The sons of the prophets
This does not mean that they were the sons of prophets, but rather, that they were a group of prophets. AT: "A group of men who were prophets" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-idiom)
As Yahweh lives, and as you live, I will not leave you
"As surely as Yahweh lives and as you live, I will not leave you." Here Elisha compares the certainty that Yahweh and Elijah are alive to the certainty of what he is saying. This is a way of making a solemn promise. See how you translated this phrase in 2 Kings 2:2. AT: "I solemnly promise you that I will not leave you" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-simile)
