כְּהֻנָּ֖ה
priesthood
Here, the priesthood means the official office of priest. Alternate translation: “the duty of being priests”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
וְהָיְתָ֥ה לָהֶ֛ם כְּהֻנָּ֖ה
and,be to/for=them priesthood
The duty of being priests will also belong to the descendants of Aaron’s sons. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could express that explicitly. Alternate translation: “And the priesthood will belong to them and their descendants”
לְחֻקַּ֣ת עוֹלָ֑ם
by,statute lasting
Alternate translation: “a law that will not end.” See how you translated this in Exodus 28:43.
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
וּמִלֵּאתָ֥ יַֽד־אַהֲרֹ֖ן וְיַד־בָּנָֽיו
and,you_shall_ordain hand_of ʼAhₐron and,hand_of sons,his
The phrase, fill the hand, seems to be an idiom for giving authority to someone. See how you translated this in Exodus 28:41. Alternate translation: “And you shall ordain Aaron and his sons”
וּמִלֵּאתָ֥ יַֽד־אַהֲרֹ֖ן וְיַד־בָּנָֽיו
and,you_shall_ordain hand_of ʼAhₐron and,hand_of sons,his
The phrase, fill the hand may be (1) a summary and reminder statement of the whole ordination process, (2) referring to the previous description, meaning that the priests have been ordained, or (3) referring to the following description, meaning that the priests are about to be ordained. It would probably be best to translate this in the way a mid-text summary reminder phrase would be spoken in your language, avoiding any indication that it refers only to the previous or following text.
29:9 forever: The fulfillment of this promise, as with the one to David, clearly leads beyond the merely human. Aaron’s own behavior was less than sterling (e.g., ch 32; Num 11), and the behavior of his sons and descendants was no better (1 Sam 2:12-17; Isa 28:7; Ezek 8:15-16; Mal 2:1-9). The promise could only find its ultimate fulfillment in Jesus Christ (see Heb 7:26; 9:11).
• To ordain (literally to fill the hands) means to give a person a task to perform.

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