1 Kings 6
1 In the four hundred and eightieth year after the Israelites had come out of the land of Egypt, in the month of Ziv, the second month of the fourth year of Solomon’s reign over Israel, he began to build the house of the LORD.
Salomo abandaki kotonga Tempelo ya Yawe sima na mibu nkama minei na mwambe, wuta Isalaele abimaki na Ejipito, mobu oyo ekokanaki na mobu ya minei ya bokonzi na ye kati na Isalaele, na sanza ya zivi.
2 The house that King Solomon built for the LORD was sixty cubits long, twenty cubits wide, and thirty cubits high.
Tempelo oyo Salomo atongaki mpo na Yawe ezalaki na bametele pene tuku misato na molayi, bametele pene zomi na mokuse mpe bametele pene zomi na mitano na bosanda.
3 The portico at the front of the main hall of the temple was twenty cubits long, extending across the width of the temple and projecting out ten cubits in front of the temple.
Liboso ya Tempelo, na liboso ya eteni oyo eleki monene kati na Tempelo, ezalaki na ndako moko ya moke ya kokotela oyo ezalaki na bametele pene zomi na mokuse; molayi na yango ezalaki ndenge moko na mokuse ya Tempelo; mpe ekota na kati na bametele pene mitano.
4 He also had narrow windows framed high in the temple.
Atiaki na bamir ya Tempelo maninisa oyo batia biyungulu.
5 Against the walls of the temple and the inner sanctuary, Solomon built a chambered structure around the temple, in which he constructed the side rooms.
Atongaki pembeni ya bamir ya eteni oyo eleki monene kati na Tempelo mpe pembeni ya Esika-Oyo-Eleki-Bule biteni ya mike, ngambo na ngambo, na lolenge ya etaje.
6 The bottom floor was five cubits wide, the middle floor six cubits, and the third floor seven cubits. He also placed offset ledges around the outside of the temple, so that nothing would be inserted into its walls.
Etaje oyo ya se ya biteni yango ya mike ezalaki na bametele mibale na basantimetele tuku mitano na mokuse; etaje ya kati-kati, bametele pene misato na mokuse; mpe etaje oyo ya misato, bametele misato na basantimetele tuku mitano na mokuse. Boye bamir ya libanda ya Tempelo etikalaki lisusu minene te na likolo mpo ete motondo ebebisa bamir ya Tempelo te.
7 The temple was constructed using finished stones cut at the quarry, so that no hammer or chisel or any other iron tool was heard in the temple while it was being built.
Mpo na kotonga Tempelo, basalelaki kaka mabanga oyo ebongisamaki malamu wuta na esika oyo bapasolaki yango; boye, esalaki ete makelele ya marto, ya epasola to ya esalelo mosusu ya ebende etikalaki koyokana te wana bazalaki kotonga yango.
8 The entrance to the bottom floor was on the south side of the temple. A stairway led up to the middle level, and from there to the third floor.
Ekotelo ya etaje ya se ezalaki na ngambo ya sude ya Tempelo; bongo, bazalaki kotambola na binyatelo mpo na komata na etaje ya kati-kati mpe na etaje ya misato.
9 So Solomon built the temple and finished it, roofing it with beams and planks of cedar.
Tango Salomo asilisaki misala ya kotonga Tempelo, azipaki yango na plafon oyo esimbamaki na mabaya minene ya banzete ya sedele.
10 He built chambers all along the temple, each five cubits high and attached to the temple with beams of cedar.
Atongaki ba-etaje kolanda mir ya Tempelo: etaje moko na moko ezalaki na bosanda ya bametele mibale na basantimetele tuku mitano, mpe ekanganaki na Tempelo na nzela ya mabaya minene ya sedele mpo na kosimba motondo.
11 Then the word of the LORD came to Solomon, saying:
Yawe alobaki na Salomo:
12 “As for this temple you are building, if you walk in My statutes, carry out My ordinances, and keep all My commandments by walking in them, I will fulfill through you the promise I made to your father David.
— Na likambo oyo etali Tempelo oyo ozali kotonga, soki olandi bikateli na Ngai, soki okokisi malako na Ngai, soki otosi mpe olandi mibeko na Ngai nyonso, nakokokisa na nzela na yo elaka oyo napesaki na Davidi, tata na yo.
13 And I will dwell among the Israelites and will not abandon My people Israel.”
Mpe nakoya kovanda kati na bato ya Isalaele mpe nakosundola te bato na Ngai, Isalaele.
14 So Solomon built the temple and finished it.
Salomo atongaki Tempelo mpe asilisaki misala na yango ya kotonga.
15 He lined the interior walls with cedar paneling from the floor of the temple to the ceiling, and he covered the floor with cypress boards.
Alatisaki bamir ya kati ya Tempelo na mabaya ya sedele, kobanda na se kino na likolo, mpe atiaki mabaya ya sipele na mabele ya Tempelo.
16 He partitioned off the twenty cubits at the rear of the temple with cedar boards from floor to ceiling to form within the temple an inner sanctuary, the Most Holy Place.
Atongaki na mabaya ya sedele, kobanda na se kino na likolo, etando ya bametele pene zomi kati na Tempelo; abongisaki yango mpo ete ezala Esika-Oyo-Eleki-Bule.
17 And the main hall in front of this room was forty cubits long.
Eteni oyo elekaki monene kati na Tempelo, liboso ete okoma na Esika-Oyo-Eleki-Bule, ezalaki na bametele pene tuku mibale.
18 The cedar paneling inside the temple was carved with gourds and open flowers. Everything was cedar; not a stone could be seen.
Batobolaki bililingi na mabaya ya sedele oyo balatisaki na bamir ya kati ya Tempelo, mpo na kotia bilembo oyo ezalaki na lolenge ya bakolokente mpe ya bafololo efungwama; balatisaki kati nyonso ya Tempelo na mabaya ya banzete ya sedele, mpe ata libanga moko te ezalaki komonana.
19 Solomon also prepared the inner sanctuary within the temple to set the ark of the covenant of the LORD there.
Salomo abongisaki Esika-Oyo-Eleki-Bule mpo na kotia Sanduku ya Boyokani ya Yawe.
20 The inner sanctuary was twenty cubits long, twenty cubits wide, and twenty cubits high. He overlaid the inside with pure gold, and he also overlaid the altar of cedar.
Molayi ya Esika-Oyo-Eleki-Bule ezalaki na bametele pene zomi, mokuse na yango, bametele pene zomi; bongo bosanda na yango, bametele pene zomi. Salomo abambaki kati na yango wolo ya peto; abambaki lisusu wolo na etumbelo oyo basala na mabaya ya banzete ya sedele.
21 So Solomon overlaid the inside of the temple with pure gold, and he extended gold chains across the front of the inner sanctuary, which was overlaid with gold.
Salomo abambaki wolo ya peto na kati nyonso ya Tempelo; atiaki basheni ya wolo liboso ya Esika-Oyo-Eleki-Bule.
22 So he overlaid with gold the whole interior of the temple, until everything was completely finished. He also overlaid with gold the entire altar that belonged to the inner sanctuary.
Boye, abambaki wolo na kati nyonso ya Tempelo mpe na etumbelo oyo ezalaki liboso ya Esika-Oyo-Eleki-Bule.
23 In the inner sanctuary he made two cherubim, each ten cubits high, out of olive wood.
Kati na Esika-Oyo-Eleki-Bule, asalaki na nzete ya olive bililingi mibale ya basheribe: sheribe moko na moko ezalaki na bametele pene mitano na molayi.
24 One wing of the first cherub was five cubits long, and the other wing was five cubits long as well. So the full wingspan was ten cubits.
Lipapu moko ya sheribe ezalaki na bametele mibale na basantimetele tuku mitano; kosangisa mapapu nyonso mibale epesaki bametele mitano, kobanda na songe moko kino na songe mosusu.
25 The second cherub also measured ten cubits; both cherubim had the same size and shape,
Molayi ya sheribe ya mibale ezalaki mpe na bametele pene mitano. Bililingi ya basheribe nyonso mibale ezalaki lolenge moko mpe molayi moko.
26 and the height of each cherub was ten cubits.
Bosanda ya bililingi nyonso mibale ya basheribe ezalaki ndenge moko: bametele pene mitano.
27 And he placed the cherubim inside the innermost room of the temple. Since their wings were spread out, the wing of the first cherub touched one wall, while the wing of the second cherub touched the other wall, and in the middle of the room their wingtips touched.
Salomo atiaki bililingi ya basheribe yango na kati-kati ya Esika-Oyo-Eleki-Bule kati na Tempelo. Mapapu ya basheribe ezalaki ya kofungwama: lipapu moko ya sheribe ya liboso etutaki mir, mpe lipapu mosusu ya sheribe ya mibale etutaki mir mosusu; mpe mapapu na bango mibale mosusu etutanaki na kati-kati ya Esika-Oyo-Eleki-Bule.
28 He also overlaid the cherubim with gold.
Salomo abambaki basheribe yango wolo.
29 Then he carved the walls all around the temple, in both the inner and outer sanctuaries, with carved engravings of cherubim, palm trees, and open flowers.
Atobolaki na bamir oyo ezingelaki Tempelo, ezala na kati to na libanda, bililingi ya basheribe, ya banzete ya mbila mpe ya bafololo ya kofungwama.
30 And he overlaid the temple floor with gold in both the inner and outer sanctuaries.
Abambaki lisusu wolo na se ya Tempelo, ezala na kati to na libanda ya Esika-Oyo-Eleki-Bule.
31 For the entrance to the inner sanctuary, Solomon constructed doors of olive wood with five-sided doorposts.
Salomo asalaki na mabaya ya banzete ya olive, na ekotelo ya Esika-Oyo-Eleki-Bule, ekuke moko ya bizipelo mibale: monene ya kadre ya mabaya ya ekuke ezwaki ndambo moko kati na bandambo mitano ya mokuse ya mir.
32 The double doors were made of olive wood, and he carved into them cherubim, palm trees, and open flowers and overlaid the cherubim and palm trees with hammered gold.
Atobolaki bililingi ya basheribe, ya banzete ya mbila mpe ya bafololo ya kofungwama na bizipelo nyonso mibale oyo basalaki na mabaya ya banzete ya olive; abambaki wolo oyo balekisa na moto na bililingi ya basheribe, ya banzete ya mbila mpe ya bafololo ya kofungwama.
33 In the same way he made four-sided doorposts of olive wood for the sanctuary entrance.
Asalaki mpe ndenge moko mpo na ekotelo ya eteni ya Tempelo, oyo eleki monene: kadre na mabaya ya banzete ya olive, bizipelo mibale na mabaya ya banzete ya sipele. Monene na yango ezwaki ndambo moko kati na bandambo minei ya mokuse ya mir.
34 The two doors were made of cypress wood, and each had two folding panels.
Asalaki lisusu na mabaya ya sipele bizipelo mibale; ezipelo ya liboso ezalaki na biteni ya mabaya mibale oyo ebalukaka, mpe ezipelo ya mibale ezalaki na barido mibale oyo ebalukaka.
35 He carved into them cherubim, palm trees, and open flowers; and he overlaid them with gold, hammered evenly over the carvings.
Atobolaki likolo na yango bililingi ya basheribe, ya banzete ya mbila mpe ya bafololo ya kofungwama; mpe abambaki yango wolo na kolanda bandelo ya bililingi yango.
36 Solomon built the inner courtyard with three rows of dressed stone and one row of trimmed cedar beams.
Salomo azingelaki lopango ya kati na mir oyo batonga na milongo misato ya mabanga bakata mpe bamatisa moko likolo ya mosusu, mpe na molongo moko ya mabaya minene ya sedele mpo na kosimba motondo.
37 The foundation of the house of the LORD was laid in the fourth year of Solomon’s reign, in the month of Ziv.
Moboko ya Tempelo ya Yawe etiamaki na mobu ya minei, na sanza ya Zivi.
38 In his eleventh year and eighth month, the month of Bul, the temple was finished in every detail and according to every specification. So he built the temple in seven years.
Basilisaki kotonga Tempelo ya Yawe elongo na biteni na yango nyonso na sanza ya Buli oyo ezali sanza ya mwambe, na mobu ya zomi na moko. Salomo asalaki mibu sambo mpo na kotonga Tempelo ya Yawe.
