Anden Krønikebog 3
1 Og Salomo begyndte at bygge Herrens Hus i Jerusalem paa Moria Bjerg, hvor han havde aabenbaret sig for David, hans Fader, paa det Sted, jsom David havde beredt paa Ornans, Jebusitens, Tærskeplads.
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 Og han begyndte at bygge i den anden Maaned paa den anden Dag, i sin Regerings fjerde Aar.
And he began to build in the second month, in the fourth year of his reign.
3 Og saaledes lagde Salomo Grundvolden til Bygningen af Guds Hus: Længden i Alen efter gammelt Maal Tar tresindstyve Alen og Bredden tyve Alen.
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 Og Forhallen, som var foran, var efter Bredden paa Huset tyve Alen lang, men Højden var hundrede og tyve Alen; og han beslog den indentil med purt Guld.
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 Men det store Hus beklædte han med Fyrretræ og beslog det med fint Guld, og gjorde derpaa Palmer og Kæder.
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 Og han besatte Huset med kostbare Stene til Prydelse, og Guldet var af Parvajims Guld.
He paved also the floor of the temple with most precious marble, of great beauty.
7 Og han beslog Huset, Bjælkerne, Dørtærsklerne og dets Vægge og dets Døre med Guld og lod udgrave Keruber paa Væggene.
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 Han byggede ogsaa det Allerhelligstes Hus: Dets Længde var tyve Alen efter Husets Bredde, og dets Bredde var tyve Alen; og han beslog det med henved seks Hundrede Centner fint Guld.
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 Og Vægten paa Søm var halvtredsindstyve Sekel Guld; og han beslog Salene med Guld.
He made also nails of gold, and the weight of every nail was fifty sicles: the upper chambers also he overlaid with gold.
10 Han gjorde og i det Allerhelligstes Hus to Keruber med Billedskærerarbejde; og man beslog dem med Guld.
He made also in the house of the holy of holies two cherubims of image work: and he overlaid them with gold.
11 Og Længden af Vingerne paa Keruberne var tyve Alen; den ene Vinge var fem Alen og rørte ved Husets Væg, og den anden Vinge var og fem Alen og rørte ved den anden Kerubs Vinge.
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 Og den anden Kerubs Vinge var fem Alen lang og rørte ved Husets Væg, og den anden Vinge var fem Alen og naaede til den anden Kerubs Vinge.
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 Disse Keruber bredte Vingerne tyve Alen ud og stode paa deres Fødder, og deres Ansigter vare vendte imod Huset.
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 Han gjorde og Forhænget af blaat uldent og Purpur og Skarlagen og kosteligt Linklæde og gjorde Keruber derpaa.
He made also a veil of violet, purple, scarlet, and silk: and wrought in it cherubims.
15 Han gjorde og foran Huset to Støtter, hvis Længde var fem og tredive Alen, og Knappen, som var oven paa den, var fem Alen.
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 Og han gjorde Kæder som i Koret og satte dem oven paa Støtterne og gjorde hundrede Granatæbler og satte dem paa Kæderne.
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 Og han oprejste Støtterne foran Templet, een til den højre Side og een til venstre Side; og han kaldte Navnet paa den til højre Jakin og Navnet paa den til venstre Boas.
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.
