< 2 Chronicles 3 >

1 And Solomon began to build the house of the Lord, in Jerusalem on mount Moriah, as it had been shown to David his father, at the place which David had prepared on the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
Salomon tanmen bati Tanp Seyè a lavil Jerizalèm sou mòn Morija a, kote Seyè a te parèt devan David, papa l', sou anplasman David te pare pou sa a, ki vle di kote Onan, moun Jebis la, te gen glasi l' la.
2 Now he began to build in the second month, in the fourth year of his reign.
Lè sa a, Salomon te gen twazan yon mwa de jou depi li te wa.
3 And these are the foundations, which Solomon set forth so that he might build the house of God: the length in cubits by the first measure sixty, the width in cubits twenty.
Salomon te bati Tanp lan sou yon fondasyon ki te gen katrevendis pye longè sou trant pye lajè.
4 Truly, at the front, the portico, which was extended in length according to the measure of the width of the house, was of twenty cubits. Then the height was of one hundred twenty cubits. And he overlaid it on the interior with the purest gold.
Gwo pyès ki te devan Tanp lan te gen trant pye lajè menm jan ak Tanp lan, ak sankatreven (180) pye wotè. Salomon te fè kouvri tout miray anndan pyès la ak bon lò.
5 Also, he covered the greater house with wooden panels of spruce, and he affixed layers of refined gold through it all. And he engraved in them palm trees, and the likeness of little chains interlaced with one another.
Li plake planch bwapen sou tout anndan gwo pyès la. Li kouvri tout bwa yo nèt ak bon lò. Lèfini, li fè yo mete pòtre pye palmis ak ti chenn.
6 Also, he paved the floor of the temple with the most precious marble, of great beauty.
Li dekore l' ak bèl pyè koute chè. Yo te sèvi ak bon kalite lò ki soti peyi Pavayim.
7 Now the gold, with which he covered in layers the house and its beams and posts and walls and doors, was highly refined. And he engraved cherubim on the walls.
Li kouvri tout anndan Tanp lan ak lò: travès yo, ankadreman pòt yo, palisad yo ak pòt yo menm. Sou tout palisad yo, li fè mete pòtre zanj cheriben.
8 Also, he made the house of the Holy of Holies. Its length, in accord with the width of the temple, was of twenty cubits. And its width, similarly, was of twenty cubits. And he covered it with layers of gold, of about six hundred talents.
Yo bati tou pyès ki apa nèt pou Seyè a. Li te gen trant pye lajè, menm jan ak Tanp lan, ak trant pye longè, kare kare. Yo sèvi ak venmil (20.000) kilo lò pou kouvri tout anndan l'.
9 Then he also made nails of gold, such that each nail weighed fifty shekels. Also, he covered the upper rooms in gold.
Klou yo te sèvi yo te fèt an lò tou. Yo chak te peze senksan (500) gram. Yo kouvri tout miray anndan pyès anwo yo tou ak lò.
10 Now he also made, in the house of the Holy of Holies, two cherubim as a work of statues. And he covered them with gold.
Nan pyès ki apa nèt pou Seyè a, li fè fè de estati zanj cheriben. Li fè kouvri yo ak lò nèt.
11 The wings of the cherubim extended for twenty cubits, such that one wing had five cubits and it touched the wall of the house, and the other, having five cubits, touched the wing of the other cherub.

12 Similarly, the wing of the other cherub was five cubits, and it touched the wall, and his other wing of five cubits also touched the wing of the other cherub.

13 And so the wings of both cherubim were stretched out and extended for twenty cubits. Now they were standing upright on their feet, and their faces were turned toward the exterior house.
Yo te mete zanj yo kanpe yonn bò kote lòt, ak figi yo bay sou pòt antre pyès la. Yo chak te gen de zèl. Chak zèl te gen sèt pye edmi longè. Zèl yo te louvri. Pwent zèl anndan yo touche yonn ak lòt nan mitan pyès la, de pwent zèl deyò yo touche ak de miray sou kote yo. Konsa, longè tout zèl yo ansanm te bay trant pye.
14 Also, he made a veil from hyacinth, purple, scarlet, and fine linen. And he wove within it cherubim.
Li fè yo fè yon rido pou pyès ki apa nèt pou Seyè a ak twal ble, twal wouj, twal violèt. Li fè bwode pòtre zanj cheriben sou rido a tou.
15 And also, before the doors of the temple, there were two pillars, having a height of thirty-five cubits. But their heads were of five cubits.
Salomon fè fè de gwo poto won. Yo chak te gen senkannde pye wotè. Li mete yo kanpe devan Tanp lan. Tèt poto yo te mezire sèt pye edmi wotè.
16 Then too, there were something like little chains on the oracle, and he placed these upon the heads of the pillars. And there were one hundred pomegranates, which he placed between the little chains.
Li fè ti chenn mare yonn ak lòt, li mete yo fè wonn anwo tèt poto yo ansanm ak pòtre grenad li mare nan ti chenn yo.
17 Also, he placed these pillars in the vestibule of the temple, one to the right, and the other to the left. The one that was on the right, he called Jachin; and the one that was on the left, Boaz.
Li mete poto yo devan Tanp lan, yo yonn chak bò pòtay la. Yo rele sa ki te bò dwat la Jakin, sa ki te bò gòch la Boaz.
