2 Chronicles 3
1 And Solomon began to build the house of Jehovah at Jerusalem on mount Moriah, where he appeared to David his father, in the place that David had prepared in the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
Derpå tog Salomo fat på at bygge HERRENs Hus i Jerusalem på Morija Bjerg, hvor HERREN havde ladet sig til Syne for hans Fader David, på det Sted, David havde beredt, på Jebusiten Ornans Tærskeplads.
2 And he began to build on the second of the second month, in the fourth year of his reign.
Han tog fat på Byggearbejdet i den anden Måned i sit fjerde Regeringsår.
3 And this was Solomon's foundation for the construction of the house of God. The length by cubits after the first measure was sixty cubits, and the breadth twenty cubits.
Målene på Grunden, som Salomo lagde ved Opførelsen af Guds Hus, var følgende: Længden var tresindstyve Alen efter gammelt Mål, Bredden tyve.
4 And the porch which was in front was twenty cubits in length, in front of the house broadways, and the height was a hundred and twenty; and he overlaid it within with pure gold.
Forhallen foran Templets Hellige var tyve Alen lang, svarende til Templets Bredde, og tyve Alen høj; og han overtrak den indvendig med purt Guld.
5 And the greater house he boarded with cypress-wood, which he overlaid with fine gold, and set on it palm-trees and chains.
Den store Hal dækkede han med Cyprestræ og overtrak den desuden med ægte Guld og prydede den med Palmer og Kranse.
6 And he overlaid the house with precious stones for beauty; and the gold was gold of Parvaim.
Han smykkede Hallen med Ædelsten; og Guldet var Parvajimguld;
7 And he covered the house, the beams, the threshold, and its walls, and its doors with gold, and engraved cherubim on the walls.
han overtrak Templet, Bjælkerne, Dørtærsklerne, Væggene og Dørfløjene med Guld og lod indgravere Keruber på Væggene.
8 And he made the house of the most holy place, the length of which was according to the breadth of the house, twenty cubits, and its breadth twenty cubits; and he covered it with fine gold, amounting to six hundred talents.
Han byggede fremdeles det Allerhelligste; dets Længde på tværs af Templet var tyve Alen, dets Bredde tyve; og han overtrak det med ægte Guld til en Vægt af 600 Talenter.
9 And the weight of the nails was fifty shekels of gold. And he covered the upper chambers with gold.
Naglerne havde en Vægt af halvtredsindstyve Guldsekel; og Rummene på Taget overtrak han med Guld.
10 And in the house of the most holy place he made two cherubim of image work, and they overlaid them with gold.
I det Allerhelligste satte han to Keruber i Billedskærerarbejde, og han overtrak dem med Guld.
11 And the wings of the cherubim were twenty cubits long: one wing of five cubits touched the wall of the house; and the other wing of five cubits touched the wing of the other cherub.
Kerubernes Vinger målte tilsammen tyve Alen i Længden; den enes ene Vinge, fem Alen lang, rørte Hallens ene Væg, medens den anden, fem Alen lang, rørte den andens Vinge;
12 And the wing of the other cherub of five cubits touched the wall of the house; and the other wing was five cubits joining the wing of the other cherub.
og den anden Kerubs ene Vinge, fem Alen lang, rørte Hallens modsatte Væg, medens den anden, fem Alen lang, nåede til den førsfe Kerubs Vinge.
13 The wings of these cherubim spread forth were twenty cubits; and they stood on their feet, and their faces were toward the house.
Disse Kerubers Vinger mnålte i deres fulde Udstrækning tyve Alen og de stod oprejst med Ansigtet indad.
14 And he made the veil of blue, and purple, and crimson, and byssus, and made cherubim upon it.
Tillige lavede han Forhænget af violet og rødt Purpur, karmoisinfarvet Stof og fint Linned og prvdede det med Keruber.
15 And before the house he made two pillars thirty-five cubits long; and the capital that was on the top of each of them was five cubits.
Foran Templet lavede han to Søjler. De var fem og tredive Alen høje, og Søjlehovedet oven på dem var fem Alen.
16 And he made chains [as] in the oracle, and he put them on the top of the pillars; and he made a hundred pomegranates, and put them on the chains.
Så lavede han Kranse som en Halskæde og anbragte dem øverst på Søjlerne, og fremdeles lavede han 100 Granatæbler og satte dem på Kransene.
17 And he set up the pillars in front of the temple, one on the right hand and the other on the left; and he called the name of that on the right Jachin, and the name of that on the left Boaz.
Disse Søjler rejste han foran Helligdommen, en til højre og en til venstre: den højre kaldte han Jakin, den venstre Boaz.
