2 Chronicles 3
1 Then Solomon’s workers started to build the temple for Yahweh in Jerusalem. They built it on Moriah Hill, where [an angel from] Yahweh had appeared to his father David. They built it on the ground that Araunah, a descendant of the Jebus people-group, had sold to David and where David said that it should be built.
Bangʼe Solomon nochako gero hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye Jerusalem e got Moria kama Jehova Nyasaye nofwenyore ne Daudi wuon mare. Ne en e kar dino cham mar Arauna ja-Jebus kama Daudi nochiwo.
2 They began the work in April, when Solomon had been ruling almost four years.
Nochako gedo odiechiengʼ mar ariyo e dwe mar ariyo e higa mar angʼwen mar lochne.
3 The foundation of the temple was about 90 feet long and 30 feet wide.
Mise mar gero hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye mane Solomon oketo ne en kama: borne ne romo fut piero aboro gaboro gi nus, lachne ne romo fut piero ariyo gochiko gi nus kaluwore gi rapim machon.
4 The entrance room across the front of the temple was 30 feet wide and 30 feet high.
Bor mar agola mane ni e nyim hekalu ne romo fut piero ariyo gochiko gi nus maromre gi lach mar hekalu kendo borne modhi malo ne romo fut piero ariyo gochiko gi nus. Nobawo iye gi dhahabu maler.
5 Solomon’s workers used [panels/boards of] pine [wood] to line the main hall of the temple. Then they covered those panels with [very thin sheets of] pure gold. Then they decorated the walls with [carved images of] palm trees and designs that resembled chains.
Nochwado i hekalu kod yiend saipras kendo ne omuone kod dhahabu maler moketogi gi othidhe kod thiwni.
6 They decorated the temple with very valuable stones. The gold that they used was from [the land of] Parvaim.
Nolicho hekalu gi kite ma nengogi tek, kendo notiyo kod dhahabu mogol Parvaim.
7 They covered the ceiling beams, the door frames, the walls and the doors of the temple with [very thin sheets of] gold. They also carved [statues of] winged creatures on the walls.
Nobawo hekalu gi dhahabu koda ka sirni, gi Sirni mag dhoudi gi yiend tado, kor udi gi dhoudi, kendo nogoro malaika mar kerubi e kor udi.
8 They also built the Very Holy Place [inside the temple]. It was 30 feet wide and 30 feet long. They covered its walls with sheets of pure gold that altogether weighed 23 tons.
Ne ogero Kama Ler Moloyo kendo borne ne romo gi lach hekalu, borne gi lachne ne en fut piero ariyo gochiko gi nus. Ne omuono iye gi dhahabu maler ma pekne romo kilo alufu piero ariyo.
9 They used 1-1/4 pounds of gold to [cover the heads of] the nails. They also covered the walls of the upper rooms with sheets of gold.
Pek dhahabu mar musmal mane otiyogo ne romo nus kilo. Nobawo udi mamalo bende gi dhahabu.
10 Solomon’s workers made two statues of creatures with wings to put inside the Very Holy Place. They covered those statues with [very thin sheets of] gold.
E Kama Ler Moloyo nopayo kerubi ariyo kendo obawogi kod dhahabu.
11 [Each statue had two long wings]. One wing of each statue touched one of the walls of the Temple. The other wing of each statue touched a wing of the other statue. It was 7-1/2 feet from the outer tip of one wing to the outer tip of the other wing. The inner wings of the two statues touched each other.
Bor mar bwomb kerubi ne en mita ochiko. Bwomb kerubi achiel ne romo fut aboro kendo nomulo kor hekalu to eka bwombe machielo ma borne bende ne fut aboro nomulo bwomb kerubi machielo.
Machalre bende, bwomb kerubi achiel machielo borne ne romo fut aboro kendo nomulo bath hekalu komachielo, to bwombe machielo ma bende borne ne romo fut aboro nomulo bwomb kerubi mokwongo.
13 It was 30 feet from the outer wing of the one statue to the outer wing of the other statue. The statues faced the doorway to the main room.
Bwomb kerubigo noyarore maromo fut piero ariyo gochiko gi nus. Kerubigo nochungʼ ka ngʼiyo dir ot maduongʼ.
14 Solomon’s workers made a curtain [to separate the main room from the Very Holy Place]. It was made of blue, purple, and red thread and fine linen. There were figures of winged creatures that were embroidered on the curtain.
Noloso pasia mar nanga marambulu, gi maralik, gi makwar kod law mayom motwangʼe kido mar kerubi.
15 They made two [bronze] pillars and put them at the entrance of the temple. They were each 27 feet high. Each had a top over it that was 7-1/2 feet high.
E nyim hekalu noloso sirni ariyo ma borgi ne romo fut piero abich gariyo gi nus koriw kendo noum wi moro ka moro gi gima borne romo fut aboro.
16 The workers made [carvings that resembled] chains and put them on top of the pillars. They made [carvings that resembled] pomegranates and attached them to the chains.
Noloso thiwni kendo oketogi ewi sirnigo. Bende noloso gik mongʼinore ongʼinore mia achiel mag mula kendo nolierogi e thiwnigo.
17 They set up the pillars in front of the temple, one on the south side [of the entrance] and the other on the north side. The one on the south side was named Jakin and the one on the north side was named Boaz.
Nochungo sirnigo e nyim hekalu koketo achiel yo milambo to machielo yo nyandwat. Mane oketo yo milambo noluongo ni Jakin to manoketo nyandwat noluongo ni Boaz.
