1 Kings 6
1 Four hundred and eighty years after the Israelites left Egypt, in the fourth year of King Solomon's reign, in the month of Ziv, Solomon began building the Temple of the Lord.
Lè sa a te gen katsankatreven (480) lanne depi pèp Izrayèl la te soti kite peyi Lejip, Salomon te gen katran depi li t'ap gouvènen pèp Izrayèl la. Nan mwa Ziv la, ki dezyèm mwa nan kalandriye jwif yo, Salomon mete men nan bati kay Seyè a.
2 The Temple King Solomon built for the Lord measured sixty cubits long by twenty cubits wide by thirty cubits high.
Kay wa Salomon bati pou Seyè a te gen katrevendis pye longè, trant pye lajè ak karantsenk pye wotè.
3 The entrance room at the front of the Temple was twenty cubits wide. It ran the whole width of the Temple and projected out ten cubits in front of the Temple.
Premye pyès devan an te gen kenz pye longè, trant pye lajè. Li te menm lajè ak kay la.
4 He had latticed windows made to be placed high up in the Temple.
Miray tanp lan te gen fennèt ak griyaj bare yo.
5 He also had a structure built against the outer wall of the Temple, both the outer and the inner sanctuary, to provide a series of side rooms.
Kole kole ak miray yo, sou de sou kote yo ak sou dèyè Tanp lan ak pyès dèyè a, li fè bati twa ran pyès, yonn sou lòt. Chak etaj te gen sèt pye edmi wotè.
6 The ground floor measured five cubits wide, the first floor six cubits, and the second floor seven cubits. In addition he had offset ledges placed all the way around the outside, so that beams would not have to be inserted into the Temple walls.
Chak pyès nan dènye etaj anba a te gen sèt pye edmi lajè. Pyès nan etaj mitan an te gen nèf pye lajè ak pyès nan etaj anwo nèt la te gen dis pye edmi. Miray tanp lan menm te pi laj anba pase anwo. Konsa, gwo travès plafon yo te chita sou miray yo san yo pa t' bezwen fouye twou ladan yo.
7 When the Temple was built the stones were finished at the quarry so that no noise from any hammer, ax, or any iron tool was heard in the Temple during construction.
Wòch yo te sèvi pou bati Tanp lan te pare depi nan min wòch kote yo te jwenn yo a. Konsa, pandan yo t'ap bati Tanp lan pa t' gen ankenn bri mato, bri sizo, ni bri ankenn zouti fè.
8 The entrance to the ground floor was on the south side of the Temple. Stairs led to the first floor, and then on to the second floor.
Pòt pou antre nan premye chanm anba yo te bay sou bò sid Tanp lan. Te gen eskalye pou moute nan premye ak nan dezyèm etaj yo.
9 So Solomon finished building the Temple, covering it with a roof made of cedar rafters and planks.
Lè Salomon fin bati Tanp lan, li mete yon plafon fèt ak travès ak planch sèd.
10 He built the external structure along the whole of the Temple. It was five cubits high, joined to the Temple with cedar joists.
Li bati pyès chanm yo tout arebò tanp lan. Chak etaj te gen sèt pye edmi wotè. Yo te kole kole ak miray kay la. Yo te mare sou miray la ak travès sèd.
11 The Lord sent this message to Solomon, telling him,
Seyè a pale ak Salomon, li di l' konsa:
12 “About this Temple you are building: if you follow what I have said, fulfilling my requirements and keeping my commandments in what you do, I will keep the promise I made to your father David through you.
-Lè w'a fin bati tanp lan, si ou mache dapre lòd mwen, si ou fè sa m' di ou fè, si ou kenbe tout kòmandman mwen yo, m'a fè pou ou tou sa mwen te pwomèt David, papa ou.
13 I will live among the Israelites and will not abandon Israel, my people.”
M'ap rete nan mitan peyi Izrayèl la, mwen p'ap janm lage yo.
14 Solomon finished building the Temple.
Se konsa Salomon fin bati Tanp lan.
15 He lined the walls with cedar panels from floor to ceiling and he covered the floor of the Temple with cypress boards.
Tout miray yo te plake sou anndan ak planch sèd depi planche a rive nan plafon an. Planche a te fèt ak bwa pichpen.
16 He sectioned off twenty cubits at the rear of the Temple with boards of cedar from floor to ceiling, making an inner sanctuary as the Most Holy Place.
Li bati sou dèyè tanp lan yon gwo pyès li rele Pyès ki apa nèt pou Seyè a. Pyès la te gen trant pye longè. Panno pyès la fèt ak planch sèd ki soti depi atè rive nan plafon an.
17 The main Temple in front of this room measured forty cubits long.
Pati tanp lan ki te devan pyès ki apa nèt pou Seyè a te gen swasant pye longè.
18 The cedar panels inside the Temple were decorated with carvings of gourds and open flowers. Everything was lined with cedar—none of the stone was visible.
Sou anndan, tout miray tanp lan te kouvri ak planch sèd, ou pa t' ka wè yon wòch. Planch sèd yo te travay ak desen flè ak ti kalbas sou tout kò yo.
19 He also had the inner sanctuary made within the Temple where the Ark of the Lord's Agreement would be placed.
Anndan Tanp lan, sou dèyè, li bati yon pyès apa pou Seyè a. Se la yo te mete Bwat Kontra Seyè a.
20 The inner sanctuary measured twenty cubits long, twenty cubits wide, and twenty cubits high. He had the interior covered with a coating with pure gold, as well as the altar of cedar.
Pyès la te gen trant pye longè, trant pye lajè ak trant pye wotè. Li te kouvri nèt ak lò. Sou devan pyès la yo bati yon lotèl ak bwa sèd, lèfini yo te kouvri li nèt ak lò.
21 Solomon had the whole of the inside of the Temple covered with pure gold, He had gold chains stretched across the front of the inner sanctuary, which was also covered with gold.
Tout miray anndan tanp lan te kouvri ak lò. Pyès apa nèt pou Seyè a te kouvri ak lò tou. Yo fè chenn lò pou fèmen pòt pyès ki apa pou Seyè a.
22 He covered the whole inside of the Temple with a coating of gold until it was all finished. He also covered with gold the entire altar for the inner sanctuary.
Konsa, tout anndan Tanp lan nèt ansanm ak lotèl ki te devan pyès ki apa pou Seyè a te kouvri nèt ak lò.
23 He had two cherubim made out of olive wood for the inner sanctuary, each one ten cubits tall.
Apre sa, li fè fè de estati zanj cheriben yo an bwa oliv pou pyès ki apa nèt pou Seyè a. Chak estati te gen kenz pye wotè.
24 Both wings of the cherub measured five cubits, making a total wingspan of ten cubits.
Chak zèl te mezire sèt pye edmi longè. Konsa, depi pwent yon zèl rive nan pwent lòt zèl la te gen kenz pye.
25 The other cherub was also ten cubits tall, since they were identical both in size and shape.
Tou de estati yo te gen menm fòm, menm gwosè.
26 Both cherubs were ten cubits tall.
Tou de te menm wotè, yo te gen kenz pye wotè.
27 He had the cherubim placed inside the inner sanctuary of the Temple. Since their wings were fully spread, a wing of the first cherub touched one wall, a wing of the second cherub touched the other wall, and in the middle of the Temple their wings touched.
Salomon fè mete de estati yo anndan pyès ki apa pou Seyè a, kòtakòt, ak zèl yo louvri pou pwent zèl anndan yo touche yonn ak lòt nan mitan pyès la, de pwent zèl deyò yo touche ak de miray sou kote yo.
28 The cherubim were also covered with a gold coating.
De estati ak zèl yo te kouvri nèt ak lò.
29 He had all the Temple walls, both the inner and outer sanctuaries, carved with designs of cherubim, palm trees, and open flowers.
Sou tout miray anndan tanp lan te gen pòtre zanj cheriben, pòtre pye palmis ak pòtre flè yo te travay nan bwa a.
30 He also had the floor of the Temple floor covered with gold, both the inner and outer sanctuaries.
Menm planche a te kouvri ak lò anndan kou deyò.
31 He had doors of olive wood made for the entrance to the inner sanctuary, together with a lintel and doorposts that had five sides.
Salomon fè mete yon pòt de batan fèt ak bwa oliv pou fèmen pyès apa pou Seyè a. Lento pòt la ak de montan yo te pran yon senkyèm nan ouvèti pòt la.
32 These olive wood double doors had carved into them designs of cherubim, palm trees, and open flowers. The cherubim and palm trees carvings were covered with beaten gold.
Batan pòt yo te dekore ak pòtre zanj cheriben, pye palmis ak flè yo te travay nan bwa a. Tout pòt la ansanm ak pòtre yo te kouvri nèt ak lò.
33 Similarly he had four-sided doorposts of olive wood made for the entrance to the sanctuary.
Pòt pyès mitan Tanp lan te gen yon ankadreman fèt ak bwa oliv ki te pran yon ka nan ouvèti pòt la.
34 Its doors were made of cypress wood, each with two hinged panels.
Pòt la menm te fèt an pichpen. Li te gen kat batan, de batan chak bò ki ka fèmen yonn sou lòt.
35 He had them carved with designs of cherubim, palm trees, and open flowers, and covered them with gold beaten evenly over the carvings.
Batan pòt yo te dekore ak pòtre zanj cheriben, pye palmis ak flè yo te travay sou bwa a. Tout pòt la ansanm ak pòtre yo te kouvri nèt ak lò.
36 Solomon had the inner courtyard built with three courses of dressed stone and one of cedar beams.
Li fè bati yon lakou fèmen devan Tanp lan. Miray lakou a te fèt ak yon ranje madriye sèd pou chak twa ranje wòch yonn sou lòt.
37 The foundation of the Lord's Temple was laid in the fourth year of Solomon's reign, in the month of Ziv.
Se nan katriyèm lanne rèy Salomon, nan mwa Ziv la, yo te mete men nan fondasyon kay Seyè a.
38 The Temple was finished exactly as specified and planned in Solomon's eleventh year, in the eighth month, the month of Bul. So it took him seven years to build the Temple.
Tanp lan te fin bati ak tout ti detay li yo, jan yo te fè plan an, nan onzyèm lanne rèy Salomon nan wityèm mwa kalandriye jwif yo, ki rele Boul. Salomon te pran sètan pou l' bati Tanp lan.
