٢ أخبار 4

١ 1 وَعَمِلَ مَذْبَحَ نُحَاسٍ طُولُهُ عِشْرُونَ ذِرَاعًا، وَعَرْضُهُ عِشْرُونَ ذِرَاعًا، وَٱرْتِفَاعُهُ عَشَرُ أَذْرُعٍ.

Moreover he made an altar of bronze; its length was twenty cubits, and its width was twenty cubits. Its height was ten cubits.

٢ 2 وَعَمِلَ ٱلْبَحْرَ مَسْبُوكًا عَشَرَ أَذْرُعٍ مِنْ شَفَتِهِ إِلَى شَفَتِهِ، وَكَانَ مُدَوَّرًا مُسْتَدِيرًا وَٱرْتِفَاعُهُ خَمْسُ أَذْرُعٍ، وَخَيْطٌ ثَلَاثُونَ ذِرَاعًا يُحِيطُ بِدَائِرِهِ.

He also made the round sea of cast metal, ten cubits from brim to brim. Its height was five cubits, and the sea was thirty cubits in circumference.

٣ 3 وَشِبْهُ قِثَّاءٍ تَحْتَهُ مُسْتَدِيرًا يُحِيطُ بِهِ عَلَى ٱسْتِدَارَتِهِ، لِلذِّرَاعِ عَشَرٌ تُحِيطُ بِٱلْبَحْرِ مُسْتَدِيرَةً، وَٱلْقِثَّاءُ صَفَّانِ قَدْ سُبِكَتْ بِسَبْكِهِ،

Under the brim encircling the sea were bulls, ten to each cubit, cast in one piece with the sea when the sea itself was cast.

٤ 4 كَانَ قَائِمًا عَلَى ٱثْنَيْ عَشَرَ ثَوْرًا، ثَلَاثَةٌ مُتَّجِهَةٌ إِلَى ٱلشِّمَالِ، وَثَلَاثَةٌ مُتَّجِهَةٌ إِلَى ٱلْغَرْبِ، وَثَلَاثَةٌ مُتَّجِهَةٌ إِلَى ٱلْجَنُوبِ، وَثَلَاثَةٌ مُتَّجِهَةٌ إِلَى ٱلشَّرْقِ، وَٱلْبَحْرُ عَلَيْهَا مِنْ فَوْقُ، وَجَمِيعُ أَعْجَازِهَا إِلَى دَاخِلٍ.

The large basin known as “The Sea” was set upon twelve oxen, three looking toward the north, three looking toward the west, three looking toward the south, and three looking toward the east. “The Sea” was set on top of them, and all their hindquarters were toward the inside.

٥ 5 وَغِلَظُهُ شِبْرٌ، وَشَفَتُهُ كَعَمَلِ شَفَةِ كَأْسٍ بِزَهْرِ سَوْسَنٍّ. يَأْخُذُ وَيَسَعُ ثَلَاثَةَ آلَافِ بَثٍّ.

“The Sea” was as thick as the width of a hand, and its brim was forged like the brim of a cup, like a lily blossom. “The Sea” held three thousand baths of water.

٦ 6 وَعَمِلَ عَشَرَ مَرَاحِضَ، وَجَعَلَ خَمْسًا عَنِ ٱلْيَمِينِ وَخَمْسًا عَنِ ٱلْيَسَارِ، لِلِٱغْتِسَالِ فِيهَا. كَانُوا يَغْسِلُونَ فِيهَا مَا يُقَرِّبُونَهُ مُحْرَقَةً، وَٱلْبَحْرُ لِكَيْ يَغْتَسِلَ فِيهِ ٱلْكَهَنَةُ.

He made also ten basins for washing things; he put five on the south side, and five on the north; items used in performing the burnt offering were to be washed in them. The large basin known as “The Sea” was used by the priests for them to wash.

٧ 7 وَعَمِلَ مَنَائِرَ ذَهَبٍ عَشَرًا كَرَسْمِهَا، وَجَعَلَهَا فِي ٱلْهَيْكَلِ، خَمْسًا عَنِ ٱلْيَمِينِ وَخَمْسًا عَنِ ٱلْيَسَارِ.

He made the ten lampstands of gold that were made from the instructions for their design; he placed them in the temple, five on the right hand, and five on the left.

٨ 8 وَعَمِلَ عَشَرَ مَوَائِدَ وَوَضَعَهَا فِي ٱلْهَيْكَلِ، خَمْسًا عَنِ ٱلْيَمِينِ وَخَمْسًا عَنِ ٱلْيَسَارِ. وَعَمِلَ مِئَةَ مِنْضَحَةٍ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ.

He made ten tables and placed them in the temple, five on the right side, and five on the left. He made one hundred basins of gold.

٩ 9 وَعَمِلَ دَارَ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ وَٱلدَّارَ ٱلْعَظِيمَةَ وَمَصَارِيعَ ٱلدَّارِ، وَغَشَّى مَصَارِيعَهَا بِنُحَاسٍ.

Furthermore he made the courtyard of the priests, and the great court and the doors for the court and overlaid their doors with bronze.

١٠ 10 وَجَعَلَ ٱلْبَحْرَ إِلَى ٱلْجَانِبِ ٱلْأَيْمَنِ إِلَى ٱلشَّرْقِ مِنْ جِهَةِ ٱلْجَنُوبِ.

He placed the basin known as “The Sea” on the east side of the temple, facing toward the south.

١١ 11 وَعَمِلَ حُورَامُ ٱلْقُدُورَ وَٱلرُّفُوشَ وَٱلْمَنَاضِحَ. وَٱنْتَهَى حُورَامُ مِنْ عَمَلِ ٱلْعَمَلِ ٱلَّذِي صَنَعَهُ لِلْمَلِكِ سُلَيْمَانَ فِي بَيْتِ ٱللهِ:

Huram made the pots, the shovels, and the sprinkling bowls. So Huram finished the work that he did for King Solomon in the house of God:

١٢ 12 ٱلْعَمُودَيْنِ وَكُرَتَيِ ٱلتَّاجَيْنِ عَلَى رَأْسَيِ ٱلْعَمُودَيْنِ، وَٱلشَّبَكَتَيْنِ لِتَغْطِيَةِ كُرَتَيِ ٱلتَّاجَيْنِ ٱللَّذَيْنِ عَلَى رَأْسَيِ ٱلْعَمُودَيْنِ،

the two pillars, the bowl-like capitals that were on top of the two pillars, and the two sets of decorative latticework to cover the two bowl-like capitals that were on top of the pillars.

١٣ 13 وَٱلرُّمَّانَاتِ ٱلْأَرْبَعِ مِئَةٍ لِلشَّبَكَتَيْنِ، صَفَّيْ رُمَّانٍ لِلشَّبَكَةِ ٱلْوَاحِدَةِ لِتَغْطِيَةِ كُرَتَيِ ٱلتَّاجَيْنِ ٱللَّذَيْنِ عَلَى ٱلْعَمُودَيْنِ.

He had made the four hundred pomegranates for the two sets of decorative latticework: two rows of pomegranates for each set of latticework to cover the two bowl-like capitals that were on the pillars.

١٤ 14 وَعَمِلَ ٱلْقَوَاعِدَ وَعَمِلَ ٱلْمَرَاحِضَ عَلَى ٱلْقَوَاعِدِ،

He also made the stands and the basins to go on the stands;

١٥ 15 وَٱلْبَحْرَ ٱلْوَاحِدَ وَٱلِٱثْنَيْ عَشَرَ ثَوْرًا تَحْتَهُ،

one sea and the twelve bulls under it,

١٦ 16 وَٱلْقُدُورَ وَٱلرُّفُوشَ وَٱلْمَنَاشِلَ وَكُلَّ آنِيَتِهَا، عَمِلَهَا لِلْمَلِكِ سُلَيْمَانَ «حُورَامُ أَبِي» لِبَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ مِنْ نُحَاسٍ مَجْلِيٍّ.

also the pots, shovels, meat forks, and all the other implements that Huram-Abi made of polished bronze for King Solomon, for the house of Yahweh.

١٧ 17 فِي غَوْرِ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ سَبَكَهَا ٱلْمَلِكُ فِي أَرْضِ ٱلْخَزَفِ بَيْنَ سُكُّوتَ وَصَرَدَةَ.

The king had cast them in the plain of the Jordan, in the clay ground between Succoth and Zarethan.

١٨ 18 وَعَمِلَ سُلَيْمَانُ كُلَّ هَذِهِ ٱلْآنِيَةِ كَثِيرَةً جِدًّا لِأَنَّهُ لَمْ يُتَحَقَّقْ وَزْنُ ٱلنُّحَاسِ.

Thus Solomon made all these vessels in great abundance; indeed, the weight of the bronze could not be known.

١٩ 19 وَعَمِلَ سُلَيْمَانُ كُلَّ ٱلْآنِيَةِ ٱلَّتِي لِبَيْتِ ٱللهِ، وَمَذْبَحَ ٱلذَّهَبِ وَٱلْمَوَائِدَ وَعَلَيْهَا خُبْزُ ٱلْوُجُوهِ،

Solomon made all the furnishings that were in the house of God, the golden altar also, and the tables on which the bread of the presence was to be placed;

٢٠ 20 وَٱلْمَنَائِرَ وَسُرُجَهَا لِتَتَّقِدَ حَسَبَ ٱلْمَرْسُومِ أَمَامَ ٱلْمِحْرَابِ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ خَالِصٍ.

the lampstands with their lamps, that were designed to burn before the inner room—these were made of pure gold;

٢١ 21 وَٱلْأَزْهَارَ وَٱلسُّرُجَ وَٱلْمَلَاقِطَ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ. وَهُوَ ذَهَبٌ كَامِلٌ.

and the flowers, the lamps, and the tongs, of gold, pure gold.

٢٢ 22 وَٱلْمَقَاصَّ وَٱلْمَنَاضِحَ وَٱلصُّحُونَ وَٱلْمَجَامِرَ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ خَالِصٍ، وَبَابَ ٱلْبَيْتِ وَمَصَارِيعَهُ ٱلدَّاخِلِيَّةَ لِقُدْسِ ٱلْأَقْدَاسِ وَمَصَارِيعَ بَيْتِ ٱلْهَيْكَلِ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ.

Also the lamp trimmers, basins, spoons, and incense burners were all made of pure gold. As for the entrance into the house, its inner doors into the most holy place and the doors of the house, that is, of the temple, were made of gold.
