Første Kongebog 7
1 Paa sit Palads byggede Salomo i tretten Aar; saa fik han hele sit Palads færdigt.
Solomon was building his own house thirteen years, and he finished all his house.
2 Han byggede Libanonskovhuset, hundrede Alen langt, halvtredsindstyve Alen bredt og tredive Alen højt, hvilende paa tre Rækker Cedersøjler med Skraastøtter af Cedertræ.
For he built the House of the Forest of Lebanon. Its length was one hundred cubits, its width fifty cubits, and its height thirty cubits, on four rows of cedar pillars, with cedar beams on the pillars.
3 Det var oven over Rummene tækket med Cederbjælker, der hvilede paa fem og fyrretyve Søjler, femten i hver Række.
It was covered with cedar above over the forty-five beams that were on the pillars, fifteen in a row.
4 Der var tre Lag Bjælker, og Lysaabning sad over for Lysaabning tre Gange.
There were beams in three rows, and window was facing window in three ranks.
5 Alle Døre og Lysaabninger havde firkantede Bjælkerammer, og Lysaabning sad over for Lysaabning tre Gange.
All the doors and posts were made square with beams; and window was facing window in three ranks.
6 Fremdeles opførte han Søjlehallen, halvtredsindstyve Alen lang og tredive Alen bred, med en Hal, Søjler og Trappe foran.
He made the hall of pillars. Its length was fifty cubits and its width thirty cubits, with a porch before them, and pillars and a threshold before them.
7 Fremdeles opførte han Tronhallen, hvor han holdt Rettergang, Domhallen; den var dækket med Cedertræ fra Gulv til Loft,
He made the porch of the throne where he was to judge, even the porch of judgement; and it was covered with cedar from floor to floor.
8 Hans eget Hus, det, han boede i, i den anden Forgaard inden for Hallen, var bygget paa samme Maade. Og til Faraos Datter, som Salomo havde ægtet, opførte han et Hus i Lighed med denne Hal.
His house where he was to dwell, the other court within the porch, was of the same construction. He made also a house for Pharaoh’s daughter (whom Solomon had taken as wife), like this porch.
9 Det hele var af kostbare Sten, tilhugget efter Maal, tilsavet baade indvendig og udvendig, lige fra Grunden til Murkanten, hvilket ogsaa gjaldt den store Forgaard uden om Templets Forgaard.
All these were of costly stones, even of stone cut 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 Grunden blev lagt med kostbare, store Sten, nogle paa ti, andre paa otte Alen.
The foundation was of costly stones, even great stones, stones of ten cubits and stones of eight cubits.
11 Ovenpaa lagdes kostbare Sten, tilhugget efter Maal, og Cederbjælker.
Above were costly stones, even cut stone, according to measure, and cedar wood.
12 Den store Forgaard var hele Vejen rundt omgivet af tre Lag tilhugne Sten og et Lag Cederbjælker, ligeledes HERRENS Hus's Forgaard, den indre, og Forgaarden om Paladsets Forhal.
The great court around had three courses of cut stone with a course of cedar beams, like the inner court of the LORD’s house and the porch of the house.
13 Kong Salomo sendte Bud til Tyrus efter Hiram.
King Solomon sent and brought Hiram out of Tyre.
14 Han var Søn af en Enke fra Naftalis Stamme, men hans Fader var en Kobbersmed fra Tyrus. Han sad inde med Visdom, Forstand og Indsigt i at udføre alskens Kobberarbejde; og han kom til Kong Salomo og udførte alt det Arbejde, han skulde have udført.
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 Han støbte de to Kobbersøjler foran Forhallen. Den ene var atten Alen høj; den maalte tolv Alen i Omkreds; den var hul, og Kobberet var fire Fingerbredder tykt. Ligesaa den anden Søjle.
For he fashioned the two pillars of bronze, eighteen cubits high apiece; and a line of twelve cubits encircled either of them.
16 Og han lavede to Søjlehoveder til at sidde oven paa Søjlerne, støbt af Kobber, hvert Søjlehoved fem Alen højt.
He made two capitals of molten bronze to set on the tops of the pillars. The height of the one capital was five cubits, and the height of the other capital was five cubits.
17 Og han lavede to Fletværker, flettet Arbejde, Snore, kædeformet Arbejde, til at dække Søjlehovederne oven paa Søjlerne, et Fletværk til hvert Søjlehoved;
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 og han lavede Granatæblerne, to Rækker rundt om det ene Fletværk; der var 200 Granatæbler i Rækker rundt om det ene Søjlehoved; paa samme Maade gjorde han ogsaa ved det andet.
So he made the pillars; and there were two rows of pomegranates around the one network, to cover the capitals that were on the top of the pillars; and he did so for the other capital.
19 Søjlehovederne paa de to Søjler var liljeformet Arbejde.
The capitals that were on the top of the pillars in the porch were of lily work, four cubits.
20 Søjlehovederne sad paa de to Søjler ... .
There were capitals above also on the two pillars, close by the belly which was beside the network. There were two hundred pomegranates in rows around the other capital.
21 Derpaa opstillede han Søjlerne ved Templets Forhal; den Søjle, han opstillede til højre, kaldte han Jakin, og den, han opstillede til venstre, kaldte han Boaz.
He set up the pillars at the porch of the temple. He set up the right pillar and called its name Jachin; and he set up the left pillar and called its name Boaz.
22 Øverst paa Søjlerne var der liljeformet Arbejde. Saaledes blev Arbejdet med Søjlerne færdigt.
On the tops of the pillars was lily work. So the work of the pillars was finished.
23 Fremdeles lavede han Havet i støbt Arbejde, ti Alen fra Rand til Rand, helt rundt, fem Alen højt; det maalte tredive Alen i Omkreds.
He made the molten sea ten cubits from brim to brim, round in shape. Its height was five cubits; and a line of thirty cubits encircled it.
24 Under Randen var det hele Vejen rundt omgivet af agurklignende Prydelser, der naaede helt omkring Havet, tredive Alen; i to Rækker sad de agurklignende Prydelser, støbt i eet dermed.
Under its brim around there were buds which encircled it for ten cubits, encircling the sea. The buds were in two rows, cast when it was cast.
25 Det stod paa tolv Okser, saaledes at tre vendte mod Nord, tre mod Vest, tre mod Syd og tre mod Øst; Havet stod oven paa dem; de vendte alle Bagkroppen indad.
It stood on twelve oxen, three looking towards the north, and three looking towards the west, and three looking towards the south, and three looking towards the east; and the sea was set on them above, and all their hindquarters were inward.
26 Det var en Haandsbred tykt, og Randen var formet som Randen paa et Bæger, som en udsprungen Lilje. Det tog 2000 Bat.
It was a hand width thick. Its brim was worked like the brim of a cup, like the flower of a lily. It held two thousand baths.
27 Fremdeles lavede han de ti Vognstel af Kobber; hvert Stel var fire Alen langt, fire Alen bredt og tre Alen højt.
He made the ten bases of bronze. The length of one base was four cubits, four cubits its width, and three cubits its height.
28 Og Stellene var indrettet saa ledes: De havde Mellemstykker, og Mellemstykkerne sad mellem Rammestykkerne.
The work of the bases was like this: they had panels; and there were panels between the ledges;
29 Paa Mellemstykkerne mellem Rammestykkerne var der Løver, Okser og Keruber, ligeledes paa Rammestykkerne. Over og under Løverne og Okserne var der Kranse, lavet saaledes, at de hang ned.
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 Hvert Stel havde fire Kobberhjul og Kobberaksler. De fire Hjørner havde Bærearme; under Bækkenet var Bærearmene faststøbt, og midt for hver af dem var der Kranse.
Every base had four bronze wheels and axles of bronze; and its four feet had supports. The supports were cast beneath the basin, with wreaths at the side of each.
31 Dets Rand var inden for Bærearmene, een Alen høj, og den var rund: ogsaa paa Randen var der udskaaret Arbejde. Mellemstykkerne var firkantede, ikke runde.
Its opening within the capital and above was a cubit. Its opening was round like the work of a pedestal, a cubit and a half; and also on its opening were engravings, and their panels were square, not round.
32 De fire Hjul sad under Mellemstykkerne, og Hjulenes Akselholdere sad paa Stellet; hvert Hjul var halvanden Alen højt.
The four wheels were underneath the panels; and the axles of the wheels were in the base. The height of a wheel was a cubit and half a cubit.
33 Hjulene var indrettet som Vognhjul, og deres Akselholdere, Fælge, Eger og Nav var alle støbt.
The work of the wheels was like the work of a chariot wheel. Their axles, their rims, their spokes, and their hubs were all of cast metal.
34 Der var en Bærearm paa hvert Stels fire Hjørner, og Bærearmene var i eet med Stellet;
There were four supports at the four corners of each base. Its supports were of the base itself.
35 og oven paa Stellet var der en Slags Fatning, en halv Alen høj og helt rund; og Akselholdere og Mellemstykker sad fast paa Stellet.
In the top of the base there was a round band half a cubit high; and on the top of the base its supports and its panels were the same.
36 Paa Fladerne indgraverede han Keruber, Løver og Palmer, efter som der var Plads til, omgivet af Kranse.
On the plates of its supports and on its panels, he engraved cherubim, lions, and palm trees, each in its space, with wreaths all around.
37 Saaledes lavede han de ti Stel; de var alle støbt paa samme Maade, med samme Maal og af samme Form.
He made the ten bases in this way: all of them had one casting, one measure, and one form.
38 Tillige lavede han ti Kobberbækkener; fyrretyve Bat tog hvert Bækken, og hvert Bækken maalte fire Alen, et Bækken til hvert af de ti Stel.
He made ten basins of bronze. One basin contained forty baths. Every basin measured four cubits. One basin was on every one of the ten bases.
39 Og han satte fem af Stellene ved Templets Sydside, fem ved Nordsiden; og Havet opstillede han ved Templets Sydside, ved det sydøstre Hjørne.
He set the bases, five on the right side of the house and five on the left side of the house. He set the sea on the right side of the house eastward and towards the south.
40 Fremdeles lavede Hirom Karrene, Skovlene og Skaalene. Der med var Hiram færdig med alt sit Arbejde for Kong Salomo til HERRENS Hus:
Hiram made the pots, the shovels, and the basins. So Hiram finished doing all the work that he worked for King Solomon in the LORD’s house:
41 De to Søjler, og de to kugleformede Søjlehoveder ovenpaa, de to Fletværker til at dække de to kugleformede Søjlehoveder paa Søjlerne,
the two pillars; the two bowls of the capitals that were on the top of the pillars; the two networks to cover the two bowls of the capitals that were on the top of the pillars;
42 de 400 Granatæbler til de to Fletværker, to Rækker Granatæbler til hvert Fletværk til at dække de to kugleformede Søjlehoveder paa de to Søjler,
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 de ti Stel med de ti Bækkener paa,
the ten bases; the ten basins on the bases;
44 Havet med de tolv Okser under,
the one sea; the twelve oxen under the sea;
45 Karrene, Skovlene og Skaalene. Alle disse Ting, som Hiram lavede for Kong Salomo til HERRENS Hus, var af blankt Kobber.
the pots; the shovels; and the basins. All of these vessels, which Hiram made for King Solomon in the LORD’s house, were of burnished bronze.
46 I Jordanegnen lod Kongen dem støbe, ved Adamas Vadested mellem Sukkot og Zaretan.
The king cast them in the plain of the Jordan, in the clay ground between Succoth and Zarethan.
47 Salomo lod alle Tingene uvejet paa Grund af deres saare store Mængde, Kobberet blev ikke vejet.
Solomon left all the vessels unweighed, because there were so many of them. The weight of the bronze could not be determined.
48 Og Salomo lod alle Tingene, som hørte til HERRENS Hus, lave: Guldalteret, Guldbordet, som Skuebrødene laa paa,
Solomon made all the vessels that were in the LORD’s house: the golden altar and the table that the show bread was on, of gold;
49 Lysestagerne, fem til højre og fem til venstre, foran Inderhallen, af purt Guld, med Blomsterbægrene, Lamperne og Lysesaksene af Guld,
and the lamp stands, five on the right side and five on the left, in front of the inner sanctuary, of pure gold; and the flowers, the lamps, and the tongs, of gold;
50 Fadene, Knivene, Skaalene, Kanderne og Panderne af fint Guld, Hængslerne til Dørene for den inderste Hal, det Allerhelligste, og til Dørene for den yderste Hal, det Hellige, af Guld.
the cups, the snuffers, the basins, 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 Da hele Arbejdet, som Salomo lod udføre ved HERRENS Hus, var færdigt, bragte Salomo sin Fader Davids Helliggaver, Sølvet og Guldet, derind og lagde alle Tingene i Skatkamrene i HERRENS Hus.
Thus all the work that King Solomon did in the LORD’s house was finished. Solomon brought in the things which David his father had dedicated—the silver, the gold, and the vessels—and put them in the treasuries of the LORD’s house.
