< 1 Kings 6 >

1 It happened in the four hundred and eightieth year after the children of Israel had come out of the land of Egypt, in the fourth year of Solomon's reign over Israel, in the month Ziv, which is the second month, that he began to build the house of the LORD.
Solomọn bidoro iwu ụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị ahụ nʼọnwa Zif, bụ ọnwa nke abụọ nʼafọ nke anọ nke ịbụ eze ya. Ọ bụkwa nʼafọ nke mere ya narị afọ anọ na iri afọ asatọ site nʼoge ndị Izrel si nʼala Ijipt pụta.
2 The house which king Solomon built for the LORD, its length was one hundred three feet and four inches, and its breadth thirty-four feet and five inches, and its height fifty-one feet and eight inches.
Ụlọnsọ nke eze Solomọn wuuru Onyenwe anyị dị iri mita abụọ na asaa nʼogologo, mita itoolu nʼobosara, ebe ịla elu ya dịkwa mita iri na anọ.
3 The porch before the temple of the house, thirty-four feet and five inches was its length, according to the breadth of the house. Seventeen feet and three inches was its breadth before the house.
Mpụta ọnụ ụlọ nke dị nʼihu ụlọ ezumezu nke ụlọnsọ ahụ dị mita itoolu nʼogologo nke gbakwunyere ihe nʼobosara ụlọnsọ ahụ, dịrịkwa mita anọ na ọkara nʼobosara ya.
4 For the house he made windows of fixed lattice work.
O meere ụlọnsọ ahụ oghereikuku kpara nkpa nʼime ma saa mbara nʼezi, nʼebe elu elu mgbidi ụlọ ahụ.
5 Against the wall of the house he built stories all around, against the walls of the house all around, both of the temple and of the inner sanctuary; and he made side-rooms all around.
Nʼakụkụ mgbidi ụlọ ezumezu ahụ nakwa mgbidi nke ime ebe nsọ ahụ, o wuru okpukpu gburugburu ụlọ ahụ, nke nwere ọtụtụ ụlọ nta dị iche iche gbaa gburugburu.
6 The lowest story was eight feet and seven inches broad, and the middle was ten feet and four inches broad, and the third was twelve feet and one inch broad; for on the outside he made offsets in the wall of the house all around, that the beams should not have hold in the walls of the house.
Obosara okpukpu ụlọ nke dịkarịsịrị ala bụ mita abụọ na ọkara, obosara okpukpu nke ụlọ etiti dị mita atọ, otu a kwa, obosara okpukpu ụlọ nke atọ dị mita atọ na ọkara. Mgbe e wuru mgbidi gbara ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ gburugburu, e wukwara ihe dịka aka nʼakụkụ mgbidi ahụ niile. Ọ bụ nʼelu ihe ndị a dịka aka ka e dokwasịrị osisi e ji wuo ọnụụlọ nta ndị ahụ. Nʼụzọ dị otu a, ka e ji gbochie ịmanye ihe ọbụla nʼaja ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ.
7 The house, when it was in building, was built of stone prepared at the quarry; and there was neither hammer nor axe nor any tool of iron heard in the house, while it was in building.
Mgbe a na-ewu ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ, ọ bụ naanị nkume awara nke ọma nʼebe a nọ gwupụta ha ka eji wuo ya. O nweghị onye nụrụ ụzụ itipịa nkume, maọbụ ụzụ ịwa osisi, maọbụ ụdị mkpọtụ ahụ ngwa ọrụ mkpirisi igwe na-eme, nʼebe a nọ wuo ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ, mgbe a na-ewu ya.
8 And the door for the lowest side-rooms was in the right side of the house: and they went up by winding stairs into the middle story, and out of the middle into the third.
Ọnụ ụzọ e si abata nʼọnụ ụlọ ndị dị nʼokpukpu ụlọ elu nke mbụ dị nʼakụkụ aka nri nke ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ. E nwekwara ụzọ nrigo e wuru e si abanye nʼọnụ ụlọ ndị dị nʼokpukpu ndị dị nʼetiti. A na-esitekwa na nke a rigoro ruo na nke atọ.
9 So he built the house, and finished it; and he covered the house with beams and planks of cedar.
Mgbe o wusiri ụlọnsọ ukwu a, Solomọn jiri ibe osisi na osisi dị obosara e si nʼosisi sida mepụta, wuo ihe mgbachị elu ụlọ ahụ.
10 He built the stories against all the house, each eight feet and seven inches high: and they rested on the house with timber of cedar.
O wuru ọtụtụ ọnụụlọ nta nʼakụkụ mgbidi gbara ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ gburugburu. Ọ bụkwa osisi sida ka e ji jikọta mgbidi ụlọ ahụ na ọnụụlọ nta ndị ahụ. Ịdị elu nke ọbụla nʼime ha bụ mita abụọ na ọkara.
11 The word of the LORD came to Solomon, saying,
Okwu Onyenwe anyị rutere Solomọn ntị,
12 "Concerning this house which you are building, if you will walk in my statutes, and execute my ordinances, and keep all my commandments to walk in them; then will I establish my word with you, which I spoke to David your father.
“Banyere ụlọnsọ ukwu a i na-ewu, ọ bụrụ na i mee ihe m gwara gị, gbasoo ihe niile m nyere gị nʼiwu, ma mezuo okwu m niile, aga m esite na gị mezuo nkwa ahụ m kwere nna gị Devid.
13 I will dwell among the children of Israel, and will not forsake my people Israel."
Aga m ebikwa nʼetiti ndị Izrel, agaghị m ahapụkwa ndị m, Izrel.”
14 So Solomon built the house, and finished it.
Emesịa, Solomọn wusiri ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ.
15 He built the walls of the house within with boards of cedar: from the floor of the house to the walls of the ceiling, he covered them on the inside with wood; and he covered the floor of the house with boards of fir.
O ji osisi sida dị obosara machie ahụ ime ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ site nʼakụkụ ala ruo nʼelu ya. E jikwa osisi junipa machie ala ụlọ ahụ niile.
16 He built thirty-four feet and five inches on the back part of the house with boards of cedar from the floor to the beams, and he built this within as an inner sanctuary, the most holy place.
O ji osisi sida kewapụta ihe ruru mita itoolu nʼazụ ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ, site nʼala ụlọ ahụ ruo nʼelu, nʼihi iwepụta site nʼụlọnsọ ahụ, ime ime ebe nsọ, nke bụ Ebe Kachasị Nsọ.
17 In front of the temple sanctuary was sixty-eight feet and eleven inches.
Ụlọ ezumezu nke dị nʼihu ọnụụlọ a dị iri mita na asatọ.
18 And the inside of the house was cedar, carved with buds and open flowers: all was cedar; there was no stone seen.
Ahụ ime ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ bụ osisi sida, nke a tụrụ ihe ọtụtụ nke oyiyi afụfa ọhịa na okoko osisi wasara awasa nʼelu ya. Ihe niile dị nʼime ụlọ ahụ bụ osisi sida, adịghị ahụ nkume ọbụla anya.
19 He prepared an inner sanctuary in the midst of the house within, to set there the ark of the covenant of the LORD.
Ọ kwadokwara ebe nsọ ahụ, ebe dị nʼime ime ụlọ ahụ, maka idebe igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị nʼebe ahụ.
20 And before the sanctuary was thirty-four feet and five inches in length, and thirty-four feet and five inches in breadth, and thirty-four feet and five inches in its height; and he overlaid it with pure gold. And he made the altar of cedar.
Ime ime ebe nsọ ahụ, dị mita iri nʼogologo, obosara ya dịkwa mita iri, ịdị elu ya dịkwa mita iri. O ji ọlaedo a nụchara anụcha machie ahụ ime ụlọ a niile, jiri osisi sida machie ebe nchụaja ya.
21 So Solomon overlaid the house within with pure gold, and he drew chains of gold across, in front of the inner sanctuary, and he overlaid it with gold.
Solomọn ji ọlaedo a nụchara anụcha machie ahụ ime ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ. Ọ gbatịrị ụdọ ọlaedo gafere nʼihu ime ime ebe nsọ ahụ, nke e jikwa ọlaedo machie.
22 The whole house he overlaid with gold, until all the house was finished: also the whole altar that belonged to the inner sanctuary he overlaid with gold.
Ya mere, o ji ọlaedo machie ime ya niile. O jikwa ọlaedo machie ebe ịchụ aja nke dịịrị ime ime ebe nsọ ahụ.
23 In the inner sanctuary he made two cherubim of olive wood, each seventeen feet and three inches high.
O mere cherubim abụọ, nke e ji osisi oliv tụọ nʼime ime ebe nsọ ahụ, ịdị elu nke ọbụla bụ mita ise.
24 Eight feet and seven inches was the one wing of the cherub, and eight feet and seven inches the other wing of the cherub: from the uttermost part of the one wing to the uttermost part of the other were seventeen feet and three inches.
Cherub nke mbụ nwere nku abụọ, otu nku dị mita abụọ na ụma atọ nʼogologo, nku nke ọzọ dịkwa mita abụọ na ụma atọ nʼogologo. Ya bụ, mita ise site na ụma isii, site nʼọnụ otu nku ruo nʼọnụ nku nke ọzọ.
25 The other cherub was seventeen feet and three inches: both the cherubim were of one measure and one form.
Cherub nke abụọ dịkwa iri mita na ụma isii, nʼihi na cherubim abụọ ndị a bụ otu nʼọtụtụ nakwa nʼibu ibu.
26 The height of the one cherub was seventeen feet and three inches, and so was it of the other cherub.
Ịdị elu nke cherub ọbụla ruru mita ise na ụma isii.
27 He set the cherubim within the inner house; and the wings of the cherubim were stretched forth, so that the wing of the one touched the one wall, and the wing of the other cherub touched the other wall; and their wings touched one another in the midst of the house.
O tinyere cherubim ndị a nke gbasapụrụ nku ha nʼime ime Ebe Nsọ Kachasị Nsọ nke ụlọnsọ ukwu. Ọnụ ọnụ nke nku cherub ọbụla na-emetụ otu akụkụ ahụ ụlọ ahụ, ebe ọnụ ọnụ nke nku cherub ọbụla na-emetụ na nke ibe ya nʼetiti ọnụụlọ ahụ.
28 He overlaid the cherubim with gold.
O jiri ọlaedo machie cherubim ndị ahụ.
29 He carved all the walls of the house around with carved figures of cherubim and palm trees and open flowers, inside and outside.
Nʼahụ aja ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ gbaa gburugburu, ma nʼime ọnụụlọ nke dị nʼime na ndị dị na mpụta, ka ọ pịkwasịrị oyiyi cherubim, osisi nkwụ na okoko osisi wara awa.
30 The floor of the house he overlaid with gold, inside and outside.
O jikwa ọlaedo machie ala ụlọ nke ọnụụlọ niile dị nʼime ụlọ, na ọnụụlọ ndị dị na mpụta ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ.
31 For the entrance of the inner sanctuary he made doors of olive wood: the lintel and door posts were a fifth part of the wall.
O ji osisi oliv mee ibo ọnụ ụzọ mbata nke ime ime ebe nsọ ahụ, osisi ndị a bụ otu ụzọ nʼụzọ ise nke obosara ebe nsọ ahụ.
32 So he made two doors of olive wood; and he carved on them carvings of cherubim and palm trees and open flowers, and overlaid them with gold; and he spread the gold on the cherubim, and on the palm trees.
Nʼahụ ibo abụọ ahụ nke si nʼosisi oliv, ọ tụnyere oyiyi cherubim abụọ, igu nkwụ na okoko osisi wara awa. O ji ọlaedo etipịara etipịa machie oyiyi cherubim na igu nkwụ ndị ahụ.
33 So also he made for the entrance of the temple door posts of olive wood, out of a fourth part of the wall;
Otu a kwa, o ji osisi oliv mee mbudo ibo ọnụ ụzọ e si abata nʼụlọ ezumezu ahụ, nke bụ otu ụzọ na nkewa anọ nke obosara ụlọ ezumezu ahụ.
34 and two doors of fir wood: the two leaves of the one door were folding, and the two leaves of the other door were folding.
O jikwa osisi junipa mee ibo abụọ a na-emechikọta nʼotu.
35 He carved cherubim and palm trees and open flowers; and he overlaid them with gold fitted on the engraved work.
Ọ pịrị oyiyi cherubim na oyiyi nkwụ, na oyiyi okoko osisi wara awa, jiri ọlaedo techie ibo ndị ahụ na oyiyi a pịkwasịrị ha.
36 He built the inner court with three courses of cut stone, and a course of cedar beams.
O wuru ogige nʼime ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ. Ọ bụ ahịrị nkume atọ e doziri edozi na otu ahịrị osisi sida a kwachara nke ọma ka e ji wuo ogige a.
37 In the fourth year was the foundation of the house of the LORD laid, in the month Ziv.
Ọ bụ nʼọnwa Ziv, nʼafọ nke anọ, nke ịbụ eze Solomọn ka a tọrọ ntọala ụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị.
38 In the eleventh year, in the month Bul, which is the eighth month, was the house finished throughout all its parts, and according to all its fashion. So was he seven years in building it.
Ọ bụ nʼime afọ iri na otu, nʼọnwa Bul, ya bụ ọnwa nke asatọ, ka e wusiri ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ, nʼihe niile ya dịka ntụziaka e nyere si dị. Ọ bụ afọ asaa ka o weere ya i ji rụchaa ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ.
