Anden Krønikebog 4
1 Fremdeles lavede han et Kobberalter, tyve Alen bredt og ti Alen højt.
Solomon made a bronze altar twenty cubits long, twenty cubits wide, and ten cubits high.
2 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 a “Sea” from cast metal, ten cubits in diameter, five cubits in height, and thirty cubits in circumference.
3 Under Randen var det hele Vejen rundt omgivet af agurklignende Prydelser, der omsluttede Havet helt rundt, tredive Alen; i to Rækker sad de agurklignende Prydelser, støbt i eet dermed.
Below it were ornamental bulls all around it, ten per cubit. They were in two rows when it was all cast.
4 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.
The Sea was supported by twelve statues of bulls three facing north, three facing west, three facing south, and three facing east. The Sea was placed on them, with their rears toward the center.
5 Det var en Haandsbred tykt, og Randen var formet som Randen paa et Bæger, som en udsprungen Lilje. Det tog 3000 Bat.
It was as thick as the width of a hand, and its edge was like the flared edge of a cup or a lily flower. It held three thousand baths.
6 Fremdeles lavede han ti Bækkener og satte fem til højre og fem til venstre, til Tvætning; i dem skyllede man, hvad der brugtes ved Brændofrene, medens Præsterne brugte Havet til at tvætte sig i.
He also made ten basins on carts for washing. He placed five on the south side, and five on the north. They were used for cleaning what was used in burnt offerings, but the Sea was used by the priests for washing.
7 Fremdeles lavede han de ti Guldlysestager, som de skulde være, og satte dem i Helligdommen, fem til højre og fem til venstre.
He made ten gold lampstands as had been specified, and placed them in the Temple, five on the south side and five on the north.
8 Fremdeles lavede han ti Borde og satte dem i Helligdommen, fem til højre og fem til venstre; tillige lavede han 100 Skaale af Guld.
In addition he made ten tables and placed them in the Temple, five on the south side and five on the north. He also made a hundred gold basins.
9 Fremdeles indrettede han Præsternes Forgaard og den store Gaard og Porte til Gaarden; Portfløjene overtrak han med Kobber.
Solomon also built a courtyard of the priests, and the large courtyard and doors for the courtyard, and he covered the doors with bronze.
10 Havet opstillede han ved Templets Sydside, ved det sydøstre Hjørne.
He placed the Sea on the south side, by the southeast corner.
11 Fremdeles lavede Huram Karrene, Skovlene og Skaalene. Dermed var Huram færdig med sit Arbejde for Kong Salomo ved Guds Hus:
Hiram also made the pots, shovels, and basins. Hiram completed the work that he had been doing for King Solomon on the Temple of God:
12 De to Søjler og de to kugleformede Søjlehoveder ovenpaa, de to Fletværker til at dække de to, kugleformede Søjlehoveder paa Søjlerne,
the two columns; the two bowl-shaped capitals on top of the columns; the two sets of network that covered both bowls of the capitals on top of the columns;
13 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 ornamental pomegranates for the two sets of network—two rows of pomegranates for each network covering both the bowl-shaped capitals on top of the columns;
14 de ti Stel med de ti Bækkener paa,
the water carts and the basins on the water carts;
15 Havet med de tolv Okser under.
the Sea and the twelve bull statues that supported it; the pots, shovels, forks, and everything else.
16 Karrene, Skovlene og Skaalene og alle de Ting, som hørte til, lavede Huram-Abi af blankt Kobber for Kong Salomo til HERRENS Hus.
All the metalwork Hiram made for King Solomon for the house of the Lord was of polished bronze.
17 I Jordandalen lod Kongen dem støbe, ved Adamas Vadested mellem Sukkot og Zereda.
The king cast them in clay molds in the plain of the Jordan between Succoth and Zeredah.
18 Salomo lod alle disse Ting lave i stor Mængde, thi Kobberet blev ikke vejet.
Solomon made so many of these things that the weight of the bronze used could not be measured.
19 Og Salomo lod alle Tingene, som hørte til Guds Hus, lave: Guldalteret, Bordene, som Skuebrødene laa paa,
Solomon also made everything used in the Temple of God: the golden altar; the tables where the Bread of the Presence was displayed;
20 Lysestagerne med Lamperne, der skulde tændes paa den foreskrevne Maade, foran Inderhallen, af purt Guld,
the lampstands of pure gold and their lamps that were to burn in front of the Most Holy Place as specified;
21 med Blomsterbægrene, Lamperne og Lysesaksene af Guld, ja af det allerbedste Guld,
the decorative flowers, lamps, and tongs—all made of solid gold;
22 Knivene, Skaalene, Kanderne og Panderne af fint Guld og Dørhængslerne til Templet, til Inderdørene for det Allerhelligste og til Dørene for det Hellige, af Guld.
the wick trimmers, basins, dishes and censers—all made of gold; and the doors of the Temple: the inner doors to the Most Holy Place, and the doors of the main hall—all covered with gold.
