OET (OET-LV) And him having_come_in into a_house, the apprentices/followers of_him by themselves were_asking him, That We were_ not _able to_throw_ it _out?

OET (OET-RV) When Yeshua and his apprentices had gone into the house by themselves, they asked him, “How come we couldn’t drive it out?”

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 9:14–29: Jesus expelled an evil spirit from a boy

Earlier Jesus had given power to his twelve disciples to cast out demons and heal sick people. The disciples divided into groups of two and went and did those things (6:7–13). But here, when Jesus came down from the mountain with Peter, James, and John, he saw the other disciples arguing with the teachers of the Jewish law. They were arguing because the disciples were not able to make an evil spirit leave a man’s son.

When the evil spirit saw Jesus, it took control of the boy. Then Jesus caused the evil spirit to leave him. A large crowd of people was there and saw all these things.

It is good to translate this section before you decide on a heading for it. Here are some other possible headings for this section:

The Healing of a Boy with an Evil Spirit (NIV)

A boy was freed from an evil spirit

The Disciples’ Failure to Heal (NET)

There are parallel passages for this section in Matthew 17:14–21 and Luke 9:37–43.

9:28a

After Jesus had gone into the house,

In some languages, it will be natural to begin this paragraph with a time word, as the BSB does. For example:

Afterward (NLT)

Later

After Jesus had gone into the house: The Greek phrase that the BSB translates as After Jesus had gone into the house refers to Jesus entering a house. The house was probably one that Jesus and the disciples stayed in that night.

Here are some other ways to translate this phrase:

When Jesus went into a house (GW)

Then Jesus went indoors (REB)

It is implied that the disciples had gone into the house with Jesus. For example, the NLT says:

when Jesus was alone in the house with his disciples

9:28b

His disciples asked Him privately,

disciples: The Greek word that the BSB translates as disciples means “learners” who are in a relationship with a teacher. The learners commit themselves to their teacher in order to learn from him and live according to his teaching and example. In the New Testament disciples often lived with their teacher and followed him wherever he went.

Here are some other ways to translate this:

students/learners

apprentices

followers

See how you translated this term at 2:15b or 9:14a–b. See also disciple in the Glossary.

privately: The word privately here refers to a time when Jesus was alone with his disciples. The crowd was no longer present.

Here are some other ways to translate this:

when they were by themselves

when they were alone

9:28c

“Why couldn’t we drive it out?”

Why couldn’t we drive it out?: This is a real question. The disciples wanted Jesus to tell them why they had not been able to force the spirit to leave the boy.

Here are some other ways to translate this question:

Why couldn’t we force that evil spirit out? (NCV)

Why could we not cause the evil spirit to stop harming/controlling the boy?

drive…out: The Greek word that the BSB translates as drive…out is literally “cast/throw out.” This is the same word as in 9:18e. You should translate it the same way as you did there.

it: The pronoun it refers to the evil spirit that was last mentioned in 9:26a. Refer back to the evil spirit here in a natural way in your language.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche

εἰσελθόντος αὐτοῦ

˓having˒_come_in him

Mark is referring to Jesus to represent both Jesus and his disciples, who went with Jesus. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [he, along with his disciples, going]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / go

εἰσελθόντος

˓having˒_come_in

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

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / quotations

κατ’ ἰδίαν ἐπηρώτων αὐτόν, ὅτι ἡμεῖς οὐκ ἠδυνήθημεν ἐκβαλεῖν αὐτό?

by themselves ˓were˒_asking him (Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί εἰσελθόντος αὐτοῦ εἰς οἶκον οἱ μαθηταί αὐτοῦ κατʼ ἰδίαν ἐπηρώτων αὐτόν Ὅτι Ἡμεῖς οὐκ ἠδυνήθημεν ἐκβαλεῖν αὐτό)

It may be more natural in your language to have an indirect quotation here. Alternate translation: [asked him privately why they were not able to cast it out.]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / exclusive

ἡμεῖς

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί εἰσελθόντος αὐτοῦ εἰς οἶκον οἱ μαθηταί αὐτοῦ κατʼ ἰδίαν ἐπηρώτων αὐτόν Ὅτι Ἡμεῖς οὐκ ἠδυνήθημεν ἐκβαλεῖν αὐτό)

By we, the speaker means himself and the rest of the disciples but not Jesus, so use the exclusive form of that word in your translation if your language marks that distinction.

Note 5 topic: writing-pronouns

αὐτό

it

The pronoun it refers to the demon which Jesus cast out of the boy. If it would be helpful in your language, you could refer to the demon more directly. Alternate translation: [the demon]

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

9:14-29 This is the fourth and last exorcism in Mark (1:21-28; 5:1-20; 7:24-30). The disciples were unable to perform the exorcism, so Jesus performed it, emphasizing the necessity of faith (cp. 2:5; 5:34; 10:52). This is another example of Jesus’ great healing ability and of the disciples’ failure (8:32-33; 9:5-7).

OET (OET-LV) And him having_come_in into a_house, the apprentices/followers of_him by themselves were_asking him, That We were_ not _able to_throw_ it _out?

OET (OET-RV) When Yeshua and his apprentices had gone into the house by themselves, they asked him, “How come we couldn’t drive it out?”

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.

Acknowledgements: The SR Greek text, lemmas, morphology, and VLT gloss are all thanks to the CNTR.
