OET (OET-RV) and the seven priests holding the seven rams’ horns went in front of it—blowing the horns as they kept walking. The soldiers walking in front of them, and the rear guard walked behind Yahweh’s box while the horns were being blown.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / reduplication
הֹלְכִ֣ים הָל֔וֹךְ
passed_on went_forward
The author is repeating the verb walking in order to intensify the idea that it expresses. If your language can repeat words for intensification, it would be appropriate to do that here in your translation. If not, your language may have another way of expressing the emphasis. Alternate translation: “were walking continually”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

The author is leaving out some of the words that a sentence would need in many languages to be complete. If your readers might misunderstand this, you could supply these words from the context. Alternate translation: “while the priests were walking and blowing on the shofars”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / hendiadys
הָל֖וֹךְ וְתָק֥וֹעַ בַּשּׁוֹפָרֽוֹת
(Some words not found in UHB: and=seven the,priests carrying seven trumpets the,rams'_horns to=(the)_face_of/in_front_of/before ark YHWH passed_on went_forward and,blowing in/on/at/with,trumpets and,the,armed went in,front,them and,the,rear_guard came after ark YHWH continually and,blew in/on/at/with,trumpets )
The author may be expressing a single idea by using two words connected with and. While the priests actually were walking and blowing on the shofars at the same time, the word walking might be describing in what way the priests were blowing, that is, continually. Alternate translation: “blowing continually on the shofars”

6:13 Variant note: הולך: (x-qere) ’הָל֖וֹךְ’: lemma_1980 n_0.0 morph_HVqa id_06o3f הָל֖וֹךְ
OET (OET-RV) and the seven priests holding the seven rams’ horns went in front of it—blowing the horns as they kept walking. The soldiers walking in front of them, and the rear guard walked behind Yahweh’s box while the horns were being blown.
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.
