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.

Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi hono taʻu ʻe fāngeau ma valungofulu hili ʻae haʻu ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli mei he fonua ʻo ʻIsipite, ʻi hono fā ʻoe taʻu ʻoe pule ʻa Solomone ki ʻIsileli, ʻi he māhina ko Sifi, ʻaia ko hono ua ʻoe māhina, naʻa ne kamata langa ʻae fale ʻo Sihova.

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.

Pea ko e fale naʻe langa ʻe he tuʻi ko Solomone kia Sihova, naʻe lōloa ia ko e hanga ʻe teau ma uofulu, pea ko hono māukupu ko e hanga ʻe fāngofulu, pea ko hono māʻolunga ʻo ia ko e hanga ʻe onongofulu.

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;

Pea ko hono lōloa ʻoe hūʻanga fale fakamalumalu ʻi he ʻao ʻoe falelotu, ko e hanga ʻe fāngofulu, ʻo fakatatau mo e māukupu ʻoe fale; pea ko hono māukupu ʻi he ʻao ʻoe fale ko e hanga ʻe uofulu.

4 and he makes frames of narrowing windows for the house.

Pea naʻa ne ngaohi ki he fale ʻae ngaahi kātupa naʻe faʻa fakamaʻu ke sio mei ai.

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.

Pea naʻa ne langa ʻae ngaahi potuʻi fale ʻi he tafaʻaki holisi maka ʻoe fale ʻo takatakai, ʻio, ʻi he tafaʻaki holisi maka ʻoe fale ʻo takatakai hake ʻi he potu tapu pea mo e folofolaʻanga: pea naʻa ne ngaohi ʻae ngaahi potu fale ʻo takatakai hake:

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.

Ko e potu fale ʻi lalo ko hono māukupu ko e hanga ʻe hongofulu, pea ko ia ki loto ko e hanga ʻe hongofulu ma ua ʻa hono māukupu ʻo ia, pea ko hono tolu naʻe hongofulu ma fā ʻae hanga ʻi hono māukupu ʻo ia: he naʻa ne ngaohi ʻae ngaahi hiliʻanga lalanga lausiʻi kituʻa ʻi he holisi maka ʻoe fale, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa fakamaʻu ia ki he holisi maka ʻoe fale.

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.

Pea ʻi heʻene langa hake ʻae fale, naʻe langa ia ʻaki ʻae maka naʻe fakaʻosi ʻa hono teuteuʻi ʻi he teʻeki ke ʻomi ia ki ai; ko ia naʻe ʻikai patō ai ʻi he fale ha hamala, pe ha toki, pe ha meʻa fakatufunga ukamea, lolotonga ʻa hono langa hake.

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.

Naʻe tuʻu ʻae matapā ki he potu fale ʻi loto ki he potu fale toʻomataʻu: pea naʻa nau ʻalu hake ʻi he tuʻunga mamiomio ki he fale ʻi loto, pea mei ai ʻi loto ki hono tolu.

9 And he builds the house, and completes it, and covers the house [with] beams and rows of cedars.

Naʻe pehē ʻa ʻene langa ʻae fale mo fakaʻosi ia: pea naʻa ne ʻato ʻaki ʻae fale ʻae ngaahi lalanga mo e laupapa ʻoe ʻakau ko e sita.

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.

Pea naʻa ne langa ʻae ngaahi potuʻi fale ke falala ki he holisi maka kotoa pē ʻoe fale, ko e hanga ʻe hongofulu ʻa hono māʻolunga: pea naʻe fakafalala ia ki he fale ʻaki ʻae ʻakau ko e sita.

11 And the word of YHWH is to Solomon, saying,

Pea naʻe hoko mai ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kia Solomone, ʻo pehē,

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,

“Ko e fale eni ʻoku ke fokotuʻu, pea kapau te ke ʻalu ʻi heʻeku ngaahi fono, mo fai ʻeku ngaahi fakamaau, pea tauhi ʻa ʻeku ngaahi fekau ke ʻeveʻeva ʻi ai; pehē, te u toki fakamoʻoni ʻa ʻeku lea kiate koe, ʻaia naʻaku lea ʻaki kia Tevita ko hoʻo tamai:

13 and have dwelt in the midst of the sons of Israel, and do not forsake My people Israel.”

pea te u nofo ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, pea ʻe ʻikai te u liʻaki ʻa hoku kakai ko ʻIsileli.”

14 And Solomon builds the house and completes it;

Ko ia naʻe langa ʻe Solomone ʻae fale, pea naʻa ne fakaʻosi ia.

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.

Pea naʻa ne ʻaofi ʻae holisi maka ki loto fale ʻaki ʻae laupapa sita, mei he faliki ʻoe fale ʻo aʻu hake ʻi he holisi maka ki he ʻato: naʻa ne ʻaofi ia ʻaki ʻae ʻakau, pea naʻa ne faliki ʻaki ʻae fale ʻae laupapa, mei he ʻakau ko e paini.

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.

Pea naʻa ne ʻaofi ʻae holisi ʻoe fale, ko e hanga ʻe fāngofulu ʻaki ʻae laupapa sita, ʻio, ʻae faliki [ʻoe fale ]pea mo e holisi; naʻa ne ngaohi pehē ia ki loto maʻae folofolaʻanga, pea mo e potu toputapu ʻaupito.

17 And [this area of] the house was forty by the cubit; it [is the area of] the temple before My face.

Pea ko e fale, ʻio, ʻae falelotu naʻe ʻi hono ʻao, ko e hanga ʻe valungofulu ʻa hono lōloa.

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.

Pea naʻe tongitongi ki he sita ʻoe loto fale ʻae fuaʻi ʻakau, mo e ngaahi fisi kuo tatala: naʻe sita kotoa pē; naʻe ʻikai ke ha ai ha maka.

19 And he has prepared the oracle in the midst of the house within, to put the Ark of the Covenant of YHWH there.

Pea naʻa ne teuteuʻi ʻae folofolaʻanga ʻi he potu fale ki loto, ke tuku ki ai ʻae puha ʻoe fuakava ʻo Sihova.

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.

Pea ko hono lōloa ʻoe folofolaʻanga ki muʻa ko e hanga ʻe fāngofulu, pea ko hono māukupu ko e hanga ʻe fāngofulu, pea ko hono māʻolunga ʻo ia ko e hanga ʻe fāngofulu: pea naʻa ne ʻufiʻufi ʻaki ia ʻae koula moʻoniia; pea naʻe ʻaofia foki ʻae feilaulauʻanga sita.

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.

Ko ia, naʻe ʻufiʻufi ʻae loto fale ʻo Solomone ʻaki ʻae koula haohaoa: pea naʻa ne vahevahe [ʻae fale ]ʻaki ʻae ngaahi seini koula ki muʻa ʻi he folofolaʻanga; pea naʻa ne ʻaofi ʻaki ia ʻae koula.

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.

Pea naʻa ne ʻufiʻufi ʻaki ʻae koula ʻae fale kātoa, kaeʻoua ke ʻosi ʻae fale kātoa ʻi hono ʻai: pea ko e feilaulauʻanga kātoa naʻe ofi ki he folofolaʻanga, naʻa ne ʻaofi ia ʻaki ʻae koula.

23 And he makes two cherubim of the oil-tree within the oracle; their height [is] ten cubits;

Pea ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe folofolaʻanga naʻa ne ngaohi ai ʻae ongo selupi mei he ʻakau ko e ʻolive, ko hona māʻolunga taki taha ko e hanga ʻe uofulu.

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;

Pea ko e kapakau ʻe taha ʻoe selupi ko hono lōloa ko e hanga ʻe hongofulu, pea ko e hanga ʻe hongofulu ʻae lōloa ʻoe kapakau ʻoe selupi ʻe taha: mei he mui kapakau ʻe taha ʻo aʻu atu ki he mui kapakau ʻe taha ko hono lōloa ko e hanga ʻe uofulu.

25 and the second cherub [is] ten by the cubit; one measure and one form [are] of the two cherubim,

Pea naʻe uofulu ʻae hanga ʻoe selupi ʻe taha: naʻe tatau pe ʻae ongo selupi ʻi hona fuofua pea mo hona lahi.

26 the height of the first cherub [is] ten by the cubit, and so [is] the second cherub;

Ko e māʻolunga ʻoe selupi ʻe taha ko e hanga ʻe uofulu pea ne pehē foki ʻae selupi ʻe taha.

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;

Pea naʻa ne fokotuʻu ʻae ongo selupi ki he potu fale ki loto; pea naʻe mafola atu ʻae kapakau ʻoe ongo selupi, pea naʻe lave ai ʻae kapakau ʻe taha ki he holisi fale, kae lave ʻae kapakau ʻoe selupi ʻe taha ki he holisi ʻe taha; pea naʻe felaveʻi ʻa hona kapakau ʻi loto fale.

28 and he overlays the cherubim with gold,

Pea naʻa ne ʻufiʻufi ʻae ongo selupi ʻaki ʻae koula.

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.

Pea naʻa ne tongitongi takatakai ki he ngaahi holisi ʻoe fale ʻae ngaahi fakatātā ki he selupimi, mo e ʻakau ko e ponga, pea mo e ngaahi fisiʻiʻakau kuo tatala, ʻi loto mo tuʻa.

30 And he has overlaid the floor of the house with gold, inside and outside;

Pea naʻa ne ʻufiʻufi ʻaki ʻae koula ʻae faliki ʻoe fale ʻi loto mo ʻi tuʻa.

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].

Pea ki he hūʻanga ʻoe folofolaʻanga naʻa ne ngaohi ʻae ngaahi matapā ʻoe ʻakau ko e ʻolive: ko hono ʻakau fakalava mo e kau matapā ko e konga ʻe nima.

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.

Ko e ongo matapā foki ko e ʻakau ʻolive; pea naʻa ne tongitongi ki ai ʻae fakatātā ki he selupimi, mo e ʻakau ko e ponga, mo e fisiʻiʻakau naʻe matala, pea ne ʻufiʻufi ʻaki ia ʻae koula, mo ne ʻaofi ʻaki ʻae koula ʻae selupimi, pea mo e ngaahi ʻakau ko e ponga.

33 And so he has made for the opening of the temple, doorposts of the oil-tree, from the fourth [of the wall].

Naʻe pehē foki ʻa ʻene ngaohi ki he matapā ʻoe falelotu ʻae pou ʻoe ʻakau ko e ʻolive; ko e ponga ʻe fā.

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.

Pea ko hono matapā ʻe ua naʻe ʻoe ʻakau ko e paini; naʻe faʻa mapelu ʻae potu ʻe ua ʻoe matapā ʻe taha, pea naʻe faʻa mapelu ʻae potu ʻe ua ʻoe matapā kehe ʻe taha.

35 And he has carved cherubim, and palms, and openings of flowers, and overlaid the carved work with straightened gold.

Pea naʻa ne tongitongi ki ai ʻae selupimi mo e ngaahi ʻakau ko e ponga mo e fisiʻiʻakau naʻe matala: pea naʻa ne ʻaofi ʻaki ia ʻae koula naʻe ʻai ke tatau mo e ngāue tongitongi.

36 And he builds the inner court, three rows of hewn work, and a row of beams of cedar.

Pea naʻa ne langa ʻae lotoʻā ki loto ʻaki ʻae ʻotu maka ʻe tolu naʻe teuteuʻi, pea mo e ʻotu ʻe taha ʻoe lalanga sita.

37 In the fourth year the house of YHWH has been founded, in the month of Ziv,

Naʻe fakatoka ʻae tuʻunga ʻoe fale ʻo Sihova ʻi hono fā ʻoe taʻu, ʻi he māhina ko Sifi:

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.

Pea ʻi hono hongofulu ma taha ʻoe taʻu, ʻi he māhina ko Puli, ʻaia ko hono valu ʻoe māhina, naʻe fakaʻosi ʻae fale ʻi hono potu kotoa pē, ʻo fakatatau ki hono anga kotoa pē. Ko ia, naʻa ne fitu taʻu ʻi heʻene langa hake ia.
