OET (OET-RV) Inside the temple, nine metres at the rear were closed off to make an inner room called ‘the very holy place’. That too had walls made of cedar boards.

DOM (Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_built DOM twenty cubits from,the_innermost_parts_of of,the_house with,boards_of cedar from/more_than the,floor until the,walls and=he/it_built to=him/it from,inside to,an_innermost_room to,the_holy_place_of of,the_holy_places )
By saying that Solomon built 20 cubits, the author means that he built a structure that extended out 20 cubits from the back wall of the temple. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or plain language. Alternate translation: [a structure 20 cubits deep]

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: [the part of the walls near the ceiling] or [the top of the walls]

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_built DOM twenty cubits from,the_innermost_parts_of of,the_house with,boards_of cedar from/more_than the,floor until the,walls and=he/it_built to=him/it from,inside to,an_innermost_room to,the_holy_place_of of,the_holy_places )
The pronoun them refers to the 20 cubits that the author speaks of earlier in this verse, meaning a structure 20 cubits deep. The pronoun it refers to the house or temple. It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers. Alternate translation: [And he built that area 20 cubits deep for the temple]
OET (OET-LV) And_he/it_built DOM twenty cubit[s] from_the_innermost_parts_of[fn] of_the_house with_boards_of cedar(s) from the_floor to the_walls and_he/it_built to_him/it from_inside to_an_innermost_room to_the_holy_place_of the_holy_places.

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.
Acknowledgements: The Hebrew text, lemmas, and morphology are all thanks to the OSHB and some of the glosses are from Macula Hebrew.
