Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations.

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
ἰδοὺ
behold
Luke uses behold to calls the reader’s attention to what he is about to say. Your language may have a similar expression that you can use here.
Note 2 topic: writing-participants
ἦλθεν ἀνὴρ ᾧ ὄνομα Ἰάειρος
came /a/_man ˱to˲_whose name_‹was› Jairus
Luke uses this phrase to introduce a new character into the story. If your language has its own way of doing that, you could use it here in your translation. Alternate translation: “there was man whose name was Jairus, and he came”
Note 3 topic: translate-names
Ἰάειρος
Jairus
Jairus is the name of a man.
ἄρχων τῆς συναγωγῆς
/a/_ruler ˱of˲_the synagogue
Alternate translation: “one of the leaders at the local synagogue” or “a leader of the people who met at the synagogue in that city”
Note 4 topic: translate-symaction
πεσὼν παρὰ τοὺς πόδας Ἰησοῦ
/having/_fallen before the feet ˱of˲_Jesus
Be sure that it is clear in your translation that Jairus did not fall down accidentally. Rather, bowing or lying down in front of Jesus was a sign of humility and respect for him. Alternate translation: “respectfully bowed down at Jesus’ feet” or “respectfully lay down on the ground in front of Jesus”
