TSNTyndale Study Notes:

3:40-51 There were 273 more firstborn sons in Israel (in the non-Levite tribes) than there were Levite males (cp. 3:39). Because the Levites served as substitutes for the firstborn of Israel (3:41; see study note on 3:11-13), a redemption price (3:48) of five pieces of silver (3:47) had to be paid for each of the extra firstborn sons (3:46; cp. Lev 27:6). It is not clear who covered this cost. This provision for a special class of substitutes points to Christ’s role as a substitute; through his death, Christ paid the redemption price for all humanity (see Mark 10:45; Gal 3:13; Eph 1:7; Heb 9:15).


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

תַּ֤חַת כָּל־בְּכוֹר֙ בִּ⁠בְנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל

below/instead_of all/each/any/every firstborn in/on/at/with,sons Yisrael

See how you translated the nearly identical phrase in 3:41.

Note 2 topic: grammar-collectivenouns

בֶּהֱמַ֥ת & בְּהֶמְתָּ֑⁠ם

cattle & cattle,their

See how you translated livestock in 3:13.

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

בְּהֶמְתָּ֑⁠ם

cattle,their

Here Yahweh implies the firstborn male livestock, as stated in 3:41. If it would be helpful in your language you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: “their firstborn male livestock”
