1 Kings 6
1 480 years after the Israeli people left Egypt, during the fourth year that Solomon ruled Israel, early in May, Solomon’s workers began to build the temple.
EIA kekahi, i ka makahiki eha haneri me kanawalu mahope mai o ka puka ana mai o na mamo a Iseraeia mai ka aina mai o Aigupita, i ka ha o ka makahiki o ko Solomona alii ana maluna o ka Iseraela, i ka malama o Zifa, oia ka malama alua, i hoomaka ae ai oia e kukulu i ka hale no Iehova.
2 Inside, [the main part of] the temple was 90 feet long, 30 feet wide, and 45 feet high.
A o ka hale a Solomona ke alii i hana aku ai no Iehova, kanaono kubita kona loa, a o kona laula he iwakalua kubita, a o kona kiekie he kanakolu kubita.
3 The entrance room was 15 feet long and 30 feet wide, just as wide as the main part of the temple.
A o ka lanai mamua o ka luakini o ka hale, he iwakalua kubita ka loa e like me ka laula o ka hale, he umi kubita hoi kona laula mamua o ka hale.
4 There were windows in [the walls of] the temple. The windows were narrower on the outside than on the inside.
Hana iho la oia i na puka makani he ololi kahi malamalama.
5 Against the two sides and against the back of the temple walls, they built a structure/building that had rooms in it. [This structure had three levels/stories and each was 7-1/2 feet high].
Ma ka paia o ka hale a puni i hana'i oia i na keena a puni na paia o ka hale, o ka luakini a me kahi o olelo ai; a hana ae oia i na papa a puni.
6 [Each room in] the lowest level/story was 7-1/2 feet wide. [Each room in] the middle level/story was nine feet wide. [The rooms in] the top level/story were 10-1/2 feet wide. The wall of the temple at the top level/story was thinner than the wall at the middle level/story, and the wall of the middle level/story was thinner than the wall at the bottom level/story. The result was that the rooms could be supported by the wall underneath them, and did not require wooden beams to support them.
O ke keena lalo elima kubita ka laula, a o ka waena, eono kubita ka laula, a o ko kolu ehiku kubita ka laula: no ka mea, mawaho o ka hale i hana i oia i na anuu a puni, i ole e hoopaaia na kaola iloko o na paia o ka hale.
7 The huge stones for [the foundation of] the temple were cut and shaped at the quarry [to become very smooth]. The result was that while the workers were building the temple there was no noise, because they did not use hammers or chisels or any other iron tools there.
A o ka hale i ke kukuluia'na, ua kukuluia'e ia i ka pohaku i hooponoponoia mamua o ka laweia ilaila, aole ka hamare aole hoi ke koi, aole mea hao i loheia maloko o ka halo i kona kukuluia.
8 The entrance to the bottom level/story [of that attached structure] was on the south side of the temple. There were stairs from the bottom level/story to the middle and top level/story.
O ka pukakomo o ko keena waena, aia ma ka aoao akau ia o ka hale: a ma na anuu wili i pii ai lakou a loko o ko keena waena, a mailoko ae o ka waena iloko o ke kolu.
9 So Solomon’s [workers] finished building the [framework of the] temple. They made the ceiling from cedar beams and boards.
Pela ia i hana'i i ka hale a paa, a kau maluna i na kaola a me na papa kedera.
10 They built the structure that had three levels/stories, that was against the walls of the temple. Each level/story was 7-1/2 feet high, and was joined to the temple with cedar beams.
Alaila hana iho la i na keena e pili ana i ka hale a pau, elima kubita ke kiekie, a kau iho la lakou ma ka hale me na laau kedera.
11 Then Yahweh said this to Solomon:
A hiki mai la ka olelo a Iehova ia Solomona peneia,
12 “[I want to tell you] about this temple that you are building. If you continually obey all my statutes and laws and commands, I will do for you what I promised to your father David.
O keia hale au e hana nei, ina e helo oe ma ko'u mau kapu, a e hana ma ko'u mau kanawai, a e malama hoi i ka'u mau kauoha a pau o helo ma ia mau mea, alaila e nooko iho au i ka'u olelo me oe a'u i olelo aku ai ia Davida i kou makuakane.
13 I will live among the Israeli people, [in this temple, ] and I will never abandon them.”
A e noho no au iwaena o na mamo a Iseraela, aole hoi e haalele aku i ko'u poo kanaka i ka Iseraela.
14 Solomon’s [workers] finished building the temple.
Pela i hana'i o Solomona i ka hale a paa ia ia.
15 On the inside, they lined/covered the walls with cedar boards. They lined/covered them from the floor to the ceiling. They made the floor from cypress boards.
A hana iho la oia i koloko o na paia me na papa kedera, mai ka papahehi o ka hale a luna o na paia; a kau ai oia i ka laau maloko, a hoouhi i ko lalo o ka halo mo na papa kaa.
16 Inside the back part of the temple they built an inner room, called the Very Holy Place. It was 30 feet long. All the walls of this room were lined with cedar boards.
A hana iho la oia, ma na aoao o ka hale, he iwakalua kubita, mai ke keehana a hiki i na paia i na papa kedera; hana iho la oia no ia maloko, i wahi e olelo ai, i wahi hoano loa.
17 In front of the Very Holy Place there was a room that was 60 feet long.
He kanaha kubita ka loa o ka hale oia ka luakini i mua ona.
18 The cedar [boards on the walls] inside the temple were decorated with carvings of gourds and flowers. [The walls were] completely covered with cedar boards, with the result that the stones [of the walls behind them] could not be seen.
A o ke kedera o ka hale maloko, ua kalakalaiia he mau kaukama a me na pua mohala: he kedera wale no, aole pohaku i ikeia.
19 At the back of the temple they made the Very Holy Place, where the Sacred Chest would be put.
A o kahi e olelo ai, oia kana i hoomakaukau ai ma ka hale maloko, e waiho malaila i ka pahuberita o Iehova.
20 That room was 30 feet long, 30 feet wide, and 30 feet high. They covered the walls with [very thin sheets of] pure gold. [For burning incense] they also made an altar of cedar [boards].
A o kahi e olelo ai ma ka mua he iwakalua kubita ka loa, a he iwakalua kubita ka laula, a he iwakalua kubita ke kiekie ona: a hoouhi ae la oia ia me ko gula maemae, a hoouhi ae la i ko kuahu kedera.
21 Solomon told them to cover the other walls inside the temple with [very thin sheets of] pure gold and to fasten gold chains across the entrance to the Very Holy Place.
Hoouhi ae la o Solomona i ka hale maloko me ke gula maemae; hana iho la oia i ka paku me na kaula gula ma ke alo o kahi e olelo ai, a hoouhi ae la mo ko gula.
22 They covered all the walls of the temple and the altar that was outside the Very Holy Place with [very thin sheets of] gold.
A o ka hale a pau kana i hoouhi ai me ke gula a hiki i ka hoopaa ana i ka hale a puni, a me ke kuahu okoa e pili ana i kahi e olelo ai kana i hoouhi ai me ke gula.
23 Inside the Very Holy Place, they made from olive tree wood [large statues of] two creatures with wings. Each one was 15 feet tall.
A maloko o kahi e olelo ai, i hana'i oia i na keruba elua he laau oliva, he umi kubita ke kiekie.
24 They each were the same size and had the same shape. They each had two wings [which were spread out]. Each wing was 7-1/2 feet long, with the result that the distance between the outer ends of the two wings was 15 feet.
Elima kubita kekahi eheu o ke keruba, a elima kubita kekahi eheu o ko keruba; mai ka welau o kekahi eheu a ka welau o kekahi eheu he umi kubita.
He umi kubita kekahi keruba. Hookahi ana o na keruba elua, ua like ko laua nui.
Ke kiekie o kekahi keruba he umi kubita, a pela ko kekahi keruba.
27 They put those statues next to each other in the Very Holy Place so that the wing of the one touched the one wing of the other in the center of the room, and the outer wings touched the walls.
Hooku ae la hoi oia i na keruba maloko o ka hale iloko loa; a hoholaia'e la na eheu o na keruba, i pa ka eheu o kekahi i ka paia, a pa ka eheu o kekahi keruba i kekahi paia, a iwaena konu o ka hale i pa ai kekahi eheu i kekahi eheu.
28 They covered the statues with [very thin sheets of] gold.
A hoouhi ao la hoi oia i na keruba me ke gula.
29 [Solomon told them to] decorate the walls of the main room and the Very Holy Place by carving representations of winged creatures and palm trees and flowers.
A kalakalai ae la hoi oia i na paia a pau o ka hale a puni i na kii kalaiia o na keruba, a me na laau pama, a me na pua mohala, maloko a mawaho.
30 They also covered the floor of both rooms with [very thin sheets of] gold.
A o ka papakeehana o ka hale kana i hoouhi ai me ke gula maloko a mawaho hoi.
31 They made a set of doors from olive tree wood, and placed them at the entrance to the Very Holy Place. The doorposts joined at the top to form a pointed arch.
A no ka puka o kahi e olelo ai, i hana'i oia i na pani laau oliva, a o ka lapauila a me na laauku, o ka hapalima no ia.
32 The doors were decorated by carving on them representations of winged creatures, palm trees, and flowers. All of these things were covered with [very thin sheets of] gold.
He laau oliva na pani elua, a kalai iho la oia ma ia mau mea i ke kalakalai ana o na keruba, a me na laau pama, a me na pua mohala, a hoouhi ae la ia mau mea me ke gula, a kapili ae la hoi i ke gula ma na keruba a me na laau pama.
33 They made a rectangular door frame from olive tree wood, and put it [between the entrance room and] the main room.
Pela hoi i hana'i oia no ka puka o ka luakini i na laauku oliva he hapaha.
34 They made two folding doors from cypress wood [and fastened them to the door frame].
A o na pani elua he laau kaa; a o na aoao elua o kekahi pani e pelu ana ia, a o na aoao elua o ke kahi pani, e pelu ana no ia.
35 The doors were also decorated with wood carvings of winged creatures, palm trees, and flowers, and they were also covered evenly with [very thin sheets of] gold.
Kalai ae la hoi oia malaila i na keruba, a me na laau pama, a me na pua mohala; a hoouhi hoi me ke gula i hooku pono ia i ka mea i kalaiia.
36 They built a courtyard in front of the temple. The walls around the courtyard were made of cedar and stone; to make the walls, between each layer of cedar beams they put down two layers of stone.
Hana iho la hoi oia i ka pahale loko, me na lalani ekolu o na pohaku i kalaiia, a me ka lalani laau kedera.
37 They laid the foundation of the temple of Yahweh in early May, in the fourth year [that Solomon ruled].
I ka makahiki ha i hoonohoia'i ke kumu o ka hale o Iehova, i ka malama Zifa.
38 In the eleventh year [that he ruled], in the middle of October, they finished building the temple and all of its parts, doing exactly what Solomon told them to do. It required seven years to build it.
A i ka makahiki umikumamakahi, i ka malama Bula, oia ka walu o ka malama, ua paa ka hale a me kona mau mea a pau, mamuli o na kauoha a pau nona. Ehiku makahiki no hoi kana hana ana ia.
