1 Hahoi hettelah ao. Isarel catounnaw Izip ram dawk hoi a tâco nahoi kum 480, Isarelnaw Solomon ni a uknae kum 4 nah, Ziv thapa, ayung hni nah BAWIPA e im sak hane a kamtawng awh.
And it came to pass in the four hundred and eightieth year after the children of Israel were come out of the land of Egypt, in the fourth year of Solomon’s reign over Israel, in the month Zif, which [is] the second month, that he began to build the house of the LORD.
2 Solomon ni BAWIPA e im a sak e teh ayung dong 60, adangka dong 20, arasang dong 30 touh a pha.
And the house which king Solomon built for the LORD, the length thereof [was] threescore cubits, and the breadth thereof twenty [cubits], and the height thereof thirty cubits.
3 Hahoi im hmuen kathoung imhma lae alawilah teh, adangka hoi kâvan lah dong 20 touh a saw teh, a hma lae adangka teh dong 10 touh a pha.
And the porch before the temple of the house, twenty cubits [was] the length thereof, according to the breadth of the house; [and] ten cubits [was] the breadth thereof before the house.
4 Im dawk ang sak nahanelah kathounge hlalangawnaw hai a sak.
And for the house he made windows of narrow lights.
5 Bawkim tapang hoi kâkuen lah imrakhan buet touh a sak teh, hot ni yah bawkim tapang koung a kalup. Thoungnae hoi athungpoung lae hmuen kathoung hai mek a kalup sin teh, petkâkalup lah rakhancanaw hah a sak.
And against the wall of the house he built chambers round about, [against] the walls of the house round about, [both] of the temple and of the oracle: and he made chambers round about:
6 A rahim lae rakhan teh dong 5, alungui e rakhan teh dong 6, a lathueng e rakhan teh dong 7 touh a pha. Bangkongtetpawiteh, rakhannaw teh im e tapang dawk kâen hoeh.
The nethermost chamber [was] five cubits broad, and the middle [was] six cubits broad, and the third [was] seven cubits broad: for without [in the wall] of the house he made narrowed rests round about, that [the beams] should not be fastened in the walls of the house.
7 Hahoi, Bawkim a sak awh nah, hote hmuen koe sin hoehnahlan dêi tangcoung e talungnaw hoi sak e lah ao dawkvah, cakkin, cakâ, sum pawlawk bawkim thung thai e lah awm hoeh.
And the house, when it was in building, was built of stone made ready before it was brought thither: so that there was neither hammer nor axe [nor] any tool of iron heard in the house, while it was in building.
8 A rahim e rakhan dawk kâennae tho teh, bawkim e arasang lah a o, alungui e rakhan dawk teh khalai hoi luen lah ao teh, alungui e rakhan dawk hoi a lathueng e khan dawk luen lah ao.
The door for the middle chamber [was] in the right side of the house: and they went up with winding stairs into the middle [chamber], and out of the middle into the third.
9 Hottelah bawkim teh a cum awh. Bawkim e parei thingtunaw hah Sidar thing e pangkhek hoi thingphek hoi a ramuk awh.
So he built the house, and finished it; and covered the house with beams and boards of cedar.
10 Bawkim petkâkalup lah sak e a dotnaw teh, a rasang dong 5, imhmawt teh bawkim dawk a kâkuetsak.
And [then] he built chambers against all the house, five cubits high: and they rested on the house [with] timber of cedar.
11 BAWIPA e lawk Solomon koe a pha teh,
And the word of the LORD came to Solomon, saying,
12 Na sak lahun e bawkim kong dawk, ka phunglam, lawkcengnae hoi kâpoelawknaw pueng na tarawi pawiteh, na pa Devit koe ka dei tangcoung e kâlawk hah na lathueng vah ka cak sak han.
[Concerning] this house which thou art in building, if thou wilt walk in my statutes, and execute my judgments, and keep all my commandments to walk in them; then will I perform my word with thee, which I spake unto David thy father:
13 Isarel catounnaw koe kho ka sak vaiteh, ka tami Isarelnaw heh ka cettakhai mahoeh telah a ti.
And I will dwell among the children of Israel, and will not forsake my people Israel.
14 Hottelah, Solomon ni bawkim a sak teh a cum.
So Solomon built the house, and finished it.
15 Bawkim a thung lae tapang teh Sidar thing hoi a sak. Carawng hoi lemphu, tapang totouh a thung e rakhan totouh, koung a bet, carawng teh hmaica thing hoi a sak.
And he built the walls of the house within with boards of cedar, both the floor of the house, and the walls of the cieling: [and] he covered [them] on the inside with wood, and covered the floor of the house with planks of fir.
16 Hmuen kathoung hoi kathoungpounge hmuen hanlah ayung, adangka dong 20 touh ka kaw e im hah rakhan teh carawng teh Sidar thing hoi a sak.
And he built twenty cubits on the sides of the house, both the floor and the walls with boards of cedar: he even built [them] for it within, [even] for the oracle, [even] for the most holy [place].
17 Hote rakhan hmalah sak e bawkim teh, ayung dong 40 touh a pha.
And the house, that [is], the temple before it, was forty cubits [long].
18 Bawkim thungvah, Sidar thingpheknaw dawk tuiumpaw, a peinaw hoi akawi, talung kamnue hoeh nahanelah Sidar thing hoi a ramuk.
And the cedar of the house within [was] carved with knops and open flowers: all [was] cedar; there was no stone seen.
19 Hottelah, BAWIPA e lawkkam thingkong hruek nahanelah, bawkim thungvah hmuen kathoung a rakueng awh.
And the oracle he prepared in the house within, to set there the ark of the covenant of the LORD.
20 Hote hmuen kathoung teh ayung dong 20, adangka dong 20, arasang dong 20 touh a pha. Hot teh, kathounge suitui hoi a hluk teh, Sidar khoungroe hai a hluk.
And the oracle in the forepart [was] twenty cubits in length, and twenty cubits in breadth, and twenty cubits in the height thereof: and he overlaid it with pure gold; and [so] covered the altar [which was of] cedar.
21 Hottelah, Solomon ni bawkim thung teh kathounge suitui hoi koung a hluk.
So Solomon overlaid the house within with pure gold: and he made a partition by the chains of gold before the oracle; and he overlaid it with gold.
22 Bawkim teh abuemlahoi suitui hoi a hluk teh hmuen kathoung teng e khoungroe hai satui hoi a hluk.
And the whole house he overlaid with gold, until he had finished all the house: also the whole altar that [was] by the oracle he overlaid with gold.
23 Hmuen kathoung koevah dong 10 reira ka rasang e Cherubim kahni touh olive thing hoi a sak.
And within the oracle he made two cherubims [of] olive tree, [each] ten cubits high.
24 Cherubim rathei avanglae dong 5 touh a pha teh, avanglae hai dong 5 touh a pha. A rathei hmo buet touh hoi buet touh rahak vah dong 10 touh a pha.
And five cubits [was] the one wing of the cherub, and five cubits the other wing of the cherub: from the uttermost part of the one wing unto the uttermost part of the other [were] ten cubits.
25 Cherubim buet touh dawk dong 10 touh a rasang. Cherubim buet touh e hai hottelah doeh.
And the other cherub [was] ten cubits: both the cherubims [were] of one measure and one size.
26 Hote cherubim teh im e athunglah a hruek awh teh, a ratheinaw teh a kadai.
The height of the one cherub [was] ten cubits, and so [was it] of the other cherub.
27 Buet touh e rathei ni tapang a kâbet teh cherubim buet touh e rathei ni hai avanglae tapang hah a kâbet. Hahoi alungui vah cherubim rathei kahni touh e hah a kâhmo roi.
And he set the cherubims within the inner house: and they stretched forth the wings of the cherubims, so that the wing of the one touched the [one] wall, and the wing of the other cherub touched the other wall; and their wings touched one another in the midst of the house.
28 Cherubim teh satui hoi a hluk.
And he overlaid the cherubims with gold.
29 Bawkim a thung lae tapang hoi alawilae tapang dawk thuk e cherubim mei hoi a pei ka pei e samtuekung mei naw hai ao.
And he carved all the walls of the house round about with carved figures of cherubims and palm trees and open flowers, within and without.
30 Hahoi, bawkim thung e carawng hoi alawilae carawng naw teh suitui hoi a hluk.
And the floor of the house he overlaid with gold, within and without.
31 Athung lae hmuen kathoung kâennae takhang teh, olive thing hoi a sak. Tho tâphai hoi tho tangkhang teh tapang pung panga touh dawk pung touh hoi a kâvan.
And for the entering of the oracle he made doors [of] olive tree: the lintel [and] side posts [were] a fifth part [of the wall].
32 Hottelah olive thing hoi tho kahni touh a sak teh, hawvah cherubim hoi apei ka pei e samtuekungnaw dawk hai suitui a hluk.
The two doors also [were of] olive tree; and he carved upon them carvings of cherubims and palm trees and open flowers, and overlaid [them] with gold, and spread gold upon the cherubims, and upon the palm trees.
33 Hot patetlah, hmuen kathoung thung kâennae tho takhangnaw hai olive thing hoi a tâphai, a tangkhang naw sak lah ao.
So also made he for the door of the temple posts [of] olive tree, a fourth part [of the wall].
34 Tho buet touh dawk tâbaw kahni touh hoi, kâhei thai e hmaicathing hoi tho kahni touh hai a sak.
And the two doors [were of] fir tree: the two leaves of the one door [were] folding, and the two leaves of the other door [were] folding.
35 Tho koevah, cherubim hoi a pei ka pei e samtuekung e mei naw a sak teh, a em suitui hoi kahawicalah a hluk.
And he carved [thereon] cherubims and palm trees and open flowers: and covered [them] with gold fitted upon the carved work.
36 Athung lae thongma hai bo e talung than thum touh hoi, Sidar thingphek dot touh hoi patuen patuen a sak sin.
And he built the inner court with three rows of hewed stone, and a row of cedar beams.
37 A kum 4, Ziv thapa nah BAWIPA e im teh adu a ung awh.
In the fourth year was the foundation of the house of the LORD laid, in the month Zif:
38 Hahoi, kum 12, Bul thapa, thapa yung taroe nah im teh a kâcai awh e patetlah hnonaw pueng he a cum awh teh, kum 7 touh a ro awh.
And in the eleventh year, in the month Bul, which [is] the eighth month, was the house finished throughout all the parts thereof, and according to all the fashion of it. So was he seven years in building it.
