< Kings III 7 >
1 And Solomon built a house for himself in thirteen years.
Salomo sane sii ɔno ankasa nʼahemfie. Na mfirinhyia dumiɛnsa na ɔde wiee ahemfie no sie.
2 And he built the house with the wood of Libanus; its length [was] a hundred cubits, and its breadth [was] fifty cubits, and its height [was] of thirty cubits, and [it was made] with three rows of cedar pillars, and the pillars had side-pieces of cedar.
Na wɔfrɛ Salomo adan no mu baako Lebanon Kwaeɛm Ahemfie. Na ne ntentenemu yɛ anammɔn ɔha ne aduonum. Ne tɛtrɛtɛ yɛ anammɔn aduɔson enum, ɛnna ne ɔsorokɔ yɛ anammɔn aduanan enum. Na ntweneduro nsamsoɔ no mpunan no deda ntweneduro fadum ɛnan a wɔatoto ahyehyɛ no tee so.
3 And he formed the house with chambers above on the sides of the pillars, and the number of the pillars [was each] row forty and five,
Na wɔabɔ ntweneduro nsamsoɔ a ɛtwere mpunan aduanan enum a ɛno nso gugu fadum a wɔatoto, ahyehyɛ no ntentenesoɔ mmiɛnsa mu a, dunum na ɛwɔ ntentenesoɔ baako biara mu.
4 and [there were] three chambers, and space against space in three rows.
Afasuo no fa biara, mpomma sesa so mmiɛnsa mmiɛnsa a ɛdidi nhwɛanimu.
5 And all the doors and spaces formed like chambers [were] square, and from door to door [was a correspondence] in three rows.
Apono no akwan nyinaa, wɔayɛ no ahinanan mmiɛnsa mmiɛnsa a ɛdidi nhwɛanimu.
6 And [he made] the porch of the pillars, [they were] fifty [cubits] long and fifty broad, the porch joining them in front; and the [other] pillars and the thick beam [were] in front of the house by the porches.
Ɔsii afadum asa a ne ntentenemu yɛ anammɔn aduɔson enum, na ne tɛtrɛtɛ yɛ anammɔn aduanan enum. Na ntwonoo a wɔakuru so wɔ animu a ɛsi afadum so.
7 And [there was] the Porch of seats where he would judge, the porch of judgment.
Na ahennwa asa a na wɔnim no sɛ atemmuo asa nso wɔ hɔ. Ɛhɔ na na Salomo tena, di nsɛm. Na wɔde ntweneduro asam firi fam, de kɔsi nsamsoɔ so.
8 And their house where he would dwell, [had] one court communicating with these according to this work; and [he built] the house for the daughter of Pharao whom Solomon had taken, according to this porch.
Baabi a na Salomo teɛ no twa asɛnniiɛ a ɛwɔ asa no akyi no ho hyia. Ɛkwan korɔ no ara so na wɔfa de siiɛ. Ɔsii ne dan no sɛso de maa Farao babaa a na ɔyɛ ne yerenom no mu baako.
9 All these [were] of costly stones, sculptured at intervals within even from the foundation even to the top, and outward to the great court,
Aboɔ akɛseɛ a wɔatwa no pɛpɛɛpɛ a ne boɔ yɛ den yie na wɔde sii saa adan no.
10 founded with large costly stones, stones of ten cubits and eight cubits [long].
Aboɔ a wɔde too ɛdan no fapem no ntentenemu yɛ anammɔn dunum, ɛnna ebi nso ntentenemu yɛ anammɔn dumienu.
11 And above with costly stones, according to the measure of hewn stones, and with cedars.
Aboɔ a ne boɔ yɛ den yie a wɔde sii afasuo no nso, na wɔasusu, atwa no pɛpɛɛpɛ a ntweneduro mpunan nso ka ho.
12 [There were] three rows of hewn [stones] round about the great hall, and a row of sculptured cedar.
Adihɔ kɛseɛ no afasuo no nso, wɔto de ntweneduro mpunan aduntire baako biara too aboɔ a wɔatwa aduntire mmiɛnsa biara so, te sɛ afasuo a ɛwɔ Awurade Asɔredan mfimfini mu hɔ a ntwonoo kwan ka ho.
13 And king Solomon sent, and took Chiram out of Tyre,
Ɔhene Salomo bisaa ɔbarima bi a ɔfiri Tiro a ne din de Huram ase sɛ ɔmfiri Tiro mmra,
14 the son of a widow woman; and he [was] of the tribe of Nephthalim, and his father [was] a Tyrian; a worker in brass, and accomplished in are and skill and knowledge to work every work in brass: and he was brought in to king Solomon, and he wrought all the works.
ɛfiri sɛ, na ɔyɛ odwumfoɔ a ɔnim kɔbere mfrafraeɛ ho adwinneɛ yie. Na ɔyɛ Israelni fa, ɛfiri sɛ, ne maame yɛ okunafoɔ a ɔfiri Naftali abusuakuo mu. Nʼagya nso na ɔyɛ adwuma wɔ baabi a wɔnane nnadeɛ wɔ Tiro. Enti, ɔbɛyɛɛ adwuma maa ɔhene Salomo.
15 And he cast the two pillars for the porch of the house: eighteen cubits [was] the height of [each] pillar, and a circumference of fourteen cubits encompassed it, even the thickness of the pillar: the flutings [were] four fingers [wide], and thus [was] the other pillar [formed].
Huram twaa kɔbere mfrafraeɛ afadum mmienu a emu biara ɔsorokɔ yɛ anammɔn aduonu nson, ɛnna ne kankomu nso yɛ anammɔn dunwɔtwe.
16 And he made two molten chapiters to put on the heads of the pillars: five cubits [was] the height of one chapiter, and five cubits [was] the height of the other chapiter.
Afadum no apampam no, ɔde kɔbere mfrafraeɛ yɛɛ aduntire a emu biara ɔsorokɔ yɛ anammɔn nson ne fa.
17 And he made two ornaments of network to cover the chapiters of the pillars; even a net for one chapiter, and a net for the other chapiter.
Ntaasoɔ biara nso, wɔde atena a wɔanwono nson ne nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn na ahyehyɛ ho.
18 And hanging work, two rows of brazen pomegranates, formed with network, hanging work, row upon row: and thus he framed [the ornaments] for the second chapiter. And he set up the pillars of the porch of the temple: and he set up the one pillar, and called its name Jachum: and he set up the second pillar, and called its name Boloz.
Na ɔyɛɛ ateaa nsɛso a ɛsesa so tee mmienu bebaree atena a wɔanwono no de siesiee aduntire a ɛwɔ afadum no atifi.
19 And on the heads of the pillars he made lily-work against the porch, of four cubits,
Ntaasoɔ a ɛwɔ afadum a ɛwɔ ntwonoo no mu no, na wɔayɛ no sɛ sukooko a ne ɔsorokɔ yɛ anammɔn nsia.
20 and a chamber over both the pillars, and above the sides an addition [equal to] the chamber in width.
Ntaasoɔ biara a na ɛwɔ afadum mmienu no so no nso, na ateaa nsɛso ahanu a wɔahyehyɛ no tee tee mmienu atwa ho ahyia a, ɛbɛn kankonimu a ɛtoa atena a wɔanwono no so.
Huram de afadum no sisii Asɔredan no ɛkwan ano a baako kyerɛ anafoɔ fam na baako nso kyerɛ atifi fam. Ɔtoo baako a ɛkyerɛ anafoɔ fam no din Yakin (Ɔde atim hɔ) ɛnna deɛ ɛkyerɛ atifi fam no, ɔtoo no Boas (Ne mu na ahoɔden wɔ).
Afadum no aduntire no, wɔyɛɛ no sɛ sukooko. Saa na ɔyɛ de wiee afadum no ho adwuma.
23 And he made the sea, ten cubits from one rim to the other, the same was completely circular round about: its height [was] five cubits, and its circumference thirty-three cubits.
Afei, Huram twaa dwaresɛn kurukuruwa kɛseɛ bi a ɛfiri ano kɔka ano no yɛ anammɔn dunum. Wɔtoo no edin Ɛpo. Na emu tenten yɛ anammɔn nson ne fa, na ne kankomu nso yɛ anammɔn aduanan enum.
24 And stays underneath its rim round about compassed it ten cubits round;
Ɛpo no ano pɛɛ na na wɔde nkoraa a wɔadi no adwini atwa ho ahyia. Na nkoraa bɛyɛ nsia a ɛkwan a ɛdeda wɔn ntam yɛ anammɔn baako. Na wɔayɛ ama ayɛ sɛ dwaresɛn no fa bi.
25 And [there were] twelve oxen under the sea: three looking to the north, and three looking to the west, and three looking to the south, and three looking to the east: and all their hinder parts [were] inward, and the sea [was] above upon them.
Na Ɛpo no si nsiaseɛ a ɛyɛ kɔbere mfrafraeɛ anantwie dumienu sɛso so. Na wɔn nyinaa ani kyerɛkyerɛ abɔntene. Mmiɛnsa ani kyerɛ atifi fam. Mmiɛnsa ani kyerɛ atɔeɛ fam. Mmiɛnsa kyerɛ anafoɔ fam, ɛnna mmiɛnsa nso ani kyerɛ apueeɛ fam.
26 and its rim [was] as the work of the rim of a cup, a lily-flower, and the thickness of it [was] a span.
Na Ɛpo no afasuo mu pipiripie bɛyɛ nsateakwaa mmiɛnsa, na ano no ntrɛmu te sɛ bonsua, na na ɛte sɛ sukooko a apaeɛ. Na ɛbɛtumi akora nsuo bɛyɛ gyare mpem dubaako.
27 And he made ten brazen bases: five cubits [was] the length of one base, and four cubits the breadth of it, and its height [was] six cubits.
Huram sane yɛɛ nteaseɛnam edu a wɔde twe nsuo a emu biara tentenemu yɛ anammɔn nsia na ne tɛtrɛtɛmu nso yɛ anammɔn nsia, ɛnna ne ɔsorokɔ yɛ anammɔn ɛnan ne fa.
28 And this work of the bases [was] formed with a border the them, and [there was] a border between the ledges.
Na sɛdeɛ wɔyɛɛ nteaseɛnam no ne sɛ, ɛwowɔ mfomfamsoɔ ntrawantrawa a wɔabram so.
29 And upon their borders between the projection [were] lions, and oxen, and cherubs: and on the projections, even so above, and also below [were] the places of lions and oxen, hanging work.
Wɔde agyata, anantwie ne Kerubim a wɔasene siesiee mfomfamsoɔ no ne nnadeɛ a wɔde bram ɛpono akyi no. Agyata no ne anantwie no so ne wɔn ase na wɔagu nhwiren a wɔahyehyɛ, de asiesie wɔn.
30 And [there were] four brazen wheels to one base; and [there were] brazen bases, and their four sides [answering to them], side pieces under the bases.
Na saa nteaseɛnam no mu biara wɔ kɔbere mfrafraeɛ ntwahonan ɛnan ne kɔbere mfrafraeɛ ntwahodadeɛ. Na nteaseɛnam biara twɛtwɛwa no wɔ nnyinasoɔ afadum de ma kɔbere mfrafraeɛ dwaresɛn no; saa nnyinasoɔ no ho na wɔadi nhwiren a wɔahyehyɛ adwini.
31 And [there were] axles in the wheels under the base.
Nteaseɛnam no biara wɔ nnyinasoɔ kurukuruwa bi wɔ nʼatifi ma dwaresɛn no. Na ɛhwire mu, kɔ soro bɛyɛ anammɔn baako ne fa wɔ teaseɛnam no atifi te sɛ ntaamudeɛ kurukuruwa bi. Na ano a abue no yɛ anammɔn mmienu ne nsateakwaa mmiɛnsa. Ɛho no na wɔde nhwiren a wɔahyehyɛ adwinnie asiesie. Na nteaseɛnam no mfomfamsoɔ no yɛ ahinanan na ɛnyɛ kurukuruwa.
32 And the height of one wheel [was] a cubit and a half.
Mfomfamsoɔ no ase na ntwahonan ɛnan a wɔde atoa ntwahodadeɛ so a wɔagu ne nyinaa atoa mu ayɛ baako no hyehyɛ. Na ɛfiri ntwahonan no kanko ano kɔsi ano yɛ anammɔn mmienu ne nsateakwaa mmiɛnsa,
33 And the work of the wheels [was] as the work of chariot wheels: their axles, and their felloes, and [the rest of] their work, [were] all molten.
a na ɛte sɛ teaseɛnam a ɛwɔ ntwahonan mmienu. Emu ntwahodadeɛ, mpadeɛ, hankra ne ne brɛmo no nyinaa, wɔde kɔbere mfrafraeɛ na ɛyɛeɛ.
34 The four side pieces were at the four corners of each base; its shoulders [were formed] of the base.
Na teaseɛnam no ahanan nyinaa nsosɔmu wowɔ hɔ, na ne nyinaa nso, wɔagu atoa mu baako, ma ɛne teaseɛnam no atoa mu.
35 And on the top of the base half a cubit [was] the size of it, [there was] a circle on the top of the base, and [there was] the top of its spaces and its borders: and it was open at the top of its spaces.
Nteaseɛnam no mu biara atifi no, na na hankra bi a ne tɛtrɛtɛ yɛ nsateakwaa nkron wɔ. Nsosɔmu no ne nkyɛnkyɛn mfomfamsoɔ no nso, wɔagu ma ɛne teaseɛnam no atoa mu.
36 And its borders [were] cherubs, and lions, and palm-trees, upright, each [was] joined in front [and] within and round about.
Wɔde Kerubim, agyata ne mmɛdua a wɔasene siesiee mfomfamsoɔ no ne nnyinasoɔ ahodoɔ no ho baabiara a ɛkwan wɔ. Na wɔagu nhwiren a wɔahyehyɛ atwa ho nyinaa ahyia.
37 According to the same form he made all the ten bases, [even] one order and one measure to all.
Nsuo nteaseɛnam edu no, na ne nyinaa akɛseɛ yɛ pɛ, na ne nyinaa sesɛ, na wɔguu ne nyinaa wɔ ade korɔ mu.
38 And he made ten brazen lavers, each laver containing forty baths, [and] measuring four cubits, each laver [placed] on a several base throughout the ten bases.
Huram sane yɛɛ kɔbere mfrafraeɛ dwaresɛn edu de maa nteaseɛnam no mu biara. Na dwaresɛn no mu tɛtrɛtɛ yɛ anammɔn nsia a ɛtumi kora nsuo gyare ahanu aduonu.
39 And he put five bases on the right side of the house, and five on the left side of the house: and the sea was placed on the right side of the house eastward in the direction of the south.
Ɔhyehyɛɛ nsuo nteaseɛnam no enum wɔ Asɔredan no anafoɔ fam ɛnna enum nso wɔ atifi fam. Wɔde Ɛpo no sii Asɔredan no anafoɔ apueeɛ fam twɛtwɛwa so.
40 And Chiram made the cauldrons, and the pans, and the bowls; and Chiram finished making all the works that he wrought for king Solomon in the house of the Lord:
Afei, ɔyɛɛ nkukuo, sofi ne dwaresɛn a ɛho hia. Ne korakora no, Huram wiee biribiara a ɔhene Salomo kyerɛɛ no sɛ ɔnyɛ wɔ Awurade Asɔredan no ho:
41 two pillars and the wreathen works of the pillars on the heads of the two pillars; and the two networks to cover both the wreathen works of the flutings that were upon the pillars.
afadum mmienu, aduntire a wɔayɛ no sɛ asansuo mmienu a ɛsisi afadum no atifi, nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn mmienu a wɔde asiesie aduntire no,
42 The four hundred pomegranates for both the networks, two rows of pomegranates for one network, to cover both the wreathen works of the bases belonging to both pillars.
ateaa nsɛso ahanan a ɛsensɛn nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn a ɛgu aduntire no so (ateaa a wɔahyehyɛ no ntentenesoɔ mmienu a ebiara sa nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn a ɛsensɛn aduntire a ɛwɔ afadum no atifi no so no),
43 And the ten bases, and the ten lavers upon the bases.
nsuo nteaseɛnam edu a dwaresɛn edu sisi soɔ,
44 And one sea, and the twelve oxen under the sea.
Ɛpo no ne anantwie dumienu a ɛhyehyɛ aseɛ,
45 And the cauldrons, and pans, and bowls, and all the furniture, which Chiram made for king Solomon for the house of the Lord: and [there were] eight and forty pillars of the house of the king and of the house of the Lord: all the works of the king which Chiram made were entirely of brass.
Nkukuo, sofi ne dwaresɛn. Na nkuku ne nkaka a Huram yɛ maa ɔhene Salomo de guu Awurade Asɔredan mu no nyinaa yɛ kɔbere mfrafraeɛ a wɔapɔ ho.
Ɔhene ma wɔguu no kankua a na ɛwɔ Yordan bɔnhwa a na ɛwɔ Sukot ne Saretan ntam no mu.
47 There was no reckoning of the brass of which he made all these works, from the very great abundance, there was no end of the weight of the brass. In the country round about Jordan did he cast them, in the clay land between Socchoth and Sira.
Salomo ankari nkuku ne nkaka no, ɛfiri sɛ, na ɛdɔɔso dodo; na kɔbere mfrafraeɛ no mu duru nso, wɔantumi ankari.
48 And king Solomon took the furniture which [Chiram] made for the house of the Lord, the golden altar, and the golden table of show bread.
Na Salomo de saa nneɛma yi nyinaa siesiee Awurade Asɔredan no mu: sikakɔkɔɔ afɔrebukyia, sikakɔkɔɔ kyerɛ ɛpono a Hyiadan mu Burodo no gu soɔ,
49 And [he put] the five candlesticks on the left, and five on the right in front of the oracle, [being] of pure gold, and the lamp-stands, and the lamps, and the snuffers of gold.
sikakɔkɔɔ kaneadua a ɛnnum sisi anafoɔ fam, na enum sisi atifi fam wɔ kronkron mu kronkron animu hɔ; nhwiren a wɔde asiesie hɔ, nkanea ne nkapɛ a ne nyinaa yɛ sikakɔkɔɔ,
50 And [there were made] the porches, and the nails, and the bowls, and the spoons, and the golden censers, of pure gold: and the panels of the doors of the innermost part of the house, [even] the holy of holies, and the golden doors of the temple.
nkuruwa, nkanea akapɛ, nsisoɔ, nyowaa ne nkyɛnsee a wɔnoa mu nyinaa yɛ sikakɔkɔɔ nko ara; ɛkwan ano apono a ɛkɔ kronkron mu kronkron ne Asɔredan no mu ne animu nyinaa, wɔde sikakɔkɔɔ duraa ho.
51 So the work of the house of the Lord which Solomon wrought was finished; and Solomon brought in the holy things of David his father, and all the holy things of Solomon; he put the silver, and the gold, and the furniture, into the treasures of the house of the Lord.
Ɔhene Salomo wiee Awurade asɔredan no ho adwuma nyinaa. Na Salomo de akyɛdeɛ a nʼagya Dawid ato edin no nyinaa a ɛyɛ dwetɛ, sikakɔkɔɔ ne nkuku ne nkaka ba bɛkoraa wɔ adekoradan mu wɔ Awurade Asɔredan mu hɔ.
