(Some words not found in UHB: and=all the=earth/land sought DOM face/surface_of Shəlomoh to,hear DOM wisdom,his which/who he/it_gave ʼElohīm in/on/at/with,heart,his )
The presence of the person is a metonym for being able to speak and listen to the person. Alternate translation: “sought an audience with Solomon” or “wanted to visit Solomon”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
to hear his wisdom, which God had put in his heart
(Some words not found in UHB: and=all the=earth/land sought DOM face/surface_of Shəlomoh to,hear DOM wisdom,his which/who he/it_gave ʼElohīm in/on/at/with,heart,his )
The heart is a metonym for what a person thinks and is spoken of as if it were a container. Here, wisdom is spoken of as if it were an object that could be put in a container and can be translated as an adjective. It can be a metonym for either the person or the words the person speaks. If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea behind the word wisdom, you can express the same idea with a verbal form. Alternate translation: “to hear his wisdom, which God had given him” or “to hear how wise God had enabled him to be” or “to hear him speak the wise words that God had enabled him to speak”
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.
