Ii Paralipomenon 4
1 fecit quoque altare aeneum viginti cubitorum longitudinis et viginti cubitorum latitudinis et decem cubitorum altitudinis
Then he made an altar of bronze, twenty cubits long, twenty cubits wide, and ten cubits high.
2 mare etiam fusile decem cubitis a labio usque ad labium rotundum per circuitum quinque cubitos habebat altitudinis et funiculus triginta cubitorum ambiebat gyrum eius
Also he made the molten sea of ten cubits from brim to brim. It was round, five cubits high, and thirty cubits in circumference.
3 similitudo quoque boum erat subter illud et decem cubitis quaedam extrinsecus celaturae quasi duobus versibus alvum maris circuibant boves autem erant fusiles
Under it was the likeness of oxen, which encircled it, for ten cubits, encircling the sea. The oxen were in two rows, cast when it was cast.
4 et ipsum mare super duodecim boves inpositum erat quorum tres respiciebant aquilonem et alii tres occidentem porro tres alii meridiem et tres qui reliqui erant orientem mare habentes superpositum posteriora autem boum erant intrinsecus sub mari
It stood on twelve oxen, three looking towards the north, three looking towards the west, three looking towards the south, and three looking towards the east; and the sea was set on them above, and all their hindquarters were inward.
5 porro vastitas eius habebat mensuram palmi et labium illius erat quasi labium calicis vel repandi lilii capiebatque mensurae tria milia metretas
It was a handbreadth thick. Its brim was made like the brim of a cup, like the flower of a lily. It received and held three thousand baths.
6 fecit quoque concas decem et posuit quinque a dextris et quinque a sinistris ut lavarent in eis omnia quae in holocaustum oblaturi erant porro in mari sacerdotes lavabantur
He also made ten basins, and put five on the right hand and five on the left, to wash in them. The things that belonged to the burnt offering were washed in them, but the sea was for the priests to wash in.
7 fecit autem et candelabra aurea decem secundum speciem qua iussa erant fieri et posuit ea in templo quinque a dextris et quinque a sinistris
He made the ten lamp stands of gold according to the ordinance concerning them; and he set them in the temple, five on the right hand and five on the left.
8 necnon et mensas decem posuitque eas in templo quinque a dextris et quinque a sinistris fialas quoque aureas centum
He made also ten tables, and placed them in the temple, five on the right side and five on the left. He made one hundred basins of gold.
9 fecit etiam atrium sacerdotum et basilicam grandem et ostia in basilica quae texit aere
Furthermore he made the court of the priests, the great court, and doors for the court, and overlaid their doors with bronze.
10 porro mare posuit in latere dextro contra orientem ad meridiem
He set the sea on the right side of the house eastward, towards the south.
11 fecit autem Hiram lebetas quoque et creagras et fialas et conplevit omne opus regis in domo Dei
Huram made the pots, the shovels, and the basins. So Huram finished doing the work that he did for King Solomon in God’s house:
12 hoc est columnas duas et epistylia et capita et quasi quaedam retiacula quae capita tegerent super epistylia
the two pillars, the bowls, the two capitals which were on the top of the pillars, the two networks to cover the two bowls of the capitals that were on the top of the pillars,
13 malagranata quoque quadringenta et retiacula duo ita ut bini ordines malagranatorum singulis retiaculis iungerentur quae protegerent epistylia et capita columnarum
and the four hundred pomegranates for the two networks—two rows of pomegranates for each network, to cover the two bowls of the capitals that were on the pillars.
14 bases etiam fecit et concas quas superposuit basibus
He also made the bases, and he made the basins on the bases—
15 mare unum bovesque duodecim sub mari
one sea, and the twelve oxen under it.
16 et lebetas et creagras et fialas omnia vasa fecit Salomoni Hiram pater eius in domo Domini ex aere mundissimo
Huram-abi also made the pots, the shovels, the forks, and all its vessels for King Solomon, for the LORD’s house, of bright bronze.
17 in regione Iordanis fudit ea rex in argillosa terra inter Socchoth et Saredatha
The king cast them in the plain of the Jordan, in the clay ground between Succoth and Zeredah.
18 erat autem multitudo vasorum innumerabilis ita ut ignoraretur pondus aeris
Thus Solomon made all these vessels in great abundance, so that the weight of the bronze could not be determined.
19 fecitque Salomon omnia vasa domus Dei et altare aureum et mensas et super eas panes propositionis
Solomon made all the vessels that were in God’s house: the golden altar, the tables with the show bread on them,
20 candelabra quoque cum lucernis suis ut lucerent ante oraculum iuxta ritum ex auro purissimo
and the lamp stands with their lamps to burn according to the ordinance before the inner sanctuary, of pure gold;
21 et florentia quaedam et lucernas et forcipes aureos omnia de auro mundissimo facta sunt
and the flowers, the lamps, and the tongs of gold that was purest gold;
22 thymiamateria quoque et turibula et fialas et mortariola ex auro purissimo et ostia celavit templi interioris id est in sancto sanctorum et ostia templi forinsecus aurea sicque conpletum est omne opus quod fecit Salomon in domo Domini
and the snuffers, the basins, the spoons, and the fire pans of pure gold. As for the entry of the house, its inner doors for the most holy place and the doors of the main hall of the temple were of gold.
