2 Chronicles 3

1 Then Solomon made a start at building the house of the Lord on Mount Moriah in Jerusalem, where the Lord had been seen by his father David, in the place which David had made ready in the grain-floor of Ornan the Jebusite.

١ وَشَرَعَ سُلَيْمَانُ فِي بِنَاءِ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ، فِي جَبَلِ ٱلْمُرِيَّا حَيْثُ تَرَاءَى لِدَاوُدَ أَبِيهِ، حَيْثُ هَيَّأَ دَاوُدُ مَكَانًا فِي بَيْدَرِ أُرْنَانَ ٱلْيَبُوسِيِّ.

2 The building was started in the second month in the fourth year of his rule.

٢ وَشَرَعَ فِي ٱلْبِنَاءِ فِي ثَانِي ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلثَّانِي فِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلرَّابِعَةِ لِمُلْكِهِ.

3 And Solomon put the base of the house of God in position; by the older measure it was sixty cubits long and twenty cubits wide.

٣ وَهَذِهِ أَسَّسَهَا سُلَيْمَانُ لِبِنَاءِ بَيْتِ ٱللهِ: ٱلطُّولُ بِٱلذِّرَاعِ عَلَى ٱلْقِيَاسِ ٱلْأَوَّلِ سِتُّونَ ذِرَاعًا، وَٱلْعَرْضُ عِشْرُونَ ذِرَاعًا.

4 And the covered way in front of the house was twenty cubits long, as wide as the house, and a hundred and twenty cubits high, all plated inside with the best gold.

٤ وَٱلرِّواقُ ٱلَّذِي قُدَّامَ ٱلطُّولِ حَسَبَ عَرْضِ ٱلْبَيْتِ عِشْرُونَ ذِرَاعًا، وَٱرْتِفَاعُهُ مِئَةٌ وَعِشْرُونَ، وَغَشَّاهُ مِنْ دَاخِلٍ بِذَهَبٍ خَالِصٍ.

5 And the greater house was roofed with cypress-wood, plated with the best gold and ornamented with designs of palm-trees and chains.

٥ وَٱلْبَيْتُ ٱلْعَظِيمُ غَشَّاهُ بِخَشَبِ سَرْوٍ، غَشَّاهُ بِذَهَبٍ خَالِصٍ، وَجَعَلَ عَلَيْهِ نَخِيلًا وَسَلَاسِلَ.

6 And the house was made beautiful with stones of great value, and the gold was gold of Parvaim.

٦ وَرَصَّعَ ٱلْبَيْتَ بِحِجَارَةٍ كَرِيمَةٍ لِلْجَمَالِ. وَٱلذَّهَبُ ذَهَبُ فَرَوَايِمَ.

7 All the house was plated with gold, the supports, the steps, the walls and the doors; and the walls were ornamented with designs of winged ones.

٧ وَغَشَّى ٱلْبَيْتَ: أَخْشَابَهُ وَأَعْتَابَهُ وَحِيطَانَهُ وَمَصَارِيعَهُ بِذَهَبٍ، وَنَقَشَ كَرُوبِيمَ عَلَى ٱلْحِيطَانِ.

8 And he made the most holy place; it was twenty cubits long, and twenty cubits wide, like the greater house, and was plated all over with the best gold; six hundred talents were used for it.

٨ وَعَمِلَ بَيْتَ قُدْسِ ٱلْأَقْدَاسِ، طُولُهُ حَسَبَ عَرْضِ ٱلْبَيْتِ عِشْرُونَ ذِرَاعًا، وَعَرْضُهُ عِشْرُونَ ذِرَاعًا، وَغَشَّاهُ بِذَهَبٍ جَيِّدٍ سِتِّ مِئَةِ وَزْنَةٍ.

9 And fifty shekels weight of gold was used for the nails. He had all the higher rooms plated with gold.

٩ وَكَانَ وَزْنُ ٱلْمَسَامِيرِ خَمْسِينَ شَاقِلًا مِنْ ذَهَبٍ، وَغَشَّى ٱلْعَلَالِيَّ بِذَهَبٍ.

10 And in the most holy place he made images of two winged beings, covering them with gold.

١٠ وَعَمِلَ فِي بَيْتِ قُدْسِ ٱلْأَقْدَاسِ كَرُوبَيْنِ صَنَاعَةَ ٱلصِّيَاغَةِ، وَغَشَّاهُمَا بِذَهَبٍ.

11 Their outstretched wings were twenty cubits across; one wing, five cubits long, touching the wall of the house, and the other, of the same size, meeting the wing of the other winged one.

١١ وَأَجْنِحَةُ ٱلْكَرُوبَيْنِ طُولُهَا عِشْرُونَ ذِرَاعًا، ٱلْجَنَاحُ ٱلْوَاحِدُ خَمْسُ أَذْرُعٍ يَمَسُّ حَائِطَ ٱلْبَيْتِ، وَٱلْجَنَاحُ ٱلْآخَرُ خَمْسُ أَذْرُعٍ يَمَسُّ جَنَاحَ ٱلْكَرُوبِ ٱلْآخَرِ.

12 And in the same way, the wings of the other, five cubits long, were stretched out, one touching the wall and the other meeting the wing of the first winged one.

١٢ وَجَنَاحُ ٱلْكَرُوبِ ٱلْآخَرِ خَمْسُ أَذْرُعٍ يَمَسُّ حَائِطَ ٱلْبَيْتِ، وَٱلْجَنَاحُ ٱلْآخَرُ خَمْسُ أَذْرُعٍ يَتَّصِلُ بِجَنَاحِ ٱلْكَرُوبِ ٱلْآخَرِ.

13 Their outstretched wings were twenty cubits across; they were placed upright on their feet, facing the inner part of the house.

١٣ وَأَجْنِحَةُ هَذَيْنِ ٱلْكَرُوبَيْنِ مُنْبَسِطَةٌ عِشْرُونَ ذِرَاعًا، وَهُمَا وَاقِفَانِ عَلَى أَرْجُلِهِمَا وَوَجْهُهُمَا إِلَى دَاخِلٍ.

14 And he made the veil of blue and purple and red, of the best linen, worked with winged ones.

١٤ وَعَمِلَ ٱلْحِجَابَ مِنْ أَسْمَانْجُونِيٍّ وَأُرْجُوانٍ وَقِرْمِزٍ وَكَتَّانٍ، وَجَعَلَ عَلَيْهِ كَرُوبِيمَ.

15 And in front of the house he made two pillars, thirty-five cubits high, with crowns on the tops of them, five cubits high.

١٥ وَعَمِلَ أَمَامَ ٱلْبَيْتِ عَمُودَيْنِ، طُولُهُمَا خَمْسٌ وَثَلَاثُونَ ذِرَاعًا، وَٱلتَّاجَانِ ٱللَّذَانِ عَلَى رَأْسَيْهِمَا خَمْسُ أَذْرُعٍ.

16 And he made chains, like neck ornaments, and put them on the tops of the pillars, and a hundred apples on the chains.

١٦ وَعَمِلَ سَلَاسِلَ كَمَا فِي ٱلْمِحْرَابِ وَجَعَلَهَا عَلَى رَأْسَيِ ٱلْعَمُودَيْنِ، وَعَمِلَ مِئَةَ رُمَّانَةٍ وَجَعَلَهَا فِي ٱلسَّلَاسِلِ.

17 He put up the pillars in front of the Temple, one on the right side and one on the left, naming the one on the right Jachin and that on the left Boaz.

١٧ وَأَوْقَفَ ٱلْعَمُودَيْنِ أَمَامَ ٱلْهَيْكَلِ، وَاحِدًا عَنِ ٱلْيَمِينِ وَوَاحِدًا عَنِ ٱلْيَسَارِ، وَدَعَا ٱسْمَ ٱلْأَيْمَنِ «يَاكِينَ» وَٱسْمَ ٱلْأَيْسَرِ «بُوعَزَ».
