< 1 Kings 7 >

1 However, it took Solomon thirteen years to finish building the whole of his palace.
Salomon te bati yon palè pou li menm tou. Li pran trèzan pou l' fini l'.
2 He built the House of the Forest of Lebanon— a hundred cubits long, fifty cubits wide, and thirty cubits high. There were four rows of cedar pillars that supported cedar beams.
Li bati yon kay yo rele Rakbwa peyi Liban an. Li te gen sansenkant (150) pye longè, swasannkenz pye lajè ak karannsenk pye wotè. Li te gen kat ranje gwo poto bwa sèd. Chak ranje te gen kenz poto ak gwo travès sèd chita sou tèt poto yo.
3 The cedar roof of the house was on top of the beams that rested on the pillars. There were forty-five beams, fifteen in each row.
Plafon an te fèt an planch sèd. Li te kloure sou karannsenk travès ki te chita sou tèt poto yo.
4 The windows were placed high up, in three rows facing each other.
Nan de miray sou kote yo, te gen twa ranje fennèt. Fennèt yo te bay yonn sou lòt.
5 All the doorways and door casings had rectangular frames, the openings facing each other in sets of three.
Pòt yo ak fennèt yo te kare kare. Te gen twa ranje fennèt sou chak bò, yonn an fas lòt.
6 He also had the Hall of Columns made—forty cubits long and thirty cubits wide. It had a porch in front, its canopy also supported by columns.
Li bati yon lòt gwo pyès yo rele Chanm Poto yo. Li te gen swasannkenz pye longè, karannsenk pye lajè. Te gen yon lòt ti pyès sou devan l' avèk gwo poto ak dòmant.
7 The throne room where he sat as judge was called the Hall of Justice, lined with cedar panels from floor to ceiling.
Yo bati yon lòt kay yo rele Chanm Fotèy la ou ankò Salon Jijman an. Se la Salomon te konn rann jijman. Miray yo te kouvri ak bwa sèd depi anba rive nan plafon an.
8 Solomon's own palace where he lived was in a courtyard behind the porch, made in a similar way to the Temple. He also had a palace made for Pharaoh's daughter, whom he'd married.
Kay kote Salomon te rete a te nan yon lòt lakou dèyè Salon Jijman an. Li te bati tankou lòt kay yo. Salomon bati yon lòt kay menm jan an tou pou madanm li, pitit fi wa peyi Lejip la.
9 All these buildings were built using stone blocks that were expensive to produce. They were cut to size and trimmed with saws on the inside and outside. These stones were used from the foundation to the eaves, from the outside of the building all the way to the great courtyard.
Tout kay sa yo te bati ak bèl wòch taye, depi nan fondasyon yo jouk anba twati yo. Wòch yo te pare depi nan min wòch la. Yo te taye sou mezi. Fasad anndan ak fasad deyò wòch yo te taye ak si.
10 The foundations were laid with very large top-quality stones, between eight and ten cubits long.
Fondasyon yo te fèt ak gwo wòch yo te taye nan min wòch la. Genyen ladan yo ki te gen douz pye longè.
11 On these were placed top-quality stones, cut to size, along with cedar timber.
Anwo fondasyon an te gen menm kalite wòch taye sou mezi ak madriye sèd.
12 Around the great courtyard, the inner courtyard, and the porch of the Lord's Temple were three courses of dressed stone and a course of cedar beams.
Gwo lakou palè a te fèmen ak yon miray fèt ak twa ranje wòch pou chak ranje madriye sèd, tankou lakou anndan ak lakou devan Tanp lan.
13 King Solomon sent for Hiram from Tyre.
Wa Salomon voye chache yon bòs ki te rele Iram tou. Se te yon moun lavil Tir.
14 He was the son of a widow from the tribe of Naphtali, and his father was from Tyre, a craftsman who worked in bronze. Hiram had great expertise, understanding and being familiar with all kinds of bronze work. He came to King Solomon and carried out all that the king required.
Papa Iram te moun lavil Tir tou. Se te yon bòs fò nan travay kwiv. Manman li te moun nan branch fanmi Neftali a. Se te yon vèv. Iram te yon moun ki te gen anpil ladrès, anpil konesans ak bon konprann pou fè tout kalite bagay an kwiv. Se konsa li te vin kay wa a, li fè tout travay li yo.
15 He cast two columns in bronze. They were both eighteen cubits high and twelve cubits in circumference.
Iram koule de gwo poto kwiv won yo. Yo chak te gen vennsèt pye wotè. Wonn poto yo te mezire dizwit pye. Li mete yo kanpe devan Tanp lan.
16 He also cast two capitals in bronze to place on top of the columns. Each capital was five cubits high.
Apre sa, li fè fè blòk kwiv tou pou ale sou tèt poto yo. Yo chak te mezire sèt pye edmi wotè.
17 He made a network of lattice of interlinked chains for both capitals, seven for each one.
Li dekore wonn tèt poto yo ak desen ti chenn makònen yonn ak lòt. Te gen sèt desen konsa pou chak tèt poto.
18 Around the lattice network he made two rows of ornamental pomegranates to cover the capitals on the top of both the columns.
Li mete de ranje grenad an kwiv anwo ak anba desen ti chenn lan sou tout wonn chak tèt poto yo.
19 The capitals placed on top of columns in the porch were in the shape of lilies, four cubits high.
Tèt poto ki nan gwo lakou devan an te gen fòm yon flè choublak. Yo chak te gen sis pye wotè.
20 On the capitals of both columns were the two hundred pomegranates in rows that encircled them, just above the rounded part that was next to the chain network.
Sou rebò anwo chak tèt poto yo, te gen yon vant resoti ki te anwo desen ti chenn yo, ak desan pòtre grenad sou de ranje ki te fè wonn chak poto yo.
21 He erected the columns at the entrance porch of the Temple. The southern column he named Jachin, and the northern column he named Boaz.
Iram mete poto yo kanpe devan pòt antre Tanp lan, yonn sou bò dwat, yonn sou bò gòch. Li rele sa ki sou bò dwat la Jaken, sa ki sou bò gòch la Boaz.
22 The capitals on the columns were in the shape of lilies. And so the work on the columns was finished.
Sou tèt chak poto te gen yon blòk an fòm yon flè. Se konsa Iram fini ak travay poto yo.
23 Then he made the Sea of cast metal. Its shape was circular, and measured ten cubits from edge to edge, five cubits in height, and thirty cubits in circumference.
Apre sa, Iram fè yon gwo basen an kwiv tou won. Li te mezire kenz pye lajè anndan anndan ak sèt pye edmi fondè. Wonn li te mezire karannsenk pye.
24 Below the edge it was decorated with ornamental gourds that encircled it, ten per cubit all the way around. They were in two rows cast as one piece with the Sea.
Sou tout wonn basen lan, sou deyò, te gen de ranje ti kalbas an kwiv, ti kras anba rebò a. Te gen dis kalbas pou chak pye edmi longè. Yo te fè yon sèl kò ak basen lan, yo te koule yo ansanm lè yo t'ap fè basen lan.
25 The Sea stood on twelve metal bulls. Three faced to the north, three to the west, three to the south, and three to the east. The Sea was placed on them, with their rears toward the center.
Basen lan te chita sou do douz towo bèf an kwiv. Fas towo yo tout bay sou deyò: fas twa bay sou solèy leve, fas twa bay sou bò nò, fas twa bay sou solèy kouche, ak fas twa bay sou bò sid. Dèyè yo te anba basen lan.
26 It was as thick as the width of a hand, and its edge was like the flared edge of a cup or a lily flower. It held two thousand baths.
Rebò basen lan te gen twa pous epesè. Rebò a te tankou rebò yon tas, li fè yon ti vire sou deyò tankou yon flè. Basen lan te ka kenbe dimil galon konsa.
27 He also made ten carts to carry basins. The carts measured four cubits long, four cubits wide, and three cubits high.
Iram te fè tou dis kabwa an kwiv. Yo chak te gen sis pye longè, sis pye lajè ak kat pye edmi wotè.
28 This is how they were put together: side panels were attached to uprights.
Yo te fèt an ti panno kare kare ki te moute nan yon ankadreman.
29 Both the side panels and the uprights were decorated with lions, bulls, and cherubim. Above and below the lions and the bulls were decorative wreaths.
Sou chak ti panno yo, te gen pòtre lyon, pòtre towo ak pòtre zanj cheriben. Sou rebò yo, anwo ak anba lyon yo ak towo yo, te gen yon ranje flè resoti.
30 Each cart had four bronze wheels with bronze axles. A basin rested on four supports that had decorative wreaths on each side.
Chak kabwa te gen kat wou an kwiv ak lesye an kwiv tou. Nan kat kwen yo te gen yon zepòlman, antou kat pou kenbe basen lan anplas. Zepòlman yo te dekore ak yon ranje flè chak bò.
31 At the top of each cart was a round opening like a pedestal to hold the basin. The opening was one cubit deep, and one and a half cubits wide. The opening had carvings around it. The panels of the cart were square, not round.
Anwo chak kabwa te gen yon ankadreman tou won pou basen yo. Ankadreman an te gen dizwit pous lajè anndan anndan. Li te gen desen sou tout kò l'. Pati anwo kabwa a te kare, li pa t' won.
32 The four wheels were under the panels, and the axles of the wheels were attached to the cart. Each wheel measured one and a half cubits in diameter.
Wou yo te gen vennsenk pous wotè. Yo te anba panno yo. Lesye wou yo te fè yon sèl pyès ak rès kabwa a.
33 The wheels were made in the same way as chariot wheels; their axles, rims, spokes, and hubs were all made by casting.
Wou yo te tankou wou cha lagè. Pen yo, jant yo, reyon yo, lesye yo, tout te fèt an kwiv.
34 Each cart had four handles, one on each corner, made as part of the stand.
Kat zepòlman ki te nan kwen anba chak kabwa yo te fè yon sèl pyès ak chasi kabwa a.
35 There was a ring on the top of the cart a half cubit wide. The supports and panels were cast as one piece with the top of the cart.
Pati plat anwo kabwa a te dekore ak yon wonn nèf pous wotè ki te fè rebò ouvèti a. Zepòlman ki te nan kwen anwo yo ak panno yo te fè yon sèl pyès ak kabwa a.
36 He had designs of cherubim, lions, and palm trees engraved on the panels, supports, and frame, wherever there was space, with decorative wreaths all around.
Yo te dekore panno yo ak zepòlman yo ak pòtre zanj cheriben, pòtre lyon ak pòtre pye palmis, tout kote yo te jwenn yon ti espas, ak flè sou tout wonn lan.
37 This is how he made the ten carts, with the same casts, size, and shape.
Se konsa Iram te fè dis kabwa yo. Yo tout te fèt menm jan, menm fòm, menm gwosè.
38 Then he made ten bronze basins. Each one held forty baths and measured four cubits across, one basin for each of the ten carts.
Iram te fè dis basen tou, yonn pou chak kabwa. Chak basen te mezire sis pye lajè. Yo chak te kenbe desan galon konsa.
39 He placed five carts on the south side of the Temple and five on the north side. He placed the Sea on the south side, by the southeast corner of the Temple.
Li mete senk kabwa sou bò sid Tanp lan, lòt senk yo sou bò nò. Gwo basen kwiv la menm, li mete l' sou bò dwat Tanp lan nan kwen sidès la.
40 He also made the pots, shovels, and bowls. So Hiram finished making everything required by King Solomon for the Temple of the Lord:
Iram te fè plato pou sann, pèl ak kivèt. Se konsa li te fin fè tout travay Salomon te mande l' fè pou Tanp Seyè a.
41 the two columns; the two capitals shaped like bowls on top the columns; the two chain networks that covered the bowls of the capitals on top of the columns;
Men sa li te fè: de gwo poto won yo, de blòk yon ti jan pi gwo pou ale sou tèt poto yo,
42 the four hundred ornamental pomegranates for the chain networks (in two rows for the chain networks that covered the capitals on top of the columns);
katsan pòtre grenad ki pou ale sou de ran nan desen ti chenn ki fè wonn tèt poto yo,
43 the ten carts; the ten basins on the carts;
dis kabwa yo, dis basen ki pou ale sou kabwa yo,
44 the Sea; the twelve bulls under the Sea;
yon gwo basen tou won pou dlo, douz towo bèf pou soutni gwo basen lan,
45 and the pots, shovels, and bowls. Everything that Hiram made for King Solomon in the Temple of the Lord was made of polished bronze.
plato pou sann yo, pèl yo ak kivèt yo. Tou sa Iram te fè pou Tanp Seyè a te fèt an kwiv poli, dapre lòd li te resevwa nan men Salomon.
46 The king had them cast in molds made of clay in the Jordan valley between Succoth and Zarethan.
Wa a te fè fonn yo nan moul tè nan fon larivyè Jouden an, ant lavil Soukòt ak lavil Zaretan.
47 Solomon did not weigh anything that had been made because there was just so much—the weight of bronze used could not be measured.
Te sitèlman gen anpil bagay fèt an kwiv, Salomon pa t' chache konnen pèz yo.
48 Solomon also had made all the items for the Temple of the Lord: the golden altar; the golden table where the Bread of the Presence was placed;
Salomon te fè fè tout mèb yo te bezwen pou Tanp lan an lò: lotèl la, tab pou pen yo mete apa pou Bondye a,
49 the lampstands made of pure gold that stood in front of the inner sanctuary, five on the right and five on the left; the flowers, lamps, and tongs that were all made of pure gold;
dis lanp sèt branch pou ranje devan pyès yo mete apa nèt pou Seyè a, senk sou bò dwat, senk sou bò gòch, flè yo, ti lanp yo ak pensèt pou lanp sèt branch yo,
50 the basins, wick trimmers, bowls, ladles, and censers that again were all made of pure gold; and the gold hinges for the doors of the inner sanctuary, the Most Holy Place, in addition to the doors of the main hall of the Temple.
gode yo, kouto pou netwaye lanp yo, bòl yo, plato pou lansan yo, plato pou pote chabon dife tou limen yo, gon pou pòt pyès ki apa nèt pou Seyè a, ak gon pou lòt pòt tanp lan menm. Tout bagay sa yo te fèt ak bon lò.
51 In this way all King Solomon's work for the Temple of the Lord was completed. Then Solomon brought in the items his father David had dedicated, the special objects made of silver, the gold, and the Temple furnishings, and he placed them in the treasuries of the Temple of the Lord.
Lè wa Salomon te fin fè tout travay pou bati Tanp Seyè a, li fè yo pote tout ajan ak tout lò David, papa l', te ofri bay Seyè a ansanm ak tout lòt bagay li menm li te bay, li fè mete yo nan chanm trezò Tanp lan.
