Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / quotesinquotes
εἶπεν & τῷ πατρί, Πάτερ, δός μοι τὸ ἐπιβάλλον μέρος τῆς οὐσίας
said & ˱to˲_the father Father give ˱to˲_me the breaking_down portion ˱of˲_the estate
If it would be helpful in your language, you could translate this so that there is not a quotation within a quotation. Alternate translation: “told his father that he wanted the share of the estate that he would inherit”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / imperative
δός μοι
give ˱to˲_me
The son wanted his father to give him his inheritance immediately. If your language has a command form that indicates that the speaker wants something done immediately, it would be appropriate to use that form here.
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
τὸ ἐπιβάλλον μέρος τῆς οὐσίας
the breaking_down portion ˱of˲_the estate
This is an idiom. Alternate translation: “the part of your wealth that you intend to leave to me when you die” or “the share of the estate that I would inherit”
