Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed as a tool for doing comparisons of different translations—the older translations are further down the page (so you can read up from the bottom to trace the English translation history). The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible—please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

SOTN SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 5:1–20: Jesus freed a man whom many evil spirits controlled

After the storm, Jesus and his disciples arrived at the northeastern shore of Lake Galilee. This was a region where many Gentiles lived.

When Jesus and his disciples arrived, a man who was controlled by many evil spirits immediately came to Jesus. Jesus commanded the evil spirits to leave the man. When the evil spirits left, they went to control a large herd of pigs and destroyed those pigs.

“Uncleanness” is a theme in this story. The evil spirits that controlled the man were called “unclean” spirits. Tombs were “unclean.” Jews also considered pigs to be “unclean.” Jesus showed his power over evil spirits when he healed the man.

It is good if you translate this section before you decide on a heading for it.

Here are some other possible headings for this section:

Jesus commanded many unclean spirits to leave a man

The deliverance of a man who was controlled by many unclean spirits

There are parallel passages for this section in Matthew 8:28–34 and Luke 8:26–39.

Paragraph 5:6–10

In this paragraph, it is not always clear whether the text refers to the unclean spirit that controlled the man or to the man himself. Languages have different ways of referring to the actions and speech of people who are controlled by unclean spirits. Some languages use different pronouns or other forms to refer to people and spirits. Use natural ways in your language to refer to the unclean spirit and the man in each context.

5:10

And he begged Jesus repeatedly not to send them out of that region.

And he pleaded repeatedly that Jesus would not send them out of the region.
Then he begged Jesus earnestly, “Please do not send us^(excl) out of this area.”

he begged Jesus repeatedly not to send them out of that region: In some languages, it may be more natural to use direct speech in this context. For example:

he begged Jesus repeatedly, “Do not send us out of this region.”

he begged Jesus: The Greek word that the BSB translates as begged means to “plead for” something. It is a strong word that emphasizes how much the speaker desires what he is pleading for. This is an important word in this story. It is found here, in 5:12, 5:17, and 5:18b. Consider using the same word each time if that would be natural in your language.

repeatedly: The Greek word that the BSB translates as repeatedly means “strongly” or “greatly.”In English “strongly” or “greatly” seems to describe quite well the common element present in all the contextual translations of Mark’s adverbial πολλα: “frequently,” “strictly,” “solemnly,” “sternly,” “eagerly,” “heartily,” “violently,” “unrestrainedly,” etc. Here it indicates that the unclean spirit repeated the plea urgently. Use a natural expression in your language to indicate this. Here are some examples:

earnestly (NJB)

again and again (NIV)

them: The word them refers to all of the unclean spirits that were controlling the man.

region: The Greek word that the BSB translates as region here is the same word that it translates as “region” in 5:1a–b. See how you translated the word there.
