1 Mgbe ahụ, Solomọn malitere iwu ụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị. Ọ bụ nʼugwu Mọrịa, nke dị na Jerusalem, ka e wukwasịrị ya, nʼebe ahụ Onyenwe anyị mere ka Devid bụ nna ya hụ ya anya. Ọ bụ nʼala ebe ịzọcha ọka Arauna, onye Jebus, ebe ahụ Devid họpụtara.
Then Solomon began to build the house of the LORD at Jerusalem on Mount Moriah, where he appeared to David his father, at the place that David had designated, on the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
2 O bidoro iwu ụlọ ahụ nʼabalị nke abụọ, nke ọnwa abụọ, nʼafọ nke anọ, nke ọchịchị eze ya.
And he began to build in the second month, in the fourth year of his reign.
3 Ntọala Solomọn tọrọ maka iwu ụlọnsọ Chineke dị iri mita abụọ na asaa nʼogologo, mita itoolu nʼobosara. (Nke a bụ ma ejiri ihe ọtụtụ ochie).
Now these are the foundations which Solomon laid for the building of God's house. The length, using the former standard measure, was one hundred three feet and four inches, and the breadth was thirty-four feet and five inches, and its height was fifty-one feet and eight inches.
4 Ịdị ogologo mpụta ọnụ ụlọ nke ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ dị mita itoolu, dịka ịdị ogologo obosara ụlọ nso ahụ nʼonwe ya. Ịdị elu ya dịkwa mita itoolu. O jikwa ọlaedo a nụchara anụcha machie ime ya.
The porch that was in front of the house was the same as the width of the house, thirty-four feet and five inches, and the depth was seventeen feet and three inches; and he overlaid it on the inside with pure gold.
5 O ji osisi junipa machie ahụ ime ụlọ ezumezu ahụ, jirikwa ọlaedo a nụchara anụcha techie osisi ndị ahụ niile. Emesịa, e sere oyiyi nkwụ dị iche iche, na oyiyi ụdọ igwe nʼahụ ụlọ ahụ iji chọọ ya mma.
The greater house he made a ceiling with fir wood, which he overlaid with fine gold, and ornamented it with palm trees and chains.
6 O ji nkume dị oke ọnụahịa dị iche iche chọọ ime ụlọnsọ ahụ mma, ya na ọlaedo nke e si na Pavaim bute.
He garnished the house with precious stones for beauty: and the gold was gold of Parvaim.
7 Ogidi osisi silin niile, na ibo ọnụ ụzọ niile, na aja ụlọ niile, na ọnụ ụzọ niile dị nʼụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ ka o ji ọlaedo techie. Ọ gbukwara egbugbu oyiyi cherubim na mgbidi ya niile.
He overlaid also the house, the beams, the thresholds, and its walls, and its doors, with gold; and engraved cherubim on the walls.
8 O wuru Ebe ahụ Kachasị Nsọ; nke ogologo ọnụ ụlọ ya dị mita iri, otu a kwa, obosara ya dị mita iri. O ji ọlaedo dị ezi mma nke ọnụahịa ya ruru narị talenti isii techie ahụ ime ụlọ ahụ niile.
He made the most holy house: its length, according to the breadth of the house, was thirty-four feet and five inches, and its breadth thirty-four feet and five inches; and he overlaid it with fine gold, amounting to six hundred talents.
9 Ịdị arọ ọlaedo e ji kpụọ ǹtu e ji wuo ya dị iri shekel ise. E jikwa ọlaedo techie akụkụ elu elu nke ime ọnụ ụlọ a.
The weight of the nails was fifty shekels of gold. He overlaid the upper rooms with gold.
10 Solomọn tinyere oyiyi mmụọ ozi cherubim abụọ ọ kpụrụ nʼime Ebe ahụ Kachasị Nsọ, werekwa ọlaedo machie ha.
In the most holy house he made two cherubim of sculptured work; and he overlaid them with gold.
11 Ịdị ogologo nku cherubim ndị a ruru mita iri. Ịdị ogologo otu nku cherub nke mbụ ruru mita abụọ na ọkara. Ọnụ nku a na-emetụ ahụ ime ụlọ nke ụlọnsọ ukwu, ma ọnụ ọnụ nku nke ọzọ, nke ịdị ogologo ya ruru mita abụọ nʼọkara, na-emetụ ọnụ otu nku cherub nke ọzọ.
The wings of the cherubim were thirty-four feet and five inches: the wing of the one was eight feet and seven inches, reaching to the wall of the house; and the other wing was eight feet and seven inches, reaching to the wing of the other cherub.
12 Nʼotu aka ahụ, otu nku cherub nke abụọ ruru mita abụọ na ọkara nʼogologo. Ọnụ nku ya na-emetụ akụkụ nke ọzọ nke ahụ ime ụlọnsọ ukwu, ma nku ya nke ọzọ, nke rukwara mita abụọ na ọkara nʼogologo, na-emetụ ọnụ ọnụ otu nku cherub nke mbụ.
The wing of the other cherub was eight feet and seven inches, reaching to the wall of the house; and the other wing was eight feet and seven inches, joining to the wing of the other cherub.
13 Nku cherubim ndị a gbasapụrụ ruo mita iri nʼogologo. Ha guzo ọtọ nʼụkwụ ha, na-eche ihu nʼọnụ ụlọ ezumezu ahụ.
The wings of these cherubim were extended thirty-four feet and five inches: and they stood on their feet, and their faces were toward the house.
14 O ji akwa na-acha anụnụ anụnụ, na uhie uhie, na odo odo, na ezi akwa ọcha, mee akwa mgbochi, nke a kpanyekwara oyiyi cherubim nʼime ya.
He made the veil of blue, and purple, and crimson, and fine linen, and ornamented it with cherubim.
15 O wuru ogidi abụọ dị nʼihu ụlọnsọ ahụ, nke ịdị elu ya ruru mita iri na asaa. Ọ kpụkwara ihe a dokwasịrị nʼelu ogidi ndị a, nke ịdị elu ha dị mita abụọ na ọkara.
Also he made before the house two pillars sixty feet and three inches high, and the capital that was on the top of each of them was eight feet and seven inches.
16 Ọ kpụkwara ihe yiri ụdọ igwe a tụrụ atụ, nke e kokwasịrị nʼelu ogidi abụọ ndị ahụ. Kpụọkwa narị mkpụrụ pomegranet, nke a ganyekọtara ya na ụdọ igwe ahụ.
He made chains in the inner sanctuary, and put them on the tops of the pillars; and he made one hundred pomegranates, and put them on the chains.
17 O guzobere ogidi abụọ ndị ahụ nʼihu ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ, otu nʼakụkụ ugwu nke ọzọ nʼakụkụ ndịda. Ogidi nke dị na ndịda ka ọ kpọrọ Jakin, ma nke dị nʼugwu ka ọ kpọrọ Boaz.
He set up the pillars before the temple, one on the right hand, and the other on the left; and called the name of that on the right hand Jakin, and the name of that on the left Boaz.
