< 1 Kings 7 >
1 Solomon took thirteen years to build his own palace.
Solomọn ji afọ iri na atọ wuo ụlọ nke ya, bịa ruchakwaa ụlọ ya niile.
2 He built the Palace of the Forest of Lebanon. Its length was one hundred cubits, its width was fifty cubits, and its height was thirty cubits. The palace was built with four rows of cedar pillars with cedar beams on the pillars.
O wuru ụlọeze ukwu aha ya bụ Oke Ọhịa Lebanọn, nke ogologo ya dị iri mita ise, obosara ya dị iri mita abụọ na ise. Otu a kwa, ịdị elu ya dị mita iri na ise. Osisi sida ukwu e ji rụọ elu ya ka e mere ka ha nọkwasị nʼelu ogidi e doro nʼahịrị nʼahịrị. Ahịrị ogidi ndị a dịkwa anọ.
3 The house was roofed with cedar that rested on beams. Those beams were supported by pillars. There were forty-five beams, fifteen in a row.
Ọ bụkwa osisi sida ka e ji machie elu ụlọ ahụ. A kụkwasịrị osisi ndị a nʼelu osisi sida ukwu ndị a a wara awa, ndị e mere ka ha nọkwasị nʼogidi ndị ahụ. Ọnụọgụgụ osisi ndị ahụ bụ iri anọ na ise. Ọ bụkwa iri na ise ka e nwere nʼahịrị ọbụla.
4 There were beams in three rows, and each window was opposite another window in three sets.
Oghereikuku ya dịkwa nʼụzọ ahịrị atọ, otu nʼelu ibe ya. E mere ka oghereikuku ndị dị nʼelu nʼotu akụkụ chee oghereikuku ndị dị nʼakụkụ nke ọzọ ihu.
5 All the doors and posts were made square with beams, and window was opposite window in three sets.
Ọnụ ụzọ niile nwere mbudo ọnụ ụzọ anọ. Ha dị atọ atọ cherịtara ibe ha ihu nʼebe mpụta ya.
6 There was a colonnade fifty cubits long and thirty cubits wide, with a portico in front and pillars and a roof.
O wuru ọnụ ụzọ mbata nke ogidi, nke ruru iri mita na anọ nʼobosara, rukwaa iri mita anọ na ise nʼịdị ogologo. Nʼihu ya, e nwere mpụta ọnụ ụlọ, nʼihu ya, e nwekwara ogidi na elu ebe kpuchiri ekpuchi.
7 Solomon built the hall of the throne where he was to judge, the hall of justice. It was covered with cedar from floor to floor.
E nwekwara ọnụ ụlọ ọzọ a na-akpọ, Ụlọ Ocheeze, maọbụ Ụlọ Ikpe ziri ezi ebe Solomọn na-anọ ekpe ikpe. E ji osisi sida machie ahụ ya niile, site nʼala ruo nʼelu.
8 Solomon's house in which he was to live, in another courtyard within the palace grounds, was similarly designed. He also built a house like this for Pharaoh's daughter, whom he had taken as a wife.
Ụlọ obibi Solomọn dịkwa nʼogige dị nʼazụ ụlọ ikpe a. E wukwara ya dịka e si wuo ụlọ ndị ọzọ. Solomọn wukwaara nwunye ya ụlọ yiri nke ya. Nwanyị a bụ nwa Fero, eze ndị Ijipt, nke Solomọn na-alụ.
9 These buildings were adorned with costly hewn stones, precisely measured and cut with a saw and smoothed on all sides. These stones were used from the foundation to the stones on top, and also on the outside to the great court.
E ji nkume dị mma ma dịkwa oke ọnụahịa nke a wara awa na nke a kwadoro nke ọma nʼime na nʼezi dịka ọtụtụ si dị, wuo ụlọ ndị a. Site na ezi ruo nʼogige ukwu ahụ ma sitekwa na ntọala ruo nʼelu ya.
10 The foundation was constructed with very large, costly stones of eight and ten cubits in length.
Nkume e ji tọọ ntọala ụlọ ndị a bụ nkume buru ibu, ndị dị ezi mma. Ụfọdụ nʼime nkume ndị a ruru mita anọ na ọkara nʼogologo, ndị ọzọ dị mita atọ na ụma isii.
11 Above were costly hewn stones precisely cut to size, and cedar beams.
Nʼelu nkume ndị a ka e doro nkume ndị ọzọ, ndị dị ezi mma, a waziri awazi dịka ọtụtụ si dị. Emesịa, e dokwara osisi sida nʼelu ha.
12 The great courtyard surrounding the palace had three rows of cut stone and a row of cedar beams like the courtyard of the temple of Yahweh and the temple portico.
Ogige ukwu ahụ bụ nke eji ahịrị nkume atọ a wara awa dịkwasịrị nʼelu ibe ya gbaa gburugburu, otu ahịrị bụ nke sida a wara awa dịka ọ dị nʼime ime ogige ụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị ahụ, ya na mpụta ọnụ ụlọ ya.
13 King Solomon sent for Huram and brought him from Tyre.
Eze Solomọn zigara ozi na Taịa, ka a kpọta Huram.
14 Huram was the son of a widow of the tribe of Naphtali; his father was a man of Tyre, a craftsman in bronze. Huram was filled with wisdom and understanding and skill to do great work with bronze. He came to King Solomon to work with bronze for the king.
Nne Huram bụ nwanyị si nʼebo Naftalị nke di ya nwụrụ anwụ, ma nna ya bụ onye Taịa, onye maara ǹka dị nʼịkpụ bronz. Huram jupụtara nʼamamihe na nghọta nʼihe ọmụma ịrụ ọrụ ọbụla metụtara bronz. Ọ bịakwutere eze bụ Solomọn, rụọkwa ọrụ niile enyere ya ịrụ.
15 Huram fashioned the two pillars of bronze, each eighteen cubits high and twelve cubits in circumference.
Ọ kpụrụ ogidi bronz abụọ, nke ọtụtụ ya ruru mita asatọ na otu ụma nʼogologo, na mita ise na ụma anọ gburugburu ya.
16 He made two capitals of polished bronze to set on the tops of the pillars. The height of each capital was five cubits.
Ọ kpụkwara ihe ọkpụkpụ bronz, nke isi ya yiri ọnụ ite mmiri. A dọkwasịrị ha nʼelu ogidi ọla abụọ ahụ. Otu nʼime ihe ọkpụkpụ bronz abụọ ndị a dị ihe ruru mita abụọ na ụma atọ nʼogologo.
17 Checker latticework and wreaths of chain work for the capitals decorated the top of the pillars, seven for each capital.
E nwekwara ihe e ji chọọ ha mma. Ọ bụ ọla akpara akpa, nke yiri ụdọ a tụrụ atụ ka e ji chọọ ha mma. Asaa dị nʼotu ihe ọkpụkpụ ọla.
18 So Huram made two rows of pomegranates around the top of each pillar to decorate their capitals.
Ọ kpụrụ ihe yiri mkpụrụ pomegranet, nke dị nʼahịrị abụọ, nke o ji gbaa ihe ịchọ mma ndị ahụ gburugburu, maka iji ha chọọ ihe ọkpụkpụ ọla ndị ahụ dị nʼelu ogidi ndị ahụ mma. O mere otu ihe a maka ihe ọkpụkpụ ọla ọbụla.
19 The capitals on the tops of the portico pillars were decorated with lilies, four cubits high.
Ihe ọkpụkpụ ọla ndị dị nʼelu ogidi dị na mgbe ụlọ ka o mere ka ha yie okoko osisi lili. Ịdị elu ha ruru otu mita na ụma asatọ.
20 The capitals on these two pillars also included, close to their very top, two hundred pomegranates in rows all around.
Nʼelu ihe ọkpụkpụ ọla dị nʼogidi abụọ ahụ, nʼelu elu ha, ebe ahụ yiri ọnụ ite mmiri nke dị nʼakụkụ ihe ọkpụkpụ ọla ahụ, e nwere ihe yiri narị mkpụrụ pomegranet abụọ e doro nʼahịrị nʼahịrị gburugburu ha.
21 He raised up the pillars at the temple portico. The pillar on the right was named Jakin, and the pillar on the left was named Boaz.
O guzobere ogidi abụọ ndị ahụ na mgbe ọnụ ụzọ ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ. Ogidi nke dị na ndịda ka ọ kpọrọ Jakin, ma nke dị nʼugwu ka ọ kpọrọ Boaz.
22 On the top of the pillars were decorations like lilies. The fashioning of the pillars was done in this way.
Ihe ọkpụkpụ ọla dị nʼelu ogidi ndị a bụ nke yiri okoko osisi lili. Ọ bụ nʼụzọ dị otu a ka e si rụzuo ọrụ niile metụtara ogidi ndị ahụ.
23 Huram made the round sea of cast metal, ten cubits from brim to brim. Its height was five cubits, and the sea was thirty cubits in circumference.
O mekwara Oke osimiri nke ọla awụrụ awụ, nke dị gburugburu nʼụdịdị. Ọtụtụ ya bụ mita abụọ na ụma atọ nʼogologo, dịkwa mita ise na ụma atọ, site nʼotu ọnụ ruo nʼọnụ nke ọzọ. Ọ bụ eriri e ji atụ ihe ruru ihe dịka mita iri na anọ ka e ji tụọ ya gburugburu.
24 Under the brim encircling the sea were gourds, ten in each cubit, cast in one piece with “The Sea,” when that basin was cast.
Nʼokpuru ọnụ ya, oyiyi ọba gbara ya gburugburu, iri dị na mita anọ na ọkara ọbụla. Ọba ndị a dị nʼahịrị abụọ, awụkọtara ha na Oke osimiri ahụ otu mgbe.
25 “The Sea” stood on twelve oxen, three looking toward the north, three looking toward the west, three looking toward the south, and three looking toward the east. “The Sea” was set on top of them, and all their hindquarters were toward the inside.
E mekwara ka Oke osimiri ahụ guzo nʼelu ehi iri na abụọ. Atọ na-eche ihu nʼakụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ; atọ na-eche ihu nʼọdịda anyanwụ; atọ na-eche ihu nʼakụkụ ndịda, atọ na-eche ihu nʼakụkụ ugwu. Oke osimiri ahụ dịkwasịrị ha nʼelu, ebe azụ ha niile dị nʼime nʼetiti.
26 The sea was as thick as the width of a hand, and its brim was forged like the brim of a cup, like a lily blossom. The sea held two thousand baths of water.
Ịdị arọ ya ha ka otu ọtụtụ ntu-aka dimkpa. E mere ọnụ ya ka ọ dị ka ọnụ iko mmiri, dịkwa ka okoko lili na-awapụta awapụta. Ọ na-erite puku galọọnụ iri na abụọ.
27 Huram made the ten stands of bronze. Each stand was four cubits long and four cubits wide, and the height was three cubits.
O mekwara ihe ndọkwasị bronz iri, nke e nwere ike ịkpụgharị akpụgharị. Mita abụọ ka ogologo nke otu ihe ndọkwasị ọbụla dị, mita abụọ ka obosara ya dịkwa; ịdị elu ya dị otu mita na ọkara.
28 The work of the stands was like this. They had panels that stood between frames,
Ihe ndọkwasị ahụ nwere ihe e ji jikọta ya dị nʼetiti ya. Otu a ka e si mee ihe ndọkwasị ahụ.
29 and on the panels and on the frames were lions, oxen, and cherubim. Above and below the lions and oxen were wreaths of hammered work.
Nʼelu ihe njikọta ahụ ka a wụrụ oyiyi dị iche iche, dịka ọdụm, na oke ehi, na ndị mmụọ ozi cherubim nwere nku. Nʼelu, na nʼokpuru ọdụm, na oke ehi ndị ahụ, a wụkwara ahịhịa na okoko osisi dị iche iche.
30 Every stand had four bronze wheels and axles, and its four corners had supports beneath for the basin. The supports were cast with wreaths on the side of each one.
Otu ihe ndọkwasị ọbụla nwere ụkwụ bronz anọ dị gburugburu, nweekwa okporo bronz ebe ụkwụ ndị a na-agbagharị. Nʼakụkụ anọ nke ihe ndọkwasị ndị a, a rụnyere ebe a na-adọkwasị efere. E ji oyiyi okoko osisi na ahịhịa chọọ ihe ndị a mma.
31 The opening was round like a pedestal, a cubit and a half wide, and was within a crown that rose up a cubit. On the opening were engravings, and their panels were square, not round.
Nʼime ihe ndọkwasị ahụ, e nwere oghere nke nwere ọnụ dị gburugburu nke ịdị omimi ya bụ sentimita iri anọ na ise. Oghere a dị gburugburu, nwee ebe ndọkwasị nʼokpuru ya nke dị sentimita iri isii na asatọ nʼọtụtụ. Oyiyi ihe apịrị apị dịkwa gburugburu ọnụ ya. Ihe njikọta ha niile nwere akụkụ anọ nke ha nʼotu, ha adịghị gburugburu.
32 The four wheels were underneath the panels, and the axles of the wheels and their housings were in the stand. The height of a wheel was a cubit and a half.
A na-adọkpụgharị ihe ndọkwasị a nʼụkwụ anọ o nwere. A dụnyekọtakwara ụkwụ anọ ndị a nʼime okporo ọla e mekọtara ya na ihe ndọkwasị ahụ. Ịdị elu nke ụkwụ ọbụla bụ iri sentimita isii na asatọ.
33 The wheels were forged like chariot wheels. Their housings, rims, spokes, and hubs were all cast metal.
E mekwara ụkwụ ndị a dịka ụkwụ ụgbọala nke ịnyịnya na-adọkpụ. Ọ bụkwa ọla ka e ji kpụọ akụkụ ihe ndọkwasị ahụ niile, ma okporo igwe ukwu, ma okporo igwe nta, na ihe niile jikọtara ha.
34 There were four handles at the four corners of each stand, forged into the stand itself.
Ụkwụ ọla nta anọ dịkwa nʼokpuru ihe ndọkwasị ahụ, nʼakụkụ ọbụla. A wụkọtakwara ha na ihe ndọkwasị ahụ.
35 In the top of the stands there was a round band half a cubit deep, and on the top of the stand its supports and panels were attached.
E nwere ihe a magidere gburugburu nʼelu ihe ndọkwasị ọbụla, nke omimi ya dị iri sentimita abụọ na ụma atọ. Ọla a, na ụkwụ ya, ka a wụkọtara na ihe ndọkwasị ahụ otu mgbe.
36 On the surfaces of the supports and on the panels Huram engraved cherubim, lions, and palm trees that covered the space available, and they were surrounded by wreaths.
Ebe ọbụla ohere dị, o gbunyere oyiyi cherubim nwere nku, na oyiyi ọdụm, na oyiyi osisi nkwụ, nʼahụ ibo ọla ahụ e mere ka ọ dịrị gburugburu elu ihe ndọkwasị ọla ahụ.
37 He made the ten stands in this manner. All of them were cast in the same molds, and they had one size, and the same shape.
Ihe ndọkwasị ọla iri ndị ahụ ha otu. Ha yikwara ibe ha, nʼihi na e mere ka ha nwee otu ụdị.
38 Huram made ten basins of bronze. One basin could hold forty baths of water. Each basin was four cubits across and there was one basin on each of ten stands.
Huram jikwa bronz kpụọ efere ịsa ihe iri. Ogbu efere ọbụla dị mita abụọ na otu ụma, otu efere maka ihe ndọkwasị ọbụla. Mmiri na-eju otu nʼime ha bụ narị galọọnụ mmiri abụọ na iri anọ.
39 He made five stands on the south-facing side of the temple and five on the north-facing side of the temple. He set “The Sea” on the east corner, facing toward the south of the temple.
Ọ dọnyere ihe ndọkwasị ọla ise nʼakụkụ ndịda ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ, dọnyekwa ihe ndọkwasị ọla ise nke ọzọ nʼakụkụ ugwu. Ọ dọbara ihe ichenye mmiri ukwu ahụ nʼakụkụ ndịda, nʼihu ọwụwa anyanwụ nke ụlọnsọ ahụ, nʼebe chere ihu na ndịda.
40 Huram made the basins and the shovels and the sprinkling bowls. Then he finished all the work that he did for King Solomon in the temple of Yahweh:
Ọ kpụkwara ite dị iche iche, shọvel niile, na efere ịkwọsa mmiri niile. Nʼikpeazụ, ọ rụchara ọrụ niile dị nʼụlọnsọ Onyenwe anyị, nke eze Solomọn tinyere ya nʼaka ịrụ.
41 the two pillars, and the bowl-like capitals that were on top of the two pillars, and the two sets of decorative latticework to cover the two bowl like capitals that were on top of the pillars.
Ogidi abụọ ahụ; ihe ọkpụkpụ abụọ dịka efere dị nʼelu ogidi abụọ ahụ; ihe ọkpụkpụ yiri ụdọ a tụrụ atụ nke e ji chọọ ihe ọkpụkpụ abụọ ahụ dịka efere mma.
42 He made the four hundred pomegranates for the two sets of decorative latticework (two rows of pomegranates for each set of latticework to cover the two bowl-like capitals that were on the pillars);
Narị anọ nke mkpụrụ pomegranet a kpụrụ akpụ maka ahịrị ihe abụọ ahụ a kpụrụ akpụ, ya bụ, ahịrị pomegranet abụọ nʼihi otu ihe ọkpụkpụ, iji chọọ ihe ọkpụkpụ ahụ yiri efere dị nʼisi elu ogidi ahụ mma.
43 the ten stands, and the ten basins on the stands.
Ihe ndọkwasị iri na efere ịsa mmiri iri nke dọkwasịrị nʼelu ha;
44 He made the large basin called “The Sea” with its twelve oxen under it;
na Oke osimiri ahụ na oke ehi iri na abụọ ahụ dị ya nʼokpuru;
45 also the pots, shovels, basins, and all the other implements. Huram made them out of polished bronze, for King Solomon, for the temple of Yahweh.
ite niile, shọvel niile na efere ịkwọsa mmiri. Ihe ndị a niile nke Huram meere eze Solomọn nʼihi ụlọnsọ Onyenwe anyị, bụ bronz na-egbu maramara ka eji mee ha.
46 The king had cast them in the plain of the Jordan, in the clay ground between Succoth and Zarethan.
Ọ bụ nʼala ụrọ, nʼobosara ala Jọdan, nʼetiti Sukọt na Zaretan ka eze mere ka a nọrọ kpụọ ihe ndị a.
47 Solomon did not weigh all the utensils because there were too many to weigh, because the weight of the bronze could not be measured.
Ma Solomọn atụghị ihe ndị a niile a kpụrụ nʼihe ọtụtụ, nʼihi na ha dị ọtụtụ nʼọnụọgụgụ, achọpụtaghịkwa ịdị arọ nke bronz ahụ.
48 Solomon had made all the furnishings that were in the temple of Yahweh out of gold: the golden altar and the table on which the bread of the presence was to be placed;
Solomọn mekwara ngwongwo niile dị nʼime ụlọnsọ Onyenwe anyị, ya bụ: ebe ịchụ aja e ji ọlaedo kpụọ, tebul ọlaedo nke a dọkwasịrị achịcha nke iche nʼIhu Onyenwe anyị.
49 the lampstands, five on the right side and five on the left, in front of the inner room, were of pure gold, and the flowers, the lamps, and the tongs were of gold.
E jikwa ọlaedo a nụchara anụcha kpụọ ihe ịdọkwasị oriọna, ise nʼakụkụ aka nri, ise nʼakụkụ aka ekpe, nʼihu ime ime ebe nsọ; tinyere ihe ịchọ mma oyiyi okoko osisi, na oriọna niile, na ihe ịgụta ihe niile;
50 Solomon also had made the cups, lamp trimmers, basins, spoons, and incense burners, all of which were made of pure gold; he had sockets of gold made for the doors of the inner room (which was the most holy place), and for the doors of the main hall of the temple.
na efere ọlaedo a nụchara anụcha dị iche iche, na ihe ịkpakepụ ọkụ niile, na efere ịkwọsa mmiri, na ngaji na ihe ịgụ ọkụ; na ihe ikonye ibo nʼihi ibo ọnụụlọ ndị dị nʼime ime, bụ Ebe Kachasị Nsọ, nakwa ibo ndị dị nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọ ezumezu nke ụlọnsọ ukwu.
51 In this way, all the work that King Solomon directed for the house of Yahweh was finished. So Solomon brought in the things that were set apart by David, his father, and the silver, the gold, and the furnishings, and put them into the storerooms of the house of Yahweh.
Mgbe a rụzuru ọrụ niile nke eze Solomọn nwere ịrụ maka ụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị ahụ, o webatara ihe niile Devid bụ nna ya doro nsọ nʼime ya, ya bụ ọlaọcha, ọlaedo na ngwongwo ndị ọzọ niile. O tinyere ha nʼụlọakụ dị nʼụlọnsọ Onyenwe anyị.
