2 Chronicles 3
1 And Solomon began to build the house of the Lord in Jerusalem, in mount Moria, which had been shewn to David his father, in the place which David had prepared in the thrashingfloor of Ornan the Jebusite.
Entonces Salomón comenzó la construcción de la casa del Señor en el monte Moriah en Jerusalén, donde su padre David había visto al Señor, en el lugar que David había preparado para ello, donde trillaba el grano Ornán, el Jebuseo.
2 And he began to build in the second month, in the fourth year of his reign.
El edificio se inició en el segundo mes del cuarto año de su gobierno.
3 Now these are the foundations, which Solomon laid, to build the house of God, the length by the first measure sixty cubits, the breadth twenty cubits.
Y Salomón puso la base de la casa de Dios en posición; según la medida anterior, tenía sesenta codos de largo y veinte codos de ancho.
4 And the porch in the front, which was extended in length according to the measure of the breadth of the house, twenty cubits: and the height was a hundred and twenty cubits: and he overlaid it within with pure gold.
Y el pórtico frente a la casa tenía veinte codos de largo, tan ancho como la casa, y ciento veinte codos de altura, todos revestidos con el mejor oro.
5 And the greater house he ceiled with deal boards, and overlaid them with plates of fine gold throughout: and he graved in them palm trees, and like little chains interlaced with one another.
Y la casa mayor estaba cubierta con madera de ciprés, revestida con el mejor oro y adornada con diseños de palmeras y cadenas.
6 He paved also the floor of the temple with most precious marble, of great beauty.
Y la casa se hizo hermosa con piedras de gran valor, y el oro era de Parvaim.
7 And the gold of the plates with which he overlaid the house, and the beams thereof, and the posts, and the walls, and the doors was of the finest: and he graved cherubims on the walls.
Toda la casa estaba chapada en oro, los soportes, los escalones, las paredes y las puertas; y las paredes estaban adornadas con querubines.
8 He made also the house of the holy of holies: the length of it according to the breadth of the temple, twenty cubits, and the breadth of it in like manner twenty cubits: and he overlaid it with plates of gold, amounting to about six hundred talents.
E hizo el Lugar Santísimo; tenía veinte codos de largo y veinte codos de ancho, como la casa más grande, y estaba revestido por todas partes con el mejor oro; Se usaron seiscientos talentos para ello.
9 He made also nails of gold, and the weight of every nail was fifty sicles: the upper chambers also he overlaid with gold.
Y se usaron cincuenta siclos de oro para los clavos. Tenía todas las habitaciones altas chapadas en oro.
10 He made also in the house of the holy of holies two cherubims of image work: and he overlaid them with gold.
Y en el Lugar Santísimo mandó esculpir dos querubines, cubriéndolos de oro.
11 The wings of the cherubims were extended twenty cubits, so that one wing was five cubits long, and reached to the wall of the house: and the other was also five cubits long, and reached to the wing of the other cherub.
Sus alas extendidas tenían veinte codos de ancho; Un ala, de cinco codos de largo, tocando la pared de la casa, y la otra, del mismo tamaño, que se encuentra con el ala del otro querubín.
12 In like manner the wing of the other cherub, was five cubits long, and reached to the wall: and his other wing was five cubits long, and touched the wing of the other cherub.
Y de la misma manera, las alas de la otra, de cinco codos de largo, se estiraron, una tocando la pared y la otra encontrándose con el ala del primer querubín.
13 So the wings of the two cherubims were spread forth, and were extended twenty cubits: and they stood upright on their feet, and their faces were turned toward the house without.
Sus alas extendidas tenían veinte codos de ancho; se colocaron en posición vertical sobre sus pies, frente a la parte interior de la casa.
14 He made also a veil of violet, purple, scarlet, and silk: and wrought in it cherubims.
E hizo el velo de azul, púrpura y rojo, del mejor lino, con bordados de querubines.
15 He made also before the doors of the temple two pillars, which were five and thirty cubits high: and their chapiters were five cubits.
Y delante de la casa hizo dos pilares, treinta y cinco codos de alto, con coronas en la parte superior de ellos, cinco codos de alto.
16 He made also as it were little chains in the oracle, and he put them on the heads of the pillars: and a hundred pomegranates, which he put between the little chains.
E hizo cadenas, como adornos para las columnas, y las puso en la parte superior de los pilares, y un centenar de granadas en las cadenas.
17 These pillars he put at the entrance of the temple, one on the right hand, and the other on the left: that which was on the right hand, he called Jachin: and that on the left hand, Boot.
Puso los pilares frente al Templo, uno en el lado derecho y otro en el izquierdo, nombrando el de Jaquin a la derecha y el de Boaz a la izquierda.
