1 And he made an altar of bronze, twenty cubits, the length thereof, and, twenty cubits, the breadth thereof, —and, ten cubits, the height thereof.
Wasesenza ilathi lethusi, ubude balo buzingalo ezingamatshumi amabili, lobubanzi balo buzingalo ezingamatshumi amabili, lokuphakama kwalo kuzingalo ezilitshumi.
2 And he made a molten sea, —ten—by the cubit, from the one brim thereof into the other brim thereof, it was round all about, and, five—by the cubit, was the height thereof, and, a line—of thirty by the cubit, did compass it round about.

3 And, the likeness of oxen, was under it round about on every side, encircling it, ten in a cubit, going round the sea, on every side, -two rows of oxen, made in the casting.
Lokufanana kwenkabi kwakungaphansi kwalo, kubhodabhoda inhlangothi zonke zalo, ezilitshumi engalweni, lugombolozela ulwandle inhlangothi zonke; imizila emibili yenkabi yabunjwa ngokuncibilikisa ekubunjweni kwalo.
4 It was standing on twelve oxen, three, looking toward the north, and, three, looking toward the west, and, three, looking toward the south, and, three, looking toward the east, the sea, being upon them above, —and, all their hinder parts, inward.
Lwalumi phezu kwenkabi ezilitshumi lambili; ezintathu zikhangele enyakatho, lezintathu zikhangele entshonalanga, lezintathu zikhangele eningizimu, lezintathu zikhangele empumalanga; lolwandle lwaluphezu kwazo phezulu, lazo zonke ingemuva zazo zazingaphakathi.
5 And, the thickness thereof, was a hand-breadth, and, the brim thereof, was like the brim-work of a cup, with blossoms of lilies, —it could hold [many] baths, three thousand, would it contain.
Uhlonzi lwalo lwaluyibubanzi besandla, lomphetho walo wawunjengomsebenzi womphetho wenkezo, njengeluba lomduze, lwalumumethe amabhathi, lumumethe azinkulungwane ezintathu.
6 And he made ten lavers, and set five on the right hand—and five on the left, to bathe therein, what is offered as an ascending-sacrifice, do they rinse therein, —but, the sea, was, that the priests should bathe therein.
Wasesenza inditshi zokugezela ezilitshumi, wabeka ezinhlanu ngakwesokunene, lezinhlanu ngakwesokhohlo, ukugezisela kizo; babegezisela kizo okomnikelo wokutshiswa; kodwa ulwandle lwalungolwabapristi ukugezela kulo.
7 And he made ten lampstands of gold according to the regulation thereof, —and set in the temple, five, on the right hand, and, five, on the left.
Wasesenza izinti zezibane zegolide ezilitshumi njengokumiswa kwazo, wazibeka ethempelini, ezinhlanu ngakwesokunene, lezinhlanu ngakwesokhohlo.
8 And he made ten tables, and placed in the temple, five, on the right hand, and, five, on the left, —and he made a hundred tossing bowls of gold.
Wenza lamatafula alitshumi, wawabeka ethempelini, amahlanu ngakwesokunene, lamahlanu ngakwesokhohlo. Wenza lemiganu elikhulu yegolide.
9 And he made the court of the priests, and the large enclosure, —and doors to the enclosure, and, the doors thereof, overlaid he with bronze.
Wenza leguma labapristi leguma elikhulu, lezivalo zeguma, wazihuqa izivalo zalo ngethusi.
10 And, the sea, he set on the right side of the house, eastward over against the south.
Wasebeka ulwandle ehlangothini lokunene ngasempumalanga maqondana leningizimu.
11 And Huram made—the pans, and the shovels, and the tossing bowls, —and Huram finished doing the work, which he did for King Solomon, in the house of God: —
UHuramu wasesenza izimbiza lamafotsholo lemiganu yokufafaza. UHuramu waqeda ukwenza umsebenzi ayewenzela inkosi uSolomoni endlini kaNkulunkulu.
12 two pillars, and the bowls and the capitals on the top of the two pillars, and the two frames of checker work, to cover the two bowls of the capitals, which were on the top of the pillars;
Insika ezimbili, lemiganu, leziduku phezu kwengqonga yezinsika ezimbili, lamambule amabili okwembesa imiganu emibili yeziduku ezaziphezu kwengqonga yezinsika,
13 and four hundred pomegranates, for the two frames, -two rows of pomegranates, for each frame, for covering the two bowls of the capitals, which were on the face of the pillars;
lamapomegranati angamakhulu amane emambuleni womabili, imizila emibili yamapomegranati kulelo lalelombule, okwembesa imiganu emibili yeziduku ezaziphezu kwengqonga yezinsika.
14 and, the stands, made he, —and, the lavers, made he upon the stands;
Wenza lezisekelo, wenza lezinditshi zokugezela phezu kwezisekelo;
15 the one sea, —and the twelve oxen under it;
ulwandle olulodwa, lezinkabi ezilitshumi lambili ngaphansi kwalo.
16 and, the pans and the shovels and the flesh-hooks, and all the vessels, made Huram his father for King Solomon, for the house of Yahweh, —of burnished bronze,
Lezimbiza, lamafotsholo, lamafologwe, lazo zonke izitsha zakho uHuramu Abhi wazenzela inkosi uSolomoni esenzela indlu yeNkosi ngethusi elikhazimulayo.
17 In the circuit of the Jordan, did the king cast them, in the clay ground between Succoth and Zeredah.
Inkosi yazibumbela ngokuncibilikisa emagcekeni eJordani emhlabathini olibumba phakathi kweSukothi leZeredatha.
18 So Solomon made all these utensils, in great abundance, —for the weight of the bronze could not be searched out.
USolomoni wasezenza zonke lezizitsha ngobunengi obukhulu, ngoba isisindo sethusi sasingehlolwe.
19 Yea Solomon made all the utensils which were for the house of God, —and the altar of gold, and the tables, whereon was the Presence-bread;
USolomoni wazenza-ke zonke izitsha ezazingezendlu kaNkulunkulu, lelathi legolide, lamatafula okwakukhona kuwo izinkwa zokubukiswa,
20 and the lamp-holders and their lamps, that they should burn according to the regulation before the shrine, of purified gold;
lezinti zezibane lezibane zazo ngegolide elicwengekileyo, ukuthi zibhebhe ngokwesimiso phambi kwendawo yelizwi;
21 and the blossom-work, and the lamps, and the tongs, of gold, —the same, was the purest gold;
lamaluba lezibane lezindlawu, ngegolide, kwakuligolide elipheleleyo;
22 and the snuffers and the bowls and the spoons and the censers, of purified gold, —and the entrance of the house, the inner doors thereof for the holy of holies, and the doors of the house of the temple, were of gold.
