If it would be more natural in your language, you could change the order of these phrases, since the reason why the Jewish leaders were seeking to seize Jesus was that they knew that he spoke the parable against them. Also, the reason why they left Jesus without arresting him was because they feared the crowd. If it would be helpful in your language, you could put the reasons before their results. Alternate translation: “And they knew that he spoke the parable against them, so they were seeking to seize him. However, they feared the crowd, so having left him, they went away”
Note 2 topic: writing-pronouns
ἐζήτουν
˱they˲_/were/_seeking
Here, the pronoun they refers to the chief priests, scribes, and elders mentioned in 11:27. If it would be helpful in your language, you could refer to these people more directly. Alternate translation: “the Jewish leaders were seeking”
Note 3 topic: grammar-connect-logic-contrast
(Occurrence 2) καὶ
and
Here, Mark uses the word and to introduce a contrast between what the Jewish leaders wanted to do and the reason why they were not able to do so. Use a natural way in your language for introducing a contrast. Alternate translation: “yet” or “but”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
τὸν ὄχλον
the crowd
Here Mark implies that the chief priests and the Pharisees feared what the crowd would do if they seized Jesus. They might have rioted or attacked them. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “what the crowd would do” or “that the crowd might riot”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
καὶ ἀφέντες αὐτὸν, ἀπῆλθον
and and and /having/_left him ˱they˲_went_away
Here Mark implies that the Jewish leaders did not seize Jesus. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “And they did not seize him, but instead, having left him, they went away”
Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / go
ἀπῆλθον
˱they˲_went_away
In a context such as this, your language might say “came” instead of went. Alternate translation: “they came away”
