uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

וּ⁠שְׁלֹשׁ־מֵא֤וֹת מָֽגִנִּים֙ זָהָ֣ב שָׁח֔וּט

(Some words not found in UHB: and=three hundreds small_shields gold hammered three_of minas gold it_will_ascend on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in the,shield (the),one and,he,put_them the=king house_of forest_of of_(the),Lebanon )

The expression beaten-gold shields uses a passive verbal form. If your language would not use that form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [And he had his workers make 300 shields by beating out gold]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

שְׁלֹ֤שֶׁת מָנִים֙ זָהָ֔ב יַעֲלֶ֖ה עַל־הַ⁠מָּגֵ֣ן הָ⁠אֶחָ֑ת

(Some words not found in UHB: and=three hundreds small_shields gold hammered three_of minas gold it_will_ascend on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in the,shield (the),one and,he,put_them the=king house_of forest_of of_(the),Lebanon )

See how you translated the similar expression in the previous verse. Alternate translation: [three minas of gold went into making each shield] or [each shield contained three minas of gold]

Note 3 topic: translate-bweight

שְׁלֹ֤שֶׁת מָנִים֙ זָהָ֔ב

(Some words not found in UHB: and=three hundreds small_shields gold hammered three_of minas gold it_will_ascend on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in the,shield (the),one and,he,put_them the=king house_of forest_of of_(the),Lebanon )

These three gold minas would have weighed about one and a half kilograms or a little over three pounds. See how you decided to express the weight of 600 gold shekels that the author describes in the previous verse.
