Kings III 7

1 And Solomon built a house for himself in thirteen years.

١ وَبَنَى سُلَيْمَانُ قَصْرَهُ فِي ثَلاثَ عَشْرَةَ سَنَةً،

2 And he built the house with the wood of Libanus; its length [was] a hundred cubits, and its breadth [was] fifty cubits, and its height [was] of thirty cubits, and [it was made] with three rows of cedar pillars, and the pillars had side-pieces of cedar.

٢ وَشَيَّدَ أَيْضاً قَصْراً عَامّاً دَعَاهُ قَصْرَ غَابَةِ لُبْنَانَ. وَكَانَ طُولُهُ مِئَةَ ذِرَاعٍ (نَحْوَ خَمْسِينَ مِتْراً) وَعَرْضُهُ خَمْسِينَ ذِرَاعاً (نَحْوَ خَمْسَةٍ وَعِشْرِينَ مِتْراً) وَارْتِفَاعُهُ ثَلاثِينَ ذِرَاعاً (نَحْوَ خَمْسَةَ عَشَرَ مِتْراً)، وَيَقُومُ عَلَى أَرْبَعَةِ صُفُوفٍ مِنْ أَعْمِدَةٍ مَصْنُوعَةٍ مِنْ خَشَبِ الأَرْزِ، تَرْتَكِزُ عَلَيْهَا عَوَارِضُ خَشَبِيَّةٌ مُنَسَّقَةٌ مِنْ خَشَبِ الأَرْزِ.

3 And he formed the house with chambers above on the sides of the pillars, and the number of the pillars [was each] row forty and five,

٣ وَامْتَدَّ سَقْفٌ مِنْ خَشَبِ الأَرْزِ فَوْقَ هَذِهِ الْعَوَارِضِ الْمُنَسَّقَةِ البَّالِغَةِ خَمْساً وَأَرْبَعِينَ عَارِضَةً، قَائِمَةً عَلَى الأَعْمِدَةِ، وَقَدْ نُسِّقَتْ فِي صُفُوفٍ ثَلاثَةٍ، يَتَأَلَّفُ كُلُّ صَفٍّ مِنْهَا مِنْ خَمْسَ عَشْرَةَ عَارِضَةً.

4 and [there were] three chambers, and space against space in three rows.

٤ وَتَتَكَوَّنُ السُّقُوفُ مِنْ ثَلاثِ طَبَقَاتٍ، لَهَا نَوَافِذُ مُتَقَابِلَةٌ فِي كُلِّ طَبَقَةٍ.

5 And all the doors and spaces formed like chambers [were] square, and from door to door [was a correspondence] in three rows.

٥ وَكَانَ لِكُلِّ الْمَدَاخِلِ وَالنَّوافِذِ إِطَارَاتٌ مُرَبَّعَةُ الشَّكْلِ، كَمَا تَقَابَلَتْ كُلُّ نَافِذَةٍ مَعَ نَافِذَةٍ أُخْرَى، مُنَسَّقَةً فِي ثَلاثَةِ صُفُوفٍ.

6 And [he made] the porch of the pillars, [they were] fifty [cubits] long and fifty broad, the porch joining them in front; and the [other] pillars and the thick beam [were] in front of the house by the porches.

٦ وَكَانَتْ هُنَاكَ قَاعَةٌ أُخْرَى اسْمُهَا «بَهْوُ الأَعْمِدَةِ» طُولُهَا خَمْسُونَ ذِرَاعاً (نَحْوَ خَمْسَةٍ وَعِشْرِينَ مِتْراً) وَعرْضُهَا ثَلاثُونَ ذِرَاعاً (نَحْوَ خَمْسَةَ عَشَرَ مِتْراً) كَمَا بَنَى أَمَامَهَا شُرْفَةً تَقُومُ عَلَى أَعْمِدَةٍ مَسْقُوفَةٍ.

7 And [there was] the Porch of seats where he would judge, the porch of judgment.

٧ وَكَذَلِكَ شَيَّدَ «قَاعَةَ الْعَرْشِ» أَوْ «بَهْوَ الْقَضَاءِ» وَغَشَّاهَا بِأَلْوَاحٍ مِنْ خَشَبِ الأَرْزِ مِنَ الأَرْضِ إِلَى السَّقْفِ.

8 And their house where he would dwell, [had] one court communicating with these according to this work; and [he built] the house for the daughter of Pharao whom Solomon had taken, according to this porch.

٨ أَمَّا بَيْتُهُ الَّذِي كَانَ يُقِيمُ فِيهِ فَكَانَ خَلْفَ «قَاعَةِ الْعَرْشِ» مُمَاثِلاً لَهَا فِي فَنِّ الْبِنَاءِ، كَمَا شَيَّدَ قَصْراً مُمَاثِلاً لِزَوْجَتِهِ ابْنَةِ فِرْعَوْنَ.

9 All these [were] of costly stones, sculptured at intervals within even from the foundation even to the top, and outward to the great court,

٩ وَقَدْ شُيِّدَتْ هَذِهِ جَمِيعاً مِنْ حِجَارَةٍ ضَخْمَةٍ رَفِيعَةِ الْمُسْتَوَى، قُطِعَتْ وَشُذِّبَتْ وُجُوهُهَا الدَّاخِلِيَّةُ وَالْخَارِجِيَّةُ بِمِنْشَارٍ وَفْقَ الْمَقَايِيسِ الْمَطْلُوبَةِ، وَاسْتُخْدِمَتْ مِنَ الأَسَاسِ إِلَى الإِفْرِيزِ وَمِنْ خَارِجٍ إِلَى الدَّارِ الْكَبِيرَةِ.

10 founded with large costly stones, stones of ten cubits and eight cubits [long].

١٠ وَكَانَتْ أَسَاسَاتُهَا مِنْ حِجَارَةٍ ضَخْمَةٍ رَفِيعَةِ الْمُسْتَوَى يَتَرَاوَحُ حَجْمُهَا مَا بَيْنَ ثَمَانِي إِلَى عَشْرِ أَذْرُعٍ (نَحْوِ أَرْبَعَةِ إِلَى خَمْسَةِ أَمْتَارٍ مُكَعَّبَةٍ).

11 And above with costly stones, according to the measure of hewn stones, and with cedars.

١١ أَمَّا حِجَارَةُ جُدْرَانِ الْبِنَاءِ فَقَدْ قُطِعَتْ بِحَسَبِ مَقَايِيسَ مُعَيَّنَةٍ، وَكُسِيَتْ بِأَلْوَاحٍ مِنْ خَشَبِ الأَرْزِ.

12 [There were] three rows of hewn [stones] round about the great hall, and a row of sculptured cedar.

١٢ وَتَكَوَّنَتْ جُدْرَانُ بَهْوِ الْقَضَاءِ مِنْ ثَلاثَةِ صُفُوفٍ مِنَ الْحِجَارَةِ الْمَنْحُوتَةِ وَصَفٍّ مِنْ عَوَارِضِ خَشَبِ الأَرْزِ، مُمَاثِلاً بِذَلِكَ رُوَاقَ بَيْتِ الرَّبِّ الدَّاخِلِيِّ وَبَهْوَ الْقَصْرِ.

13 And king Solomon sent, and took Chiram out of Tyre,

١٣ وَاسْتَدْعَى الْمَلِكُ سُلَيْمَانُ رَجُلاً مِنْ صُورٍ يُدْعَى حِيرَامَ.

14 the son of a widow woman; and he [was] of the tribe of Nephthalim, and his father [was] a Tyrian; a worker in brass, and accomplished in are and skill and knowledge to work every work in brass: and he was brought in to king Solomon, and he wrought all the works.

١٤ كَانَ ابْناً لأَرْمَلَةٍ مِنْ سِبْطِ نَفْتَالِي، أَمَّا أَبُوهُ الْمُتَوَفَّى فَكَانَ مِنْ صُورَ يَعْمَلُ نَحَّاساً، وَقَدْ بَرَعَ حِيرَامُ فِي مِهْنَتِهِ وَأَتْقَنَهَا، فَانْخَرَطَ فِي خِدْمَةِ سُلَيْمَانَ وَأَنْجَزَ الأَعْمَالَ الَّتِي عَهِدَ بِها إِلَيْهِ.

15 And he cast the two pillars for the porch of the house: eighteen cubits [was] the height of [each] pillar, and a circumference of fourteen cubits encompassed it, even the thickness of the pillar: the flutings [were] four fingers [wide], and thus [was] the other pillar [formed].

١٥ وَسَبَكَ حِيرَامُ عَمُودَيْنِ مِنْ نُحَاسٍ، طُولُ الْعَمُودِ الْوَاحِدِ ثَمَانِي عَشْرَةَ ذِرَاعاً (نَحْوَ تِسْعَةِ أَمْتَارٍ) وَمُحِيطُهُ اثْنَتَا عَشْرَةَ ذِرَاعاً (نَحْوَ سِتَّةِ أَمْتَارٍ)، وَكَانَا أَجْوَفَيْنِ، سُمْكُ كُلٍّ مِنْهُمَا نَحْوَ أَرْبَعِ أَصَابِعَ.

16 And he made two molten chapiters to put on the heads of the pillars: five cubits [was] the height of one chapiter, and five cubits [was] the height of the other chapiter.

١٦ وَصَنَعَ تَاجَيْنِ مِنَ النُّحَاسِ الْمَصْبُوبِ لِيَضَعَهُمَا عَلَى رَأْسَي عَمُودَي النُّحَاسِ. طُولُ التَّاجِ الْوَاحِدِ خَمْسُ أَذْرُعٍ (نَحْوَ مِتْرَيْنِ وَنِصْفِ الْمِتْرِ)،

17 And he made two ornaments of network to cover the chapiters of the pillars; even a net for one chapiter, and a net for the other chapiter.

١٧ وَزَيَّنَ كُلَّ تَاجٍ مِنَ التَّاجَيْنِ الْمَوْضُوعَيْنِ عَلَى رَأْسَي الْعَمُودَيْنِ بِسَبْعِ نَوَافِذَ مِنْ شِبَاكٍ مَصْنُوعَةٍ مِنْ ضَفَائِرِ النُّحَاسِ.

18 And hanging work, two rows of brazen pomegranates, formed with network, hanging work, row upon row: and thus he framed [the ornaments] for the second chapiter. And he set up the pillars of the porch of the temple: and he set up the one pillar, and called its name Jachum: and he set up the second pillar, and called its name Boloz.

١٨ وَسَبَكَ صَفَّيْنِ مِنَ الرُّمَّانِ حَوْلَ مُحِيطِ الْعَمُودَيْنِ عَلَى نَوَافِذِ الشَّبَكَتَيْنِ،

19 And on the heads of the pillars he made lily-work against the porch, of four cubits,

١٩ لِتَغْطِيةِ التَّاجَيْنِ اللَّذَانِ عَلَى رَأْسِي الْعَمُودَيْنِ اللَّذَيْنِ فِي الشُّرْفَةِ فَقَدْ كَانَا عَلَى شَكْلِ زَهْرَةِ السُّوسَنِّ، وَطُولُ كُلٍّ مِنْهُمَا أَرْبَعُ أَذْرُعٍ (نَحْوَ مِتْرَيْنِ)،

20 and a chamber over both the pillars, and above the sides an addition [equal to] the chamber in width.

٢٠ وَكَانَ عَلَى كُلٍّ مِنَ التَّاجَيْنِ الْقَائِمَيْنِ عَلَى الْعَمُودَيْنِ، وَفَوْقَ الْقِمَّةِ الْمُسْتَدِيرَةِ الشَّبِيهَةِ بِالطَّاقَةِ وَالتَّالِيَةِ لِلشَّبَكَةِ مِئَتَا رُمَّانَةٍ، فِي صُفُوفٍ حَوْلَ مُحِيطِ كُلِّ تَاجٍ.

21

٢١ وَنَصَبَ الْعَمُودَيْنِ فِي شُرْفَةِ الْهَيْكَلِ الْخَارِجِيَّةِ، أَحَدَهُمَا إِلَى الْيَمِينِ وَدَعَاهُ يَاكِينَ، وَالآخَرَ إِلَى الشِّمَالِ وَدَعَاهُ بُوعَزَ.

22

٢٢ وَكَانَ التَّاجَانِ عَلَى شَكْلِ زَهْرَةِ السُّوسَنِّ. وَهَكَذَا اكْتَمَلَ صُنْعُ الْعَمُودَيْنِ.

23 And he made the sea, ten cubits from one rim to the other, the same was completely circular round about: its height [was] five cubits, and its circumference thirty-three cubits.

٢٣ وَصَنَعَ حِيرَامُ بِرْكَةً مِنْ نُحَاسٍ وَجَعَلَهَا مُسْتَدِيرَةً، يَبْلُغُ طُولُ قُطْرِهَا مِنَ الْحَافَةِ إِلَى الْحَافَةِ عَشْرَ أَذْرُعٍ (نَحْوَ خَمْسَةِ أَمْتَارٍ) وَارْتِفَاعُهَا خَمْسَ أَذْرُعٍ (نَحْوَ مِتْرَيْنِ وَنِصْفِ الْمِتْرِ)، وَطُولُ مُحِيطِهَا ثَلاثِينَ ذِرَاعاً (نَحْوَ خَمْسَةَ عَشَرَ مِتْراً)

24 And stays underneath its rim round about compassed it ten cubits round;

٢٤ وَسَبَكَ تَحْتَ اسْتِدَارَةِ مُحِيطِ حَافَتِهَا صَفَّيْنِ مِنَ الْقِثَّاءِ عَشْرِ قِثَّاءَاتٍ لِكُلِّ ذِرَاعٍ (نَحْوِ نِصْفِ الْمِتْرِ) وَقَدْ سُبِكَتْ كُلُّهَا، مَعَ الْحَافَةِ حِينَ تَمَّ سَبْكُ البِرْكَةِ.

25 And [there were] twelve oxen under the sea: three looking to the north, and three looking to the west, and three looking to the south, and three looking to the east: and all their hinder parts [were] inward, and the sea [was] above upon them.

٢٥ وَكَانَتِ البِرْكَةُ تَرْتَكِزُ عَلَى اثْنَيْ عَشَرَ ثَوْراً تَتَّجِهُ رُؤُوسُ ثَلاثَةٍ مِنْهَا نَحْوَ الشِّمَالِ، وَثَلاثَةٍ مِنْهَا نَحْوَ الْغَرْبِ، وَثَلاثَةٍ مِنْهَا نَحْوَ الْجَنُوبِ، والثَّلاثَةِ الأَخِيرَةِ نَحْوَ الشَّرْقِ. أَمَّا أَعْجَازُهَا جَمِيعاً فَكَانَتْ مُتَّجِهَةً نَحْوَ الدَّاخِلِ، وَنُصِبَتِ الْبِرْكَةُ عَلَيْهَا.

26 and its rim [was] as the work of the rim of a cup, a lily-flower, and the thickness of it [was] a span.

٢٦ وَبَلَغَ سُمْكُ جِدَارِ الْبِرْكَةِ شِبْراً، وَصُنِعَتْ حَافَّتُهَا عَلَى شَكْلِ كَأْسِ زَهْرِ السُّوسَنِّ، وَهِيَ تَسَعُ أَلْفَيْ بَثٍّ (نَحْوَ أَحَدَ عَشَرَ أَلْفاً وَخَمْسِ مِئَةِ جَالُونٍ مِنَ الْمَاءِ).

27 And he made ten brazen bases: five cubits [was] the length of one base, and four cubits the breadth of it, and its height [was] six cubits.

٢٧ وَصَنَعَ حِيرَامُ أَيْضاً عَشَرَ قَوَاعِدَ مُتَحَرِّكَةٍ مِنْ نُحَاسٍ، طُولُ كُلٍّ مِنْهَا وَعَرْضُهَا أَرْبَعُ أَذْرُعٍ (نَحْوَ مِتْرَيْنِ)، وَارْتِفَاعُهَا ثَلاثُ أَذْرُعٍ (نَحْوَ مِتْرٍ وَنِصْفٍ).

28 And this work of the bases [was] formed with a border the them, and [there was] a border between the ledges.

٢٨ وَهَذِهِ هِيَ كَيْفِيَّةُ صُنْعِهَا: كَانَ لَهَا أَتْرَاسٌ مُثَبَّتَةٌ فِي وَسْطِ أُطُرٍ،

29 And upon their borders between the projection [were] lions, and oxen, and cherubs: and on the projections, even so above, and also below [were] the places of lions and oxen, hanging work.

٢٩ وَطَرَقَ عَلَى الأَتْرَاسِ الَّتِي فِي وَسْطِ الأُطُرِ وَعَلَى الأُطُرِ، أُسُوداً وَثِيرَاناً وَكَرُوبِيمَ. كَمَا تَدَلَّتْ قَلائِدُ زُهُورٍ مِنْ فَوْقِ الأُسُودِ وَالثِّيرَانِ وَمِنْ تَحْتِهَا.

30 And [there were] four brazen wheels to one base; and [there were] brazen bases, and their four sides [answering to them], side pieces under the bases.

٣٠ وَكَانَ لِكُلِّ قَاعِدَةٍ أَرْبَعُ بَكَرَاتٍ نُحَاسِيَّةٍ ذَاتِ مَحَاوِرَ نُحَاسِيَّةٍ، وَلِكُلِّ وَاحِدَةٍ مِنْهَا أَكْتَافٌ لِزَوَايَاهَا الأَرْبَعِ. وَهَذِهِ الأَكْتَافُ مَسْبُوكَةٌ تَحْتَ الْمِرْحَضَةِ بِجُوَارِ كُلِّ قَلادَةٍ.

31 And [there were] axles in the wheels under the base.

٣١ أَمَّا فَمُهَا فَهُوَ دَاخِلُ إِكْلِيلٍ، وَيَبْلُغُ ارْتِفَاعُهُ ذِرَاعاً (نَحْوَ نِصْفِ الْمِتْرِ)، وَهُوَ مُسْتَدِيرٌ مُمَاثِلٌ لِلْقَاعِدَةِ، يَبْلُغُ عُمْقُهُ ذِرَاعاً وَنِصْفَ ذِرَاعٍ (نَحْوَ ثَلاثَةِ أَرْبَاعِ الْمِتْرِ)، وَقَدْ نُقِشَتْ عَلَيْهِ نُقُوشٌ. أَمَّا أَتْرَاسُهَا فَمُرَبَّعَةُ الشَّكْلِ وَلَيْسَتْ مُسْتَدِيرَةً.

32 And the height of one wheel [was] a cubit and a half.

٣٢ وَتَقَعُ الْبَكَرَاتُ تَحْتَ الأَتْرَاسِ، فِي حِين أُثْبِتَتْ مَحَاوِرُهَا فِي الْقَاعِدَةِ. وَكَانَ قُطْرُ الْبَكَرَةِ ذِرَاعاً وَنِصْفَ ذِرَاعٍ (نَحْوَ ثَلاثَةِ أَرْبَاعِ الْمِتْرِ).

33 And the work of the wheels [was] as the work of chariot wheels: their axles, and their felloes, and [the rest of] their work, [were] all molten.

٣٣ وَصُنِعَتِ الْبَكَرَاتُ عَلَى مِثَالِ عَجَلاتِ الْمَرْكَبَاتِ. أَمَّا مَحَاوِرُهَا وَأُطُرُهَا وَقُضْبَانُهَا وَقُبُوبُهَا فَقَدْ كَانَتْ كُلُّهَا مَسْبُوكَةً.

34 The four side pieces were at the four corners of each base; its shoulders [were formed] of the base.

٣٤ وَكَانَ لِكُلِّ قَاعِدَةٍ أَكْتَافٌ أَرْبَعٌ، هِيَ جُزْءٌ مِنَ الْقَاعِدَةِ، قَائِمَةٌ عَلَى زَوَايَاهَا الأَرْبَعِ.

35 And on the top of the base half a cubit [was] the size of it, [there was] a circle on the top of the base, and [there was] the top of its spaces and its borders: and it was open at the top of its spaces.

٣٥ وَأَعْلَى الْقَاعِدَةِ مُقَبَّبٌ مُسْتَدِيرٌ يَبْلُغُ عُمْقُهُ نِصْفَ ذِرَاعٍ (نَحْوَ رُبْعِ الْمِتْرِ)، وَقَدْ سُبِكَتْ دَعَائِمُهُ وَأَتْرَاسُهُ مَعَ الْقَاعِدَةِ.

36 And its borders [were] cherubs, and lions, and palm-trees, upright, each [was] joined in front [and] within and round about.

٣٦ وَتَمَّ نَقْشُ كَرُوبِيمَ وَأُسُودٍ وَنَخِيلٍ، مَعَ قَلائِدِ زُهُورٍ، عَلَى جَوَانِبِ الدَّعَائِمِ وَالأَتْرَاسِ، وَفِي كُلِّ مَكَانٍ يَتَّسِعُ لِلنَّقْشِ.

37 According to the same form he made all the ten bases, [even] one order and one measure to all.

٣٧ هَكَذَا صَنَعَ حِيرَامُ الْقَوَاعِدَ الْعَشْرَ، فَكَانَتْ كُلُّهَا مُتَمَاثِلَةً فِي السَّبْكِ وَالْقِيَاسِ وَالشَّكْلِ.

38 And he made ten brazen lavers, each laver containing forty baths, [and] measuring four cubits, each laver [placed] on a several base throughout the ten bases.

٣٨ وَصَنَعَ حِيرَامُ أَيْضاً عَشْرَةَ مَرَاحِضَ مِنْ نُحَاسٍ تَسَعُ كُلُّ مِرْحَضَةٍ أَرْبَعِينَ بَثّاً (نَحْوَ مِئَتَيْنِ وَثَلاثِينَ جَالُوناً مِنَ الْمَاءِ)، قُطْرُ كُلٍّ مِنْهَا أَرْبَعُ أَذْرُعٍ (نَحْوَ مِتْرَيْنِ). فَكَانَ لِكُلِّ قَاعِدَةٍ مِنَ الْقَوَاعِدِ الْعَشَرِ مِرْحَضَةٌ.

39 And he put five bases on the right side of the house, and five on the left side of the house: and the sea was placed on the right side of the house eastward in the direction of the south.

٣٩ وَأَقَامَ خَمْسَ قَوَاعِدَ عَلَى جَانِبِ الْهَيْكَلِ الأَيْمَنِ، وَخَمْساً عَلَى جَانِبِ الْهَيْكَلِ الأَيْسَرِ، أَمَّا الْبِرْكَةُ فَكَانَتْ فِي الرُّكْنِ الْجَنُوبِيِّ الشَّرْقِيِّ مِنَ الْهَيْكَلِ.

40 And Chiram made the caldrons, and the pans, and the bowls; and Chiram finished making all the works that he wrought for king Solomon in the house of the Lord:

٤٠ وَانْتَهَى حِيرَامُ مِنْ صُنْعِ الأَحْوَاضِ وَالْمَجَارِفِ وَالْكُؤوسِ الَّتِي عَهِدَ بِها إِلَيْهِ الْمَلِكُ سُلَيْمَانُ لأَجْلِ بَيْتِ الرَّبِّ،

41 two pillars and the wreathen works of the pillars on the heads of the two pillars; and the two networks to cover both the wreathen works of the flutings that were upon the pillars.

٤١ وَكَذَلِكَ مِنَ الْعَمُودَيْنِ وَكَأْسَيِ التَّاجَيْنِ الْقَائِمَيْنِ عَلَى رَأْسَيِ الْعَمُودَيْنِ، وَالشَّبَكَتَيْنِ لِتَغْطِيَةِ كَأْسَيِ التَّاجَيْنِ اللَّذَيْنِ عَلَى رَأْسَيِ الْعَمُودَيْنِ،

42 The four hundred pomegranates for both the networks, two rows of pomegranates for one network, to cover both the wreathen works of the bases belonging to both pillars.

٤٢ وَالأَرْبَعِ مِئَةِ رُمَّانَةٍ الْمَنْقُوشَةِ فِي صَفَّيْنِ حَوْلَ الشَّبَكَتَيْنِ اللَّتَيْنِ تُغَطِّيَانِ كَأْسَيِ التَّاجَيْنِ الْقَائِمَيْنِ عَلَى الْعَمُودَيْنِ،

43 And the ten bases, and the ten lavers upon the bases.

٤٣ وَالْقَوَاعِدِ الْعَشَرِ وَالْمَرَاحِضِ الْعَشَرِ الْمُثَبَّتَةِ عَلَى الْقَوَاعِدِ.

44 And one sea, and the twelve oxen under the sea.

٤٤ وَالْبِرْكَةِ الْمُرْتَكِزَةِ عَلَى الاثْنَيْ عَشَرَ ثَوْراً،

45 And the caldrons, and pans, and bowls, and all the furniture, which Chiram made for king Solomon for the house of the Lord: and [there were] eight and forty pillars of the house of the king and of the house of the Lord: all the works of the king which Chiram made were entirely of brass.

٤٥ وَالْقُدُورِ وَالْمَجَارِفِ وَالْكُؤوسِ. وَقَدْ صَنَعَ حِيرَامُ مِنَ النُّحَاسِ الْمَصْقُولِ، جَمِيعَ هَذِهِ الآنِيَةِ الَّتِي عَهِدَ إِلَيْهِ بِها الْمَلِكُ سُلَيْمَانُ لِهَيْكَلِ الرَّبِّ.

46

٤٦ وَقَدْ أَمَرَ الْمَلِكُ بِسَبْكِهَا فِي غَوْرِ الأُرْدُنِّ، فِي أَرْضِ الْخَزَفِ، بَيْنَ سُكُّوتَ وَصَرَتَانَ.

47 There was no reckoning of the brass of which he made all these works, from the very great abundance, there was no end of the weight of the brass. In the country round about Jordan did he cast them, in the clay land between Socchoth and Sira.

٤٧ وَلَمْ يُحَاوِلْ سُلَيْمَانُ وَزْنَ جَمِيعِ هَذِهِ الآنِيَةِ لِفَرْطِ كَثْرَتِهَا، حَتَّى لَمْ يَتِمَّ التَّحَقُّقُ مِنْ وَزْنِ النُّحَاسِ.

48 And king Solomon took the furniture which [Chiram] made for the house of the Lord, the golden altar, and the golden table of show bread.

٤٨ وَصَنَعَ سُلَيْمَانُ جَمِيعَ أَوَانِي هَيْكَلِ الرَّبِّ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ، وَكَذَلِكَ الْمَائِدَةَ الَّتِي يُوْضَعُ عَلَيْهَا خُبْزُ التَّقْدِمَةِ.

49 And [he put] the five candlesticks on the left, and five on the right in front of the oracle, [being] of pure gold, and the lamp-stands, and the lamps, and the snuffers of gold.

٤٩ كَمَا صُنِعَتِ الْمَنَائِرُ الَّتِي وُزِّعَتْ أَمَامَ الْمِحْرَابِ، خَمْساً إِلَى الْيَمِينِ وَخَمْساً إِلَى الْيَسَارِ، مِنْ ذَهَبٍ نَقِيٍّ، وَأَيْضاً الأَزْهَارُ وَالسُّرُجُ وَالْمَلاقِطُ كُلُّهَا صُنِعَتْ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ.

50 And [there were made] the porches, and the nails, and the bowls, and the spoons, and the golden censers, of pure gold: and the panels of the doors of the innermost part of the house, [even] the holy of holies, and the golden doors of the temple.

٥٠ وَصُنِعَتِ الطُّسُوسُ وَالْمَقَصَّاتُ وَالْمَنَاضِحُ وَالْمَرَاحِضُ وَالْمَجَامِرُ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ نَقِيٍّ، كَمَا صُنِعَتْ مَفْصِلاتُ مَصَارِيعِ قُدْسِ الأَقْدَاسِ وَأَبْوَابِ الْهَيْكَلِ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ.

51 So the work of the house of the Lord which Solomon wrought was finished; and Solomon brought in the holy things of David his father, and all the holy things of Solomon; he put the silver, and the gold, and the furniture, into the treasures of the house of the Lord.

٥١ وَهَكَذَا اكْتَمَلَ الْعَمَلُ كُلُّهُ الَّذِي قَامَ بِهِ الْمَلِكُ سُلَيْمَانُ لِتَشْيِيدِ هَيْكَلِ الرَّبِّ، وَأَخَذَ سُلَيْمَانُ مُدَّخَرَاتِ أَبِيهِ دَاوُدَ، مِنْ فِضَّةٍ وَذَهَبٍ وَأَوَانٍ، الَّتِي كَرَّسَهَا لِهَيْكَلِ الرَّبِّ، وَوَضَعَهَا فِي خَزَائِنِ الْهَيْكَلِ.
