2 Khokhuen 4
1 Rhohum hmueihtuk te a yun dong kul, a daang dong kul, a sang dong rha la a saii.
Solomon made a bronze altar twenty cubits long, twenty cubits wide, and ten cubits high.
2 Tuili te a saii tih a rhai lamloh a rhai hil te dong rha la a hlawn. a kaepvai pumrhuelh te khaw rhui a sen dong nga neh a kaep ah a yen vaengah dong sawmthum lo.
He made a “Sea” from cast metal, ten cubits in diameter, five cubits in height, and thirty cubits in circumference.
3 A hmui ah vaito muei om tih a kaep, kaep ah a vael uh. Te te dong khat dongah pumrha neh a vael. Tuili kaep kah vaito than nit te a hlawnnah neh a hlawn.
Below it were ornamental bulls all around it, ten per cubit. They were in two rows when it was all cast.
4 Tuli te vaito pum hlai nit soah a pai sak. Pathum te tlangpuei la mael, pathum te tuipuei la mael, pathum te tuithim la mael, pathum te khocuk la mael. Te rhoek dongkah a so ah tuili te om tih a hnuk boeih te a khui la sisukuh.
The Sea was supported by twelve statues of bulls three facing north, three facing west, three facing south, and three facing east. The Sea was placed on them, with their rears toward the center.
5 A thah kutsom pakhat lo tih a rhai te boengloeng rhai mueimae bangla om. Rhaiphuelh tuilipai a doeng tih bath thawng thum kun.
It was as thick as the width of a hand, and its edge was like the flared edge of a cup or a lily flower. It held three thousand baths.
6 Baeldung khaw parha a saii tih bantang ah panga, banvoei ah panga a khueh. A khuiah hmueihhlutnah hnopai a silh uh tih te khuiah te a hoek uh. Tedae tuili kah a khuiah te khosoih rhoek loh tui a hluk uh.
He also made ten basins on carts for washing. He placed five on the south side, and five on the north. They were used for cleaning what was used in burnt offerings, but the Sea was used by the priests for washing.
7 Sui hmaitung parha te amamih kah khosing bangla a saii tih bawkim khuiah te bantang ah panga, banvoei ah panga a khueh.
He made ten gold lampstands as had been specified, and placed them in the Temple, five on the south side and five on the north.
8 Caboei parha a saii tih bawkim khuikah bantang ah panga, banvoei ah panga a hol. Sui baelcak khaw yakhat a saii.
In addition he made ten tables and placed them in the Temple, five on the south side and five on the north. He also made a hundred gold basins.
9 Khosoih rhoek kah vongup khaw tungkha a len neh thungkha dongkah thohkhaih te a saii tih a thohkhaih te rhohum a ben thil.
Solomon also built a courtyard of the priests, and the large courtyard and doors for the courtyard, and he covered the doors with bronze.
10 Tuili te khaw khothoeng bantang hael kah tuithim imdan ah a khueh.
He placed the Sea on the south side, by the southeast corner.
11 Huram loh am neh hmaisoh khaw, baelcak khaw a saii. Huram Khiram loh bitat a saii te a khah coeng. Te te manghai Solomon hamla Pathen im ah a saii pah.
Hiram also made the pots, shovels, and basins. Hiram completed the work that he had been doing for King Solomon on the Temple of God:
12 Tung panit neh tuidueh khaw, tung soi rhoi kah tungthi khaw, tung soi, tungthi dongkah tuidueh rhoi aka cam sahamlong rhoi khaw,
the two columns; the two bowl-shaped capitals on top of the columns; the two sets of network that covered both bowls of the capitals on top of the columns;
13 Sahamlong rhoi dongkah hamla tale thaih ya li lo. Sahamlong pakhat dongah tale thaih than nit om tih tung soi tungthi dongkah tuidueh rhoi te a thingcam.
the four hundred ornamental pomegranates for the two sets of network—two rows of pomegranates for each network covering both the bowl-shaped capitals on top of the columns;
14 Tungkho khaw a saii tih tungkho soah baeldung a saii.
the water carts and the basins on the water carts;
15 Tuili pakhat te khaw a hmui ah vaito hlai nit.
the Sea and the twelve bull statues that supported it; the pots, shovels, forks, and everything else.
16 Te phoeiah am neh hmaisoh khaw, ciksum neh hnopai boeih khaw a saii. Te rhoek Huramabi loh manghai Solomon ham neh BOEIPA im ham rhohum met neh a saii.
All the metalwork Hiram made for King Solomon for the house of the Lord was of polished bronze.
17 Te rhoek te Jordan vannaem kah Sukkoth laklo neh Zeredah laklo, lai thah dongah manghai loh a saii.
The king cast them in clay molds in the plain of the Jordan between Succoth and Zeredah.
18 He hnopai boeih he Solomon loh a cungkuem la muep a saii tih rhohum kah a khiing te khe lek pawh.
Solomon made so many of these things that the weight of the bronze used could not be measured.
19 Solomon loh Pathen im kah hnopai cungkuem, sui hmueihtuk neh caboei khaw a so kah a hmai buh khaw a saii.
Solomon also made everything used in the Temple of God: the golden altar; the tables where the Bread of the Presence was displayed;
20 Hmaitung neh a hmaithoi dongkah a a tok ham khaw cangimphu hmai ah a khosing bangla sui cilh neh a saii.
the lampstands of pure gold and their lamps that were to burn in front of the Most Holy Place as specified;
21 Rhaiphuelh neh hmaithoi khaw, sui paitaeh he khaw sui kak ni.
the decorative flowers, lamps, and tongs—all made of solid gold;
22 Te phoeiah paitaeh neh baelcak khaw, yakbu neh baelphaih khaw sui kak ni. Im thohka kah a thohkhaih khaw, hmuencim kah hmuencim khui khaw, sui bawkim kah im thohkhaih khaw a saii.
the wick trimmers, basins, dishes and censers—all made of gold; and the doors of the Temple: the inner doors to the Most Holy Place, and the doors of the main hall—all covered with gold.
