uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

עֲבֹדַ֥ת בְּנֵי־קְהָ֖ת

work_of sons_of Qəhāt

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of service, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “is what the sons of Kohath will do to serve”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

בְּנֵי־קְהָ֖ת

sons_of Qəhāt

See how you translated this phrase in [4:2](../04/02.md).

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

קֹ֖דֶשׁ הַ⁠קֳּדָשִֽׁים

most_holy_of the,holy_things

Yahweh is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You could supply these words from the context if it would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: “concerning the holiest holy things”

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

4:1-49 This section expands the discussion begun in 3:21-37 on the duties of the three clans of Levites. The Levites—on the march and encamped—carried and cared for the Tabernacle and were always surrounded by the other tribes so that they and their precious cargo would be safe (2:17). The sacred things associated with God were placed in the middle of the tribes, and the role of the priests and their Levitical assistants was to keep them holy by keeping them separate.
• God, in his holiness, is worthy of attention to the details of his will. His Tabernacle and its furnishings were sacred, and the tribe of Levi was responsible to maintain the distinction between holy and common, between clean and unclean. This explains why so much information is provided about the duties of the three clans of Levites.

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.
