Es una expresión hecha, equivalente a "¡por favor, te lo ruego!"

Una traducción casi literal sería "for the sake of the thing you love the most".

And the contrary,

¡No, por lo que más quieras! = Not on your life!


¡Por lo que más quieras, deja ese tema! = for God's sake, change the subject!

Also,

for pity’s sake

or

for God’s sake!
