And Solomon began to build the house of the Lord in Jerusalem in the mount of Amoria, where the Lord appeared to his father David, in the place which David had prepared in the threshing-floor of Orna the Jebusite.
2 Houin kisahpan chu Solomon lengchan kal kum li lhinna chan ni anahin ahi.
And he began to build in the second month, in the fourth year of his reign.
3 Pathen Houin kibulphuna dinga Solomon in agonchu adung tong somgup avai tong somni a len ahi.
And thus Solomon began to build the house of God: the length in cubits—even the first measurement from end to end, was sixty cubits, and the breadth twenty cubits.
4 Houin mai’a avaitannaa kisa Hongcha chu adung tong somni chule asandan tong somni ahi. Lut na indan a chu Houin vai lhung kei chan tong somni chule tong somni ma sang ahi, Aman asunglang chu sana thengsellin aloi jin ahi.
And the portico in front of the house, its length in front of the breadth of the house [was] twenty cubits, and its height a hundred and twenty cubits: and he gilded it within with pure gold.

And he lined the great house with cedar wood, and gilded it with pure gold, and carved upon it palm-trees and chains.

And he garnished the house with precious stones for beauty; and he gilded it with gold of the gold from Pharuim.
7 Hitihin Houin inkam jouse, akotjol hole ajol ho, abang hole akot ho jouse chu Sana in atomin, chule bang dunga chun Cherubim lim ageidoh soh keijin ahi.
And he gilded the house, and its [inner] walls, and the door-posts, and the roofs, and the doors with gold; and he carved cherubs on the walls.
8 Chule muntheng chungnung pen tong somni in Houin vaitoh kikotnin asemin, chule athuhlam tong somni ma alhinge. Asunglam chu Sana thengsel agih tena sang somnile ja get le somgup le khat lut in alhajollin, atomlhah sah in ahi.
And he built the holy of holies, its length was according to the front [of the other house], the breadth of the house [was] twenty cubits, and the length twenty cubits: and he gilded [it] with pure gold for cherubs, to [the amount of] six hundred talents.
9 Sana hongcha sahna kimang sana thingkil jong chu, Shekel somnga cheh agih in ahi. Achunglam dan ho jong chu Sanan atomjol sah soh keijin ahi.
And the weight of the nails, [even] the weight of each was fifty shekels of gold: and he gilded the upper chamber with gold.
10 Aman Cherubim lim tobang ni asemin, hiche teni chu Sanan atomin; muntheng chungnunga chun akoiyin ahi.
And he made two cherubs in the most holy house, wood-work, and he gilded them with gold.
11 Apangtoa kikai Cherubim teni lha mong asemsa chu tong ngaa asaovin, hiche lhaving chun nilah’a amasapa tong nga asaovin; hiche lhaving chun Houin bang aphai. Cherubim nina pajong chu tong nga ma, asaovin lhaving langkhat chu aphan ahi.
And the wings of the cherubs were twenty cubits in length: and one wing of five cubits touched the wall of the house: and the other wing of five cubits touched the wing of the other cherub.
12 Chutobang machun Cherubim lim nina pa jong chun tong ngaa sao lhaving aneijin, hiche chun Houin bang lang khat chu aphai; Alhaving nina pa jong chu tong nga asaovin Cherubim lim masa pa lhaving chu aphan ahi.
13 Hitichun alangtoa Cherubim teni lhamong chu tong somni ahi. Amani Chu akeng lhon’in ading gel lhon in, Houin inkim lamchu anga lhon in ahi.
And the wings of these cherubs expanded were of the length of twenty cubits: and they stood upon their feet, and their faces were toward the house.
14 Muntheng chungnung lutna laitah achun tupat ponnemma kisem adum asandup le asan-ao patna, kijem chule cherubim a lim kikhuibeh pondal khat aki dallin ahi.
And he made the vail of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen, and wove cherubs in it.
15 Houin mailanga ding chun Solomon in Khompi ni tong somle get a sang aphutnin, anigellin khom alu kisemhoi tong nga in akijop saotou in ahi.
Also he made in front of the house two pillars, in height thirty-five cubits, and their chapters of five cubits.

And he made chains, [as] in the oracle, and put [them] on the heads of the pillars; and he made a hundred pomegranates, and put them on the chains.
And he set up the pillars in front of the temple, one on the right hand and the other on the left: and he called the name of the one on the right hand 'Stability,' and the name of the one on the left 'Strength.'
