2 Chronicles 4
1 Solomon made a bronze altar twenty cubits long, twenty cubits wide, and ten cubits high.
Fecit quoque altare æneum viginti cubitorum longitudinis, et viginti cubitorum latitudinis, et decem cubitorum altitudinis.
2 He made a “Sea” from cast metal, ten cubits in diameter, five cubits in height, and thirty cubits in circumference.
Mare etiam fusile decem cubitis a labio usque ad labium, rotundum per circuitum: quinque cubitos habebat altitudinis, et funiculus triginta cubitorum ambiebat gyrum eius.
3 Below it were ornamental bulls all around it, ten per cubit. They were in two rows when it was all cast.
Similitudo quoque boum erat subter illud, et decem cubitis quædam extrinsecus cælaturæ, quasi duobus versibus alvum maris circuibant. Boves autem erant fusiles:
4 The Sea was supported by twelve statues of bulls three facing north, three facing west, three facing south, and three facing east. The Sea was placed on them, with their rears toward the center.
et ipsum Mare super duodecim boves impositum erat, quorum tres respiciebant ad Aquilonem, et alii tres ad Occidentem: porro tres alii Meridiem, et tres qui reliqui erant, Oritentem, habentes mare superpositum: posteriora autem boum erant intrinsecus sub mari.
5 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 three thousand baths.
Porro vastitas eius habebat mensuram palmi, et labium illius erat quasi labium calicis, vel repandi lilii: capiebatque tria millia metretas.
6 He also made ten basins on carts for washing. He placed five on the south side, and five on the north. They were used for cleaning what was used in burnt offerings, but the Sea was used by the priests for washing.
Fecit quoque conchas decem: et posuit quinque a dextris, et quinque a sinistris, ut lavarent in eis omnia, quæ in holocaustum oblaturi erant: porro in mari sacerdotes lavabuntur.
7 He made ten gold lampstands as had been specified, and placed them in the Temple, five on the south side and five on the north.
Fecit autem et candelabra aurea decem secundum speciem, qua iussa erant fieri: et posuit ea in templo, quinque a dextris, et quinque a sinistris.
8 In addition he made ten tables and placed them in the Temple, five on the south side and five on the north. He also made a hundred gold basins.
Necnon et mensas decem: et posuit eas in templo, quinque a dextris, et quinque a sinistris: phialas quoque aureas centum.
9 Solomon also built a courtyard of the priests, and the large courtyard and doors for the courtyard, and he covered the doors with bronze.
Fecit etiam atrium sacerdotum, et basilicam grandem: et ostia in basilica, quæ texit ære.
10 He placed the Sea on the south side, by the southeast corner.
Porro mare posuit in latere dextro contra Orientem ad Meridiem.
11 Hiram also made the pots, shovels, and basins. Hiram completed the work that he had been doing for King Solomon on the Temple of God:
Fecit autem Hiram lebetes, et creagras, et phialas: et complevit omne opus regis in domo Dei:
12 the two columns; the two bowl-shaped capitals on top of the columns; the two sets of network that covered both bowls of the capitals on top of the columns;
hoc est, columnas duas, et epistylia, et capita, et quasi quædam retiacula, quæ capita tegerent super epistylia.
13 the four hundred ornamental pomegranates for the two sets of network—two rows of pomegranates for each network covering both the bowl-shaped capitals on top of the columns;
Malogranata quoque quadringenta, et retiacula duo ita ut bini ordines malogranatorum singulis retiaculis iungerentur, quæ protegerent epistylia, et capita columnarum.
14 the water carts and the basins on the water carts;
Bases etiam fecit, et conchas, quas superposuit basibus:
15 the Sea and the twelve bull statues that supported it; the pots, shovels, forks, and everything else.
mare unum, boves quoque duodecim sub mari.
16 All the metalwork Hiram made for King Solomon for the house of the Lord was of polished bronze.
Et lebetes, et creagras, et phialas. Omnia vasa fecit Salomoni Hiram pater eius in domo Domini ex ære mundissimo.
17 The king cast them in clay molds in the plain of the Jordan between Succoth and Zeredah.
In regione Iordanis fudit ea rex in argillosa terra inter Sochot, et Saredatha.
18 Solomon made so many of these things that the weight of the bronze used could not be measured.
Erat autem multitudo vasorum innumerabilis, ita ut ignoraretur pondus æris.
19 Solomon also made everything used in the Temple of God: the golden altar; the tables where the Bread of the Presence was displayed;
Fecitque Salomon omnia vasa domus Dei, et altare aureum, et mensas, et super eas panes propositionis:
20 the lampstands of pure gold and their lamps that were to burn in front of the Most Holy Place as specified;
candelabra quoque cum lucernis suis ut lucerent ante oraculum iuxta ritum ex auro purissimo:
21 the decorative flowers, lamps, and tongs—all made of solid gold;
et florentia quædam, et lucernas, et forcipes aureos: omnia de auro mundissimo facta sunt.
22 the wick trimmers, basins, dishes and censers—all made of gold; and the doors of the Temple: the inner doors to the Most Holy Place, and the doors of the main hall—all covered with gold.
Thymiateria quoque, et thuribula, et phialas, et mortariola ex auro purissimo. Et ostia cælavit templi interioris, id est, in Sancta sanctorum: et ostia templi forinsecus aurea. Sicque completum est omne opus, quod fecit Salomon in domo Domini.
