2 Chronicles 4
1 He made also an altar of brass twenty cubits long, and twenty cubits broad, and ten cubits high.
Han gjorde og et Kobberalter; tyve Alen var dets Længde og tyve Alen dets Bredde og ti Alen dets Højde.
2 Also a molten sea of ten cubits from brim to brim, round in compass: it was five cubits high, and a line of thirty cubits compassed it round about.
Tilmed gjorde han et støbt Hav; det var ti Alen fra den ene Rand til den anden Rand; det var rundt trindt omkring, og fem Alen var dets Højde, og en Snor, tredive Alen lang, gik om det trindt omkring.
3 And under it there was the likeness of oxen, and certain engravings on the outside of ten cubits compassed the belly of the sea, as it were with two rows.
Og under det var trindt omkring Billeder af Okser, som omgave det, ti paa en Alen, og de omringede Havet trindt omkring; i to Rader vare Okserne, støbte i een Støbning med det selv.
4 And the oxen were cast: and the sea itself was set upon the twelve oxen, three of which looked toward the north, and other three toward the west: and other three toward the south, and the other three that remained toward the east, and the sea stood upon them: and the hinder parts of the oxen were inward under the sea.
Det stod paa tolv Okser, tre vare vendte imod Norden, og tre vare vendte imod Vesten, og tre vare vendte imod Sønden, og tre vare vendte imod Østen, og Havet stod oven paa dem; og deres Bagdele vare alle vendte indad.
5 Now the thickness of it was a handbreadth, and the brim of it was like the brim of a cup, or of a crisped lily: and it held three thousand measures.
Og Tykkelsen derpaa var en Haandbred, og Randen derpaa var gjort som Randen paa et Bæger, ligesom et Lillieblomster; det holdt Bath, tre Tusinde rummede det.
6 He made also ten lavers: and he see five on the right hand, and five on the left, to wash in them all such things as they mere to offer for holocausts: but the sea was for the priests to wash in.
Og han gjorde ti Kedler og satte fem paa den højre Side og fem paa den venstre Side til at to sig i dem; Brændofferet, som tillavedes, afskyllede de i dem; men Havet var for Præsterne til at to sig i.
7 And he made ten golden candlesticks, according to the form which they were commanded to be made by: and he set them in the temple, five on the right hand, and five on the left.
Og han gjorde ti Lysestager af Guld efter deres Bestemmelse; og han satte dem i Templet, fem paa den højre Side og fem paa den venstre Side.
8 Moreover also ten tables: and he set them in the temple, five on the right side, and five on the left. Also a hundred bowls of gold.
Og han gjorde ti Borde og satte dem i Templet, fem paa den højre og fem paa den venstre Side; og han gjorde hundrede Skaaler af Guld.
9 He made also the court of the priests, and a great hall, and doors in the hall, which he covered with brass.
Han gjorde og en Forgaard for Præsterne og en stor Gaard og Døre paa Gaarden og beslog dens Fløje med Kobber.
10 And he set the sea on the right side over against the east toward the south.
Og han satte Havet ved det højre Hjørne imod Sydøst.
11 And Hiram made caldrons, and fleshhooks, and bowls: and finished all the king’s work in the house of God:
Tilmed gjorde Huram Gryder og Ildskuffer og Skaaler. Saa blev Huram færdig med at gøre Gerningen, som han udførte for Kong Salomo ved Guds Hus:
12 That is to say, the two pillars, and the pommels, and the chapiters, and the network, to cover the chapiters over the pommels.
De to Støtter med runde Kroner oven paa de to Støtter, og tvende Net til at dække begge de runde Kroner, som vare oven paa Støtterne,
13 And four hundred pomegranates, and two wreaths of network, so that two rows of pomegranates were joined to each wreath, to cover the pommels, and the chapiters of the pillars.
og de fire Hundrede Granatæbler til de to Net, to Rader Granatæbler til ethvert Net for at dække de tvende runde Kroner, som vare oven over Støtterne.
14 He made also bases, and lavers, which he set upon the bases:
Og han gjorde Stolene og gjorde Kedlerne paa Stolene;
15 One sea, and twelve oxen under the sea;
det ene Hav og de tolv Okser derunder;
16 And the caldrons, and fleshhooks, and bowls. All the vessels did Hiram his father make for Solomon in the house of the Lord of the finest brass.
ogsaa Gryderne og Ildskufferne og Madkrogene og samtlige Redskaber dertil gjorde Huram-Abi for Kong Salomo til Herrens Hus af poleret Kobber.
17 In the country near the Jordan did the king cast them, in a clay ground between Sochot and Saredatha.
Paa Jordanens Slette lod Kongen dem støbe i den faste Jord, imellem Sukot og Zeredatha.
18 And the multitude of vessels was innumerable, so that the weight of the brass was not known.
Og Salomo gjorde alle disse Redskaber i stor Mangfoldighed, saa at Kobberets Vægt ikke blev undersøgt.
19 And Solomon made all the vessels for the house of God, and the golden altar, and the tables, upon which were the leaves of proposition,
Og Salomo lod gøre alle Redskaberne, som hørte til Guds Hus, og Guldalteret og Bordene til Skuebrødene
20 The candlesticks also of most pure gold with their lamps to give light before the oracle, according to the manner.
og Lysestagerne med deres Lamper af fint Guld for at tænde dem, som Skik var, lige for Koret
21 And certain flowers, and lamps, and golden tongs: all were made of the finest gold.
og Blomsterne og Lamperne og Lysesaksene af Guld, det var af det fineste Guld,
22 The vessels also for the perfumes, and the censers, and the bowls, and the mortars, of pure gold. And he graved the doors of the inner temple, that is, for the holy of holies: and the doors of the temple without were of gold. And thus all the work was finished which Solomon made in the house of the Lord.
og Knivene og Skaalerne og Røgelseskaalerne og Ildkarrene af fint Guld; og hvad Indgangen til Huset angaar, da vare dens inderste Døre til det Allerhelligste og Dørene til Templets Hus af Guld.
