1 Kings 6
1 And it came to pass in the four hundred and eightieth year after the children of Israel were come out of the land of Egypt, in the fourth year of Solomon's reign over Israel, in the month Zif, which is the second month, that he began to build the house of Jehovah.
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 And the house that king Solomon built for Jehovah was sixty cubits in length, and twenty in breadth, and thirty cubits in height.
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 And the porch, in front of the temple of the house, was twenty cubits in length, in front of the house broadways, [and] ten cubits was its breadth, in front of the house.
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 And for the house he made closed windows with fixed lattices.
Atiaki na bamir ya Tempelo maninisa oyo batia biyungulu.
5 And against the wall of the house he built floors round about, [against] the walls of the house, round about the temple and the oracle; and he made side-chambers round about.
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 lowest floor was five cubits broad, and the middle one was six cubits broad, and the third was seven cubits broad; for in the [thickness of the wall of] the house he made resets round about outside, that nothing should be fastened in the walls of the house.
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 And the house, when it was being built, was built of stone entirely made ready before it was brought thither; so that there was neither hammer nor axe nor any tool of iron heard in the house 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 side-chambers of the middle [floor] was in the right side of the house; and they went up by winding stairs into the middle [floor], and out of the middle into the third.
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 And he built the house, and finished it; and covered the house with beams and boards of cedar.
Tango Salomo asilisaki misala ya kotonga Tempelo, azipaki yango na plafon oyo esimbamaki na mabaya minene ya banzete ya sedele.
10 And he built the floors against all the house, five cubits high; and they held to the house by the timbers 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 And the word of Jehovah came to Solomon saying,
Yawe alobaki na Salomo:
12 As to this house which thou art building, if thou wilt walk in my statutes, and practise mine ordinances, and keep all my commandments to walk in them, then will I perform my word as to thee which I spoke unto David thy father;
— 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 children of Israel, and will not forsake my people Israel.
Mpe nakoya kovanda kati na bato ya Isalaele mpe nakosundola te bato na Ngai, Isalaele.
14 And Solomon built the house and finished it.
Salomo atongaki Tempelo mpe asilisaki misala na yango ya kotonga.
15 And he built the walls of the house within with boards of cedar, from the floor of the house to the walls of the roof; he overlaid [them] on the inside with wood, and overlaid the floor of the house with boards of cypress.
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 And he built twenty cubits of the innermost part of the house, both floor and walls, with boards of cedar; and he built [them] for it within, to [be] the oracle, 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 house, that is, the temple before it, 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 And the cedar of the house within was carved with colocynths and half-open flowers: all was cedar; there was no stone 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 And he prepared the oracle in the midst of the house within, to set there the ark of the covenant of Jehovah.
Salomo abongisaki Esika-Oyo-Eleki-Bule mpo na kotia Sanduku ya Boyokani ya Yawe.
20 And the oracle within was twenty cubits in length, and twenty cubits in breadth, and twenty cubits in the height thereof; and he overlaid it with pure gold; and he overlaid the cedar-wood altar —
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 and Solomon overlaid the house within with pure gold, and shut off the oracle in front with chains of gold, and overlaid it with gold.
Salomo abambaki wolo ya peto na kati nyonso ya Tempelo; atiaki basheni ya wolo liboso ya Esika-Oyo-Eleki-Bule.
22 And the whole house he overlaid with gold, the whole house entirely; also the whole altar that was by the oracle he overlaid with gold.
Boye, abambaki wolo na kati nyonso ya Tempelo mpe na etumbelo oyo ezalaki liboso ya Esika-Oyo-Eleki-Bule.
23 And he made in the oracle two cherubim of olive-wood, ten cubits high;
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 and one wing of the cherub was five cubits, and five cubits the other wing of the cherub, ten cubits from the end of one wing to the end of the other wing;
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 and the other cherub was ten cubits: both the cherubim were of one measure and one form.
Molayi ya sheribe ya mibale ezalaki mpe na bametele pene mitano. Bililingi ya basheribe nyonso mibale ezalaki lolenge moko mpe molayi moko.
26 The height of the one cherub was ten cubits, and so of the other cherub.
Bosanda ya bililingi nyonso mibale ya basheribe ezalaki ndenge moko: bametele pene mitano.
27 And he set the cherubim in the midst of the inner house; and the wings of the cherubim were stretched forth, so that the wing of the one touched the wall, and the wing of the other cherub touched the other wall; and their wings touched, wing to wing, in the midst of the house.
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 And he overlaid the cherubim with gold.
Salomo abambaki basheribe yango wolo.
29 And he carved all the walls of the house round about with carved sculptures of cherubim, and palm-trees, and half-open flowers, within and without.
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 the floor of the house he overlaid with gold, within and without.
Abambaki lisusu wolo na se ya Tempelo, ezala na kati to na libanda ya Esika-Oyo-Eleki-Bule.
31 And for the entrance of the oracle he made doors of olive-wood: the lintel [and] side posts were the fifth part [of the breadth of the house].
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 two doors were of olive-wood; and he carved on them carvings of cherubim, and palm-trees and half-open flowers, and overlaid them with gold, and spread gold on the cherubim and on the palm-trees.
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 And he also made for the doorway of the temple posts of olive-wood, of the fourth part [of the breadth of the house].
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 And the two folding-doors were of cypress-wood: the two leaves of the one door were folding, and the two leaves of the other door were folding.
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 And he carved on them cherubim, and palm-trees, and half-open flowers; and overlaid them with gold fitted on the carved work.
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 And he built the inner court of three rows of hewn stone, and a row of 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 In the fourth year was the foundation of the house of Jehovah laid, in the month Zif;
Moboko ya Tempelo ya Yawe etiamaki na mobu ya minei, na sanza ya Zivi.
38 and in the eleventh year, in the month Bul, which is the eighth month, was the house finished in all its parts, and according to all the fashion of it. So he was seven years in building it.
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.
