OET (OET-RV) Didn’t you people drive out the Levites, as well as Yahweh’s priests who were Aharon’s descendants? Then you appointed for yourselves ‘priests’ like they have in other countries, so that anyone who comes to consecrate himself by bringing a young bull from the herd and seven rams can become a ‘priest’ of your non-gods.

OET-LV Not have _you(pl)_driven _out DOM the _priests _of YHWH DOM the _descendants _of ʼAhₐron and_the_Lēviyyiy and_you(pl)_have _appointed to/for_you(pl) priests like_the _peoples _of the _lands every _of (the)_one_who_comes to_fill his/its_hand with_a _young _bull a _young _one _of the_herd and_rams seven and_it _was a _priest to_not gods.

UST But you drove out the priests that Yahweh appointed, men who are descendants of Aaron the first high priest.

But what kind of priest is he? He is consecrated to serve idols that are not gods at all!
