1 Kings 7
1 And Solomon was thirteen years building his own house; and he finished all his house.
Domum autem suam aedificavit Salomon tredecim annis, et ad perfectum usque perduxit.
2 And he built the house of the forest of Lebanon; its length was a hundred cubits, and its breadth fifty cubits, and its height thirty cubits, upon four rows of cedar-pillars, with cedar-beams upon the pillars;
Aedificavit quoque domum saltus Libani centum cubitorum longitudinis, et quinquaginta cubitorum latitudinis, et triginta cubitorum altitudinis: et quattuor deambulacra inter columnas cedrinas: ligna quippe cedrina exciderat in columnas.
3 and it was covered with cedar above upon the side-chambers, which were on forty-five pillars, fifteen in a row.
Et tabulatis cedrinis vestivit totam cameram, quae quadragintaquinque columnis sustentabatur. Unus autem ordo habebat columnas quindecim
4 And there were cross-beams in three rows, and window was against window in three ranks.
contra se invicem positas,
5 And all the doors and posts were square, with an architrave; and window was against window in three ranks.
et e regione se respicientes, aequali spatio inter columnas, et super columnas quadrangulata ligna in cunctis aequalia.
6 And he made the porch of pillars; its length was fifty cubits, and its breadth thirty cubits; and there was a porch in front of them; and there were pillars, and steps in front of them.
Et porticum columnarum fecit quinquaginta cubitorum longitudinis, et triginta cubitorum latitudinis: et alteram porticum in facie maioris porticus: et columnas, et epistylia super columnas.
7 And he made the porch for the throne where he judged, the porch of judgment; and it was covered with cedar from floor to floor.
Porticum quoque solii, in qua tribunal est, fecit: et texit lignis cedrinis a pavimento usque ad summitatem.
8 And his house where he dwelt had another court within the porch, which was of the like work. And he made, like to this porch, a house for Pharaoh's daughter, whom Solomon had taken.
Et domuncula, in qua sedebatur ad iudicandum, erat in media porticu, simili opere. Domum quoque fecit filiae Pharaonis (quam uxorem duxerat Salomon) tali opere, quali et hanc porticum.
9 All these [buildings] were of costly stones, hewn stones, according to the measures, sawed with saws, within and without, even from the foundation to the coping, and on the outside as far as the great court.
Omnia lapidibus pretiosis, qui ad normam quandam atque mensuram tam intrinsecus quam extrinsecus serrati erant: a fundamento usque ad summitatem parietum, et intrinsecus usque ad atrium maius.
10 And the foundations were of costly stones, great stones, stones of ten cubits and stones of eight cubits.
Fundamenta autem de lapidibus pretiosis, lapidibus magnis decem sive octo cubitorum.
11 And above were costly stones, hewn stones, according to the measures, and cedar.
Et desuper lapides pretiosi aequalis mensurae secti erant, similiterque de cedro.
12 And the great court round about had three rows of hewn stones, and a row of cedar-beams; and so it was for the inner court of the house of Jehovah, and the porch of the house.
Et atrium maius rotundum trium ordinum de lapidibus sectis, et unius ordinis de dolata cedro: necnon et in atrio domus Domini interiori, et in porticu domus.
13 And king Solomon sent and fetched Hiram out of Tyre.
Misit quoque rex Salomon, et tulit Hiram de Tyro,
14 He was a widow's son of the tribe of Naphtali, and his father was a man of Tyre, a worker in brass; and he was full of wisdom and understanding and knowledge, to do all kinds of works in brass. And he came to king Solomon, and made all his work.
filium mulieris viduae de tribu Nephthali, patre Tyrio, artificem aerarium, et plenum sapientia, et intelligentia, et doctrina ad faciendum omne opus ex aere. Qui cum venisset ad regem Salomonem, fecit omne opus eius.
15 And he formed the two pillars of brass; the height of one pillar was eighteen cubits, and a line of twelve cubits encompassed the second pillar.
Et finxit duas columnas aereas, decem et octo cubitorum altitudinis columnam unam: et linea duodecim cubitorum ambiebat columnam utramque.
16 And he made two capitals of molten brass, to set upon the tops of the pillars; the height of the one capital was five cubits, and the height of the other capital was five cubits;
Duo quoque capitella fecit, quae ponerentur super capita columnarum, fusilia ex aere: quinque cubitorum altitudinis capitellum unum, et quinque cubitorum altitudinis capitellum alterum:
17 [and] nets of checker-work, wreaths of chain-work, for the capitals which were upon the top of the pillars; seven for the one capital and seven for the other capital.
et quasi in modum retis, et catenarum sibi invicem miro opere contextarum. Utrumque capitellum columnarum fusile erat: septena versuum retiacula in capitello uno, et septena retiacula in capitello altero.
18 And he made pomegranates, namely two rows round about upon the one network, to cover the capitals that were upon the top of the pillars; and so he did for the other capital.
Et perfecit columnas, et duos ordines per circuitum retiaculorum singulorum, ut tegerent capitella, quae erant super summitatem, malogranatorum: eodem modo fecit et capitello secundo.
19 And the capitals that were upon the top of the pillars were of lily-work [as] in the porch, four cubits.
Capitella autem, quae erant super capita columnarum, quasi opere lilii fabricata erant in porticu quattuor cubitorum.
20 And the capitals upon the two pillars, above also, close to the enlargement which was behind the network, had two hundred pomegranates in rows round about, [also] on the other capital.
Et rursum alia capitella in summitate columnarum desuper iuxta mensuram columnae contra retiacula: malogranatorum autem ducenti ordines erant in circuitu capitelli secundi.
21 And he set up the pillars for the porch of the temple; and he set up the right pillar, and called its name Jachin; and he set up the left pillar, and called its name Boaz.
Et statuit duas columnas in porticu templi: cumque statuisset columnam dexteram, vocavit eam nomine Iachin: similiter erexit columnam secundam: et vocavit nomen eius Booz.
22 And upon the top of the pillars was lily-work; and the work of the pillars was finished.
Et super capita columnarum opus in modum lilii posuit: perfectumque est opus columnarum.
23 And he made the sea, molten, ten cubits from brim to brim, round all about; and its height was five cubits; and a line of thirty cubits encompassed it round about.
Fecit quoque mare fusile decem cubitorum a labio usque ad labium, rotundum in circuitu: quinque cubitorum altitudo eius, et resticula triginta cubitorum cingebat illud per circuitum.
24 And under the brim of it round about there were colocynths, encompassing it, ten in a cubit enclosing the sea round about; two rows of colocynths, cast when it was cast.
Et sculptura subter labium circuibat illud decem cubitis ambiens mare: duo ordines sculpturarum histriatarum erant fusiles.
25 It stood upon twelve oxen, three looking toward the north, and three looking toward the west, and three looking toward the south, and three looking toward the east; and the sea was above upon them, and all their hinder parts were inward.
Et stabant super duodecim boves, e quibus tres respiciebant ad Aquilonem, et tres ad Occidentem, et tres ad Meridiem, et tres ad Orientem, et mare super eos desuper erat: quorum posteriora universa intrinsecus latitabant.
26 And its thickness was a hand-breadth, and its brim was like the work of the brim of a cup, with lily-blossoms; it held two thousand baths.
Grossitudo autem luteris, trium unciarum erat: labiumque eius, quasi labium calicis, et folium repandi lilii: duo millia batos capiebat et tria millia metretas.
27 And he made ten bases of brass: four cubits was the length of one base, and the breadth four cubits, and the height three cubits.
Et fecit decem bases aeneas, quattuor cubitorum longitudinis bases singulas, et quattuor cubitorum latitudinis, et trium cubitorum altitudinis.
28 And the work of the bases was this: they had panels, and the panels were between the fillets.
Et ipsum opus basium, interrasile erat: et sculpturae inter iuncturas.
29 And on the panels that were between the fillets were lions, oxen and cherubim; and over the fillets there was a base above; and beneath the lions and oxen were garlands of festoon-work.
Et inter coronulas et plectas, leones et boves et cherubim: et in iuncturis similiter desuper: et subter leones, et boves quasi lora ex aere dependentia.
30 And every base had four wheels of brass, and axles of brass; and on its four corners were shoulder-pieces: under the laver were shoulder-pieces molten, behind every garland.
Et quattuor rotae per bases singulas, et axes aerei: et per quattuor partes quasi humeruli subter luterem fusiles, contra se invicem respectantes.
31 And the mouth of it within the crown and above was a cubit; and its mouth was rounded, [as] the work of the base, a cubit and a half; and also upon its mouth was sculpture; but their panels were square, not round.
Os quoque luteris intrinsecus erat in capitis summitate: et quod forinsecus apparebat, unius cubiti erat totum rotundum, pariterque habebat unum cubitum et dimidium: in angulis autem columnarum variae caelaturae erant: et media intercolumnia, quadrata non rotunda.
32 And the four wheels were under the panels; and the supports of the wheels were in the base; and the height of a wheel was a cubit and half a cubit.
Quattuor quoque rotae, quae per quattuor angulos basis erant, cohaerebant sibi subter basim: una rota habebat altitudinis cubitum et semis.
33 And the work of the wheels was like the work of a chariot wheel: their supports, and their rims, and their spokes and their naves were all molten.
Tales autem rotae erant quales solent in curru fieri: et axes earum, et radii, et canthi, et modioli, omnia fusilia.
34 And there were four shoulder-pieces to the four corners of one base; of the base itself were its shoulder-pieces.
Nam et humeruli illi quattuor per singulos angulos basis unius, ex ipsa basi fusiles et coniuncti erant.
35 And in the top of the base there was a circular elevation of half a cubit round about; and on the top of the base its stays and its panels were of the same.
In summitate autem basis erat quaedam rotunditas unius et dimidii cubiti, ita fabrefacta, ut luter desuper posset imponi, habens caelaturas suas, variasque sculpturas ex semetipsa.
36 And he engraved on the plates of its stays and on its panels cherubim, lions and palm-trees, according to the space upon each; and garlands were round about.
Sculpsit quoque in tabulatis illis, quae erant ex aere, et in angulis, cherubim, et leones, et palmas, quasi in similitudinem hominis stantis, ut non caelata, sed apposita per circuitum viderentur.
37 After this [manner] he made the ten bases: all of them had one casting, one measure, one form.
In hunc modum fecit decem bases, fusura una, et mensura, sculpturaque consimili.
38 And he made ten lavers of brass: one laver contained forty baths; every laver was four cubits; upon every one of the ten bases one laver.
Fecit quoque decem luteres aeneos: quadraginta batos capiebat luter unus, eratque quattuor cubitorum: singulos quoque luteres per singulas, id est, decem bases, posuit.
39 And he put the bases, five on the right side of the house, and five on the left side of the house; and he set the sea on the right side of the house eastward, over against the south.
Et constituit decem bases, quinque ad dexteram partem templi, et quinque ad sinistram: mare autem posuit ad dexteram partem templi contra Orientem ad Meridiem.
40 And Hiram made the lavers, and the shovels, and the bowls. So Hiram ended doing all the work that he made for king Solomon [for] the house of Jehovah:
Fecit ergo Hiram lebetes, et scutras, et amulas, et perfecit omne opus regis Salomonis in templo Domini.
41 two pillars, and the globes of the capitals that were on the top of the pillars, two; and the two networks, to cover the two globes of the capitals which were on the top of the pillars;
Columnas duas, et funiculos capitellorum super capitella columnarum duos: et retiacula duo, ut operirent duos funiculos, qui erant super capita columnarum.
42 and the four hundred pomegranates for the two networks, two rows of pomegranates for one network, to cover the two globes of the capitals which were upon the pillars;
Et malogranata quadringenta in duobus retiaculis: duos versus malogranatorum in retiaculis singulis, ad operiendos funiculos capitellorum, qui erant super capita columnarum.
43 and the ten bases, and the ten lavers on the bases;
Et bases decem, et luteres decem super bases.
44 and one sea, and the twelve oxen under the sea;
Et mare unum, et boves duodecim subter mare.
45 and the pots, and the shovels, and the bowls. And all these things, which Hiram made king Solomon for the house of Jehovah, were of bright brass.
Et lebetes, et scutras, et amulas. omnia vasa, quae fecit Hiram regi Salomoni in domo Domini, de auricalco erant.
46 In the plain of the Jordan did the king cast them, in the clay-ground between Succoth and Zaretan.
In campestri regione Iordanis fudit ea rex in argillosa terra, inter Sochoth et Sarthan.
47 And Solomon left all the vessels [unweighed] from their exceeding number; the weight of the brass was not ascertained.
Et posuit Salomon omnia vasa: propter multitudinem autem nimiam non erat pondus aeris.
48 And Solomon made all the vessels that were [in] the house of Jehovah: the golden altar; and the table of gold, whereon was the shewbread;
Fecitque Salomon omnia vasa in domo Domini: altare aureum, et mensam, super quam ponerentur panes propositionis, auream:
49 and the candlesticks of pure gold, five on the right, and five on the left, before the oracle; and the flowers, and the lamps, and the tongs of gold,
et candelabra aurea, quinque ad dexteram, et quinque ad sinistram contra oraculum ex auro puro: et quasi lilii flores, et lucernas desuper aureas: et forcipes aureos,
50 and the basons, and the knives, and the bowls, and the cups, and the censers of pure gold; and the hinges of gold, for the folding-doors of the inner house, the most holy place, [and] for the doors of the house, of the temple.
et hydrias, et fuscinulas, et phialas, et mortariola, et thuribula, de auro purissimo: et cardines ostiorum domus interioris Sancti sanctorum, et ostiorum domus templi, ex auro erant.
51 And all the work was finished that king Solomon made for the house of Jehovah. And Solomon brought in the things that David his father had dedicated; the silver and the gold and the vessels he put among the treasures of the house of Jehovah.
Et perfecit omne opus quod faciebat Salomon in domo Domini, et intulit quae sanctificaverat David pater suus, argentum et aurum, et vasa, reposuitque in thesauris domus Domini.
