Exegesis
The concluding clause kai dia touto energousin hai dunameis en autō {καὶ διὰ τοῦτο ἐνεργοῦσιν αἱ δυνάμεις ἐν αὐτῷ | kaì dià toû-to e-ner-GOÛ-sin haí du-NÁ-meis en au-tṓ} connects this belief to present experience: dia touto ‘because of this’ signals a causal relationship, and the present energousin ‘are at work’ depicts the dunameis ‘powers’ as presently operating “in him.” In translation, this syntactic progression—Herod’s hearing, the spread of the name, the popular explanation, and the perceived connection to miracles—is preserved by keeping the causal and reported-speech structure explicit.
In context — Mark 6:14
And King Herod heard of Him , for His name had become manifest, and they were saying, “John the baptizer has been raised from the dead, and because of this the powers are at work in him.”
