UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche

וְ⁠הַ⁠יְּהוּדִ֨ים

and,the,Jews

While this expression means “the Jewish people” in most of the book, in the context here and in 2:16 it seems to mean “Jewish leaders.” Nehemiah is describing some members of this people group, its leaders, as if they were the whole group. Alternate translation: “the Jewish leaders”

Note 2 topic: translate-unknown

וְ⁠הַ⁠סְּגָנִ֜ים

and,the,officials

See how you translated this term in 2:16. Alternate translation: “city officials”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

מֵאָ֧ה וַ⁠חֲמִשִּׁ֣ים אִ֗ישׁ & עַל־שֻׁלְחָנִֽ⁠י

hundred and,fifty (a)_man & on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in table,my

Nehemiah is using the word table to refer to the act of feeding people. He is describing that act by reference to something associated with it, the table that the food was served on. Alternate translation: “every day I was responsible to feed 150 Jewish leaders and officials”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

וְ⁠הַ⁠בָּאִ֥ים אֵלֵ֛י⁠נוּ מִן־הַ⁠גּוֹיִ֥ם אֲשֶׁר־סְבִיבֹתֵ֖י⁠נוּ

and,the,came to,us from/more_than the=nations which/who around,us

This likely refers to Jews who lived in other countries but who came to Jerusalem. Their own communities may have sent them as representatives, or they may have come on their own for business or personal reasons. Alternate translation: “and we also fed the Jewish visitors who came from other countries around us”
