτούς καί γραμματεῖς συζητοῦντας πρός αὐτούς)

Here, the word And introduces the next major event in the story. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that introduces the next event, or you could leave And untranslated. Alternate translation: [After that,]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἐλθόντες πρὸς τοὺς μαθητὰς

Here Mark implies that Jesus, Peter, James, and John returned to the rest of the disciples. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: [when Jesus, Peter, James, and John returned to the rest of the disciples who had not gone with them up the mountain]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / go

ἐλθόντες

˓having˒_come

In a context such as this, your language might say “gone” instead of come. Alternate translation: [having gone]
