1 Derpaa tog Salomo fat paa at bygge HERRENS Hus i Jerusalem paa Morija Bjerg, hvor HERREN havde ladet sig til Syne for hans Fader David, paa det Sted, David havde beredt, paa Jebusiten Ornans Tærskeplads.
So Salomon began to buyld the house of the Lord in Ierusalem, in mount Moriah which had bene declared vnto Dauid his father, in the place that Dauid prepared in the thresshing floore of Ornan the Iebusite.
2 Han tog fat paa Byggearbejdet i den anden Maaned i sit fjerde Regeringsaar.
And he beganne to buylde in the seconde moneth and the second day, in the fourth yeere of his reigne.
3 Maalene paa Grunden, som Salomo lagde ved Opførelsen af Guds Hus, var følgende: Længden var tresindstyve Alen efter gammelt Maal, Bredden tyve.
And these are the measures, whereon Salomon grounded to buylde the house of God: the length of cubites after the first measure was threescore cubites, and the breadth twenty cubites:
4 Forhallen foran Templets Hellige var tyve Alen lang, svarende til Templets Bredde, og tyve Alen høj; og han overtrak den indvendig med purt Guld.
And the porch, that was before the length in the front of the breadth was twentie cubits, and the height was an hundreth and twentie, and he ouerlayd it within with pure golde.
5 Den store Hal dækkede han med Cyprestræ og overtrak den desuden med ægte Guld og prydede den med Palmer og Kranse.
And the greater house he sieled with firre tree which he ouerlayd with good golde, and graued thereon palme trees and chaines.
6 Han smykkede Hallen med Ædelsten; og Guldet var Parvajimguld;
And hee ouerlayde the house with precious stone for beautie: and the golde was gold of Paruaim.
7 han overtrak Templet, Bjælkerne, Dørtærsklerne, Væggene og Dørfløjene med Guld og lod indgravere Keruber paa Væggene.
The house, I say, the beames, postes, and walles thereof and the doores thereof ouerlayde he with gold, and graued Cherubims vpon the walles.
8 Han byggede fremdeles det Allerhelligste; dets Længde paa tværs af Templet var tyve Alen, dets Bredde tyve; og han overtrak det med ægte Guld til en Vægt af 600 Talenter.
He made also the house of the most holy place: the length thereof was in the front of the breadth of the house, twenty cubits, and the breadth thereof twentie cubites: and he ouerlayde it with the best golde, of sixe hundreth talents.
9 Naglerne havde en Vægt af halvtredsindstyve Guldsekel; og Rummene paa Taget overtrak han med Guld.
And the weight of the nayles was fiftie shekels of golde, and hee ouerlayde the chambers with golde.
10 I det Allerhelligste satte han to Keruber i Billedskærerarbejde, og han overtrak dem med Guld.
And in the house of the most holy place he made two Cherubims wrought like children, and ouerlayd them with golde.
11 Kerubernes Vinger maalte tilsammen tyve Alen i Længden; den enes ene Vinge, fem Alen lang, rørte Hallens ene Væg, medens den anden, fem Alen lang, rørte den andens Vinge;
And the winges of the Cherubims were twentie cubites long: the one wing was fiue cubites, reaching to the wall of the house, and the other wing fiue cubites, reaching to the wing of the other Cherub.
12 og den anden Kerubs ene Vinge, fem Alen lang, rørte Hallens modsatte Væg, medens den anden, fem Alen lang, naaede til den første Kerubs Vinge.
Likewise the wing of ye other Cherub was fiue cubites, reaching to the wall of the house, and the other wing fiue cubites ioyning to the wing of the other Cherub.
13 Disse Kerubers Vinger maalte i deres fulde Udstrækning tyve Alen og de stod oprejst med Ansigtet indad.
The wings of these Cherubims were spread abroade twentie cubites: they stoode on their feete, and their faces were toward the house.
14 Tillige lavede han Forhænget af violet og rødt Purpur, karmoisinfarvet Stof og fint Linned og prydede det med Keruber.
He made also the vaile of blew silke and purple, and crimosin, and fine linen, and wrought Cherubims thereon.
15 Foran Templet lavede han to Søjler. De var fem og tredive Alen høje, og Søjlehovedet oven paa dem var fem Alen.
And he made before the house two pillars of fiue and thirtie cubites hie: and the chapiter that was vpon the top of eche of them, was fiue cubites.
16 Saa lavede han Kranse som en Halskæde og anbragte dem øverst paa Søjlerne, og fremdeles lavede han 100 Granatæbler og satte dem paa Kransene.
He made also chaines for the oracle, and put them on the heads of the pillars, and made an hundreth pomegranates, and put them among the chaines.
17 Disse Søjler rejste han foran Helligdommen, en til højre og en til venstre: den højre kaldte han Jakin, den venstre Boaz.
And he set vp the pillars before the Temple, one on the right hande and the other on the left, and called that on the right hand Iachin, and that on the left hand Boaz.
