Note 1 topic: writing-pronouns
καὶ ἰδόντες αὐτὸν
and /having/_seen him
Alternate translation: “When Mary and Joseph found Jesus there”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion
τί ἐποίησας ἡμῖν οὕτως?
why ˱you˲_did ˱to˲_us thus
Mary is using the question form to rebuke Jesus indirectly for not going back home with them, causing them to worry about him. If it would be helpful in your language, you could translate her words as a statement or exclamation. Alternate translation: “you should not have done this to us!”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
ἰδοὺ
behold
Mary uses Behold to get Jesus to focus his attention on what she is about to say. Alternate translation: “Listen carefully now”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
ὁ πατήρ σου κἀγὼ, ὀδυνώμενοι ζητοῦμεν σε
the father ˱of˲_you and_I /being/_distressed (Some words not found in SR-GNT: καὶ ἰδόντες αὐτὸν ἐξεπλάγησαν καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτὸν ἡ μήτηρ αὐτοῦ τέκνον τί ἐποίησας ἡμῖν οὕτως ἰδοὺ ὁ πατήρ σου κἀγὼ ὀδυνώμενοι ζητοῦμέν σε)
If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the idea behind the passive verbal form have been tormented with an adverb. Alternate translation: “your father and I have been searching for you anxiously”
2:41-51 Jesus’ visit to Jerusalem when he was twelve is the only account from Jesus’ childhood recorded in the Gospels. Its main theme is Jesus’ early spiritual insight, including his growing awareness both of his unique father-son relationship with God and of his unique mission.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Greek words that they’re translated from.
