(Some words not found in UHB: cursing lies with wife_of his/its=father that/for/because/then/when violated bed_of his/its=father and=saying(ms) all/each/any/every the,people amen )
The phrase the wife of his father refers to a woman who is married to a man’s father but who is not the man’s mother. Your language may have its own term or expression for this relationship. Alternate translation: [his stepmother]
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
גִלָּ֖ה כְּנַ֣ף אָבִ֑יו
(Some words not found in UHB: cursing lies with wife_of his/its=father that/for/because/then/when violated bed_of his/its=father and=saying(ms) all/each/any/every the,people amen )
The Levites are using uncovered the hem of his father as a common expression of their culture to mean “disrespect his father by violating his father’s marriage rights.” If this phrase does not have that meaning in your language, you could use a comparable expression from your language that does have that meaning, or you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [has disrespected his father]

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
