uW Translation Notes:

וְ⁠שָׁמְר֣וּ אֶת־מִשְׁמַרְתּ֗⁠וֹ וְ⁠אֶת־מִשְׁמֶ֨רֶת֙

and,perform DOM duties_of,him and=DOM duties_of

In this verse, keep and keeping refer to performing duties for Aaron and all the congregation. The word keeping occurs twice as an emphatic construction in which a verb and its object are related words. See how you translated the similar phrase “keep the keeping” in [1:53](../01/53.md).

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / possession

וְ⁠שָׁמְר֣וּ אֶת־מִשְׁמַרְתּ֗⁠וֹ וְ⁠אֶת־מִשְׁמֶ֨רֶת֙ כָּל־הָ֣⁠עֵדָ֔ה

and,perform DOM duties_of,him and=DOM duties_of all/each/any/every the,community

Here Yahweh uses the possessive forms his and of to indicate that the Levites were supposed to perform their duties for the benefit of Aaron and all the congregation. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a different expression. Alternate translation: “And they shall perform duties for him and for all the congregation”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / personification

לִ⁠פְנֵ֖י

to=(the)_face_of/in_front_of/before

Here Yahweh refers to working in the presence of the tent of meeting as if the tent were a person with a face. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “in the presence of”

Note 4 topic: writing-poetry

לַ⁠עֲבֹ֖ד אֶת־עֲבֹדַ֥ת

by,do DOM work_of

The phrase serve the service is a construction in which a verb and its object are related words. You may be able to use the same construction in your language to express the meaning here. Alternatively, your language may have another way of showing the emphasis.

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

לַ⁠עֲבֹ֖ד

by,do

Here, to indicates that what follows is the means by which the Levites help Aaron and all the congregation. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: “by means of serving”

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.

Acknowledgements: The Hebrew text, lemmas, and morphology are all thanks to the OSHB and some of the glosses are from Macula Hebrew.
