Your language may have a comparable expression that you can use in your translation, or you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [the descendants of Israel]

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of keeping, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: [to keep]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
לְמֵ֥י נִדָּ֖ה
to,water_of impurity
Here, the word translated impurity could refer to: (1) the quality of being unclean. In this case, the water is meant to be used to make pure things that are impure. Alternate translation: [for water to be used in cases of impurity] or [for water to cleanse impurity] (2) the act of sprinkling. Alternate translation: [for water for sprinkling]
Note 5 topic: translate-unknown
לְמֵ֥י נִדָּ֖ה

The water of impurity is a kind of ritual cleansing water made by mixing the ashes of the cow with fresh water.
