2 Chronicles 4
1 Solomon’s workers made a square bronze altar that was 10 yards wide on each side, and it was 5 yards high.
Depois fez um altar de bronze, vinte côvados de comprimento, vinte côvados de largura e dez côvados de altura.
2 They also made a very large round tank that was made of metal and cast [in a clay mold]. It was 10 yards wide/across, and 5 yards high. It was 15 yards around it.
Também fez o mar derretido de dez côvados de borda a borda. Era redondo, cinco côvados de altura e trinta côvados de circunferência.
3 Below the outer rim there were two rows of [small figures of] bulls that were part of the metal of the basin. Each row had 300 figures of bulls.
Debaixo dele estava a semelhança dos bois, que o circundavam, por dez côvados, circundando o mar. Os bois estavam em duas fileiras, fundidos quando foi fundido.
4 The basin was set on twelve [statues of] bulls. There were three statues that faced north, three that faced west, three that faced south, and three that faced east.
Estava sobre doze bois, três olhando para o norte, três olhando para o oeste, três olhando para o sul e três olhando para o leste; e o mar estava colocado sobre eles acima, e todos os seus quartos traseiros estavam para dentro.
5 The sides of the tank were 3 inches thick, and its rim was shaped like a cup that curved outward like the petals of flowers. The basin held about 16,500 gallons [of water].
Era uma largura de mão grossa. Sua borda era feita como a borda de um copo, como a flor de um lírio. Recebia e segurava três mil banhos.
6 They also made ten basins for washing the [animals that were] to be sacrificed. The priests used the very large tank for washing themselves.
Ele também fez dez bacias, e colocou cinco na mão direita e cinco na esquerda, para lavar nelas. As coisas que pertenciam ao holocausto eram lavadas nelas, mas o mar era para os sacerdotes se lavarem.
7 They also made ten gold lampstands according to what Solomon had instructed them. They put them in the temple, five on the south side and five on the north side.
Ele fez os dez candeeiros de ouro de acordo com a portaria relativa a eles; e colocou-os no templo, cinco à direita e cinco à esquerda.
8 They made ten tables and put them in the temple, five on the south side and five on the north side. They also made 100 gold bowls.
Ele também fez dez mesas, e as colocou no templo, cinco do lado direito e cinco do lado esquerdo. Ele fez cem bacias de ouro.
9 They also constructed one courtyard for the priests, and a larger courtyard [for the other people]. They made doors for the courtyards and covered them with [thin sheets of] bronze.
Furthermore ele fez a corte dos sacerdotes, a grande corte e portas para a corte, e revestiu suas portas com bronze.
10 They placed the very large tank [on the south side of the temple, ] at the southeast corner.
Ele colocou o mar no lado direito da casa para o leste, em direção ao sul.
11 They also made pots and shovels [for the ashes of the altar], and other small bowls. So Huram [and his workers] finished the work that King Solomon had given him to do at the temple of God.
Huram fez as panelas, as pás e as bacias. Assim Huram terminou o trabalho que fez para o rei Salomão na casa de Deus:
12 [These were the things that they made: ] the two large pillars, the two bowl-shaped top parts on top of the pillars, the two sets of carvings that resembled chains to decorate the tops of the two pillars,
os dois pilares, as tigelas, as duas capitais que estavam no topo dos pilares, as duas redes para cobrir as duas tigelas das capitais que estavam no topo dos pilares,
13 the 400 carvings that resembled pomegranates that were placed in two rows, that decorated the bowl-shaped tops of the two pillars,
e as quatrocentas romãs para as duas redes - duas fileiras de romãs para cada rede, para cobrir as duas tigelas das capitais que estavam sobre os pilares.
14 the stands, and the basins that were placed on them,
Ele também fez as bases, e fez as bacias sobre as bases -
15 the very large tank, and the [statues of] twelve bulls underneath it,
um mar, e os doze bois debaixo dele.
16 the pots, shovels, meat forks, and all the other things [needed for the work at the altar]. All those things that Huram [and his workers] made for King Solomon were made of polished bronze.
Huram-abi também fez as panelas, as pás, os garfos e todas suas embarcações para o rei Salomão, para a casa de Yahweh, de bronze brilhante.
17 They made them by pouring melted bronze into the clay molds that Huram had set up near the Jordan [river] between Succoth and Zarethan [cities].
O rei os fundiu na planície do Jordão, na terra argilosa entre Succoth e Zeredah.
18 All of those things that Solomon [told them to] make used a very large amount of bronze; no one tried to weigh it all.
Assim, Salomão fez todas estas embarcações em grande abundância, de modo que o peso do bronze não pôde ser determinado.
19 Solomon’s workers also made all these things that were put at the temple: the golden altar, the tables on which the priests put the sacred bread,
Salomão fez todos os vasos que estavam na casa de Deus: o altar dourado, as mesas com o pão de exposição,
20 the pure gold lampstands and the pure gold lamps, [in which the priests put oil] to burn in front of the Most Holy Place as God had told [Moses that the priests should do],
e as luminárias com suas lâmpadas para queimar de acordo com a ordenança perante o santuário interior, de ouro puro;
21 the pure gold decorations that resembled flowers, and the lamps and tongs,
e as flores, as lâmpadas e as pinças de ouro mais puro;
22 the pure gold wick trimmers and bowls for sprinkling, and dishes and lamp snuffers, the gold doors of the temple and the doors to the main hall.
e os rapé, as bacias, as colheres e as panelas de fogo de ouro puro. Quanto à entrada da casa, suas portas internas para o lugar mais sagrado e as portas do salão principal do templo eram de ouro.
