OET (OET-RV) Elisha left the plough and ran after Eliyah, saying, “Please let me kiss my father and my mother, then I’ll come with you.”
¶ “Go on back then,” Eliyah replied, “because I haven’t done anything for you.”

אֶשְּׁקָה & לְאָבִ֣י וּלְאִמִּ֔י
(Some words not found in UHB: and,he_left DOM the,ox[en] and,he_ran after ʼĒliyyāh and=he/it_said kiss please (to),father_of,my and,(to),mother_of,my and,I_will_go after,you and=he/it_said to=him/it go_back again that/for/because/then/when what? done to/for=you(fs) )
Elisha is using one action that would be part of a ceremonial goodbye, a kiss, to represent the entire action of saying a proper goodbye to his parents. (The context shows that this involved a ceremonial meal.) If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression from your culture or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [let me say a proper goodbye to my father and my mother]

Here the word for introduces not a reason but an explanation. Alternate translation: [Go, return. After all,]

what? (Some words not found in UHB: and,he_left DOM the,ox[en] and,he_ran after ʼĒliyyāh and=he/it_said kiss please (to),father_of,my and,(to),mother_of,my and,I_will_go after,you and=he/it_said to=him/it go_back again that/for/because/then/when what? done to/for=you(fs) )
Elijah is using the question form for emphasis. If a speaker of your language would not use the question form for that purpose, you could translate this as a statement or as an exclamation. Alternate translation: [I have done nothing to you that would prevent that]

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
Acknowledgements: The Hebrew text, lemmas, and morphology are all thanks to the OSHB and some of the glosses are from Macula Hebrew.
