< 2 Chronicles 4 >
1 He made also an altar of copper, twenty cubits being its length, and twenty cubits its breadth, and ten cubits its height.
Fecit quoque altare æneum viginti cubitorum longitudinis, et viginti cubitorum latitudinis, et decem cubitorum altitudinis.
2 He made also the molten sea, being ten cubits from the one brim to the other, rounded all about, and it was five cubits in height: and a line of thirty cubits did encompass it round about.
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 And likenesses of oxen were under it, encompassing it all round about, ten in a cubit, encircling the sea round about: the oxen were in two rows [and were] cast [with it], when it was cast.
Similitudo quoque boum erat subter illud, et decem cubitis quædam extrinsecus cælaturæ, quasi duobus versibus alvum maris circuibant. Boves autem erant fusiles:
4 It was standing upon twelve oxen, three looking toward the north, and three looking toward the west, and three looking toward the south, and three looking toward the east; and the sea was resting above upon them, and all their hinder parts were inward.
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 And its thickness was a hand's breadth, and its brim like the brim of a cup, with lily-buds; and it could hold and contain 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 made also ten lavers; and he placed five on the right hand, and five on the left, to wash in them: what belonged to the burnt-offering they rinsed off at them; but the sea was for the priests to wash in.
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 And he made ten candlesticks of gold according to their prescribed manner: and he placed [them] in the temple, five on the right side, and five on the left.
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 He made also ten tables, and he set them in the temple, five on the right side, and five on the left. And he made a hundred bowls of gold.
Necnon et mensas decem: et posuit eas in templo, quinque a dextris, et quinque a sinistris: phialas quoque aureas centum.
9 And he made the court of the priests, and the great out-court, and doors for the out-court, and their doors he overlaid with copper.
Fecit etiam atrium sacerdotum, et basilicam grandem: et ostia in basilica, quæ texit ære.
10 And the sea he placed on the right side toward the east, opposite to the south.
Porro mare posuit in latere dextro contra Orientem ad Meridiem.
11 And Churam made the pots, and the shovels, and the basins. And Churam made an end of doing the work which he made for king Solomon in the house of God:
Fecit autem Hiram lebetes, et creagras, et phialas: et complevit omne opus regis in domo Dei:
12 The two pillars, and the bowls, and the capitals on the top of the two pillars, and the two networks to cover the bowl-shaped capitals which were on the top of the pillars;
hoc est, columnas duas, et epistylia, et capita, et quasi quædam retiacula, quæ capita tegerent super epistylia.
13 And the four hundred pomegranates for the two networks, two rows of pomegranates for each network, to cover the two bowl-shaped capitals which were upon the front of the pillars.
Malogranata quoque quadringenta, et retiacula duo ita ut bini ordines malogranatorum singulis retiaculis iungerentur, quæ protegerent epistylia, et capita columnarum.
14 The bases also did he make, and the lavers made he upon the bases.
Bases etiam fecit, et conchas, quas superposuit basibus:
15 The one sea, and the twelve oxen under it,
mare unum, boves quoque duodecim sub mari.
16 And the pots also, and the shovels, and the forks, and all their instruments, did Churam-Abiv make for king Solomon for the house of the Lord, of polished copper.
Et lebetes, et creagras, et phialas. Omnia vasa fecit Salomoni Hiram pater eius in domo Domini ex ære mundissimo.
17 In the plain of the Jordan did the king cast them, in the clay-ground between Succoth and Zeredathah.
In regione Iordanis fudit ea rex in argillosa terra inter Sochot, et Saredatha.
18 And Solomon made all these vessels in very great abundance; for the weight of the copper was not inquired into.
Erat autem multitudo vasorum innumerabilis, ita ut ignoraretur pondus æris.
19 And Solomon made all the vessels that pertained to the house of God; and the altar of gold also, and the tables whereon the show-bread [was set];
Fecitque Salomon omnia vasa domus Dei, et altare aureum, et mensas, et super eas panes propositionis:
20 And the candlesticks with their lamps, to light them after the prescribed manner before the debir, of pure gold.
candelabra quoque cum lucernis suis ut lucerent ante oraculum iuxta ritum ex auro purissimo:
21 And the flowers, and the lamps, and the tongs, were of gold, the purest of gold;
et florentia quædam, et lucernas, et forcipes aureos: omnia de auro mundissimo facta sunt.
22 And the knives, and the basins, and the spoons, and the censers were of pure gold; and the entrance of the house, its inner doors for the most holy place, and the doors of the house of the temple, were of 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.
