Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
וּשְׁאָ֣ר הָעָ֡ם
(Some words not found in UHB: Malluch Harim Baˊₐnāh )
This means everyone else in the groups that are listed next, even if they did not sign the covenant personally. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could say this explicitly. Alternate translation: “And everyone else in the following groups, whether or not they signed their name on the scroll”
Note 2 topic: translate-unknown
הַשּׁוֹעֲרִ֨ים
(Some words not found in UHB: Malluch Harim Baˊₐnāh )
This means the people who were responsible to open and close the gates that controlled access to the city and the temple. See how you translated this term in 7:1.
Note 3 topic: translate-unknown
הַמְשֹׁרְרִ֜ים
(Some words not found in UHB: Malluch Harim Baˊₐnāh )
As in 7:1, this means vocal musicians who led in worship, in processions, and ceremonies, producing music and chants that emphasized and enhanced the occasion. Alternate translation: “the singers”
Note 4 topic: translate-unknown
הַנְּתִינִ֗ים
(Some words not found in UHB: Malluch Harim Baˊₐnāh )
As in 3:26, the term Nethinim describes servants who worked in the temple. Alternate translation: “the temple servants”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
וְֽכָל־הַנִּבְדָּ֞ל מֵעַמֵּ֤י הָאֲרָצוֹת֙ אֶל־תּוֹרַ֣ת הָאֱלֹהִ֔ים
(Some words not found in UHB: Malluch Harim Baˊₐnāh )
This could mean one of two things. (1) It could be referring to people from other nations who had converted and become Jews. Alternate translation: “people from other nations who had become Jews and would now obey the law of God” (2) It might not be a reference to a distinct group, but rather a description of something that was true of everyone from any of the previously named groups who agreed to the covenant. As in 9:2, it would be a description of how the Israelites needed to reject the influence and practices of other people groups in order to follow the law of God faithfully. Alternate translation: “that is, everyone who resolved to reject foreign influences and obey the law of God”
Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
הַנִּבְדָּ֞ל מֵעַמֵּ֤י הָאֲרָצוֹת֙
(Some words not found in UHB: Malluch Harim Baˊₐnāh )
Separate is a figurative way of describing the act of rejecting an influence, as if this were a physical separation. In 9:2 the separation actually was physical (only Israelites could attend that assembly), but here it would be figurative. Alternate translation: “resolved to reject foreign influences”
Note 7 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
בְּנֵיהֶ֣ם וּבְנֹתֵיהֶ֑ם כֹּ֖ל יוֹדֵ֥עַ מֵבִֽין
(Some words not found in UHB: Malluch Harim Baˊₐnāh )
Like the similar phrases in 8:2 and 8:3, this is likely an idiom that refers to children who could understand what the covenant was about. Alternate translation: “their children who were old enough to understand the covenant” or “all who were old enough to understand what promising to obey God meant”
