The "heart" refers to the decisions of the whole person. AT: "make up your mind" or "decide firmly" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy)

"not to figure out what you will say in order to defend yourself against their accusations"
I will give you words and wisdom

words and wisdom
These can be combined into one phrase. AT: "words of wisdom" or "wise words" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-hendiadys)
which all your adversaries
This can be the start of a new sentence. AT: "All your adversaries"
which all your adversaries will not be able to resist or contradict
It may be helpful to change the way the negative is used. AT: "none of your adversaries will be able to argue against you or say that you are wrong"
