Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet

δῶρά τε καὶ θυσίαι

gifts both and sacrifices

Here, the words gifts and sacrifices function together to refer to anything that an Israelite would have offered to God. It is probable that sacrifices refers to animals that would be killed and offered to God, while gifts identifies anything else that a person would give to God. If you do not have two words for these categories, you could use a single word or phrase to refer to what an Israelite would offer to God. See you how you translated the same phrase in 8:3. Alternate translation: [sacrifices] or [things presented to God]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

δῶρά τε καὶ θυσίαι προσφέρονται

gifts both and sacrifices /are_being/_offered

If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. The author uses the passive form here to focus on what is being offered rather than on the people doing the offering. If you must state who did the action, the author implies that the Israelites, or more specifically the priests, did it. Alternate translation: [the priests offer both gifts and sacrifices] or [they offer both gifts and sacrifices]

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / genericnoun

τὸν λατρεύοντα

the ¬which the_‹one› serving

Here the author is speaking of “worshipers” in general, not of one particular worshiper. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a form that refers to “worshipers” in general. Alternate translation: [the worshipers] or [any worshiper]
