1 Kingi 6

1 Na i te wha rau e waru tekau o nga tau o te putanga mai o nga tama a Iharaira i te whenua o Ihipa, i te wha o nga tau o te kingitanga o Horomona ki a Iharaira, i marama Tiwhi, ara i te rua o nga marama, ka timata ia te hanga i te whare o Ihowa.

And it cometh to pass, in the four hundred and eightieth year of the going out of the sons of Israel from the land of Egypt, in the fourth year — in the month of Zif, it [is] the second month — of the reigning of Solomon over Israel, that he buildeth the house for Jehovah.

2 Na, ko te whare i hanga nei e Kingi Horomona mo Ihowa, e ono tekau whatianga te roa, e rua tekau whatianga te whanui, a ko te tiketike e toru tekau whatianga.

As to the house that king Solomon hath built for Jehovah, sixty cubits [is] its length, and twenty its breadth, and thirty cubits its height.

3 Na, ko te whakamahau i te roro o te temepara o te whare, e rua tekau whatianga te roa, rite tonu ki te whanui o te whare; kotahi tekau whatianga te whanui i mua mai i te whare.

As to the porch on the front of the temple of the house, twenty cubits [is] its length on the front of the breadth of the house; ten by the cubit [is] its breadth on the front of the house;

4 Na i hanga e ia etahi matapihi mo te whare, he tu arapaki mau tonu.

and he maketh for the house windows of narrow lights.

5 I hanga ano e ia etahi ruma ki te taha o te whare a whawhe noa, ki nga taha o te whare a whawhe noa, ki o te temepara, a ki o te ahurewa: na hanga ana e ia nga ruma ki te taha a whawhe noa.

And he buildeth against the wall of the house a couch round about, [even] the walls of the house round about, of the temple and of the oracle, and maketh sides round about.

6 E rima whatianga te whanui o to raro ruma, e ono whatianga te whanui o to waenganui, e whitu whatianga te whanui o te tuatoru: i whakapiritia hoki etahi pokohiwi ki waho o te whare a taka noa, kei whakaukia nga kurupae ki nga taha o te whare.

The lowest couch, five by the cubit [is] its breadth; and the middle, six by the cubit [is] its breadth; and the third, seven by the cubit [is] its breadth, for withdrawings he hath put to the house round about, without — not to lay hold on the walls of the house.

7 Na, ko te whare, i tona hanganga, he mea hanga ki te kohatu kua oti noa ake te whakapai, mai te rua kohatu: kahore hoki he hama, he toki ranei, tetahi mea rino ranei i rongona ki te whare i tona hanganga.

And the house, in its being built, of perfect stone brought [thither] hath been built, and hammer, and the axe — any instrument of iron — was not heard in the house, in its being built.

8 Ko te tatau o te paparanga ruma o waenga i te taha ki matau o te whare: he mea awhiowhio te arawhata i piki ai ki to waenga paparanga, ma roto atu i to waenga ki te tuatoru.

The opening of the middle side [is] at the right shoulder of the house, and with windings they go up on the middle one, and from the middle one unto the third.

9 Heoi hanga ana e ia te whare a oti ake; he hita nga kurupae me nga papa i hipokina ai e ia te whare.

And he buildeth the house, and completeth it, and covereth the house [with] beams and rows of cedars.

10 I hanga e ia he ruma ki nga taha katoa o te whare, e rima whatianga te tiketike; he hita nga rakau i tau iho ai aua ruma ki te whare.

And he buildeth the couch against all the house, five cubits [is] its height, and it taketh hold of the house by cedar-wood.

11 Na ko te putanga o te kupu a Ihowa ki a Horomona, i mea ia,

And the word of Jehovah is unto Solomon, saying,

12 Mo te whare e hanga nei e koe, ki te haere koe i runga i aku tikanga, a ka mahi i aku whakaritenga, ka mau hoki ki aku whakahau katoa, ka haere i runga i enei; katahi ka whakapumautia e ahau taku kupu ki a koe, taku i korero ai ki tou papa, ki a Rawiri.

'This house that thou art building — if thou dost walk in My statutes, and My judgments dost do, yea, hast done all My commands, to walk in them, then I have established My word with thee, which I spake unto David thy father,

13 A ka noho ahau i waenganui i nga tama a Iharaira, e kore ano e whakarere i taku iwi, i a Iharaira.

and have tabernacled in the midst of the sons of Israel, and do not forsake My people Israel.'

14 Heoi hanga ana e Horomona te whare a oti ake.

And Solomon buildeth the house and completeth it;

15 A i hanga e ia nga taha o roto o te whare ki te papa hita; no raro ake a tae noa ki nga papa hipoki, i whakapiritia e ia a roto ki te rakau: a i wharikitia a raro ki te papa kauri.

and he buildeth the walls of the house within with beams of cedar, from the floor of the house unto the walls of the ceiling; he hath overlaid with wood the inside, and covereth the floor of the house with ribs of fir.

16 A e rua tekau nga whatianga o nga taha o te whare ki muri i hanga e ia ki te papa hita i raro a tae noa ki nga taha: i hanga ano ki te pera a roto, hei ahurewa, ara mo te wahi tino tapu.

And he buildeth the twenty cubits on the sides of the house with ribs of cedar, from the floor unto the walls; and he buildeth for it within, for the oracle, for the holy of holies.

17 A, ko te whare, ara ko te temepara i mua o te ahurewa, e wha tekau whatianga te roa.

And forty by the cubit was the house, it [is] the temple before [it].

18 A he hita i roto i te whare, he mea whakairo ki te rapupuku, ki te puawai kowhera: he hita katoa; kahore he kohatu i kitea.

And the cedar for the house within [is] carvings of knobs and openings of flowers; the whole [is] cedar, there is not a stone seen.

19 I whakapaia ano e ia he ahurewa i te whare i roto atu, ki reira tu ai te aaka o te kawenata a Ihowa.

And the oracle in the midst of the house within he hath prepared, to put there the ark of the covenant of Jehovah.

20 Na i roto i te ahurewa ko tetahi wahi, e rua tekau whatianga te roa, e rua tekau whatianga te whanui, e rua tekau whatianga te tiketike; a i whakakikoruatia e ia ki te koura parakore; i hipokina hoki te aata ki te hita.

And before the oracle [is] twenty cubits in length, and twenty cubits in breadth, and twenty cubits [is] its height; and he overlayeth it with gold refined, and overlayeth the altar with cedar.

21 Heoi whakakikoruatia ana a roto o te whare e Horomona ki te koura parakore: tataitia e ia he mekameka koura ki mua o te ahurewa, whakakikoruatia iho ki te koura.

And Solomon overlayeth the house within with gold refined, and causeth [it] to pass over in chains of gold before the oracle, and overlayeth it with gold.

22 I whakakikoruatia ano e ia te whare katoa ki te koura a oti noa te whare katoa: i whakakikoruatia katoatia ano e ia te aata, to te ahurewa, ki te koura.

And the whole of the house he hath overlaid with gold, till the completion of all the house; and the whole of the altar that the oracle hath, he hath overlaid with gold.

23 A i hanga e ia mo roto i te ahurewa e rua nga kerupima, he oriwa te rakau, kotahi tekau whatianga te tiketike o tetahi, o tetahi.

And he maketh within the oracle two cherubs, of the oil-tree, ten cubits [is] their height;

24 A e rima whatianga tetahi parirau o te kerupa kotahi, e rima hoki whatianga tetahi parirau o taua kerupa; ko te pito o tetahi parirau a tae noa ki te pito o tetahi, tekau whatianga.

and five cubits [is] the one wing of the cherub, and five cubits the second wing of the cherub, ten cubits from the ends of its wings even unto the ends of its wings;

25 Kotahi tekau whatianga te rua o nga kerupima: kotahi te roa, kotahi te ahua o nga kerupima e rua.

and ten by the cubit [is] the second cherub, one measure and one form [are] to the two cherubs,

26 Kotahi tekau whatianga te tiketike o tetahi kerupima: he pera ano te rua o nga kerupima.

the height of the one cherub [is] ten by the cubit, and so [is] the second cherub;

27 A whakanohoia ana e ia nga kerupima ki to roto whare; i roha nga parirau o nga kerupima, a pa ana te parirau o tetahi ki tetahi taha, pa ana te parirau o tetahi ki tetahi taha; me te pa ano o raua parirau ki a raua i waenganui o te whare.

and he setteth the cherubs in the midst of the inner house, and they spread out the wings of the cherubs, and a wing of the one cometh against the wall, and a wing of the second cherub is coming against the second wall, and their wings [are] unto the midst of the house, coming wing against wing;

28 I whakakikoruatia ano e ia nga kerupima ki te korua

and he overlayeth the cherubs with gold,

29 He mea tuhi ano nana nga taha katoa o te whare a tawhio noa, he kerupima nga mea i tuhia iho, he nikau, he puawai kowhera, ki roto, ki waho.

and all the walls of the house round about he hath carved with openings of carvings, cherubs, and palm trees, and openings of flowers, within and without.

30 I whakakikoruatia ano e ia nga papa o raro o te whare ki te koura, o roto, o waho.

And the floor of the house he hath overlaid with gold, within and without;

31 Na, ko nga tatau mo te kuwaha o te ahurewa, i hanga e ia ki te oriwa te rakau: i riro i te korupe me nga pou tatau, kotahi o nga wahi e rima o te patu.

as to the opening of the oracle, he made doors of the oil-tree; the lintel, side-posts, a fifth.

32 Heoi hanga ana e ia e rua nga tatau, he oriwa te rakau; tuhia iho e ia, he kerupima nga mea i tuhia, he nikau, he puawai kowhera, whakakikoruatia ana e ia ki te koura; i tohaina iho ano e ia te koura ki runga ki nga kerupima, ki nga nikau.

And the two doors [are] of the oil-tree, and he hath carved upon them carvings of cherubs, and palm-trees, and openings of flowers, and overlaid with gold, and he causeth the gold to go down on the cherubs and on the palm-trees.

33 Pera tonu tana hanga i nga pou mo te tatau o te temepara, he oriwa te rakau; ko te matotoru, ko te wha o nga wahi o te patu;

And so he hath made for the opening of the temple, side-posts of the oil-tree, from the fourth.

34 A e rua nga tatau, he kauri te rakau; he mea whakakopa nga taha e rua o tetahi tatau, a he mea whakakopa nga taha e rua o tetahi tatau.

And the two doors [are] of fir-tree, the two sides of the one door are revolving, and the two hangings of the second door are revolving.

35 I tuhia ano e ia he kerupima ki aua tatau, he nikau, he puawai kowhera; a whakakikoruatia iho ki te koura, he mea whakanoho iho ki runga ki te whakairo.

And he hath carved cherubs, and palms, and openings of flowers, and overlaid with straightened gold the graved work.

36 I hanga ano e ia to roto marae, e toru nga rarangi o te kohatu tarai; me te rarangi kurupae, he hita.

And he buildeth the inner court, three rows of hewn work, and a row of beams of cedar.

37 No te wha o nga tau i whakatakotoria ai te turanga o te whare o Ihowa, ko Tiwhi te marama.

In the fourth year hath the house of Jehovah been founded, in the month Zif,

38 A no te tekau ma tahi o nga tau, no marama Puru, ara no te waru o nga marama i oti ai nga aha katoa o te whare, ara nga mea katoa i whakaritea mona. E whitu nga tau e hanga ana ia i taua whare.

and in the eleventh year, in the month Bul — [that is] the eighth month — hath the house been finished in all its matters, and in all its ordinances, and he buildeth it seven years.
