歷代志下 3
1 [興工建殿]撒羅滿在耶路撒冷，即在他父親達味看見異像的摩黎雅山上，在耶步斯人敖爾難的禾場上，達味所準備的地方，興工建造上主的聖殿。
And Solomon began to build the house of the Lord in Jerusalem, in mount Moria, which had been shewn to David his father, in the place which David had prepared in the thrashingfloor of Ornan the Jebusite.
2 撒羅滿在即位後第四年二月興工建造。
And he began to build in the second month, in the fourth year of his reign.
3 撒羅滿為建造天主聖殿的基地，按照古尺度計算：長六十肘，寬爾十肘。
Now these are the foundations, which Solomon laid, to build the house of God, the length by the first measure sixty cubits, the breadth twenty cubits.
4 門廊的長度與聖殿的寬度相等，即二十肘，高二十肘，裏面全貼上純金。
And the porch in the front, which was extended in length according to the measure of the breadth of the house, twenty cubits: and the height was a hundred and twenty cubits: and he overlaid it within with pure gold.
5 大殿裏面先蓋上一層木板，再貼上純金，上面雕刻上棕樹和花環；
And the greater house he ceiled with deal boards, and overlaid them with plates of fine gold throughout: and he graved in them palm trees, and like little chains interlaced with one another.
6 又以寶石點綴聖殿，甚是華麗；金子都是帕爾瓦因金。
He paved also the floor of the temple with most precious marble, of great beauty.
7 正殿、棟樑、門限、牆壁，以及門扇，都貼上金子，牆上刻有革魯賓。[至聖所]
And the gold of the plates with which he overlaid the house, and the beams thereof, and the posts, and the walls, and the doors was of the finest: and he graved cherubims on the walls.
8 以後，建造了至聖所，長度與聖殿的寬度相等，即二十肘，寬度也是二十肘；內部貼了六百「塔冷通」純金。
He made also the house of the holy of holies: the length of it according to the breadth of the temple, twenty cubits, and the breadth of it in like manner twenty cubits: and he overlaid it with plates of gold, amounting to about six hundred talents.
9 釘子重五十「協刻耳」金子；連樓閣也貼上了金子。
He made also nails of gold, and the weight of every nail was fifty sicles: the upper chambers also he overlaid with gold.
10 在至聖所內，以刻工刻了兩個革魯賓，外面包上了黃金；
He made also in the house of the holy of holies two cherubims of image work: and he overlaid them with gold.
11 革魯賓的翅膀，共長二十肘：這邊革魯賓的一個翅膀長五肘，伸至這邊殿牆；另一個翅膀也長五肘，與另一個革魯賓的翅膀相接連。
The wings of the cherubims were extended twenty cubits, so that one wing was five cubits long, and reached to the wall of the house: and the other was also five cubits long, and reached to the wing of the other cherub.
12 這一個革魯賓的一個翅膀，也長五肘，伸至那邊殿牆；另一個翅膀也長五肘，與前一個革魯賓的翅膀相接連。
In like manner the wing of the other cherub, was five cubits long, and reached to the wall: and his other wing was five cubits long, and touched the wing of the other cherub.
13 兩個革魯賓的翅膀都伸開，共長二十肘；他們雙足站立，面向聖殿。
So the wings of the two cherubims were spread forth, and were extended twenty cubits: and they stood upright on their feet, and their faces were turned toward the house without.
14 又用藍線、紫線、朱紅線和細麻，作了一帳幔，上面繡上革魯賓。[圓柱]
He made also a veil of violet, purple, scarlet, and silk: and wrought in it cherubims.
15 他又在殿前造了兩根柱子，共長三十肘；每根柱子頂上有柱帽，高五肘。
He made also before the doors of the temple two pillars, which were five and thirty cubits high: and their chapiters were five cubits.
16 又做了類似項鍊的花環，置於柱頭上；又作了一百個石榴，懸在花環上。
He made also as it were little chains in the oracle, and he put them on the heads of the pillars: and a hundred pomegranates, which he put between the little chains.
17 把兩根柱子立在殿前，一左一右：右邊的叫雅津，左邊的叫波阿次。
These pillars he put at the entrance of the temple, one on the right hand, and the other on the left: that which was on the right hand, he called Jachin: and that on the left hand, Boot.
