< 2 Chronicles 3 >
1 Then Solomon began building the Temple of the Lord in Jerusalem on Mount Moriah, where the Lord appeared to his father David. This was the place that David had provided—the former threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Solomoni akĩambĩrĩria gwaka hekarũ ya Jehova kũu Jerusalemu Kĩrĩma-inĩ kĩa Moria, harĩa Jehova oimĩrĩire ithe Daudi. Hau nĩho kĩhuhĩro-inĩ kĩa ngano kĩa Arauna ũrĩa Mũjebusi, handũ harĩa Daudi aaheanĩte hekarũ ĩgaakwo.
2 Solomon began construction on the second day of the second month in his fourth year as king.
Aambĩrĩirie gwaka mũthenya wa ĩĩrĩ wa mweri wa keerĩ, mwaka wa ĩna wa ũthamaki wake.
3 The size of the foundation Solomon laid for the Temple of God was sixty cubits long and twenty cubits wide, (according to the old cubit measurement).
Mũthingi ũrĩa Solomoni eenjire nĩ ũndũ wa gwaka hekarũ ya Ngai warĩ mĩkono mĩrongo ĩtandatũ kũraiha na mĩkono mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ kwarama, gũgĩtũmĩrwo mĩkono ya gĩthimo gĩa tene.
4 The front porch that ran across the width of the Temple was twenty cubits long and twenty cubits high. He covered the inside of the porch with pure gold.
Nakĩo gĩthaku kĩrĩa kĩarĩ hau mbere ya hekarũ kĩarĩ kĩa mĩkono mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ kũraiha, gĩkĩranĩtie wariĩ wa nyũmba ĩyo, na mĩkono mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ kũraiha na igũrũ. Mwena wa thĩinĩ wakĩo akĩũgemia na thahabu ĩrĩa therie.
5 He paneled the main room with cypress overlaid with fine gold, with images of palm trees and chains.
Akĩhũũrĩra nyũmba ĩrĩa nene mbaũ cia mĩthengera na agĩcihumbĩra na thahabu ĩrĩa njega mũno, na akĩmĩgemia na mĩcoro ya mĩkĩndũ na mĩcoro ya irengeeri.
6 He decorated the Temple with beautiful gems, and with gold he imported from Parvaim.
Aagemirie hekarũ na tũhiga twa goro. Nayo thahabu ĩrĩa aahũthĩrire yarĩ thahabu ya Paravaimu.
7 He covered the beams, thresholds, walls, and doors of the Temple with gold, and he carved cherubim on the walls.
Nacio mbaũ cia mĩratho, na buremu cia mĩrango, na thingo, na mĩrango ya hekarũ, agĩcigemia na thahabu, na agĩkururithia mĩhiano ya makerubi thingo-inĩ.
8 He made the room of the Most Holy Place to correspond with the width of the Temple—twenty cubits long and twenty cubits wide. He covered the interior with six hundred talents of fine gold.
Ningĩ Solomoni agĩaka Handũ-harĩa-Hatheru-Mũno, ũraihu waho waringaine na wariĩ wa hekarũ, mĩkono mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ kũraiha na mĩkono mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ kwarama. Akĩgemia thĩinĩ waho na taranda 600 cia thahabu ĩrĩa njega mũno.
9 The weight of the nails was one shekel for every fifty shekels of gold.
Ũritũ wa mĩcumarĩ ya thahabu warĩ wa cekeri mĩrongo ĩtano. Ningĩ agĩcooka akĩgemia mĩena ya na igũrũ ya hau Hatheru-Mũno na thahabu.
10 He made for the Most Holy Place two wooden cherubim covered with gold.
Thĩinĩ wa Handũ-harĩa-Hatheru-Mũno nĩakururithirie makerubi meerĩ na akĩmagemia na thahabu.
11 The wingspan of the cherubim together was twenty cubits. One wing of the first cherub was five cubits long and touched one Temple wall, while its other wing, also five cubits long, and touched the second cherub.
Ũraihu wa mathagu ma makerubi wothe warĩ mĩkono mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ. Ithagu rĩmwe rĩa ikerubi rĩa mbere rĩarĩ rĩa mĩkono ĩtano kũraiha na rĩkahutia rũthingo rwa hekarũ, narĩo ithagu rĩu rĩngĩ o narĩo rĩarĩ rĩa mĩkono ĩtano kũraiha na rĩkahutia ithagu rĩa ikerubi rĩu rĩngĩ.
12 In similar fashion, one wing of the second cherub was five cubits long and touched one Temple wall, while its other wing, also five cubits long, and touched the first cherub.
O narĩo ithagu rĩmwe rĩa ikerubi rĩa keerĩ rĩarĩ na ũraihu wa mĩkono ĩtano na rĩkahutia rũthingo rũu rũngĩ rwa hekarũ, na ithagu rĩu rĩngĩ rĩarĩo o narĩo rĩarĩ na ũraihu wa mĩkono ĩtano na rĩkahutia ithagu rĩa ikerubi rĩa mbere.
13 So the wingspan of these cherubim together was twenty cubits. They stood on their feet, facing the main room.
Mathagu ma makerubi maya maarĩ na ũraihu wa mĩkono mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ. Maicũhĩtio marũgamĩte na magũrũ, na mangʼetheire nyũmba nene.
14 He made the veil of blue, purple, and crimson embroidery on fine linen, with images of cherubim on it.
Solomoni nĩathondekire gĩtambaya gĩa gũcuurio kĩa ndigi cia rangi wa bururu, na cia rangi wa ndathi na cia rangi mũtune ta gakarakũ na gĩa gatani ĩrĩa njega, na mĩhiano ya makerubi nĩyatumĩrĩirwo gĩtambaya-inĩ kĩu.
15 He made two columns for the front of the Temple, thirty-five cubits, each having a capital five cubits high.
Mwena wa mbere wa hekarũ agĩaka itugĩ igĩrĩ, na cierĩ ciarĩ na ũraihu wa mĩkono mĩrongo ĩtatũ na ĩtano; o gĩtugĩ kĩarĩ na kĩongo igũrũ rĩakĩo kĩa mũigana wa mĩkono ĩtano.
16 He made chains like in the Most Holy Place and he placed them on top of the columns. He also made one hundred ornamental pomegranates and attached them to each chain.
Nĩathondekire irengeeri igathĩkanĩtio, na agĩciigĩrĩra igũrũ rĩa itugĩ icio. Ningĩ nĩathondekire mĩhiano igana rĩmwe ya matunda ma makomamanga na akĩmĩnyiitithania na irengeeri icio ciagathĩkanĩtio.
17 He set up the columns in front of the Temple, one on the south, and one on the north. The column on the south he named Jachin, and the column on the north he named Boaz.
Aakire itugĩ icio mwena wa mbere wa hekarũ, kĩmwe mwena wa gũthini, na kĩrĩa kĩngĩ mwena wa gathigathini. Kĩa mwena wa gũthini agĩgĩĩta Jakini, na kĩa mwena wa gathigathini agĩgĩĩta Boazu.
