וְ⁠הַ⁠גּוֹרָל֨וֹת הִפַּ֜לְנוּ

A lot was a physical object that was used in various ways to make a selection among different possibilities. Use the term in your language that would best describe such an object for your readers.

Here again the covenant speaks of the temple as the “house of God,” as if it were God’s dwelling place. Alternate translation: “the temple”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

לְ⁠בֵית־אֲבֹתֵ֛י⁠נוּ

This seems to be an abbreviated way of saying “our father’s houses.” The full expression “father’s house” or “house of the father” is used in 7:61. See how you translated it there, and review the note there if that would be helpful. Alternate translation: “taking turns by clan”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

לְ⁠בַעֵ֗ר

Burning is an abstract noun that describes how the wood these families agreed to bring to the temple would be used for fuel for the sacrifices offered on the altar. If it would be helpful in your language, you could translate the idea behind it with a verb such as “burn.” You could also say who would do the action. Alternate translation: “for the Levites to burn”
