Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ἔρχονται
˱they˲_/are/_coming
Here Mark implies that Peter, James, John, and Jairus were traveling with Jesus. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “they come” or “Jesus, Jairus, and the three disciples come”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / go
ἔρχονται
˱they˲_/are/_coming
In a context such as this, your language might say “goes” instead of comes. Alternate translation: “he goes”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / hendiadys
θόρυβον, καὶ κλαίοντας καὶ ἀλαλάζοντας πολλά
/a/_commotion and weeping and screaming much
This phrase expresses a single idea by using two terms connected with and. The phrase weeping and much wailing explains what actions created the commotion. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this meaning with an equivalent phrase that does not use and. Alternate translation: “a commotion, including weeping and much wailing” or “a commotion caused by weeping and much wailing”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet
κλαίοντας καὶ ἀλαλάζοντας πολλά
weeping and screaming much
The terms weeping and much wailing mean similar things. Mark is using the two terms together for emphasis. If it would be clearer for your readers, you could express the emphasis with a single phrase. Alternate translation: “very much mourning” or “a great deal of weeping”
