Then Solomon’s workers started to build the temple for Yahweh in Jerusalem. They built it on Moriah Hill, where [an angel from] Yahweh had appeared to his father David. They built it on the ground that Araunah, a descendant of the Jebus people-group, had sold to David and where David said that it should be built.
2 ke len akluo in malem akluo in yac akakosr tukun el tokosrala.
They began the work in April, when Solomon had been ruling almost four years.
3 Tempul se ma Tokosra Solomon el musaela oasr fit eungoul lusa ac fit tolngoul sralap.
The foundation of the temple was about 90 feet long and 30 feet wide.

The entrance room across the front of the temple was 30 feet wide and 30 feet high.
5 Infukil se ma yohk emeet sinkayak ke sak cedar ac mosrweyukla ke gold wowo, ma kihlyak nu ke luman sak palm ac sein.
Solomon’s workers used [panels/boards of] pine [wood] to line the main hall of the temple. Then they covered those panels with [very thin sheets of] pure gold. Then they decorated the walls with [carved images of] palm trees and designs that resembled chains.
6 Tokosra el nawela Tempul ke eot saok, ac ke gold ma tuku liki facl Parvaim.
They decorated the temple with very valuable stones. The gold that they used was from [the land of] Parvaim.
7 El orekmakin gold inge in sang mosrwe sinka in Tempul, ac sak lucng, ac nien utyak, ac srungul uh. Mwet musa elos sruloala luman cherub ke sinka uh.
They covered the ceiling beams, the door frames, the walls and the doors of the temple with [very thin sheets of] gold. They also carved [statues of] winged creatures on the walls.

They also built the Very Holy Place [inside the temple]. It was 30 feet wide and 30 feet long. They covered its walls with sheets of pure gold that altogether weighed 23 tons.
9 Ounce longoul ke gold sang mosrwela osra in patput, na sinka ke infukil oan lucng uh naweyukla pac ke gold.
They used 1-1/4 pounds of gold to [cover the heads of] the nails. They also covered the walls of the upper rooms with sheets of gold.
10 Tokosra el sap mwet orekma lal in orala luo cherub ke osra, ac mosrwela ke gold, ac likiya ke Acn Mutal Na Mutal.
Solomon’s workers made two statues of creatures with wings to put inside the Very Holy Place. They covered those statues with [very thin sheets of] gold.
11 Lusen posohksok akosr lun cherub luo ah sun fit tolngoul: sie posohksok lun cherub se meet ah, fit itkosr lusa, pusralla sie sinka ah, na posohksok se akluo lal asrosrla fit itkosr ac sun poun cherub se akluo infulwen fukil sac,
[Each statue had two long wings]. One wing of each statue touched one of the walls of the Temple. The other wing of each statue touched a wing of the other statue. It was 7-1/2 feet from the outer tip of one wing to the outer tip of the other wing. The inner wings of the two statues touched each other.
12 na posohksok lun cherub se akluo ah sifilpa fit itkosr lusa, pusralla pac sinka se lac ah, ac posohksok se akluo lal fit itkosr pusralla poun cherub se meet ah infulwen infukil sac.

It was 30 feet from the outer wing of the one statue to the outer wing of the other statue. The statues faced the doorway to the main room.

Solomon’s workers made a curtain [to separate the main room from the Very Holy Place]. It was made of blue, purple, and red thread and fine linen. There were figures of winged creatures that were embroidered on the curtain.
15 Tokosra el sap in orekla sru lukwa, fit lumngaul luo lusen kais soko, na tulokyak ke mutun Tempul ah. Sifen sru lukwa inge oasr fit itkosr tafu fulata.
They made two [bronze] pillars and put them at the entrance of the temple. They were each 27 feet high. Each had a top over it that was 7-1/2 feet high.
16 Itulyukeni luman pomegranate siofok ma orekla ke bronze, sang yunela sifen sru inge,
The workers made [carvings that resembled] chains and put them on top of the pillars. They made [carvings that resembled] pomegranates and attached them to the chains.
17 ac sru lukwa inge oan siska luo ke nien utyak nu in Tempul. Sru soko oan ke layen nu eir pangpang Jachin, ac ma soko ngia oan layen nu epang pangpang Boaz.
They set up the pillars in front of the temple, one on the south side [of the entrance] and the other on the north side. The one on the south side was named Jakin and the one on the north side was named Boaz.
