2 Krønikebok 3
1 So tok Salomo til å byggja Herrens hus i Jerusalem, på Moriafjellet der Herren hadde openberra seg for David, far hans, på den staden som David hadde laga til på treskjaarvollen åt jebusiten Ornan.
Then Solomon began to build the house of YHWH at Jerusalem on Mount Moriah, where he appeared to David his father, at the place that David had designated, on the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
2 Han tok til å byggja på den andre dagen i den andre månaden i sitt fjorde styringsår.
And he began to build in the second month, in the fourth year of his reign.
3 Då no Salomo skulde byggja Guds hus, lagde han grunnen soleis: Lengdi var seksti alner etter det gamle målet, og breiddi tjuge alner.
Now these are the foundations which Solomon laid for the building of God's house. The length, using the former standard measure, was one hundred three feet and four inches, and the breadth was thirty-four feet and five inches, and its height was fifty-one feet and eight inches.
4 Forhalli som låg framanfor langhuset, framanfor breidsida, var tjuge alner lang og hundrad og tjuge alner høg, og innvendes klædde han henne med skirt gull.
The porch that was in front of the house was the same as the width of the house, thirty-four feet and five inches, and the depth was seventeen feet and three inches; and he overlaid it on the inside with pure gold.
5 Hovudromet klædde han med cypresstre, og han klædde det dessutan med egte gull og prydde det med palmor og kransar.
The greater house he made a ceiling with fir wood, which he overlaid with fine gold, and ornamented it with palm trees and chains.
6 Han klædde romet med dyre steinar til prydnad, og gullet var kome frå Parvajim.
He garnished the house with precious stones for beauty: and the gold was gold of Parvaim.
7 Og han klædde huset, bjelkarne, dørstokkarne og veggjerne og dørerne med gull og skar ut kerubar i veggjerne.
He overlaid also the house, the beams, the thresholds, and its walls, and its doors, with gold; and engraved cherubim on the walls.
8 Romet for det høgheilage bygde han soleis at lengdi etter breidsida åt hovudromet var tjuge alner, og breiddi tjuge alner, og han klædde det med egte gull, som vog femtan hundrad våger.
He made the most holy house: its length, according to the breadth of the house, was thirty-four feet and five inches, and its breadth thirty-four feet and five inches; and he overlaid it with fine gold, amounting to six hundred talents.
9 Vegti på spikrarne var seksti lodd i gull; dei øvre romi klædde han med gull.
The weight of the nails was fifty shekels of gold. He overlaid the upper rooms with gold.
10 I det høgheilage romet gjorde han tvo kerubar i bilætskurd, og deim klædde han med gull.
In the most holy house he made two cherubim of sculptured work; and he overlaid them with gold.
11 Vengjerne på kerubarne var tjuge alner i lengd; den eine vengen på den eine keruben var fem alner lang og tok veggen i romet, og den andre vengen var og fem alner lang og tok i vengen på den andre keruben;
The wings of the cherubim were thirty-four feet and five inches: the wing of the one was eight feet and seven inches, reaching to the wall of the house; and the other wing was eight feet and seven inches, reaching to the wing of the other cherub.
12 og den eine vengen på den andre keruben var fem alner lang og tok veggen i romet, og den andre vengen var og fem alner lang og nådde til vengen på den fyrste keruben.
The wing of the other cherub was eight feet and seven inches, reaching to the wall of the house; and the other wing was eight feet and seven inches, joining to the wing of the other cherub.
13 Vengjerne på desse kerubarne var tjuge alner i si fulle lengd; og dei stod upprette og snudde andliti innetter.
The wings of these cherubim were extended thirty-four feet and five inches: and they stood on their feet, and their faces were toward the house.
14 Og han gjorde forhenget purpurblått og purpurraudt og karmesinraudt og kvitt garn, og han prydde det med kerubar.
He made the veil of blue, and purple, and crimson, and fine linen, and ornamented it with cherubim.
15 Og han gjorde tvo sulor til å standa framanfor huset. Dei var fem og tretti alner høge, og hovudet på deim var fem alner.
Also he made before the house two pillars sixty feet and three inches high, and the capital that was on the top of each of them was eight feet and seven inches.
16 Dessutan gjorde han hengjekransar til koren og sette deim på det øvste av sulorne; og på hjengjekransarne sette han hundrad granateple.
He made chains in the inner sanctuary, and put them on the tops of the pillars; and he made one hundred pomegranates, and put them on the chains.
17 Sulorne sette han framanfor templet, ei til høgre og ei til vinstre; den som var høgre, kalla han Jakin, den vinstre Boaz.
He set up the pillars before the temple, one on the right hand, and the other on the left; and called the name of that on the right hand Jakin, and the name of that on the left Boaz.
