< 1 Kings 6 >

1 And it comes to pass, in the four hundred and eightieth year of the going out of the sons of Israel from the land of Egypt, in the fourth year—in the month of Ziv, it [is] the second month—of the reigning of Solomon over Israel, that he builds the house for YHWH.
Mwaka-inĩ wa magana mana na mĩrongo ĩnana, thuutha wa andũ a Isiraeli kuuma bũrũri wa Misiri, o mwaka-inĩ wa ĩna wa Solomoni gũthamakĩra Isiraeli, mweri-inĩ wa Zivu, naguo nĩguo mweri wa keerĩ-rĩ, Solomoni akĩambĩrĩria gwaka hekarũ ya Jehova.
2 As for the house that King Solomon has built for YHWH, its length [is] sixty cubits, and its breadth twenty, and its height thirty cubits.
Hekarũ ĩrĩa Mũthamaki Solomoni aakĩire Jehova yarĩ na ũraihu wa mĩkono mĩrongo ĩtandatũ, na wariĩ wa mĩkono mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ, na ũraihu wa na igũrũ wa mĩkono mĩrongo ĩtatũ.
3 As for the porch on the front of the temple of the house, its length [is] twenty cubits on the front of the breadth of the house; its breadth [is] ten by the cubit on the front of the house;
Gĩthaku kĩa mwena wa mbere wa nyũmba ĩyo nene ya hekarũ nĩkĩongereire wariĩ wa hekarũ, nakĩo kĩarĩ kĩa mĩkono mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ, na gĩgacomoka mĩkono ikũmi kuuma na mwena wa mbere wa hekarũ.
4 and he makes frames of narrowing windows for the house.
Nake agĩakĩra hekarũ ndirica ngundeeru cia na igũrũ.
5 And he builds a couch against the wall of the house all around, [even] the walls of the house all around, of the temple and of the oracle, and makes sides all around.
Nĩaakithirie tũnyũmba twa mĩena-inĩ, tũgĩthiũrũrũkĩria hekarũ yothe tũnyiitanĩte na thingo cia nyũmba ĩrĩa nene ya hekarũ na cia handũ-harĩa-haamũre ha na thĩinĩ.
6 The lowest couch, its breadth [is] five by the cubit; and the middle, its breadth [is] six by the cubit; and the third, its breadth [is] seven by the cubit, for he has put withdrawings of the house all around outside—not to lay hold on the walls of the house.
Ngoroba ya thĩ mũno yarĩ na wariĩ wa mĩkono ĩtano, na ya gatagatĩ yarĩ na wariĩ wa mĩkono ĩtandatũ, na ya gatatũ yarĩ na wariĩ wa mĩkono mũgwanja. Nĩathondekire mbako ithiũrũrũkĩirie mwena wa na nja wa hekarũ, nĩgeetha mbaũ iria ndungu cia mwako itigatoonyio thingo-inĩ cia hekarũ.
7 And the house, in its being built, has been built of perfect stone [that was] brought; and hammer and the axe—any instrument of iron—was not heard in the house in its being built.
Hekarũ ĩgĩakwo-rĩ, mahiga marĩa maicũhĩirio kware no mo maahũthĩrirwo, na gũtiarĩ nyondo, kana ithanwa, kana kĩndũ kĩngĩ gĩa kĩgera kĩaiguirwo hau mwako-inĩ wa hekarũ hĩndĩ ĩrĩa yothe yaakagwo.
8 The opening of the middle side [is] at the right shoulder of the house, and with windings they go up on the middle one, and from the middle one to the third.
Mũromo wa gũtoonya ngoroba ya thĩ warĩ mwena wa gũthini wa hekarũ; ningĩ nĩ haarĩ na ngathĩ ya kwambata ngoroba ya gatagatĩ na kuuma hau ĩgathiĩ ngoroba ya gatatũ.
9 And he builds the house, and completes it, and covers the house [with] beams and rows of cedars.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio agĩaka hekarũ na akĩmĩrĩkia, akĩmĩgita na mĩgamba na mbaũ cia mĩtarakwa.
10 And he builds the couch against all the house, its breadth [is] five cubits, and it takes hold of the house by cedar-wood.
Na nĩakĩrĩire tũnyũmba twa rwere tũthiũrũkĩirie hekarũ, ũraihu wa o kamwe warĩ mĩkono ĩtano kũraiha na igũrũ, natuo twanyiitithanĩtio na hekarũ na mĩgamba ya mĩtarakwa.
11 And the word of YHWH is to Solomon, saying,
Kiugo kĩa Jehova nĩgĩakinyĩire Solomoni, akĩĩrwo atĩrĩ:
12 “This house that you are building—if you walk in My statutes, and do My judgments, indeed, have done all My commands, to walk in them, then I have established My word with you, which I spoke to your father David,
“Ha ũhoro wa hekarũ ĩno ũraaka-rĩ, ũngĩrũmĩrĩra uuge wakwa wa kũrũmĩrĩrwo, na ũrũmie mawatho makwa mothe, o na ũmenyerere maathani makwa na ũmathĩkagĩre, nĩngakũhingĩria kĩĩranĩro kĩrĩa ndaaheire thoguo Daudi.
13 and have dwelt in the midst of the sons of Israel, and do not forsake My people Israel.”
Na nĩngatũũrania na andũ a Isiraeli, na ndigatiganĩria andũ akwa a Isiraeli.”
14 And Solomon builds the house and completes it;
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Solomoni agĩaka hekarũ na akĩmĩrĩkia.
15 and he builds the walls of the house within with beams of cedar, from the floor of the house to the walls of the ceiling; he has overlaid the inside with wood, and covers the floor of the house with ribs of fir.
Nake akĩhumbĩra thingo cia thĩinĩ na mbaũ cia mĩtarakwa, ciarĩtwo kuuma thĩ ya hekarũ nginya igũrũ, nakuo thĩ ya hekarũ gũkĩarwo mbaũ cia mũthengera.
16 And he builds the twenty cubits on the sides of the house with ribs of cedar, from the floor to the walls; and he builds for it within, for the oracle, for the Holy of Holies.
Mwena wa thuutha wa hekarũ akĩgayania mĩkono mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na mbaũ cia mĩtarakwa kuuma thĩ nginya igũrũ, nĩgeetha hekarũ-inĩ hagĩe handũ haamũre thĩinĩ, hatuĩke Harĩa-Hatheru-Mũno.
17 And [this area of] the house was forty by the cubit; it [is the area of] the temple before My face.
Ũraihu wa nyũmba ĩrĩa nene yarĩ mbere ya kanyũmba kau warĩ wa mĩkono mĩrongo ĩna kũraiha.
18 And the cedar for the house within [is] carvings of knobs and openings of flowers; the whole [is] cedar, there is not a stone seen.
Hekarũ thĩinĩ kwahumbĩrĩtwo na mbaũ cia mĩtarakwa, ciicũhĩtio magemio mahaana tũbũũthũ na mahũa macanũku. Indo ciothe ciarĩ cia mĩtarakwa; gũtiarĩ ihiga o na rĩmwe rĩonekaga.
19 And he has prepared the oracle in the midst of the house within, to put the Ark of the Covenant of YHWH there.
Thĩinĩ wa handũ-harĩa-haamũre, hekarũ thĩinĩ nĩathondekire handũ ha kũigĩrĩra ithandũkũ rĩa kĩrĩkanĩro kĩa Jehova.
20 And before the oracle [is] twenty cubits in length, and twenty cubits in breadth, and its height [is] twenty cubits; and he overlays it with gold refined, and overlays the altar with cedar.
Hau thĩinĩ haamũre, ũraihu waho warĩ mĩkono mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ, na wariĩ wa mĩkono mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ, na mĩkono mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ kũraiha na igũrũ. Nake nĩagemirie mwena wa thĩinĩ na thahabu therie, na ningĩ akĩgemia kĩgongona kĩu na mbaũ cia mĩtarakwa.
21 And Solomon overlays the house within with gold refined, and causes [it] to pass over in chains of gold before the oracle, and overlays it with gold.
Solomoni aahumbĩrire hekarũ thĩinĩ na thahabu therie, na agĩkĩrania irengeeri cia thahabu mbere ya itoonyero rĩa hau thĩinĩ haamũre harĩa haagemetio na thahabu.
22 And he has overlaid the whole of the house with gold, until the completion of all the house; and the whole of the altar that the oracle has, he has overlaid with gold.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio akĩgemia thĩinĩ guothe na thahabu. Ningĩ nĩagemirie kĩgongona kĩrĩa kĩarĩ thĩinĩ wa handũ-harĩa-haamũre na thahabu.
23 And he makes two cherubim of the oil-tree within the oracle; their height [is] ten cubits;
Hau thĩinĩ haamũre, agĩthondeka makerubi meerĩ na mbaũ cia mĩtamaiyũ, ikerubi o rĩmwe rĩarĩ rĩa mĩkono ikũmi kũraiha na igũrũ.
24 and the first wing of the cherub [is] five cubits, and the second wing of the cherub five cubits—ten cubits from the ends of his wings even to the ends of his wings;
Ikerubi rĩa mbere rĩarĩ na ithagu rĩa mĩkono ĩtano kũraiha, na rĩu rĩngĩ mĩkono ĩtano; ũguo nĩ kuuga mĩkono ikũmi kuuma mũthia wa ithagu rĩmwe nginya mũthia wa ithagu rĩrĩa rĩngĩ.
25 and the second cherub [is] ten by the cubit; one measure and one form [are] of the two cherubim,
Ikerubi rĩa keerĩ o narĩo rĩarĩ rĩa mĩkono ikũmi; makerubi macio meerĩ nĩmaiganaine na makahaanana.
26 the height of the first cherub [is] ten by the cubit, and so [is] the second cherub;
Ũraihu wa o ikerubi rĩmwe warĩ wa mĩkono ikũmi.
27 and he sets the cherubim in the midst of the inner house, and they spread out the wings of the cherubim, and a wing of the first comes against the wall, and a wing of the second cherub is coming against the second wall, and their wings [stretched] into the midst of the house, coming wing against wing;
Nĩaigire makerubi macio kanyũmba ga thĩinĩ mũno ka hekarũ, matambũrũkĩtie mathagu mamo. Ithagu rĩa ikerubi rĩmwe rĩaturumĩte rũthingo rũmwe, narĩo ithagu rĩa ikerubi rĩu rĩngĩ rĩgaturuma rũthingo rũu rũngĩ. Na mathagu mamo magaturumanĩra gatagatĩ ga kanyũmba.
28 and he overlays the cherubim with gold,
Nĩaagemirie makerubi macio na thahabu.
29 and he has carved all around the walls of the house with engravings of carvings, cherubim, and palm trees, and openings of flowers, inside and outside.
Thingo-inĩ iria ciathiũrũrũkĩirie hekarũ, thĩinĩ wa tũnyũmba twa thĩinĩ na twa na nja, agĩicũhia magemio ma makerubi, na ma mĩtĩ ya mĩtende, na ma mahũa macanũku.
30 And he has overlaid the floor of the house with gold, inside and outside;
Ningĩ akĩhumbĩra thĩ ya tũnyũmba twa thĩinĩ na twa nja ya hekarũ na thahabu.
31 as for the opening of the oracle, he made doors of the oil-tree; the lintel [and] doorposts [are] a fifth [of the wall].
Narĩo itoonyero rĩa hau thĩinĩ haamũre agĩthondeka mĩrango ya mbaũ cia mĩtamaiyũ, nacio buremu ciayo ciarĩ na mĩena ĩtano.
32 And the two doors [are] of the oil-tree, and he has carved on them carvings of cherubim, and palm-trees, and openings of flowers, and overlaid with gold, and he causes the gold to go down on the cherubim and on the palm-trees.
Na mĩrango-ini yeerĩ ya mbaũ cia mĩtamaiyũ agĩicũhia magemio ma makerubi, na ma mĩtĩ ya mĩtende na ma mahũa macanũku, na akĩgemia makerubi na mĩtĩ ya mĩtende na thahabu hũũre.
33 And so he has made for the opening of the temple, doorposts of the oil-tree, from the fourth [of the wall].
O ũndũ ũmwe nĩathondekire buremu irĩ na mĩena ĩna cia mĩtamaiyũ cia itoonyero rĩa nyũmba ĩrĩa nene.
34 And the two doors [are] of fir-tree, the two sides of the first door are revolving, and the two hangings of the second door are revolving.
Ningĩ agĩthondeka mĩrango ĩĩrĩ ya mbaũ cia mĩthengera, o mũrango warĩ na icunjĩ igĩrĩ ciekũnjaga wahingũrwo.
35 And he has carved cherubim, and palms, and openings of flowers, and overlaid the carved work with straightened gold.
Nĩacũhirie makerubi, na mĩtĩ ya mĩtende, na mahũa macanũku igũrũ rĩa mĩrango ĩyo, na akĩmĩgemia na thahabu hũũre ĩigananĩirie wega maicũhio-inĩ macio.
36 And he builds the inner court, three rows of hewn work, and a row of beams of cedar.
Na nĩaakire nja ya thĩinĩ na mĩhari ĩtatũ ya mahiga maicũhie na mũhari ũngĩ ũmwe wa mĩgamba mĩicũhie ya mĩtarakwa.
37 In the fourth year the house of YHWH has been founded, in the month of Ziv,
Mũthingi wa hekarũ ĩyo ya Jehova wakirwo mwaka wa ĩna wa mweri wa Zivu.
38 and in the eleventh year, in the month of Bul (the eighth month), the house has been finished in all its matters, and in all its ordinances, and he builds it [in] seven years.
Mwaka-inĩ wa ikũmi na ũmwe mweri-inĩ wa Bulu, nĩguo mweri wa ĩnana, nĩguo hekarũ yarĩkire hamwe na maũndũ mayo mothe kũringana na ũrĩa yerĩtwo yakwo. Aikarire ihinda rĩa mĩaka mũgwanja akĩmĩaka.
