OET (OET-RV) So please give your servant the ability to listen to your people and to judge them well—discerning between good and evil, because who’s able to judge your people—that’s a heavy task.”

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

לֵ֤ב שֹׁמֵ֨עַ֙

heart (Some words not found in UHB: and,you_will_give to,servant_of,your heart understanding to,judge DOM people_of,your to,distinguish between good and,evil that/for/because/then/when who? he/it_would_be_able to,judge DOM people_of,your (the),massive (the),this )

In this context, the term heart represents either the thoughts or the will. The phrase a hearing heart could mean: (1) a mind that is able to listen well to both sides of an argument or legal dispute and recognize which one is correct. Alternate translation: [a discriminating mind] or (2) a will that is attentive and yielded to God’s guidance and promptings. Alternate translation: [a yielded will]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

לְ⁠הָבִ֖ין בֵּֽין־ט֣וֹב לְ⁠רָ֑ע

to,distinguish (Some words not found in UHB: and,you_will_give to,servant_of,your heart understanding to,judge DOM people_of,your to,distinguish between good and,evil that/for/because/then/when who? he/it_would_be_able to,judge DOM people_of,your (the),massive (the),this )

If your language does not use abstract nouns for the ideas of good and evil, you could express the same ideas in other ways. Alternate translation: [to recognize when people are doing something good and when they are doing something evil]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

כִּ֣י מִ֤י יוּכַל֙ לִ⁠שְׁפֹּ֔ט אֶת־עַמְּ⁠ךָ֥ הַ⁠כָּבֵ֖ד הַ⁠זֶּֽה

(Some words not found in UHB: and,you_will_give to,servant_of,your heart understanding to,judge DOM people_of,your to,distinguish between good and,evil that/for/because/then/when who? he/it_would_be_able to,judge DOM people_of,your (the),massive (the),this )

Solomon is using the question form to emphasize that he is not capable of judging so many people. If a speaker of your language would not use the question form for that purpose, you could translate this as a statement or as an exclamation. Alternate translation: [For I do not feel able to judge this your heavy people!]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

כִּ֣י מִ֤י יוּכַל֙ לִ⁠שְׁפֹּ֔ט אֶת־עַמְּ⁠ךָ֥ הַ⁠כָּבֵ֖ד הַ⁠זֶּֽה

(Some words not found in UHB: and,you_will_give to,servant_of,your heart understanding to,judge DOM people_of,your to,distinguish between good and,evil that/for/because/then/when who? he/it_would_be_able to,judge DOM people_of,your (the),massive (the),this )

In this context, the term heavy could mean: (1) that judging God’s people was an important responsibility that felt to Solomon as if it were a burden that he would be carrying. Alternate translation: [For who is able to bear the important responsibility of judging this your people] or (2) that the Israelites are a great people in the sense of being numerous, as the previous verse describes. Alternate translation: [For who is able to judge such a numerous people as yours]
