Anden Krønikebog 3
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.
Then began Solomon, to build the house of Yahweh, in Jerusalem, in Mount Moriah, where he had appeared unto David his father, —in the place which David had prepared, in the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
2 Han tog fat paa Byggearbejdet i den anden Maaned i sit fjerde Regeringsaar.
And he began to build, in the second month, on the second, in the fourth year of his reign.
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 things wherein Solomon was grounded for the building of the house of God, —The length, by cubits, in the first measure, was sixty cubits, and, the breadth, twenty cubits.
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 which was in front of the length, in front of the breadth of the house, was twenty cubits, and, the height thereof, was a hundred and twenty, —and he overlaid it, within, with pure gold.
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, covered he with cypress wood, and overlaid it with fine gold, —and raised thereon palms, and wreathed garlands.
6 Han smykkede Hallen med Ædelsten; og Guldet var Parvajimguld;
And he covered the house with precious stones, for beauty, —and, the gold, was gold of Parvaim.
7 han overtrak Templet, Bjælkerne, Dørtærsklerne, Væggene og Dørfløjene med Guld og lod indgravere Keruber paa Væggene.
And he covered the house, the beams, the entrance-hall, and the walls thereof and the doors thereof, with gold, —and he carved cherubim upon the walls.
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.
And he made the most holy house, the length whereof, was, according to the breadth of the house, twenty cubits, and, the breadth thereof, twenty cubits, —and he covered it with fine gold, to [the number of] six hundred talents;
9 Naglerne havde en Vægt af halvtredsindstyve Guldsekel; og Rummene paa Taget overtrak han med Guld.

10 I det Allerhelligste satte han to Keruber i Billedskærerarbejde, og han overtrak dem med Guld.
And he made, in the most holy house, two cherubim, of carved work, —and covered them with gold.
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, as for the wings of the cherubim, the length of them, was twenty cubits, —the one wing, by the cubit was five, reaching to the wall of the house, and, the other wing, five cubits, 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.
and, the wing of the other cherub, was five cubits, reaching to the wall of the house, —and, the other wing, was five cubits, cleaving 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 cherubim, outspread, were twenty cubits, —and, they themselves, were standing upon their feet, and, their faces, were inward.
14 Tillige lavede han Forhænget af violet og rødt Purpur, karmoisinfarvet Stof og fint Linned og prydede det med Keruber.
And he made a vail, of blue and purple, and crimson and byssus cloth, —and raised thereon cherubim.
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, for the front of the house, two pillars, thirty five cubits in length, —and, the capital which was upon the top of each, was five cubits.
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.
And he made wreathen chains in the shrine, and put them upon the top of the pillars, —and he made one hundred pomegranates, and put them in the chains,
17 Disse Søjler rejste han foran Helligdommen, en til højre og en til venstre: den højre kaldte han Jakin, den venstre Boaz.
And he reared up the pillars in front of the temple, one, on the right, and, one, on the left, —and called the name of that on the right hand, Jachin, and the name of that on the left, Boaz.
