列王紀上 7
1 [建造宮室]此後，撒羅滿為自己建造宮室，十三年方纔完成。
Solomon was building his own house thirteen years, and he finished all his house.
2 他建造的，有黎巴嫩林宮，長一百肘，寬五十肘，高三十肘；有三行香柏木柱子，柱子上端有香柏木托梁。
For he built the house of the forest of Lebanon; its length was one hundred seventy-two feet and three inches, and its breadth eighty-six feet and two inches, and its height fifty-one feet and eight inches, on four rows of cedar pillars, with cedar beams on the pillars.
3 上面蓋上香柏木板；每行十五根柱子，共有四十五根。
It was covered with cedar above atop the beams which were on the pillars, and the pillars numbered forty-five; fifteen in a row.
4 窗戶有三排，三排窗戶彼此相對。
There were beams in three rows, and window was over against window in three ranks.
5 門和窗戶都是方形；三層窗戶都彼此相對。
All the doors and posts were made square with beams: and window was over against window in three ranks.
6 又造了有圓柱的大廳，長五十肘，寬三十肘；大廳前面另有一個廊子，廊子前面有柱子和頂蓋。
He made the porch of pillars; its length was eighty-six feet and two inches, and its breadth fifty-one feet and eight inches; and a porch before them; and pillars and a threshold before them.
7 他又造了一廳，中間設有審判的座位，在那裏審案；從地面到梁，都是用香柏木舖蓋的。
He made the porch of the throne where he was to judge, even the porch of judgment: and it was covered with cedar from floor to rafters.
8 廳後的另一院內，有君王住的宮室，建築式樣，完全與審判廳相同；為君王所娶的法郎公主，也建造了與審判廳相同的宮室。
His house where he was to dwell, the other court within the porch, was of the like work. He made also a house for Pharaoh's daughter (whom Solomon had taken as wife), like this porch.
9 從外院直到大院的這一切建築，從地基到屋頂，都是用按尺寸鑿好，用鋸內外鋸平的寶貴石頭建造的。
All these were of costly stones, even of cut stone, according to measure, sawed with saws, inside and outside, even from the foundation to the coping, and so on the outside to the great court.
10 地基也都是用貴重巨大的石頭砌成的，有的十肘長，有的八肘長；
The foundation was of costly stones, even great stones, stones of seventeen feet and three inches, and stones of thirteen feet and nine inches.
11 上面有按尺寸鑿好的貴重石頭和香柏木。
Above were costly stones, even cut stone, according to measure, and cedar wood.
12 大院四周的牆有三層鑿好的石頭和一層香柏木板；上主的殿宇的內院和殿廊，都包圍在內。兩根銅柱
The great court around had three courses of cut stone, and a course of cedar beams; like as the inner court of the house of YHWH, and the porch of the house.
13 撒羅滿王派人由提洛將希蘭接來。
King Solomon sent and fetched Hiram out of Tyre.
14 希蘭是納斐塔里支派一個寡婦的兒子，他父親是提洛的一個銅匠；他多才多藝，會做一切銅工。他來到撒羅滿前，為他做一切工作，
He was the son of a widow of the tribe of Naphtali, and his father was a man of Tyre, a worker in bronze; and he was filled with wisdom and understanding and skill, to work all works in bronze. He came to king Solomon, and performed all his work.
15 鑄了兩根銅柱：一根高十八肘，周徑十二肘，四指厚，中空；另一根也是這樣。
For he cast the two pillars of bronze, thirty-one feet was the height of one pillar; and a line of twenty feet and eight inches could encompass the one pillar, and its thickness hollowed out was almost three inches; and so was the second pillar.
16 製了兩個銅鑄的智頭，安在柱子頂端：一個柱頭五肘，另一個柱頭也高五肘。
He made two capitals of molten bronze, to set on the tops of the pillars: the height of the one capital was eight feet and seven inches, and the height of the other capital was eight feet and seven inches.
17 他又製了兩個銅網，為遮護柱子頂端的柱頭：這一個柱頭有一個銅網，另一個柱頭也有一個銅網。
There were nets of checker work, and wreaths of chain work, for the capitals which were on the top of the pillars; seven for the one capital, and seven for the other capital.
18 在網子周圍，又製了兩行石榴，遮住柱頭：兩個柱頭都是如此。
So he made the pomegranates, two rows around on the one network, to cover the capitals that were on the top of the pillars; and he did so for the other capital.
19 柱子頂端上的柱頭，刻有百合花形像，四肘高。
The capitals that were on the top of the pillars in the porch were of lily work, six feet and eleven inches.
20 兩根柱子頂端上的柱頭突起處，網子後面，各有石榴二百個，分行圍繞著。
And the capitals were on the two pillars, even above and close to the rounded projection which was beside the network. And there were two hundred pomegranates in rows all around on the capital, and the same around the other capital.
21 他將兩根柱子豎立在殿廊的前面：給立在右邊的柱子，起名叫雅津；給立在左邊的柱子，起名叫波阿次：
He set up the pillars at the porch of the temple: and he set up the right pillar, and called its name Jakin; and he set up the left pillar, and called its name Boaz.
22 這樣，柱子的工作就算完成了。銅海
On the top of the pillars was lily work: so was the work of the pillars finished.
23 他又鑄造了一座銅海，圓形，直徑十肘，高五肘，周徑三十肘。
He made the molten sea of seventeen feet and three inches from brim to brim, round in compass, and its height was eight feet and seven inches; and a line of fifty-one feet and eight inches encircled it.
24 銅海邊緣下面周圍有匏瓜，每肘十個，四面圍繞著銅海；匏瓜分成兩行，是鑄銅海時鑄上去的。
Under its brim around there were buds which encircled it, for seventeen feet and three inches, encircling the sea: the buds were in two rows, cast when it was cast.
25 銅海安放在十二隻銅牛上；三隻向北，三隻向西，三隻向南，三隻向東。銅海安放在牛背上，牛尾朝裏。
It stood on twelve oxen, three looking toward the north, and three looking toward the west, and three looking toward the south, and three looking toward the east; and the sea was set on them above, and all their backs were toward the center.
26 銅海厚一掌，邊像杯邊，形似百合花，可容兩千「巴特。」盆與盆座
It was almost three inches thick: and its brim was worked like the brim of a cup, like the flower of a lily: it held two thousand baths.
27 又鑄造了十個銅盆座，每個長四肘，寬四肘，高三肘。
He made the ten bases of bronze; six feet and eleven inches was the length of one base, and six feet and eleven inches its breadth, and five feet and two inches its height.
28 盆座的造法是這樣：盆座有鑲板，鑲板裝入框架內，
The work of the bases was like this: they had panels; and there were panels between the ledges;
29 在框架中間的鑲板上刻有獅子、牛和革魯賓的形像，在框架上也有雕刻；獅子和牛的形像下，刻有花紋浮雕。
and on the panels that were between the ledges were lions, oxen, and cherubim; and on the ledges there was a pedestal above; and beneath the lions and oxen were wreaths of hanging work.
30 每個盆座有四個銅輪和銅軸；盆底有四腳作支柱，支柱是鑄成的；每邊都刻有花紋。
Every base had four bronze wheels, and axles of bronze; and the four feet of it had supports: beneath the basin were the supports molten, with wreaths at the side of each.
31 盆座的口，從座底至口邊高一肘半；口成圓形，為安放銅盆之用；在口的邊緣上也有雕刻；盆座的鑲板是四方形的，而不是圓形的。
The mouth of it within the capital and above was twenty-one inches: and its mouth was round after the work of a pedestal, two feet and seven inches; and also on its mouth were engravings, and their panels were foursquare, not round.
32 四個輪子是在鑲板之下，輪軸與座底相接；輪子高一肘半。
The four wheels were underneath the panels; and the axles of the wheels were in the base: and the height of a wheel was two feet and seven inches.
33 輪子的製法和車輪的製法一樣，輪軸、輪輞、輪輻和輪轂，都是鑄成的。
The work of the wheels was like the work of a chariot wheel: their axles, and their rims, and their spokes, and their naves, were all molten.
34 每個盆座有四根支柱支持四角，支柱與盆座是一塊鑄成的。
There were four supports at the four corners of each base: its supports were of the base itself.
35 盆座頂上有一個圓架，高半肘；在座頂上有柄，鑲板與座是一塊鑄成的。
In the top of the base was there a round compass ten and a quarter inches high; and on the top of the base its stays and its panels were of the same.
36 鑲板壁上刻有革魯賓、獅子和棕樹；四周空處另刻有花紋。
On the plates of its stays, and on its panels, he engraved cherubim, lions, and palm trees, according to the space of each, with wreaths all around.
37 十個盆座都是這樣做的：鑄法、尺寸和式樣完全相同。
In this way, he made the ten bases: all of them had one casting, one measure, and one form.
38 又製了十個銅盆，每個銅盆可容四十「巴特；」每個銅盆高四肘；十個銅盆座上，每個安放一個銅盆。
He made ten basins of bronze: one basin contained forty baths; and every basin was six feet and eleven inches; and on every one of the ten bases one basin.
39 他把盆座，五個放在殿的右邊，五個放在殿的左邊；至於銅海，他放在殿右靠東南方。希蘭所製物品
He set the bases, five on the right side of the house, and five on the left side of the house: and he set the sea on the right side of the house eastward, toward the south.
40 希蘭又製造了鍋、鏟和盤：這樣，希蘭為撒羅滿作完了上主殿宇的一切工作：
Hiram made the pots, and the shovels, and the basins. So Hiram made an end of doing all the work that he worked for king Solomon in the house of YHWH:
41 計有柱子兩根，柱子頂端球形的柱頭兩個，遮護柱子頂端球形柱頭的網子兩個，
the two pillars, and the two bowls of the capitals that were on the top of the pillars; and the two networks to cover the two bowls of the capitals that were on the top of the pillars;
42 兩個網子上的石榴四百個，─每個網子上有兩行石榴，為遮護柱子頂端的兩個球形柱頭，
and the four hundred pomegranates for the two networks; two rows of pomegranates for each network, to cover the two bowls of the capitals that were on the pillars;
43 盆座十個，放在座上的盆子十個，
and the ten bases, and the ten basins on the bases;
44 銅海一個，銅海下的銅牛十二隻，
and one sea, and the twelve oxen under the sea;
45 鍋鏟和盤：以上一切器皿，都是希蘭給撒羅滿用光滑的銅，為上主的殿製造的，
and the pots, and the shovels, and the basins: even all these vessels, which Hiram made for king Solomon, in the house of YHWH, were of burnished bronze.
46 是他在約旦平原，穌苛特與匝爾堂之間，用膠泥模鑄成的。
The king cast them in the plain of the Jordan, in the clay ground between Succoth and Zarethan.
47 撒羅滿沒有秤量這一切器皿，因為銅太多，重量無法計算。
Solomon left all the vessels unweighed, because they were exceeding many: the weight of the bronze could not be found out.
48 以後撒羅滿又製造了上主殿內的一切用具：就是金祭壇，供餅的金桌，
Solomon made all the vessels that were in the house of YHWH: the golden altar, and the table whereupon the show bread was, of gold;
49 內殿前的燈臺，五個在右邊，五個在左邊，都是純金的；還有花蕊、燈盞、燭剪，也是金的。
and the lampstands, five on the right side, and five on the left, before the inner sanctuary, of pure gold; and the flowers, and the lamps, and the tongs, of gold;
50 又有盆、刀、碗、杯、火盤，都是純金的；還有內殿既至聖所，和正殿的門樞，都是金的。
and the cups, and the snuffers, and the basins, and the spoons, and the fire pans, of pure gold; and the hinges, both for the doors of the inner house, the most holy place, and for the doors of the house, of the temple, of gold.
51 撒羅滿就這樣完成了為上主的殿所作的一切工作。撒羅滿將他父親達味所奉獻的銀子、金子和器皿運了來，存放在上主殿宇的府庫內。
Thus all the work that Solomon performed in the house of YHWH was finished. Solomon brought in the things which David his father had dedicated, the silver, and the gold, and the vessels, and put them in the treasuries of the house of YHWH.
