Anden Krønikebog 4
1 Han gjorde og et Kobberalter; tyve Alen var dets Længde og tyve Alen dets Bredde og ti Alen dets Højde.
Also, he made a brass altar of twenty cubits in length, and of twenty cubits in width, and of ten cubits in height,
2 Tilmed gjorde han et støbt Hav; det var ti Alen fra den ene Rand til den anden Rand; det var rundt trindt omkring, og fem Alen var dets Højde, og en Snor, tredive Alen lang, gik om det trindt omkring.
as well as a molten sea of ten cubits from brim to brim, round in its circumference. It had five cubits in height, and a line of thirty cubits went around it on all sides.
3 Og under det var trindt omkring Billeder af Okser, som omgave det, ti paa en Alen, og de omringede Havet trindt omkring; i to Rader vare Okserne, støbte i een Støbning med det selv.
Also, under it there was the likeness of oxen. And certain engravings encircled the cavity of the sea, along ten cubits of the outside, as if in two rows. Now the oxen were molten.
4 Det stod paa tolv Okser, tre vare vendte imod Norden, og tre vare vendte imod Vesten, og tre vare vendte imod Sønden, og tre vare vendte imod Østen, og Havet stod oven paa dem; og deres Bagdele vare alle vendte indad.
And the sea itself was placed upon the twelve oxen, three of which were looking toward the north, and another three toward the west, then another three toward the south, and the three that remained toward the east, having the sea imposed upon them. But the posteriors of the oxen were toward the interior, under the sea.
5 Og Tykkelsen derpaa var en Haandbred, og Randen derpaa var gjort som Randen paa et Bæger, ligesom et Lillieblomster; det holdt Bath, tre Tusinde rummede det.
Now its thickness had the measure of the palm of a hand, and its brim was like the lip of a cup, or like the outturned petal of a lily. And it held three thousand measures.
6 Og han gjorde ti Kedler og satte fem paa den højre Side og fem paa den venstre Side til at to sig i dem; Brændofferet, som tillavedes, afskyllede de i dem; men Havet var for Præsterne til at to sig i.
Also, he made ten basins. And he placed five on the right, and five on the left, so that they might wash in them all the things that they were to offer as holocausts. But the priests were to be washed in the sea.
7 Og han gjorde ti Lysestager af Guld efter deres Bestemmelse; og han satte dem i Templet, fem paa den højre Side og fem paa den venstre Side.
Then he also made ten gold lampstands, according to the form by which they had been ordered to be made. And he set them in the temple, five on the right, and five on the left.
8 Og han gjorde ti Borde og satte dem i Templet, fem paa den højre og fem paa den venstre Side; og han gjorde hundrede Skaaler af Guld.
Moreover, there were also ten tables. And he placed them in the temple, five on the right, and five on the left. Also, there were one hundred gold bowls.
9 Han gjorde og en Forgaard for Præsterne og en stor Gaard og Døre paa Gaarden og beslog dens Fløje med Kobber.
Then too, he made the court of the priests, and a great hall, and doors in the hall, which he covered with brass.
10 Og han satte Havet ved det højre Hjørne imod Sydøst.
Now he placed the sea on the right side, facing the east, toward the south.
11 Tilmed gjorde Huram Gryder og Ildskuffer og Skaaler. Saa blev Huram færdig med at gøre Gerningen, som han udførte for Kong Salomo ved Guds Hus:
Then Hiram made cooking pots and hooks and bowls. And he completed every work of the king in the house of God,
12 De to Støtter med runde Kroner oven paa de to Støtter, og tvende Net til at dække begge de runde Kroner, som vare oven paa Støtterne,
that is, the two pillars, and the crossbeams, and the heads, and something like a little net, which would cover the heads above the crossbeams,
13 og de fire Hundrede Granatæbler til de to Net, to Rader Granatæbler til ethvert Net for at dække de tvende runde Kroner, som vare oven over Støtterne.
and also four hundred pomegranates, and two little nets, so that two rows of pomegranates were joined to each net, which would cover the crossbeams and the heads of the pillars.
14 Og han gjorde Stolene og gjorde Kedlerne paa Stolene;
He also made bases; and basins that he placed upon the bases;
15 det ene Hav og de tolv Okser derunder;
one sea, and twelve oxen under the sea;
16 ogsaa Gryderne og Ildskufferne og Madkrogene og samtlige Redskaber dertil gjorde Huram-Abi for Kong Salomo til Herrens Hus af poleret Kobber.
and cooking pots and hooks and bowls. Hiram, his father, made all the vessels for Solomon, in the house of the Lord, from the purest brass.
17 Paa Jordanens Slette lod Kongen dem støbe i den faste Jord, imellem Sukot og Zeredatha.
The king cast these in the region near the Jordan, in the clay soil between Succoth and Zeredah.
18 Og Salomo gjorde alle disse Redskaber i stor Mangfoldighed, saa at Kobberets Vægt ikke blev undersøgt.
Now the multitude of the vessels was innumerable, so much so that the weight of the brass was unknown.
19 Og Salomo lod gøre alle Redskaberne, som hørte til Guds Hus, og Guldalteret og Bordene til Skuebrødene
And Solomon made all the vessels for the house of God, and the gold altar, and the tables upon which were the bread of the presence;
20 og Lysestagerne med deres Lamper af fint Guld for at tænde dem, som Skik var, lige for Koret
and also, of the purest gold, the lampstands with their lamps, to shine before the oracle, according to the rite;
21 og Blomsterne og Lamperne og Lysesaksene af Guld, det var af det fineste Guld,
and certain flowers, and lamps, and gold tongs. All these were made from the purest gold.
22 og Knivene og Skaalerne og Røgelseskaalerne og Ildkarrene af fint Guld; og hvad Indgangen til Huset angaar, da vare dens inderste Døre til det Allerhelligste og Dørene til Templets Hus af Guld.
Also, the vessels for the perfumes, and the censers, and the bowls, and the little mortars were from the purest gold. And he engraved the doors of the inner temple, that is, for the Holy of Holies. And the doors of the outer temple were of gold. And so, every work was completed that Solomon made in the house of the Lord.
