The author is making overstatements for emphasis. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a different way to express the emphasis. The UST models one way to do that.
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis
וַיִּתֵּ֨ן הַמֶּ֧לֶךְ אֶת־הַכֶּ֛סֶף בִּירוּשָׁלִַ֖ם כָּאֲבָנִ֑ים

The author is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You can supply these words from the context if that would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: [And the king made silver in Jerusalem to be like stones for abundance]

The word Shephelah is the name of a place within the territory of the tribe of Judah, the foothills between the highlands and the coastal plain. Alternate translation: [the Judean foothills]

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.
