Første Kongebog 7
1 På sit Palads byggede Salomo i tretten År; så fik han hele sit Palads færdigt.
And Solomon built his own house in thirteen years, and brought it to perfection.
2 Han byggede Libanonskovhuset, hundrede Alen langt, halvtredsindstyve Alen bredt og tredive Alen højt, hvilende på tre Rækker Cedersøjler med Skråstøtter af Cedertræ.
He built also the house of the forest of Libanus, the length of it was a hundred cubits, and the breadth fifty cubits, and the height thirty cubits: and four galleries between pillars of cedar: for he had cut cedar trees into pillars.
3 Det var oven over Rummene tækket med Cederbjælker, der hvilede på fem og fyrretyve Søjler, femten i hver Række.
And he covered the whole vault with boards of cedar, and it was held up with five and forty pillars. And one row had fifteen pillars,
4 Der var tre Lag Bjælker, og Lysåbning sad over for Lysåbning tre Gange.
Set one against another,
5 Alle Døre og Lysåbninger havde firkantede Bjælkerammer, og Lysåbning sad over for Lysåbning tre Gange.
And looking one upon another, with equal space between the pillars, and over the pillars were square beams in all things equal.
6 Fremdeles opførte han Søjlehallen, halvtredsindstyve Alen lang og tredive Alen bred, med en Hal, Søjler og Trappe foran.
And he made a porch of pillars of fifty cubits in length, and thirty cubits in breadth: and another porch before the greater porch: and pillars, and chapiters upon the pillars.
7 Fremdeles opførte han Tronhallen, hvor han holdt Rettergang, Domhallen; den var dækket med Cedertræ fra Gulv til Loft,
He made also the porch of the throne, wherein is the seat of judgment: and covered it with cedar wood from the floor to the top.
8 Hans eget Hus, det, han boede i, i den anden Forgård inden for Hallen, var bygget på samme Måde. Og til Faraos Datter, som Salomo havde ægtet, opførte han et Hus i Lighed med denne Hal.
And in the midst of the porch, was a small house where he sat in judgment, of the like work. He made also a house for the daughter of Pharao (whom Solomon had taken to wife) of the same work, as this porch,
9 Det hele var af kostbare Sten, tilhugget efter Mål, tilsavet både indvendig og udvendig, lige fra Grunden til Murkanten, hvilket også gjaldt den store Forgård uden om Templets Forgård.
All of costly stones, which were sawed by a certain rule and measure both within and without: from the foundation to the top of the walls, and without unto the great court.
10 Grunden blev lagt med kostbare, store Sten, nogle på ti, andre på otte Alen.
And the foundations were of costly stones, great stones of ten cubits or eight cubits:
11 Ovenpå lagdes kostbare Sten, tilhugget efter Mål, og Cederbjælker.
And above there were costly stones, or equal measure, hewed; and, in like manner, planks of cedar:
12 Den store Forgård var hele Vejen rundt omgivet af tre Lag tilhugne Sten og et Lag Cederbjælker, ligeledes HERRENs Huss Forgård, den indre, og Forgården om Paladsets Forhal.
And the greater court was made round with three rows of hewed stones, and one row of planks of cedar, moreover also in the inner court of the house of the Lord, and in the porch of the house.
13 Kong Salomo sendte Bud til Tyrus efter Hiram.
And king Solomon sent, and brought Hiram from Tyre,
14 Han var Søn af en Enke fra Naftalis Stamme, men hans Fader var en Kobbersmed fra Tyrus. Han sad inde med Visdom, Forstand og Indsigt i at udføre alskens Kobberarbejde; og han kom til Kong Salomo og udførte alt det Arbejde, han skulde have udført.
The son of a widow woman of the tribe of Nephtali, whose father was a Tyrian, an artificer in brass, and full of wisdom, and understanding, and skill to work all work in brass. And when he was come to king Solomon, he wrought all his work.
15 Han støbte de to kobbersøjler foran Forhallen. Den ene var atten Alen høj; den målte tolv Alen i Omkreds; den var hul, og Kobberet var fire Fingerbredder tykt. Ligeså den anden Søjle.
And he cast two pillars in brass, each pillar was eighteen cubits high: and a line of twelve cubits compassed both the pillars.
16 Og han lavede to Søjlehoveder til at sidde oven på Søjlerne, støbt af Kobber, hvert Søjlehoved fem Alen højt.
He made also two chapiters of molten brass, to be set upon the tops of the pillars: the height of one chapiter was five cubits, and the height of the other chapiter was five cubits:
17 Og han lavede to Fletværker, flettet Arbejde, Snore, kædeformet Arbejde, til at dække Søjlehovederne oven på Søjlerne, et Fletværk fil hvert Søjleboved;
And a kind of network, and chain work wreathed together with wonderful art. Both the chapiters of the pillars were cast: seven rows of nets were on one chapiter, and seven nets on the other chapiter.
18 og han lavede Granatæblerne, to Rækker rundt om det ene Fletværk; der var 200 Granatæbler i Rækker rundt om det ene Søjlehoved; på samme Måde gjorde han også ved det andet.
And he made the pillars, and two rows round about each network to cover the chapiters, that were upon the top, with pomegranates: and in like manner did he to the other chapiter.
19 Søjlehovedeme på de to Søjler var liljeformet Arbejde.
And the chapiters that were upon the top of the pillars, were of lily work in the porch, of four cubits.
20 Søjlehovederne sad på de to Søjler.
And again other chapiters in the top of the pillars above, according to the measure of the pillar over against the network: and of pomegranates there were two hundred in rows round about the other chapiter.
21 Derpå opstillede han Søjlerne ved Templets Forhal; den Søjle, han opstillede til højre, kaldte han Jakin, og den, han opstillede til venstre, kaldte han Boaz.
And he set up the two pillars in the porch of the temple: and when he had set up the pillar on the right hand, he called the name thereof Jachin: in like manner he set up the second pillar, and called the name thereof Booz.
22 Øverst på Søjlerne var der liljeformet Arbejde. Således blev Arbejdet med Søjlerne færdigt.
And upon the tops of the pillars he made lily work: so the work of the pillars was finished.
23 Fremdeles lavede han Havet i støbt Arbejde, ti Alen fra Rand til Rand, helt rundt, fem Alen højt; det målte tredive Alen i Omkreds.
He made also a molten sea of ten cubits from brim to brim, round all about; the height of it was five cubits, and a line of thirty cubits compassed it round about.
24 Under Randen var det hele Vejen rundt omgivet af agurklignende Prydelser, der nåede helt omkring Havet, tredive Alen; i to Rækker sad de agurklignende Prydelser, støbt i eet dermed.
And a graven work under the brim of it compassed it, for ten cubits going about the sea: there were two rows cast of chamfered sculptures.
25 Det stod på tolv Okser, således at tre vendte mod Nord, tre mod Vest, tre mod Syd og tre mod Øst; Havet stod oven på dem; de vendte alle Bagkroppen indad.
And it stood upon twelve oxen, of which three looked towards the north, and three towards the west, and three towards the south, and three towards the east, and the sea was above upon them, and their hinder parts were all hid within.
26 Det var en Håndsbred tykt, og Randen var formet som Randen på et Bæger, som en udsprungen Lilje. Det tog 2000 Bat.
And the laver was a handbreadth thick: and the brim thereof was like the brim of a cup, or the leaf of a crisped lily: it contained two thousand bates.
27 Fremdeles lavede han de ti Vognstel af Kobber; hvert Stel var fire Alen langt, fire Alen bredt og tre Alen højt.
And he made ten bases of brass, every base was four cubits in length, and four cubits in breadth, and three cubits high.
28 Og Stellene var indrettet så ledes: De havde Mellemstykker, og Mellemstykkerne sad mellem Rammestykkerne.
And the work itself of the bases, was intergraven: and there were gravings between the joinings.
29 På Mellemstykkerne mellem Rammestykkerne var der Løver, Okser og Keruber, ligeledes på Rammestykkerne. Over og under Løverne og Okserne var der Kranse, lavet således, at de hang ned.
And between the little crowns and the ledges were lions, and oxen, and cherubims: and in the joinings likewise above: and under the lions and oxen, as it were bands of brass hanging down.
30 Hvert Stel havde fire Kobber hjul og Kobberaksler. De fire Hjørner havde Bærearme; under Bækkenet var Bærearmene faststøbt, og midt for hver af dem var der Kranse.
And every base had four wheels, and axletrees of brass: and at the four sides were undersetters under the laver molten, looking one against another.
31 Dets Rand var inden for Bærearmene, een Alen høj, og den var rund: også på Randen var der udskåret Arbejde. Mellemstykkerne var firkantede, ikke runde.
The mouth also of the laver within, was in the top of the chapiter: and that which appeared without, was of one cubit all round, and together it was one cubit and a half: and in the corners of the pillars were divers engravings: and the spaces between the pillars were square, not round.
32 De fire Hjul sad under Mellemstykkerne, og Hjulenes Akselholdere sad på Stellet; hvert Hjul var halvanden Alen højt.
And the four wheels, which were at the four corners of the base, were joined one to another under the base: the height of a wheel was a cubit and a half.
33 Hjulene var indrettet som Vognhjul, og deres Akselholdere, Fælge, Eger og Nav var alle støbt.
And they were such wheels as are used to be made in a chariot: and their axletrees, and spokes, and strakes, and naves, were all east.
34 Der var en Bæream på hvert Stels fire Hjørner, og Bærearmene var i eet med Stellet;
And the four undersetters that were at every corner of each base, were of the base itself cast and joined together.
35 og oven på Stellet var der en Slags Fatning, en halv Alen høj og helt rund; og Akselholdere og Mellemstykker sad fast på Stellet.
And in the top of the base there was a round compass of half a cubit, so wrought that the laver might be set thereon, having its gravings, and divers sculptures of itself.
36 På Fladerne indgraverede han Keruber, Løver og Palmer, efter som der var Plads til, omgivet af Kranse.
He engraved also in those plates, which were of brass. and in the corners, cherubims, and lions, and palm trees, in likeness of a man standing, so that they seemed not to be engraven, but added round about.
37 Således lavede han de ti Stel; de var alle støbt på samme Måde, med samme Mål og af samme Form.
After this manner he made ten bases, of one casting and measure, and the like graving.
38 Tillige lavede han ti Kobberbækkener; fyrretyve Bat tog hvert Bækken, og hvert Bækken målte fire Alen, et Bækken til hvert af de ti Stel.
He made also ten lavers of brass: one laver contained four bases, and was of four cubits: and upon every base, in all ten, he put as many lavers.
39 Og han satte fem af Stellene ved Templets Sydside, fem ved Nordsiden; og Havet opstillede han ved Templets Sydside, ved det sydøstre Hjørne.
And he set the ten bases, five on the right side of the temple, and five on the left: and the sea he put on the right side of the temple over against the east southward.
40 Fremdeles lavede Hirom Karrene, Skovlene og Skålene. Der med var Hiram færdig med alt sit Arbejde for Kong Salomo til HERRENs Hus:
And Hiram made caldrons, and shovels, and basins, and finished all the work of king Solomon in the temple of the Lord.
41 De to Søjler, og de to kuglefornede Søjlehoveder ovenpå, de to Fletværker til at dække de to kugleformede Søjlehoveder på Søjlerne,
The two pillars and the two cords of the chapiters, upon the chapiters of the pillars: and the two networks, to cover the two cords, that were upon the top of the pillars.
42 de 400 Granatæbler til de to Fletværker, to Rækker Granatæbler til hvert Fletværk til at dække de to kugleformede Søjlehoveder på de to Søjler,
And four hundred pomegranates for the two networks: two rows of pomegranates for each network, to cover the cords of the chapiters, which were upon the tops of the pillars.
43 de ti Stel med de ti Bækkener på,
And the ten bases, and the ten lavers on the bases.
44 Havet med de tolv Okser under,
And one sea, and twelve oxen under the sea.
45 Karrene, Skovlene og Skålene. Alle disse Ting, som Hiram lavede for Kong Salomo til HERRENs Hus, var af blankt Kobber.
And the caldrons, and the shovels, and the basins. All the vessels that Hiram made for king Solomon for the house of the Lord, were of fine brass.
46 I Jordanegnen lod Kongen dem støbe, ved Adamas Vadested mellem Sukkot og Zaretan.
In the plains of the Jordan did the king cast them in a clay ground, between Socoth and Sartham.
47 Salomo lod alle Tingene uvejet på Grund af deres såre store Mængde, Kobberet blev ikke vejet.
And Solomon placed all the vessels: but for exceeding great multitude the brass could not be weighed.
48 Og Salomo lod alle Tingene, som hørte til HERRENs Hus, lave: Guldalteret, Guldbordet, som Skuebrødene lå på,
And Solomon made all the vessels for the house of the Lord: the altar of gold, and the table of gold, upon which the leaves of proposition should be set:
49 Lysestagerne, fem til højre og fem til venstre, foran Inderhallen, af purt Guld, med Blomsterbægrene, Lamperne og Lysesaksene af Guld,
And the golden candlesticks, five on the right hand, and five on the left, over against the oracle, of pure gold: and the flowers like lilies, and the lamps over them of gold: and golden snuffers,
50 Fadene, Knivene, Skålene, Kanderne og Panderne af fint Guld, Hængslerne til Dørene for den inderste Hal, det Allerhelligste, og til Dørene for den yderste Hal, det Hellige, af Guld.
And pots, and fleshhooks, and bowls, and mortars, and censers, of most pure gold: and the hinges for the doors of the inner house of the holy of holies, and for the doors of the house of the temple were of gold.
51 Da hele Arbejdet, som Salomo lod udføre ved HERRENs Hus, var færdigt, bragte Salomo sin Fader Davids Helliggaver, Sølvet og Guldet, derind og lagde alle Tingene i Skatkamrene i HERRENs Hus.
And Solomon finished all the work that he made in the house of the Lord, and brought in the things that David his father had dedicated, the silver and the gold, and the vessels, and laid them up in the treasures of the house of the Lord.
