1 Kings 7
1 They also built a palace for Solomon, but it required 13 years to build it.
Solomon ni kum 13 touh thung amae im hah a sak teh, a cum.
2 One of the buildings they constructed was [a] large [ceremonial hall]. It was called the Hall of the Forest of Lebanon. It was 150 feet long, 75 feet wide, and 45 feet high. It was supported/held up by four rows of pillars of [wood from] cedar [trees]. There were 15 pillars in each row. There were cedar beams across each row.
Hote im hah Lebanon ratu thung e thing hoi a sak, ayung dong 100, adangka dong 50, rasang dong 30 touh a pha. Sidar khom 30 touh dawk toung e sidar thing kalannaw dawk sak e doeh.
3 [To support the roof] there were cedar beams that connected the rows of pillars.
Than touh dawkvah hlaipanga touh a pha teh khom 45 touh a pha, avan vah sidar thing koung a phai teh thingphek hoi a kup sin.
4 On each of the two side walls there were three rows of windows.
A ang nahanelah hlalangaw 30 touh kadangka lah avoivang lah ao.
5 All the windows and doorways had rectangular frames. The windows along the long wall on one side faced the windows on the other side.
Thonaw pueng hoi thokhomnaw pueng teh ayung adangka koung a kâvan.
6 They also built another building called the Hall of Pillars. It was 75 feet long and 45 feet wide. It had a covered porch [whose roof was] supported by pillars.
Khomnaw, pangkheknaw hoi sak e vaikhap hai ao teh, ayung dong 50, adangka dong 30 touh a pha.
7 Then they made a building called the Hall of the Throne. It was also called the Hall of Judgment. That was where Solomon decided/judged concerning people’s disputes. The walls were covered with cedar boards, from the floor to the rafters.
Lawkcengnae vaikhap tie lawkcengnae bawitungkhung hungnae vaikhap hai a sak, carawng teh avoivang lah totouh sidar thingphek koung a phai.
8 In the courtyard behind the Hall of Judgment they built a house for Solomon to live in that was made like the other buildings. They also built the same kind of house for his wife, who was the daughter of the king of Egypt.
Ama a onae im hai a hnukkhu a sak e lawkcengnae vaikhap boiboe lah a sak. Solomon ni a yu lah a la e Faro canu hanelah hai im buet touh a sak pouh.
9 All of those buildings and the walls around the palace courtyard were made from costly blocks of stone, from the foundations up to the eaves. The stones were cut [at the quarry], according to the sizes that were needed, and the sides of the stones were shaped by cutting/smoothing them with saws.
Hotnaw pueng teh aphu kaawm poung e talung, boung kâcatcalah dêi e, hlaw hoi a e hoi sak e lah ao. Athunglah hai, alawilah hai, akung koehoi a som totouh kâennae imka ka kaw pui lah sak e lah ao.
10 The foundations were also made from huge blocks of stone [that were prepared at the quarry]. Some of them were twelve feet long and some were fifteen feet long.
Adu hateh talung kalenpounge dong hra touh hoi dong taroe touh e hoi pacoung e lah ao.
11 On top of the foundation stones were other blocks of stone that were cut according to the sizes they needed, and cedar beams.
A lathueng lae teh boung kâcatcalah dêi e talung hoi sidar thing hoi sak e doeh.
12 The palace courtyard, the inner courtyard in front of the temple, and the entrance room of the temple had walls made by putting down three layers of cut stones between each layer of cedar beams.
Petkâkalup lah kalupnae thung imka teh dêi tangcoung e talung than thum touh hoi sidar thing than touh hoi sak e doeh. BAWIPA im kalupnae a thung lae imka hoi vaikhap patetlah sak e doeh.
13 There was a man who lived in Tyre [city] whose name was Huram. He knew how to make very nice things from bronze. His father had also lived in Tyre and had also been very skilled at making things from bronze, but Huram’s father was no longer living. His mother was from the tribe of Naphtali. Huram was very wise and intelligent and was very skilled at making things from bronze. Solomon invited him to come [to Jerusalem and supervise] all the work of making things from bronze, and Huram agreed.
Solomon ni tami a patoun teh Taire tami Hiram hah a kaw.
Hote tami teh Naphtali miphun lahmainu e capa doeh. A na pa teh Taire tami rahum dei ka thoum e doeh. Ahni teh rahum koe lah kutsak ka thoum pounge lah ao. Siangpahrang Solomon koe a tho teh thawnaw pueng hah a tawk pouh.
15 He made two bronze pillars. Each one was 27 feet tall and 18 feet around. Each was hollow, and the walls of the pillars were 3 in./7.4 cm. thick.
Hahoi rahum khom kahni touh a hlun teh, khom kalen e buet touh teh a rasang e dong 18 touh a pha. A len e teh, petkâkalup lah dong hlaikahni touh a pha.
16 He also made two bronze caps to be put on top of the pillars. Each cap was 7-1/2 feet tall.
Khom som dawk bungling hanelah rahumluhuem kahni touh a sak teh, bawilakhung buet touh a rasang dong 5 touh, alouke buet touh e hai a rasang e dong 5 touh a pha.
17 Then he made bronze wreaths of chains to decorate the top part of each pillar.
Tamlawk patetlah tarikcik lah tarik e hoi sumbawtarui patetlah a meikahawicalah tarik e kahni touh khompui a som dawk bungling hanelah a sak. Luhuem buet touh hanelah tamlawk buet touh, alouke bawilakhung buet touh hanelah tamlawk buet touh a sak.
18 He also made bronze [figures that resembled] pomegranates. He put two rows of pomegranates over the top parts of each pillar.
Hot patetvanlah, khompui som dawk e bawilakhung ramuknae tamlawk buet touh dawkvah, petkâkalup lah talepaw 20 touh lah a sak. Alouke bawilakhung hanelah hai hot patetvanlah a sak.
19 The top part over each pillar was shaped like a lily. Each [lily leaf] was six feet tall.
Vaikhap dawk ung e khomsomnaw teh lili pei patetlah ao teh dong pali touh a pha.
20 These top parts were placed on a bowl-shaped section around which was draped the wreaths of chains. He made 200 [figures that represented] pomegranates and put them in two rows around the top/head of each pillar.
Luhuem teh khompui kahni touh e som dawk tamlawk patetlah sak e teng e tâbumlum e lungui ao teh, tale paw cumhni touh hah than hni touh lahoi petkâkalup lah pâthit e lah ao. Hahoi alouke khompui dawk hoi hot patetvanlah ao.
21 His [helpers] set up the pillars in front of the entrance of the temple. The pillar on the south side was named Jakin, and the pillar on the north side was named Boaz.
Bawkim alawilah khompui teh a ung awh. Aranglae khompui teh a kangdue sak awh teh a min lah Jakhin ati. Avoilae khompui teh a kangdue sak teh a min lah Boaz a ti.
22 The bronze top parts that were shaped like lilies were placed on top of the pillars. So Huram and his helpers finished making the bronze pillars.
Khompui som dawk lili pei mei kamnue sak e thaw teh a cum awh.
23 Huram also constructed a very large round bronze tank that was made of metal and cast [in a clay mold]. It was 7-1/2 ft./2.3 meters high, 30 feet/9 meters across/wide, and 45 feet/13.5 meters around it.
Rahum tuiim avanglae a rai koehoi avanglae a rai koe totouh dong hra touh a pha. Arasang e teh dong panga touh. Petkâkalup lah bangnue toteh dong 30 touh a pha.
24 Around the outer edge of the rim of the tank were two rows of gourds that were made of bronze. [But] the gourds [were not cast separately; they] were cast in the same mold as the rest of the tank. For each foot of length around the rim of the tank there were six [figures of] gourds.
Arai rahim dong 30 touh dawk tuiumkung mei ao teh, tuiim hah a longlei. Hahoi tuiumkung mei teh 20 touh lah ao teh, a hlun awh navah mek hlun sin e doeh.
25 Huram [also cast] twelve [bronze statues of] oxen. He placed them to face outward. He placed three of them to face north, three to face west, three to face south, and three to face east. His helpers put the bronze tank on the backs of [the statues of] the oxen.
Hothateh maitotan hlaikahni touh dawk toung e doeh. Kathum touh kanîloumlah a kangvawi awh, kathum touh kanîtholah a kangvawi, kathum touh atunglah a kangvawi, kathum touh akalah a kangvawi. Hahoi tuiim teh hotnaw e van ta e lah ao. A mainaw teh a thung lah koung a kangvawi.
26 The sides [of the tank] were 3 in./8 cm. thick. The rim was like the rim of a cup. It [curved outward, ] like the petals of a lily. [When the tank was full, ] it held about 10,000 gallons [of water].
Rahum teh sum touh a tha teh, arai teh lili pei patetlah manang rai patetlah ao teh bath 2000 touh a cawng ( bath buet touh teh galon 6 touh bang e doeh).
27 Huram also made ten bronze carts. Each was six feet long and six feet wide and 4-1/2 feet tall.
Hahoi pâhungnae hra touh rahum hoi a sak. Pâhungnae buet touh teh dong pali touh a saw. Adangka hai dong pali touh a saw teh arasang e teh dong thum touh a pha.
28 [On the sides of the carts] there were panels which were set in frames.
Pâhungnae saknae teh hettelah doeh. Hote pâhungnae dawk petkâkalup lah a rai ao teh, hote rai dawkvah,
29 On those panels were [bronze figures of] lions, bulls, and winged creatures. Below and above the lions and bulls there were decorations of bronze wreaths.
sendek, maitotan, cherubim mei a kamnue. Hahoi a khom dawk hai sendek hoi maitotan mei a patung a paka lah meikahawicalah pathoup e ao.
30 Each cart had four bronze wheels and two axles made of bronze. At the top corners of each cart were bronze supports to hold up a basin. On these supports were also decorations of bronze wreaths.
Hahoi pâhungnae dawkvah rahum lengkhok pali touh, rahumcung hoi rip ao. A takin pali touh dawk dounnae koung ao. Rahum rahim dounnae tapang dawkvah, a meikahawicalah pathoup e laikawcanaw hah mek a hlun sin awh.
31 On top of each cart, [under each basin, ] was a frame [that resembled] a circular collar. The top of each circular frame was 18 inches above the top of the cart, and the bottom of it was nine inches below the top of the cart. There were also decorations of bronze wreaths on the frame engraved within square panels.
Kawlung arai teh a thung hoi a rai totouh dong touh a pha. A rai teh a tâbuengluengkueng teh a kaw e dong touh hoi tangawn a pha. Arainaw teh ayung adangka suetalah ao teh a em hoi king a kawi.
32 The wheels were 27 inches high. They were below the panels. The wheels were connected to axles that had been cast in the same mold as the rest of the cart.
Lengkhok pali touh e teh, pâhungnae rahim ao awh teh, acungnaw teh pâhungnae hoi a kâkuet, lengkhok teh dong touh hoi tangawn a rasang.
33 The wheels of the carts were like the wheels of chariots. The axles, the rims, the spokes, and the hubs were all cast [from bronze].
Lengkhok teh rangleng khok hoi a kâvan. Acung, acung tabu, a mangnaw hai a hlun sin.
34 At the top corners of each cart there were handles. These were cast in the same mold as the rest of the cart.
Pâhungnae takin pali touh koe pou kâkuen lah hlun e dounnae pali touh ao dawkvah,
35 There was a nine-inch bronze band around the top of each cart. There were braces attached to the corners of each cart. The bands and the braces were cast in the same mold as the rest of the cart.
hote dounnae dawkvah, petkâkalup lah khap touh ka phat e laikaw hah a mawp teh, pâhungnae dawkvah arainaw hoi kuet nahanelah, pâhungnae hoi mek hlun sin e lah ao.
36 The braces and the panels [on the sides of the carts] were also decorated with [figures of] winged creatures, lions, and palm trees, whenever there was space for them, and there were bronze wreaths all around them.
Kuet nahane hoi pâhungnae dawkvah, cherubim, sendek, olivekung emnaw hah lengkaleng a kamnue.
37 That is how Huram made the ten carts. They [were all cast in the same mold, so they] were all alike: They all were the same size and had the same shape.
Hottelah abuemlahoi reikâvan lah kawlung hungnae hra touh a hlun teh a cum.
38 Huram also made ten bronze basins, one for each cart. Each basin was six feet across and held 200 gallons [of water].
A rai dong pali touh ka kaw niteh, tui bath 40 touh ka cawng e rahum kawlung hra touh hai a sak teh, pâhungnae buet touh dawk kawlung buet touh rip pâhung lah ao.
39 Huram placed five of the carts on the south side of the temple and five on the north side. He put the big tank at the southeast corner.
Im aranglah panga touh, avoilah 5 touh, a ta teh, tuiim hateh, im aranglah kanîtho akalah ao.
40 Huram also made pots, shovels [for carrying ashes], and bowls [for carrying the blood of the animals that would be sacrificed]. He completed all the work that King Solomon requested him to do for the temple. [This is a list of the bronze things he made]:
Hiram ni hlaamnaw, hrabakawnnae, kawlungcanaw, hah a sak teh, Solomon siangpahrang hanelah BAWIPA e im dawk a cum e naw teh:
41 the two pillars; the two top parts to be put over the pillars; the two wreaths of chains to decorate the tops of the pillars;
khom kahni touh, khomsom lukhung ka hni touh,
42 the 400 [figures of] pomegranates, in two rows, with 100 in each row, that were placed over the top parts of the pillars;
khomsom lukhung ramuknae tamlawk kahni touh, ramuk nahane tamlawk buet touh dawk tale paw arui kahni touh, abuemlah 400 touh,
43 the ten carts; the ten basins;
pâhungnae hra touh, pâhungnae van hung e rahum kawlung hra touh, tuiim buet touh,
44 the big tank; the twelve [statues of] oxen on whose backs the tank was placed;
tuiim ka doun e maito hrahlaikahni touh, hlaamnaw, hrabakawnnae naw, hoi kawlungcanaw hah doeh.
45 the pots, shovels [for the ashes of the altar], and bowls. Huram [and his workers] made all these things for King Solomon and put them outside the temple. They were all made of polished bronze.
Solomon siangpahrang hanelah Ahiram ni a sak e BAWIPA e im puengcangnaw pueng teh, loukloukkaang e rahum hoi cum lah ao.
46 They made them by pouring melted bronze into the clay molds that Huram had set up near the Jordan [River] Valley, between [the cities of] Succoth and Zarethan.
Jordan tanghling Sukkoth hoi Zerethan rahak vah, amhru sak hane kahawi e talai dawk siangpahrang ni a hlun.
47 Solomon did not [tell his workers to] weigh those bronze objects, because there were many items. So no one ever knew what they weighed.
Hote hnopainaw apappoung dawkvah, Solomon ni khing laipalah a ta. Rahum e a khing teh apinihai panuek hoeh.
48 Solomon’s [workers] also made all the gold items for the temple: the altar; the table on which the priests put the sacred bread placed before God;
Hahoi Solomon ni BAWIPA e imthung kaawm e hnopainaw pueng a touk teh, sui khoungroe, vaiyei pâhung nahane caboi,
49 the ten lampstands [that were put] in front of the Very Holy Place, five on the south side and five on the north side; the [decorations that resembled] flowers; the lamps; the tongs [to grasp the hot coals];
Suikathoung hoi sak e hmaiimkhok, hmuen kathoung hmalah aranglah, 5, avoilah 5 touh kaawm e a pei, hmaiim, paitei sui hoi sak naw doeh.
50 the cups, the gold lamp wick snuffers, the small lamp bowls, the dishes for incense, the pans [for carrying the hot coals], and the hinges for the doors at the entrance to the Very Holy Place and for the doors at the entrance [to the main room] of the temple. Those things were all made of gold.
Manang, paitei, tongben, pacen, hraba kawnnae hlaamnaw hmuen kathounge a thung tho hoi bawkim alawilah e tho dawk bang e suitâbaw hai a sak.
51 So Solomon’s [workers] finished all the work for the temple. Then they placed in the temple storerooms all the things that his father David had dedicated to Yahweh—all the silver and gold, and the other valuable items.
Hottelah, Solomon siangpahrang ni BAWIPA e im hanlah a sak e naw pueng teh a cum. Hahoi, a na pa Devit ni a poe e hno, ngun, sui, hoi hnopai naw a kâenkhai teh BAWIPA e im râw kuemnae thingkong thung a ta.
