Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
(Occurrence 0) the sons of the prophets
(Some words not found in UHB: and,Elisha returned the,Gilgal,to and,the,famine on_the=earth and=the_sons the,prophets sitting before,face/front,him and=he/it_said to,servant,his put_on the,pot the,large and,make stew for,sons the,prophets )
This is an idiom. It does not mean that they were actually the sons of prophets, but rather, that they were a group of prophets. See how you translated this phrase in 2 Kings 2:3. Alternate translation: “the group of men who were prophets”
(Occurrence 0) stew
(Some words not found in UHB: and,Elisha returned the,Gilgal,to and,the,famine on_the=earth and=the_sons the,prophets sitting before,face/front,him and=he/it_said to,servant,his put_on the,pot the,large and,make stew for,sons the,prophets )
This is a dish that is usually made of meat and vegetables cooked in a pot with liquid.
4:38 Like Bethel (2:3) and Jericho (2:5, 15), Gilgal was the center for a group of prophets (2:1). Elisha was the leader of these groups, and thus sat at the head of the table for meals.

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.
