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, which he made ready in the place that David had appointed, in the threshing-floor 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 foundations which Solomon laid 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 before [the house], the length of it, according to the breadth of the house, was twenty cubits, and the height 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 wrought 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 thresholds, and the walls thereof, and the doors thereof, with gold; and graved cherubim 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 thereof, according to the breadth of the house, was 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 cherubim of image work; and they 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 cherubim were twenty cubits long: the 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 the 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 cherubim spread themselves forth twenty cubits: and they stood on their feet, and their faces were toward the house.

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

And he made the veil of blue, and purple, and crimson, and fine linen, and wrought cherubim 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 in the oracle, and put [them] on the tops of the pillars; and he 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 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 Jachin, and the name of that on the left Boaz.
