Første Kongebog 6
1 480 År efter at Israeliterne var vandret ud af Ægypten, i Ziv Måned, det er den anden Måned, i det fjerde År Salomo herskede i Israel, begyndte han at bygge HERREN Templet.
And in the foure hundreth and foure score yeere (after the children of Israel were come out of the land of Egypt) and in the fourth yere of the reigne of Salomon ouer Israel, in the moneth Zif, (which is the second moneth) he built the house of the Lord.
2 Templet, som Kong Salomo byggede HERREN, var tresindstyve Alen langt, tyve Alen bredt og tredive Alen højt.
And the house which King Salomon built for the Lord, was three score cubites long, and twentie broade, and thirtie cubites hie.
3 Forhallen foran Templets Hellige var tyve Alen lang, svarende til Templets Bredde, og ti Alen bred.
And the porch before the Temple of the house was twentie cubites long according to the breadth of the house, and ten cubites broade before the house.
4 Han forsynede Templet med Gittervinduer i Bjælkerammer,
And in the house he made windowes, broad without, and narrowe within.
5 og op til Tempelmuren byggede han en Tilbygning rundt om Templets Mure, rundt om det Hellige og inderhallen, og indrettede Siderum rundt om.
And by the wall of the house hee made galleries round about, euen by the walles of the house round about the Temple and the oracle, and made chambers round about.
6 Det nederste Rum var fem Alen bredt, det mellemste seks og det tredje syv, thi han byggede Fremspring i Templets Ydermur rundt om, for at man ikke skulde være nødt til at lade Bjælkerne gribe ind i Templets Mure.
The nethermost gallerie was fiue cubites broade, and the middlemost sixe cubites broade, and the third seuen cubites broade: for he made restes round about without the house, that the beames should not be fastened in the walles of the house.
7 Ved Templets Opførelsebyggede man med Sten, der var gjort færdige i Stenbrudet, derfor hørtes hverken Lyd af Hamre, Mejsler eller andet Jernværktøj, medens Templet byggedes.
And when the house was built, it was built of stone perfite, before it was brought, so that there was neither hammer, nor axe, nor any toole of yron heard in the house, while it was in building.
8 Indgangen til det nederste Rum var på Templets Sydside, og derfra førte Vindeltrapper op til det mellemste og derfra igen op til det tredje Rum.
The doore of the middle chamber was in the right side of the house, and men went vp with winding stayres into the middlemost, and out of the middlemost into the third.
9 Således byggede han Templet færdigt, og han lagde Taget med Bjælker og Planker af Cedertræ.
So he built the house and finished it, and sieled the house being vawted with sieling of cedar trees.
10 Han byggede Tilbygningen rundt om hele Templet, hvert Stokværk fem Alen højt, og den blev forbundet med Templet med Cederbjælker.
And he built the galleries vpon al the wall of the house of fiue cubites height, and they were ioyned to the house with beames of cedar.
11 Da kom HERRENs Ord til Salomo således:
And the worde of the Lord came to Salomon, saying,
12 "Dette Hus, som du er ved at bygge - dersom du vandrer efter mine Anordninger og gør efter mine Lovbud og omhyggeligt vandrer efter alle mine Bud, vil jeg på dig stadfæste det Ord, jeg talede til din Fader David, -
Cocerning this house which thou buildest, if thou wilt walke in mine ordinances, and execute my iudgements, and keepe al my commadements, to walke in them, then will I performe vnto thee my promise, which I promised to Dauid thy father.
13 og tage Bolig blandt Israeliterne og ikke forlade mit Folk Israel."
And I will dwell among the children of Israel, and wil not forsake my people Israel.
14 Således byggede Salomo Templet færdigt.
So Salomon built the house and finished it,
15 Templets Vægge dækkede han indvendig med Cederbrædder; fra Bygningens Gulv til Loftsbjælkerne dækkede han dem indvendig med Træ; og over Templets Gulv lagde han Cypresbrædder.
And built the walles of the house within, with boards of cedar tree from the pauement of the house vnto the walles of the sieling, and within he couered them with wood, and couered the floore of the house with planks of firre.
16 Han dækkede de tyve bageste Alen af Templet med Cederbrædder fra Gulv til Bjælker og indrettede sig Rummet derinde til en Inderhal, det Allerhelligste.
And he built twentie cubites in the sides of the house with boards of cedar, from the floore to the walles, and he prepared a place within it for the oracle, euen the most holy place.
17 Fyrretyve Alen målte det Hellige foran Inderhallen.
But the house, that is, the Temple before it, was fourtie cubites long.
18 Templet var indvendig dækket med Cedertræ, udskåret Arbejde i Form af Agurker og Blomsterkranse; alt var af Cedertræ, ikke en Sten var at se.
And the cedar of the house within was carued with knops, and grauen with floures: all was cedar, so that no stone was seene.
19 Han indrettede inderhallen inde i Templet for der at opstille HERRENs Pagts Ark.
Also he prepared the place of the oracle in the mids of the house within, to set the Arke of the couenant of the Lord there.
20 Inderhallen var tyve Alen lang, tyve Alen bred og tyve Alen høj, og han overtrak den med fint Guld. Fremdeles lavede han et Alter af Cedertræ
And the place of the oracle within was twentie cubites long, and twentie cubites broad, and twentie cubites hie, and hee couered it with pure golde, and couered the altar with cedar.
21 foran Inderhallen og overtrak det med Guld. Og Salomo overtrak Templet indvendig med fint Guld og trak for med Guldkæder.
So Salomon couered the house within with pure golde: and he shut the place of the oracle with chaines of gold, and couered it with golde.
22 Hele Templet overtrak han med Guld, hele Templet fra den ene Ende til den anden; også hele Alteret foran inderhallen overtrak han med Guld.
And he ouerlayde all the house with gold, vntill all the house was made perfite. also he couered the whole altar, that was before the oracle, with golde.
23 I Inderhallen satte han to Keruber af vildt Oliventræ, ti Alen høje;
And within the oracle he made two Cherubims of oliue tree, ten cubites hie.
24 den ene Kerubs Vinger var hver fem Alen, der var ti Alen fra den ene Vingespids til den anden;
The wing also of the one Cherub was fiue cubites, and the wing of the other Cherub was fiue cubites: from the vttermost part of one of his wings vnto the vttermost part of the other of his wings, were ten cubites.
25 ti Alen målte også den anden Kerub; begge keruber havde samme Mål og Skikkelse;
Also the other Cherub was of ten cubites: both the Cherubims were of one measure and one sise.
26 begge Keruber var ti Alen høje.
For the height of the one Cherub was ten cubits, and so was the other Cherub.
27 Og han opstillede Keruberne midt i den inderste Del af Templet, og de udbredte deres Vinger således, at den enes ene Vinge rørte den ene Væg og den andens ene Vinge den modsatte Væg, medens de to andre Vinger rørte hinanden midt i Templet.
And he put the Cherubims within the inner house, and the Cherubims stretched out their wings, so that the wing of the one touched the one wall, and the wing of the other Cherub touched the other wall: and their other wings touched one another in the middes of the house.
28 Keruberne overtrak han med Guld.
And he ouerlaied the Cherubims with golde.
29 Rundt på alle Vægge i Templet anbragte han udskåret Arbejde, Keruber, Palmer og Blomsterkranse, både i den inderste og den yderste Hal,
And he carued all the walles of the house round about with grauen figures of Cherubims and of Palmetrees, and grauen flowres within and without.
30 og Templets Gulv overtrak han med Guld, både i den inderste og den yderste Hal.
And the floore of the house hee couered with golde within and without.
31 Til Inderhallens Indgang lod han lave to Dørfløje af vildt Oliventræ; Overliggeren og Dørposterne dannede en Femkant.
And in the entring of the oracle he made two doores of oliue tree: and the vpper post and side postes were fiue square.
32 Og på de to Oliventræsfløje lod han udskære Keruber, Palmer og Blomsterkranse og overtrak dem med Guld, idet han lod Guldet trykke ned i de udskårne Keruber og Palmer.
The two doores also were of oliue tree, and he graued them with grauing of Cherubims and palme trees, and grauen floures, and couered them with golde, and layed thin golde vpon the Cherubims and vpon the palme trees.
33 Ligeledes lod han til indgangen til det Hellige lave Dørstolper af vildt Oliventræ, firkantede Dørstolper,
And so made he for the doore of the Temple, postes of oliue tree foure square.
34 og to Dørfløje af Cyprestræ, således at hver af de to Dørfløje bestod af to bevægelige Dørflader;
But the two doores were of firre tree, the two sides of the one doore were round, and the two sides of the other doore were round.
35 og han lod udskære Keruber, Palmer og Blomsterkranse i dem og overtrak dem med Guld, der lå i et tyndt Lag over de udskårne Figurer.
And he graued Cherubims, and palme trees, and carued floures and couered the carued worke with golde, finely wrought.
36 Ligeledes indrettede han den indre Forgård ved at bygge tre Lag Kvadersten og et Lag Cederbjælker.
And hee built the court within with three rowes of hewed stone, and one rowe of beames of cedar.
37 I det fjerde År lagdes Grunden til HERRENs Hus i Ziv Måned;
In the fourth yeere was the foundation of the house of the Lord layed in the moneth of Zif:
38 og i det ellevte År i Bul Måned, det er den ottende Måned, fuldførtes Templet i alle dets Dele og Stykker; han byggede på det i syv År.
And in the eleuenth yeere in the moneth of Bul, (which is the eight moneth) hee finished the house with all the furniture thereof, and in euery point: so was he seuen yeere in building it.
