Første Kongebog 7
1 På sit Palads byggede Salomo i tretten År; så fik han hele sit Palads færdigt.
But 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 på tre Rækker Cedersøjler med Skråstøtter af Cedertræ.
He built also the house of the forest of Lebanon; its length [was] a hundred cubits, and its breadth fifty cubits, and its hight thirty cubits, upon four rows of cedar pillars, with cedar beams upon the pillars.
3 Det var oven over Rummene tækket med Cederbjælker, der hvilede på fem og fyrretyve Søjler, femten i hver Række.
And [it was] covered with cedar above upon the beams, that [lay] on forty-five pillars, fifteen [in] a row.
4 Der var tre Lag Bjælker, og Lysåbning sad over for Lysåbning tre Gange.
And [there were] windows in three rows, and light [was] against light [in] three ranks.
5 Alle Døre og Lysåbninger havde firkantede Bjælkerammer, og Lysåbning sad over for Lysåbning tre Gange.
And all the doors and posts [were] square, with the windows: and light [was] against light [in] three ranks.
6 Fremdeles opførte han Søjlehallen, halvtredsindstyve Alen lang og tredive Alen bred, med en Hal, Søjler og Trappe foran.
And he made a porch of pillars; its length [was] fifty cubits, and its breadth thirty cubits: and the porch [was] before them: and the [other] pillars and the thick beams [were] before them.
7 Fremdeles opførte han Tronhallen, hvor han holdt Rettergang, Domhallen; den var dækket med Cedertræ fra Gulv til Loft,
Then he made a porch for the throne where he might judge, [even] the porch of judgment: and [it was] covered with cedar from one side of the floor to the other.
8 Hans eget Hus, det, han boede i, i den anden Forgård inden for Hallen, var bygget på samme Måde. Og til Faraos Datter, som Salomo havde ægtet, opførte han et Hus i Lighed med denne Hal.
And his house where he dwelt [had] another court within the porch, [which] was of the like work. Solomon made also a house for Pharaoh's daughter, whom he had married, like to this porch.
9 Det hele var af kostbare Sten, tilhugget efter Mål, tilsavet både indvendig og udvendig, lige fra Grunden til Murkanten, hvilket også gjaldt den store Forgård uden om Templets Forgård.
All these [were of] costly stones, according to the measures of hewn stones, sawed with saws, within and without, even from the foundation to the coping, and [so] on the outside towards the great court.
10 Grunden blev lagt med kostbare, store Sten, nogle på ti, andre på otte Alen.
And the foundation [was of] costly stones, even great stones; stones of ten cubits, and stones of eight cubits.
11 Ovenpå lagdes kostbare Sten, tilhugget efter Mål, og Cederbjælker.
And above [were] costly stones, after the measures of hewn stones, and cedars.
12 Den store Forgård var hele Vejen rundt omgivet af tre Lag tilhugne Sten og et Lag Cederbjælker, ligeledes HERRENs Huss Forgård, den indre, og Forgården om Paladsets Forhal.
And the great court around [was] with three rows of hewn stones, and a row of cedar beams, both for the inner court of the house of the LORD, and for the porch of the house.
13 Kong Salomo sendte Bud til Tyrus efter Hiram.
And 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] a widow's son of the tribe of Naphtali, and his father [was] a man of Tyre, a worker in brass: and he was filled with wisdom, and understanding, and ingenious to work all works in brass. And he came to king Solomon, and wrought all his work.
15 Han støbte de to kobbersøjler foran Forhallen. Den ene var atten Alen høj; den målte tolv Alen i Omkreds; den var hul, og Kobberet var fire Fingerbredder tykt. Ligeså den anden Søjle.
For he cast two pillars of brass, each of eighteen cubits high: and a line of twelve cubits did encompass each of them.
16 Og han lavede to Søjlehoveder til at sidde oven på Søjlerne, støbt af Kobber, hvert Søjlehoved fem Alen højt.
And he made two capitals [of] molten brass, to set upon the tops of the pillars: the hight of the one capital [was] five cubits, and the hight of the other capital [was] five cubits:
17 Og han lavede to Fletværker, flettet Arbejde, Snore, kædeformet Arbejde, til at dække Søjlehovederne oven på Søjlerne, et Fletværk fil hvert Søjleboved;
[And] nets of checker-work, and wreaths of chain-work, for the capitals which [were] upon 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; på samme Måde gjorde han også ved det andet.
And he made the pillars, and two rows around upon the one net-work, to cover the capitals that [were] upon the top, with pomegranates: and so he did for the other capital.
19 Søjlehovedeme på de to Søjler var liljeformet Arbejde.
And the capitals that [were] upon the top of the pillars [were] of lily-work in the porch, four cubits.
20 Søjlehovederne sad på de to Søjler.
And the capitals upon the two pillars [had pomegranates] also above, over against the belly which [was] by the net-work: and the pomegranates [were] two hundred in rows around upon the other capital.
21 Derpå opstillede han Søjlerne ved Templets Forhal; den Søjle, han opstillede til højre, kaldte han Jakin, og den, han opstillede til venstre, kaldte han Boaz.
And he set up the pillars in the porch of the temple: and 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 på Søjlerne var der liljeformet Arbejde. Således blev Arbejdet med Søjlerne færdigt.
And upon the top of the pillars [was] lily-work: so was the work of the pillars finished.
23 Fremdeles lavede han Havet i støbt Arbejde, ti Alen fra Rand til Rand, helt rundt, fem Alen højt; det målte tredive Alen i Omkreds.
And he made a molten sea, ten cubits from the one brim to the other: [it was] entirely round, and its hight [was] five cubits: and a line of thirty cubits encompassed it.
24 Under Randen var det hele Vejen rundt omgivet af agurklignende Prydelser, der nåede helt omkring Havet, tredive Alen; i to Rækker sad de agurklignende Prydelser, støbt i eet dermed.
And under the brim of it around [there were] knobs compassing it, ten in a cubit, compassing the sea around: the knobs [were] cast in two rows, when it was cast.
25 Det stod på tolv Okser, således at tre vendte mod Nord, tre mod Vest, tre mod Syd og tre mod Øst; Havet stod oven på dem; de vendte alle Bagkroppen indad.
It stood upon 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] above upon them, and all their hinder parts [were] inward.
26 Det var en Håndsbred tykt, og Randen var formet som Randen på et Bæger, som en udsprungen Lilje. Det tog 2000 Bat.
And it [was] a hand-breadth thick, and its brim was wrought like the brim of a cup, with flowers of lilies: it contained 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.
And he made ten bases of brass; four cubits [was] the length of one base, and four cubits the breadth of it, and three cubits the hight of it.
28 Og Stellene var indrettet så ledes: De havde Mellemstykker, og Mellemstykkerne sad mellem Rammestykkerne.
And the work of the bases [was] in this [manner]: They had borders, and the borders [were] between the ledges:
29 På Mellemstykkerne mellem Rammestykkerne var der Løver, Okser og Keruber, ligeledes på Rammestykkerne. Over og under Løverne og Okserne var der Kranse, lavet således, at de hang ned.
And on the borders that [were] between the ledges [were] lions, oxen, and cherubim: and upon the ledges [there was] a base above: and beneath the lions and oxen [were] certain additions made of thin work.
30 Hvert Stel havde fire Kobber hjul og Kobberaksler. De fire Hjørner havde Bærearme; under Bækkenet var Bærearmene faststøbt, og midt for hver af dem var der Kranse.
And every base had four brazen wheels, and plates of brass: and the four corners of it had undersetters: under the laver [were] undersetters molten, at the side of every addition.
31 Dets Rand var inden for Bærearmene, een Alen høj, og den var rund: også på Randen var der udskåret Arbejde. Mellemstykkerne var firkantede, ikke runde.
And the mouth of it within the capital and above [was] a cubit: but the mouth of it [was] round [after] the work of the base, a cubit and a half: and also upon the mouth of it [were] gravings with their borders, foursquare, not round.
32 De fire Hjul sad under Mellemstykkerne, og Hjulenes Akselholdere sad på Stellet; hvert Hjul var halvanden Alen højt.
And under the borders [were] four wheels; and the axletrees of the wheels [were joined] to the base: and the hight 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.
And the work of the wheels [was] like the work of a chariot wheel: their axletrees, and their naves, and their fellies, and their spokes, [were] all molten.
34 Der var en Bæream på hvert Stels fire Hjørner, og Bærearmene var i eet med Stellet;
And [there were] four undersetters to the four corners of one base: [and] the undersetters [were] of the very base itself.
35 og oven på Stellet var der en Slags Fatning, en halv Alen høj og helt rund; og Akselholdere og Mellemstykker sad fast på Stellet.
And in the top of the base [was there] a round compass of half a cubit high: and on the top of the base its ledges and its borders [were] of the same.
36 På Fladerne indgraverede han Keruber, Løver og Palmer, efter som der var Plads til, omgivet af Kranse.
For on the plates of its ledges, and on its borders, he graved cherubim, lions, and palm trees, according to the proportion of every one, and additions around.
37 Således lavede han de ti Stel; de var alle støbt på samme Måde, med samme Mål og af samme Form.
After this [manner] he made the ten bases: all of them had one casting, one measure, [and] one size.
38 Tillige lavede han ti Kobberbækkener; fyrretyve Bat tog hvert Bækken, og hvert Bækken målte fire Alen, et Bækken til hvert af de ti Stel.
Then he made ten lavers of brass: one laver contained forty baths: [and] every laver was four cubits: [and] upon every one of the ten bases one laver.
39 Og han satte fem af Stellene ved Templets Sydside, fem ved Nordsiden; og Havet opstillede han ved Templets Sydside, ved det sydøstre Hjørne.
And he put five bases on the right side of the house, and five on the left side of the house: and he set the sea on the right side of the house eastward over against the south.
40 Fremdeles lavede Hirom Karrene, Skovlene og Skålene. Der med var Hiram færdig med alt sit Arbejde for Kong Salomo til HERRENs Hus:
And Hiram made the lavers, and the shovels, and the basins. So Hiram made an end of doing all the work that he executed for king Solomon for the house of the LORD:
41 De to Søjler, og de to kuglefornede Søjlehoveder ovenpå, de to Fletværker til at dække de to kugleformede Søjlehoveder på Søjlerne,
The two pillars, and the [two] bowls of the capitals that [were] on the top of the two pillars; and the two net-works, to cover the two bowls of the capitals which [were] upon 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 på de to Søjler,
And four hundred pomegranates for the two net-works, [even] two rows of pomegranates for one net-work, to cover the two bowls of the capitals that [were] upon the pillars;
43 de ti Stel med de ti Bækkener på,
And the ten bases, and ten lavers on the bases;
44 Havet med de tolv Okser under,
And one sea, and twelve oxen under the sea;
45 Karrene, Skovlene og Skålene. Alle disse Ting, som Hiram lavede for Kong Salomo til HERRENs Hus, var af blankt Kobber.
And the pots, and the shovels, and the basins: and all these vessels which Hiram made to king Solomon for the house of the LORD, [were of] bright brass.
46 I Jordanegnen lod Kongen dem støbe, ved Adamas Vadested mellem Sukkot og Zaretan.
In the plain of Jordan did the king cast them, in the clay ground between Succoth and Zarthan.
47 Salomo lod alle Tingene uvejet på Grund af deres såre store Mængde, Kobberet blev ikke vejet.
And Solomon left all the vessels [unweighed], because they were very numerous: neither was the weight of the brass ascertained.
48 Og Salomo lod alle Tingene, som hørte til HERRENs Hus, lave: Guldalteret, Guldbordet, som Skuebrødene lå på,
And Solomon made all the vessels that [pertained] to the house of the LORD: the altar of gold, and the table of gold, upon which [was] the show-bread,
49 Lysestagerne, fem til højre og fem til venstre, foran Inderhallen, af purt Guld, med Blomsterbægrene, Lamperne og Lysesaksene af Guld,
And the candlesticks of pure gold, five on the right [side], and five on the left, before the oracle, with the flowers, and the lamps, and the tongs [of] gold,
50 Fadene, Knivene, Skålene, 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.
And the bowls, and the snuffers, and the basins, and the spoons, and the censers [of] pure gold; and the hinges [of] gold, [both] for the doors of the inner house, the most holy [place], [and] for the doors of the house, [to wit], of the temple.
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.
So was ended all the work that king Solomon made for the house of the LORD. And Solomon brought in the things which David his father had dedicated; [even] the silver, and the gold, and the vessels, he placed among the treasures of the house of the LORD.
