< 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.
Then Solomon began to build the LORD’s house at Jerusalem on Mount Moriah, where the LORD appeared to David his father, which he prepared in the place that David had appointed, on the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
2 Og han begyndte at bygge i den anden Maaned paa den anden Dag, i sin Regerings fjerde Aar.
He began to build in the second day of 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 for the building of God’s house: the length by cubits after the first measure was sixty cubits, and the width 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.
The porch that was in front, its length, across the width of the house, was twenty cubits, and the height one hundred and twenty; 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.
He made the larger room with a ceiling of cypress wood, which he overlaid with fine gold, and ornamented it with palm trees and chains.
6 Og han besatte Huset med kostbare Stene til Prydelse, og Guldet var af Parvajims Guld.
He decorated the house with precious stones for beauty. The gold was gold from Parvaim.
7 Og han beslog Huset, Bjælkerne, Dørtærsklerne og dets Vægge og dets Døre med Guld og lod udgrave Keruber paa Væggene.
He also overlaid the house, the beams, the thresholds, its walls, and its doors with gold, and engraved cherubim 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 the most holy place. Its length, according to the width of the house, was twenty cubits, and its width twenty cubits; and he overlaid it with fine gold, amounting to six hundred talents.
9 Og Vægten paa Søm var halvtredsindstyve Sekel Guld; og han beslog Salene med Guld.
The weight of the nails was fifty shekels of gold. He overlaid the upper rooms with gold.
10 Han gjorde og i det Allerhelligstes Hus to Keruber med Billedskærerarbejde; og man beslog dem med Guld.
In the most holy place he made two cherubim by carving, and they 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 cherubim were twenty cubits long: the wing of the one was five cubits, reaching to the wall of the house; and the other wing was five cubits, reaching 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.
The wing of the other cherub was five cubits, reaching to the wall of the house; and the other wing was five cubits, joining to 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.
The wings of these cherubim spread themselves out twenty cubits. They stood on their feet, and their faces were towards the house.
14 Han gjorde og Forhænget af blaat uldent og Purpur og Skarlagen og kosteligt Linklæde og gjorde Keruber derpaa.
He made the veil of blue, purple, crimson, and fine linen, and ornamented it with cherubim.
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.
Also he made before the house two pillars thirty-five cubits high, and the capital that was on the top of each of them was 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 chains in the inner sanctuary, and put them on the tops of the pillars; and he made one hundred pomegranates, and put them on the 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.
He set up the pillars before the temple, one on the right hand and the other on the left; and called the name of that on the right hand Jachin, and the name of that on the left Boaz.
