Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / hyperbole
וְכָל־עֲדַ֤ת יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ הַנּוֹעָדִ֣ים עָלָ֔יו
and=all congregation_of (Some words not found in UHB: and,the,king Shəlomoh/(Solomon) and=all congregation_of Yisrael [who,were]_gathered on/upon/above=him/it with=him/it to=(the)_face_of/in_front_of/before the,ark sacrificing flock_of_sheep/goats and,cattle which/who not counted and=not numbered from,multitude )
The author is saying all as a generalization for emphasis. He clarifies in the next phrase that he means specifically all those Israelites who had congregated themselves in Jerusalem for this occasion. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a different way to express the emphasis. Alternate translation: [and the great crowd of Israelites who had congregated themselves to him]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
לִפְנֵ֣י הָֽאָר֑וֹן
to=(the)_face_of/in_front_of/before the,ark
Here, to the face of represents being in front of the Box. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or plain language. Alternate translation: [in front of the Box]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet
אֲשֶׁ֧ר לֹֽא־יִסָּפְר֛וּ וְלֹ֥א יִמָּנ֖וּ
(Some words not found in UHB: and,the,king Shəlomoh/(Solomon) and=all congregation_of Yisrael [who,were]_gathered on/upon/above=him/it with=him/it to=(the)_face_of/in_front_of/before the,ark sacrificing flock_of_sheep/goats and,cattle which/who not counted and=not numbered from,multitude )
The expressions were not counted and were not numbered mean similar things. The author is using the two expressions together for emphasis. If it would be clearer for your readers, you could express the emphasis with a single phrase. Alternate translation: [that could not be counted at all]
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
אֲשֶׁ֧ר לֹֽא־יִסָּפְר֛וּ וְלֹ֥א יִמָּנ֖וּ
(Some words not found in UHB: and,the,king Shəlomoh/(Solomon) and=all congregation_of Yisrael [who,were]_gathered on/upon/above=him/it with=him/it to=(the)_face_of/in_front_of/before the,ark sacrificing flock_of_sheep/goats and,cattle which/who not counted and=not numbered from,multitude )
The expressions were not counted and were not numbered are passive verbal forms. If your language would not use such forms, you could express these ideas with active forms or in another way that would be natural in your language. Alternate translation: [that no one could count or number] or [that no one could count at all]

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.
