and=not (Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_went_out Ḩīrām from,Tyre to=see DOM the,cities which/who he/it_gave to=him/it Shəlomoh/(Solomon) and=not right in,eyes_of,his )
The author is using they were not right in his eyes as a common expression of the culture to mean “they were not acceptable in his judgment” or “they were not satisfactory in his opinion.” If this phrase does not have that meaning in your language, you could use a comparable expression from your language that does have that meaning, or you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [but in his judgment, they were not an appropriate gift]

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.
