Six hundred shekels of gold
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_made the=king Shəlomoh two_hundreds large_shields gold hammered six hundreds gold it_will_ascend on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in the,shield the,each )
A shekel is a unit of weight equal to about 11 grams. Alternate translation: “About 6.6 kilograms of gold” or “Six and one half kilograms of gold”
Six hundred shekels

Because the word “shekels” does not appear here in the Hebrew text, some modern versions assume instead the unit of bekah, which was equivalent to only a half shekel. Any version making this assumption would signal a metric equivalent of about three kilograms.
10:14-29 To further describe Solomon’s splendor, the writer builds upon the details of the queen’s visit (10:1-13), describing Solomon’s wise use of wealth in his palace complex (10:14-21) and concluding with the far-reaching effects of Solomon’s wisdom in commercial arrangements (10:22-29).

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
