< 2 Chronicles 3 >

1 And Solomon begins to build the house of YHWH in Jerusalem, on the mount of Moriah where He appeared to his father David, in the place that David had prepared, in the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite,
所羅門就在耶路撒冷、耶和華向他父大衛顯現的摩利亞山上,就是耶布斯人阿珥楠的禾場上、大衛所指定的地方預備好了,開工建造耶和華的殿。
2 and he begins to build in the second [day], in the second month, in the fourth year of his reign.
所羅門作王第四年二月初二日開工建造。
3 And [in] these Solomon has been instructed to build the house of God: the length [in] cubits by the former measure [is] sixty cubits, and the breadth twenty cubits.
所羅門建築上帝殿的根基,乃是這樣:長六十肘,寬二十肘,都按着古時的尺寸。
4 As for the porch that [is] on the front, the length [is] by the front of the breadth of the house—twenty cubits, and the height one hundred and twenty [[or twenty]], and he overlays it within with pure gold.
殿前的廊子長二十肘,與殿的寬窄一樣,高一百二十肘;裏面貼上精金。
5 And he has covered the large house with fir-trees, and he covers it with fine gold, and causes palms and chains to ascend on it,
大殿的牆都用松木板遮蔽,又貼了精金,上面雕刻棕樹和鍊子;
6 and he overlays the house with precious stone for beauty, and the gold [is] gold of Parvaim,
又用寶石裝飾殿牆,使殿華美;所用的金子都是巴瓦音的金子。
7 and he covers the house, the beams, the thresholds, and its walls, and its doors, with gold, and has engraved cherubim on the walls.
又用金子貼殿和殿的棟樑、門檻、牆壁、門扇;牆上雕刻基路伯。
8 And he makes the most holy house: its length by the front of the breadth of the house—twenty cubits, and its breadth twenty cubits, and he covers it with six hundred talents of fine gold;
又建造至聖所,長二十肘,與殿的寬窄一樣,寬也是二十肘;貼上精金,共用金子六百他連得。
9 and the weight of the nails [is] fifty shekels of gold, and he has covered the upper chambers with gold.
金釘重五十舍客勒。樓房都貼上金子。
10 And he makes two cherubim in the most holy house, image work, and he overlays them with gold;
在至聖所按造像的法子造兩個基路伯,用金子包裹。
11 as for the wings of the cherubim, their length [is] twenty cubits, the wing of the one [is] five cubits, touching the wall of the house, and the other wing [is] five cubits, touching the wing of the other cherub.
兩個基路伯的翅膀共長二十肘。這基路伯的一個翅膀長五肘,挨着殿這邊的牆;那一個翅膀也長五肘,與那基路伯翅膀相接。
12 And the wing of the other cherub [is] five cubits touching the wall of the house, and the other wing [is] five cubits, adhering to the wing of the other cherub.
那基路伯的一個翅膀長五肘,挨着殿那邊的牆;那一個翅膀也長五肘,與這基路伯的翅膀相接。
13 The wings of these cherubim are spreading forth twenty cubits, and they are standing on their feet and their faces [are] inward.
兩個基路伯張開翅膀,共長二十肘,面向外殿而立。
14 And he makes the veil of blue, and purple, and crimson, and fine linen, and causes cherubim to go up on it.
又用藍色、紫色、朱紅色線和細麻織幔子,在其上繡出基路伯來。
15 And he makes two pillars at the front of the house, thirty-five cubits in length, and the ornament that [is] on their heads [is] five cubits.
在殿前造了兩根柱子,高三十五肘;每柱頂高五肘。
16 And he makes chains in the oracle, and puts [them] on the heads of the pillars, and makes one hundred pomegranates, and puts [them] on the chains.
又照聖所內鍊子的樣式做鍊子,安在柱頂上;又做一百石榴,安在鍊子上。
17 And he raises up the pillars on the front of the temple, one on the right and one on the left, and calls the name of that on the right Jachin, and the name of that on the left Boaz.
將兩根柱子立在殿前,一根在右邊,一根在左邊;右邊的起名叫雅斤,左邊的起名叫波阿斯。
