Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations.

2:44 they assumed he was among the other travelers: Joseph and Mary were probably traveling with a large caravan of relatives and friends from Galilee. Jesus probably spent a lot of time with his friends and relatives, so his parents were not worried at first.
νομίσαντες δὲ
/having/_thought but
Alternate translation: “But since they thought”
ἦλθον ἡμέρας ὁδὸν
˱they˲_came ˱of˲_/a/_day /the/_journey
Alternate translation: “they traveled as far as people walk in one day”
Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-time-sequential
καὶ ἀνεζήτουν αὐτὸν
and ˱they˲_/were/_seeking_out him
The word translated and at the beginning of this phrase indicates that this event happened after the previous event that the story described. Alternate translation: “then they looked for him”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
καὶ ἀνεζήτουν αὐτὸν
and ˱they˲_/were/_seeking_out him
The implication is that Jesus’ parents looked for him among their friends and relatives once the whole group that was traveling together had stopped for the night. That way they could easily go around among everyone. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state that explicitly. Alternate translation: “and once the group had stopped for the night, then they looked for him”
