This is a joke kids sometimes pull on each other.

"Slå deg ned" means "have a seat" but also literally "beat you down".

"før jeg gjør det" means "before I do so"

So, "Have a seat... before I do so."

The trick is to say "slå deg ned" in a friendly manner and then sound slightly intimidating at "før jeg gjør det >:(" which plays with the first part and changes its meaning entirely. So then, 'beat yourself [down], before I do!"

Takk for forklaringen.
I går prøvde jeg å oversette setningen, men så jeg ga opp. Jeg var ikke helt sikker på om jeg forstod riktig. ☺
