٢ أخبار 3

١ 1 وَشَرَعَ سُلَيْمَانُ فِي بِنَاءِ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ، فِي جَبَلِ ٱلْمُرِيَّا حَيْثُ تَرَاءَى لِدَاوُدَ أَبِيهِ، حَيْثُ هَيَّأَ دَاوُدُ مَكَانًا فِي بَيْدَرِ أُرْنَانَ ٱلْيَبُوسِيِّ.

Then Solomon began to build the house of the LORD at Jerusalem in mount Moriah, where [the Lord] appeared unto David his father, in the place that David had prepared in the threshingfloor of Ornan the Jebusite.

٢ 2 وَشَرَعَ فِي ٱلْبِنَاءِ فِي ثَانِي ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلثَّانِي فِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلرَّابِعَةِ لِمُلْكِهِ.

And he began to build in the second [day] of the second month, in the fourth year of his reign.

٣ 3 وَهَذِهِ أَسَّسَهَا سُلَيْمَانُ لِبِنَاءِ بَيْتِ ٱللهِ: ٱلطُّولُ بِٱلذِّرَاعِ عَلَى ٱلْقِيَاسِ ٱلْأَوَّلِ سِتُّونَ ذِرَاعًا، وَٱلْعَرْضُ عِشْرُونَ ذِرَاعًا.

Now these [are the things wherein] Solomon was instructed for the building of the house of God. The length by cubits after the first measure [was] threescore cubits, and the breadth twenty cubits.

٤ 4 وَٱلرِّواقُ ٱلَّذِي قُدَّامَ ٱلطُّولِ حَسَبَ عَرْضِ ٱلْبَيْتِ عِشْرُونَ ذِرَاعًا، وَٱرْتِفَاعُهُ مِئَةٌ وَعِشْرُونَ، وَغَشَّاهُ مِنْ دَاخِلٍ بِذَهَبٍ خَالِصٍ.

And the porch that [was] in the front [of the house], the length [of it was] according to the breadth of the house, twenty cubits, and the height [was] an hundred and twenty: and he overlaid it within with pure gold.

٥ 5 وَٱلْبَيْتُ ٱلْعَظِيمُ غَشَّاهُ بِخَشَبِ سَرْوٍ، غَشَّاهُ بِذَهَبٍ خَالِصٍ، وَجَعَلَ عَلَيْهِ نَخِيلًا وَسَلَاسِلَ.

And the greater house he cieled with fir tree, which he overlaid with fine gold, and set thereon palm trees and chains.

٦ 6 وَرَصَّعَ ٱلْبَيْتَ بِحِجَارَةٍ كَرِيمَةٍ لِلْجَمَالِ. وَٱلذَّهَبُ ذَهَبُ فَرَوَايِمَ.

And he garnished the house with precious stones for beauty: and the gold [was] gold of Parvaim.

٧ 7 وَغَشَّى ٱلْبَيْتَ: أَخْشَابَهُ وَأَعْتَابَهُ وَحِيطَانَهُ وَمَصَارِيعَهُ بِذَهَبٍ، وَنَقَشَ كَرُوبِيمَ عَلَى ٱلْحِيطَانِ.

He overlaid also the house, the beams, the posts, and the walls thereof, and the doors thereof, with gold; and graved cherubims on the walls.

٨ 8 وَعَمِلَ بَيْتَ قُدْسِ ٱلْأَقْدَاسِ، طُولُهُ حَسَبَ عَرْضِ ٱلْبَيْتِ عِشْرُونَ ذِرَاعًا، وَعَرْضُهُ عِشْرُونَ ذِرَاعًا، وَغَشَّاهُ بِذَهَبٍ جَيِّدٍ سِتِّ مِئَةِ وَزْنَةٍ.

And he made the most holy house, the length whereof [was] according to the breadth of the house, twenty cubits, and the breadth thereof twenty cubits: and he overlaid it with fine gold, [amounting] to six hundred talents.

٩ 9 وَكَانَ وَزْنُ ٱلْمَسَامِيرِ خَمْسِينَ شَاقِلًا مِنْ ذَهَبٍ، وَغَشَّى ٱلْعَلَالِيَّ بِذَهَبٍ.

And the weight of the nails [was] fifty shekels of gold. And he overlaid the upper chambers with gold.

١٠ 10 وَعَمِلَ فِي بَيْتِ قُدْسِ ٱلْأَقْدَاسِ كَرُوبَيْنِ صَنَاعَةَ ٱلصِّيَاغَةِ، وَغَشَّاهُمَا بِذَهَبٍ.

And in the most holy house he made two cherubims of image work, and overlaid them with gold.

١١ 11 وَأَجْنِحَةُ ٱلْكَرُوبَيْنِ طُولُهَا عِشْرُونَ ذِرَاعًا، ٱلْجَنَاحُ ٱلْوَاحِدُ خَمْسُ أَذْرُعٍ يَمَسُّ حَائِطَ ٱلْبَيْتِ، وَٱلْجَنَاحُ ٱلْآخَرُ خَمْسُ أَذْرُعٍ يَمَسُّ جَنَاحَ ٱلْكَرُوبِ ٱلْآخَرِ.

And the wings of the cherubims [were] twenty cubits long: one wing [of the one cherub was] five cubits, reaching to the wall of the house: and the other wing [was likewise] five cubits, reaching to the wing of the other cherub.

١٢ 12 وَجَنَاحُ ٱلْكَرُوبِ ٱلْآخَرِ خَمْسُ أَذْرُعٍ يَمَسُّ حَائِطَ ٱلْبَيْتِ، وَٱلْجَنَاحُ ٱلْآخَرُ خَمْسُ أَذْرُعٍ يَتَّصِلُ بِجَنَاحِ ٱلْكَرُوبِ ٱلْآخَرِ.

And [one] wing of the other cherub [was] five cubits, reaching to the wall of the house: and the other wing [was] five cubits [also], joining to the wing of the other cherub.

١٣ 13 وَأَجْنِحَةُ هَذَيْنِ ٱلْكَرُوبَيْنِ مُنْبَسِطَةٌ عِشْرُونَ ذِرَاعًا، وَهُمَا وَاقِفَانِ عَلَى أَرْجُلِهِمَا وَوَجْهُهُمَا إِلَى دَاخِلٍ.

The wings of these cherubims spread themselves forth twenty cubits: and they stood on their feet, and their faces [were] inward.

١٤ 14 وَعَمِلَ ٱلْحِجَابَ مِنْ أَسْمَانْجُونِيٍّ وَأُرْجُوانٍ وَقِرْمِزٍ وَكَتَّانٍ، وَجَعَلَ عَلَيْهِ كَرُوبِيمَ.

And he made the vail [of] blue, and purple, and crimson, and fine linen, and wrought cherubims thereon.

١٥ 15 وَعَمِلَ أَمَامَ ٱلْبَيْتِ عَمُودَيْنِ، طُولُهُمَا خَمْسٌ وَثَلَاثُونَ ذِرَاعًا، وَٱلتَّاجَانِ ٱللَّذَانِ عَلَى رَأْسَيْهِمَا خَمْسُ أَذْرُعٍ.

Also he made before the house two pillars of thirty and five cubits high, and the chapiter that [was] on the top of each of them [was] five cubits.

١٦ 16 وَعَمِلَ سَلَاسِلَ كَمَا فِي ٱلْمِحْرَابِ وَجَعَلَهَا عَلَى رَأْسَيِ ٱلْعَمُودَيْنِ، وَعَمِلَ مِئَةَ رُمَّانَةٍ وَجَعَلَهَا فِي ٱلسَّلَاسِلِ.

And he made chains, [as] in the oracle, and put [them] on the heads of the pillars; and made an hundred pomegranates, and put [them] on the chains.

١٧ 17 وَأَوْقَفَ ٱلْعَمُودَيْنِ أَمَامَ ٱلْهَيْكَلِ، وَاحِدًا عَنِ ٱلْيَمِينِ وَوَاحِدًا عَنِ ٱلْيَسَارِ، وَدَعَا ٱسْمَ ٱلْأَيْمَنِ «يَاكِينَ» وَٱسْمَ ٱلْأَيْسَرِ «بُوعَزَ».

And he reared 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 Jachin, and the name of that on the left Boaz.
