UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

וְ⁠אֶחָי⁠ו֙ רָאשִׁ֣ים לְ⁠אָב֔וֹת

and,associates,his heads of,families

In this case, his brothers seems to be a figurative way of saying “his fellow leaders,” since the list specifies that these associates of Adaiah were leaders of clans. Alternate translation: “the family leaders who helped him”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

רָאשִׁ֣ים לְ⁠אָב֔וֹת

heads of,families

As in 7:70 and 8:13, this seems to be an abbreviated way of saying “the heads of father’s houses.” The full expression “house of the father” or “father’s house” is used in 7:61. See how you translated it there, and review the note there if that would be helpful. Alternate translation: “clan leaders”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

רָאשִׁ֣ים

heads

Here, head is a figurative way of saying leader. Alternate translation: “leaders”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

מָאתַ֖יִם אַרְבָּעִ֣ים וּ⁠שְׁנָ֑יִם

two_hundreds forty and,two

It seems unlikely that there were 242 family leaders assisting Adaiah. Rather, in context, this seems to be the number of priests that Adaiah and the family leaders who helped him were responsible for. Alternate translation: “they were responsible for 242 priests”

Note 5 topic: translate-numbers

מָאתַ֖יִם אַרְבָּעִ֣ים וּ⁠שְׁנָ֑יִם

two_hundreds forty and,two

“two hundred and forty-two men”

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

וַ⁠עֲמַשְׁסַ֧י

and,Amashsai

The implication is that Amashsai was another leader of the priests who settled in Jerusalem. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could say that explicitly. Alternate translation: “Another leader of the priests who settled in Jerusalem was Amashsai”

Note 7 topic: translate-names

וַ⁠עֲמַשְׁסַ֧י בֶּן־עֲזַרְאֵ֛ל בֶּן־אַחְזַ֥י בֶּן־מְשִׁלֵּמ֖וֹת בֶּן־אִמֵּֽר

and,Amashsai son_of Azarel son_of Ahzai son_of Meshillemoth son_of ʼImmēr

These are the names of five men. In this context, “son” means literally that the next man named is the father of the man just named.
