וּ⁠מֵֽ⁠רָאשֵׁ֣י הָֽ⁠אָב֗וֹת נָֽתְנוּ֙ לְ⁠אוֹצַ֣ר הַ⁠מְּלָאכָ֔ה

(Some words not found in UHB: and=which gave rest the,people gold darics two(fd) ten_thousand and,silver minas 2,000 and,garments priests sixty and=seven )

As in 7:70, the heads of the fathers seems to be an abbreviated way of saying “the heads of father’s houses.” See how you translated that expression in 7:61, and review the note there if that would be helpful. Alternate translation: “Some of the clan leaders donated to the temple treasury”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

וּ⁠מֵֽ⁠רָאשֵׁ֣י

(Some words not found in UHB: and=which gave rest the,people gold darics two(fd) ten_thousand and,silver minas 2,000 and,garments priests sixty and=seven )

Head here is a figurative way of saying “leader.” Alternate translation: “leaders”

(Some words not found in UHB: and=which gave rest the,people gold darics two(fd) ten_thousand and,silver minas 2,000 and,garments priests sixty and=seven )

See the note about darics in verse 7:70. Alternate translation: “20,000 gold coins”

(Some words not found in UHB: and=which gave rest the,people gold darics two(fd) ten_thousand and,silver minas 2,000 and,garments priests sixty and=seven )

In ancient times, a silver mina weighed about half a kilogram or about 1.25 pounds. However, as in the case of darics, it would probably be best to say something general like “2,200 silver bars,” or give the equivalent weight, or use the biblical term and give the equivalent weight in a note.
