1 Isala: ili fi da Idibidi soge yolesili, ode 480 agoane gidigili amola ode biyadu Soloumane ea ouligibi galu, oubi ageyadu (Sife oubi) amoga, Soloumane da Debolo hawa: hamosu mui.
480 years after the Israeli people left Egypt, during the fourth year that Solomon ruled Israel, early in May, Solomon’s workers began to build the temple.
2 Debolo ea gelaba ganodini defei sedade da 27 mida, ba: de defei da 9 mida amola gagagula heda: i defei da 13.5 mida.
Inside, [the main part of] the temple was 90 feet long, 30 feet wide, and 45 feet high.
3 Debolo ea golili dasu sesei sedade defei da 4.5 mida amola amo ea ba: de defei da 9 mida.
The entrance room was 15 feet long and 30 feet wide, just as wide as the main part of the temple.
4 Debolo ea dobea ganodini, fo misa: ne agenesi ba: i. Amo ilia gadili defei da ganodini defei baligi ba: i.
There were windows in [the walls of] the temple. The windows were narrower on the outside than on the inside.
5 Debolo gadili dobea (la: ididili amola baligidu galu) amoga segagi dialebe ba: i. Ilia da udiana agoane gagagula heda: i ba: i. Amo afae afae ea gagagula heda: i defei da 2.2 mida.
Against the two sides and against the back of the temple walls, they built a structure/building that had rooms in it. [This structure had three levels/stories and each was 7-1/2 feet high].
6 Amo diasu ganodini, sesei huluane hagudu gagui ganodini ea ba: de defei da 2.2 mida, dogoa gagui ea ba: de defei da 2.7 mida amola gadodafa gagui ea ba: de defei da 3.1 mida. Debolo diasudafa ea dobea fefela heda: i hagudu defei da gadugagi amola gado heda: su fa: gu agoane fofonobona gado heda: i. Amo gagui ea bai da segagi gagui ilia da fofa: gusa heda: i amo da: iya fima: ne hahamoi. Amalalu, segagi sesei ilia dawalo da debolo dobea hame badofale afufui.
[Each room in] the lowest level/story was 7-1/2 feet wide. [Each room in] the middle level/story was nine feet wide. [The rooms in] the top level/story were 10-1/2 feet wide. The wall of the temple at the top level/story was thinner than the wall at the middle level/story, and the wall of the middle level/story was thinner than the wall at the bottom level/story. The result was that the rooms could be supported by the wall underneath them, and did not require wooden beams to support them.
7 Debolo gagumusa: , ilia da gele amo gele hahamosu sogebi amoga fawane hahamoi. Amaiba: le, ilia da Debolo diasu gaguloba, ha: ma amola goahei amola eno gula hawa: hamosu liligi ilia gadenagadenabe da hame nabasu.
The huge stones for [the foundation of] the temple were cut and shaped at the quarry [to become very smooth]. The result was that while the workers were building the temple there was no noise, because they did not use hammers or chisels or any other iron tools there.
8 Hagududafa segagi ea golili dasu da Debolo ga (south) la: ididili dialebe ba: i. Amoga, fa: gu da dogoa segagi amola gadodafa segagi amoga heda: musa: dialebe ba: i.
The entrance to the bottom level/story [of that attached structure] was on the south side of the temple. There were stairs from the bottom level/story to the middle and top level/story.
9 Amaiba: le, hina bagade Soloumane da Debolo diasu gagui dagoi ba: i. E da Debolo diasu dia: ne gala: i amo dawalo amola gaga: i amo dolo ifaga hamoi.
So Solomon’s [workers] finished building the [framework of the] temple. They made the ceiling from cedar beams and boards.
10 Segagi udiana agoane afae afae ilia gagagula heda: i ea defei da 2.2 mida. Ilia da Debolo dobea gadili gagui amola dolo ifa dawalo amoga Debolo dobea damana disi.
They built the structure that had three levels/stories, that was against the walls of the temple. Each level/story was 7-1/2 feet high, and was joined to the temple with cedar beams.
11 Hina Gode da Soloumanema amane sia: i,
Then Yahweh said this to Solomon:
12 “Di da Na sema amola Na hamoma: ne sia: i amo defele hamosea, Na da dia ada Da: ibidima hamomusa: ilegei huluane dima hamomu.
“[I want to tell you] about this temple that you are building. If you continually obey all my statutes and laws and commands, I will do for you what I promised to your father David.
13 Na da Na Isala: ili fi dunu ili bisili Debolo diasu dia gagulalebe, amo ganodini esalumu. Amola Na da ili hamedafa yolesimu.”
I will live among the Israeli people, [in this temple, ] and I will never abandon them.”
14 Amaiba: le, Soloumane da Debolo diasu gagulalu, amo dagoi.
Solomon’s [workers] finished building the temple.
15 Debolo diasu dobea ganodini da dolo ifa gaga: iga fele sali. Hada: i da ‘baine’ ifa amoga fa: i.
On the inside, they lined/covered the walls with cedar boards. They lined/covered them from the floor to the ceiling. They made the floor from cypress boards.
16 Ganodini sesei ea dio da Hadigidafa Momei Sesei da Debolo diasu bagia guma: didili gagui dialebe ba: i. Amo sesei sedade defei da9 mida. Amola dolo ifa gaga: i da hada: i da: iya gudunini heda: le, dia: ne gala: i amoga disisi.
Inside the back part of the temple they built an inner room, called the Very Holy Place. It was 30 feet long. All the walls of this room were lined with cedar boards.
17 Sesei eno (Hadigi Malei Sesei) amo da Hadigidafa Momei Sesei ea midadi galu. Ea sedade defei da18 mida agoane galu.
In front of the Very Holy Place there was a room that was 60 feet long.
18 Dolo ifa gaga: i amo damana da ganagu amola sogea fafalegaila dedenesisi. Debolo diasu ganodini, dobea huluanedafa da dolo ifa ga: i ba: dedafa amoga dedeboiba: le, gelega dobea sali da ba: mu gogolei.
The cedar [boards on the walls] inside the temple were decorated with carvings of gourds and flowers. [The walls were] completely covered with cedar boards, with the result that the stones [of the walls behind them] could not be seen.
19 Debolo diasu bagia guma: dini amo ganodini sesei gagui dialebe ba: i. Amo ganodini ilia da Hina Gode Ea Sema Gousa: su Gagili ligisimusa: gagui.
At the back of the temple they made the Very Holy Place, where the Sacred Chest would be put.
20 Amo sesei sedade defei da 9 mida agoane amola ba: de defei da 9 mida amola gagagula heda: i defei da 9 mida. Amo huluane da gouliga dedeboi. Oloda da dolo ifa gaga: iga dedeboi ba: i.
That room was 30 feet long, 30 feet wide, and 30 feet high. They covered the walls with [very thin sheets of] pure gold. [For burning incense] they also made an altar of cedar [boards].
21 Debolo diasu amo ganodini huluane da gouliga dedeboi ba: i. Hadigidafa Momei Sesei amola da gouliga dedeboi. Amola ea golili dasu logo da gouliga hahamoi sia: inega ga: i.
Solomon told them to cover the other walls inside the temple with [very thin sheets of] pure gold and to fasten gold chains across the entrance to the Very Holy Place.
22 Debolo diasu ganodini huluanedafa da gouliga dedeboi. Amola oloda amo da Hadigidafa Momei Sesei ganodini galu da gouliga dedeboi ba: i.
They covered all the walls of the temple and the altar that was outside the Very Holy Place with [very thin sheets of] gold.
23 Sio ougia gala liligi (sielabimi) olife ifa amoga hamoi da Hadigidafa Momei Sesei amo ganodini ligisi dialebe ba: i. Ela afae afae sedade defei da 4.4 mida.
Inside the Very Holy Place, they made from olive tree wood [large statues of] two creatures with wings. Each one was 15 feet tall.
24 Ela defei amola damui defei da afaididi ba: i. Ela afae afae da sio ougia aduna galu. Amo ougia ilia sedade defei da 2.2 mida. Amaiba: le, ela la: idi ougia feganini asili la: idi fega doaga: i da 4.4 mida agoane.
They each were the same size and had the same shape. They each had two wings [which were spread out]. Each wing was 7-1/2 feet long, with the result that the distance between the outer ends of the two wings was 15 feet.
27 Ela da Hadigidafa Momei Sesei ganodini dafulili ligisi dialebe ba: i. Amola ela ougia da: legai aduna da sesei dogoa amoga di dialebe ba: i. Amola ela ougia eno aduna da sesei ea dobea amoga digi ba: i.
They put those statues next to each other in the Very Holy Place so that the wing of the one touched the one wing of the other in the center of the room, and the outer wings touched the walls.
28 Amo ougia hamoi liligi aduna da gouliga dedeboi.
They covered the statues with [very thin sheets of] gold.
29 Hadigidafa Momei Sesei amola Hadigi Malei Sesei elea dobea huluane da ougia hamoi liligi amola gumudilabo amola sogea fafalegai amoga dedenesisi.
[Solomon told them to] decorate the walls of the main room and the Very Holy Place by carving representations of winged creatures and palm trees and flowers.
30 Hada: i fa: i amolawane da gouliga dedeboi.
They also covered the floor of both rooms with [very thin sheets of] gold.
31 Hadigidafa Momei Sesei ea golili dasu logoga, seselefasu logo ga: su da olife ifaga hamoi dialebe ba: i. Logo holei dabua gadodili da agesone gadoi ba: i.
They made a set of doors from olive tree wood, and placed them at the entrance to the Very Holy Place. The doorposts joined at the top to form a pointed arch.
32 Amo logo ga: su da ougia hamoi liligi amola gumudilabo amola sogea fafalegai amoga dedenesisi ba: i. Logo ga: su amola ougia hamoi liligi amola gumudilabo huluane amo da gouliga dedeboi ba: i.
The doors were decorated by carving on them representations of winged creatures, palm trees, and flowers. All of these things were covered with [very thin sheets of] gold.
33 Debolo diasu ea golili dasudafa logo holei amo da olife ifaga hamoi.
They made a rectangular door frame from olive tree wood, and put it [between the entrance room and] the main room.
34 Amo logo holei da seselefasu logo ga: su aduna, amo ‘baine’ ifaga hamoi, amoga ga: i.
They made two folding doors from cypress wood [and fastened them to the door frame].
35 Amo logo ga: su damana da ougia hamoi liligi, gumudilabo amola sogea fafalegai amoga dedenesisi. Amo huluane da gouliga dedeboi.
The doors were also decorated with wood carvings of winged creatures, palm trees, and flowers, and they were also covered evenly with [very thin sheets of] gold.
36 Debolo diasu midadi amoga ilia da gagole disi. Ilia da gele udiana fofa: la heda: le, amalu dolo ifa ga: i beano fa: lalu bu gele udiana fofa: le, dolo ifa eno ga: i beano fa: i, amo heda: i.
They built a courtyard in front of the temple. The walls around the courtyard were made of cedar and stone; to make the walls, between each layer of cedar beams they put down two layers of stone.
37 Ilia da oubi ageyadu (Sife oubi) amola ode biyadu Soloumane ea ouligilaloba, Debolo diasu ea bai fa: i.
They laid the foundation of the temple of Yahweh in early May, in the fourth year [that Solomon ruled].
38 Oubi godo (Bulu oubi) amola ode gida Soloumane ea ouligilaloba, Debolo diasu da ili gagumusa: dawa: i, amo defele gaguli dagoi ba: i. Soloumane da ode fesuale agoanega Debolo diasu gaguli dagoi.
In the eleventh year [that he ruled], in the middle of October, they finished building the temple and all of its parts, doing exactly what Solomon told them to do. It required seven years to build it.
