< 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,
Awo Sulemaani n’atandika okuzimba yeekaalu ya Mukama mu Yerusaalemi ku lusozi Moliya, Mukama gye yalabikira Dawudi kitaawe, ekifo Dawudi kye yali alonze ku gguuliro lya Olunaani Omuyebusi.
2 and he begins to build in the second [day], in the second month, in the fourth year of his reign.
Yatandika okugizimba mu mwezi ogwokubiri mu mwaka ogwokuna ogw’obufuzi bwe.
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.
Omusingi Sulemaani gwe yasima ogwa yeekaalu ya Katonda gwali obuwanvu mita amakumi abiri mu musanvu ng’obugazi mita mwenda, mu kukozesa ebipimo okw’edda.
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.
Ekisasi ekyali mu maaso ga yeekaalu kyali obuwanvu mita mwenda n’obugazi nga kye kimu, n’obugulumivu kyali mita mwenda. Munda mu yeekaalu n’asiigamu ne zaabu ennongoofu.
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,
Mu kisenge ekinene n’assaamu embaawo ez’emiberosi, ne munda waakyo n’akisiiga ne zaabu ennongoofu, ate era n’akitimba n’enkindu n’emikuufu.
6 and he overlays the house with precious stone for beauty, and the gold [is] gold of Parvaim,
N’ayonja yeekaalu n’amayinja ag’omuwendo, ne zaabu gwe yakozesa yali zaabu owa Paluvayimu.
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.
Ku myango, ne ku miryango, ne ku bisenge ne ku nzigi za yeekaalu, byonna n’abisiigako zaabu; ate era n’awoola ne bakerubi ku bisenge.
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;
N’azimba n’Ekifo Ekitukuvu Ennyo, ng’obuwanvu kyenkanankana obugazi bwa yeekaalu, obuwanvu kyali mita mwenda n’obugazi mita mwenda. Munda waakyo n’asiigamu ttani amakumi abiri mu ssatu eza zaabu ennongoofu.
9 and the weight of the nails [is] fifty shekels of gold, and he has covered the upper chambers with gold.
Obuzito bw’emisumaali bwali desimoolo mukaaga era nga gya zaabu.
10 And he makes two cherubim in the most holy house, image work, and he overlays them with gold;
Mu Kifo Ekitukuvu Ennyo n’abajjirayo bakerubi babiri n’abasiiga ne zaabu.
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.
Obugazi bw’ebiwaawaatiro bya bakerubi bwali mita mwenda, ng’ekimu obuwanvu bwakyo kiri mita bbiri ne desimoolo ssatu, nga kituuka ku kisenge kya yeekaalu, n’ekirala obuwanvu nga kiri mita bbiri ne desimoolo ssatu, nga kituuka ku kerubi omulala.
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.
N’ekiwaawaatiro kya kerubi omulala kyali obuwanvu mita bbiri ne desimoolo ssatu nga kituuka ku ludda lw’ekisenge kya yeekaalu ekirala, n’ekiwaawaatiro ekirala obuwanvu nga kiri mita bbiri ne desimoolo ssatu, nga kituuka ku kerubi oli omulala.
13 The wings of these cherubim are spreading forth twenty cubits, and they are standing on their feet and their faces [are] inward.
Obuwanvu bw’ebiwaawaatiro bya bakerubi bwali mita mwenda awamu, era baasimbibwa ku bigere byabwe, nga batunuuliraganye.
14 And he makes the veil of blue, and purple, and crimson, and fine linen, and causes cherubim to go up on it.
N’akola olutimbe nga lulimu bbululu, effulungu, era nga lutwakaavu, ne bafuta ennungi n’alukubako ebifaananyi bya bakerubi.
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.
Mu maaso ga yeekaalu yassaawo empagi bbiri, obuwanvu bwazo mita kkumi na mukaaga, nga buli emu ku zo eriko omutwe ogwenkana mita bbiri ne desimoolo ssatu.
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.
N’akola emikuufu mu kifo eky’omunda awasinzirwa okwogera n’agissa ku mitwe gy’empagi, ate era n’akola n’amakomamawanga kikumi, n’agateeka ku mikuufu egyo.
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.
N’asimba empagi mu maaso ga yeekaalu, emu ku luuyi olw’ebugwanjuba obwa ddyo, n’endala ku luuyi olw’ebugwanjuba obwa kkono. Ey’oku luuyi olw’ebugwanjuba obwa ddyo yagituuma Yakini, n’eyo ku luuyi olw’ebugwanjuba obwa kkono n’agituuma Bowaazi.
