Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / events

וַ⁠תִּכֹּ֥ן מַלְכֻת֖⁠וֹ

(Some words not found in UHB: and,Solomon sat on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in throne_of Dāvid his/its=father and,it_was_established reign_of,his very )

The expression was established is a passive verbal form. If your language would not use that form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. If you need to say who does the action, the context indicates that it is God. Alternate translation: [and Yahweh established his kingdom]
