2 Chronicles 3
1 Then Solomon began to build the house of Yahweh at Jerusalem on Mount Moriah, where Yahweh had appeared to David his father. He prepared the place that David had planned for it, at the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
Katahi ka timata a Horomona te hanga i te whare o Ihowa ki Hiruharama, ki Maunga Moria, ki te wahi i puta ai a Ihowa ki tona papa, ki a Rawiri, ki te wahi i whakapaia e Rawiri ki te patunga witi a Oronana Iepuhi.
2 He began to build on the second day of the second month, in the fourth year of his reign.
No te rua o nga ra o te rua o nga marama i timata ai ia te hanga, no te wha o nga tau o tona kingitanga.
3 Now these are the dimensions of the foundation that Solomon laid for the house of God. Using the old style cubit, the length was sixty cubits, and the width was twenty cubits.
Na ko nga turanga enei i whakatakotoria e Horomona mo te hanganga i te whare o te Atua. Ko te roa, i nga whatianga i muri o te ruri tuatahi, e ono tekau whatianga, a koe te whanui e rua tekau whatianga.
4 The length of the portico at the front of the house was twenty cubits, matching the building's width. Its height was also twenty cubits, and Solomon overlaid its interior with pure gold.
A, ko te whakamahau i te aronga ki mua o te whare, ko tona roa i te ahua o te whanui o te whare e rua tekau whatianga, a ko te tiketike kotahi rau e rua tekau: a he mea whakakikorua e ia a roto ki te koura parakore.
5 He fashioned the ceiling of the main hall with cypress, which he overlaid with fine gold, and which he carved with palm trees and chains.
Na, ko te whare nui, he mea hipoki nana ki te rakau, ki te kauri, whakakikoruatia ana e ia ki te koura pai, mahia iho hoki e ia ki runga he nikau, he mekameka.
6 He decorated the house with precious stones; the gold was gold from Parvaim.
He mea whakapaipai hoki nana te whare ki te kohatu utu nui, kia ataahua ai. He koura hoki; no Parawaima te koura.
7 He also overlaid its beams, thresholds, walls, and doors with gold; he carved cherubs on its walls.
I whakakikoruatia ano e ia te whare, nga kurupae, nga pou, ona taha, me ona tatau, ki te koura; i whakairoa ano he kerupima ki nga taha.
8 He built the most holy place. Its length matched the house's width, twenty cubits, and its width was also twenty cubits. He overlaid it with fine gold, amounting to six hundred talents.
I hanga ano e ia te whare tapu rawa; ko te roa, ko te whanui o te whare, e rua tekau whatianga; ko tona whanui e rua tekau whatianga. Whakakikoruatia iho ki te koura pai, e ono rau taranata.
9 The weight of the nails was fifty shekels of gold. He overlaid its high surfaces with gold.
Na, ko te taimaha o nga whao, e rima tekau hekere koura. A i whakakikoruatia nga uma o runga ki te koura.
10 He made two images of cherubs for the most holy place; craftsmen overlaid them with gold.
I hanga ano e ia i roto i te whare tino tapu e rua nga kerupima, he mea whakairo; whakakikoruatia iho ki te koura.
11 The wings of the cherubs were twenty cubits long all together; the wing of one cherub was five cubits long, reaching to the wall of the room; the other wing was likewise five cubits, reaching to the wing of the other cherub.
Ko nga parirau hoki o nga kerupima, e rua tekau whatianga te roa: ko te parirau o tetahi, e rima whatianga, pa tonu ki te taha o te whare; ko tetahi parirau, e rima whatianga, pa tonu ki te parirau o tera kerupa.
12 The wing of the other cherub was also five cubits, reaching to the wall of the room; its other wing was also five cubits, touching the wing of the first cherub.
Na ko te parirau o tera kerupa, e rima whatianga, pa tonu ki te taha o te whare: ko tetahi parirau, e rima ano hoki whatianga, he mea ungutu ano ki te parirau o tera kerupa.
13 The wings of these cherubs spread a total of twenty cubits. The cherubs stood on their feet, with their faces toward the main hall.
Na roha tonu nga parirau o enei kerupima, e rua tekau whatianga. Tu ana o raua waewae ki runga; ko o raua kanohi i anga ki te whare.
14 He made the curtain of blue, purple, and crimson wool and fine linen, and he fashioned cherubs on it.
I hanga ano e ia te arai ki te mea puru, papura, whero, ki te rinena pai; mahia iho hoki e ia ki te kerupa.
15 Solomon also made two pillars, each thirty-five cubits high, for in front of the house; the capitals that were on the top of them were five cubits high.
I hanga ano e ia etahi pou e rua ki mua i te whare, e toru tekau ma rima whatianga te roa, e rima whatianga o te whakapaipai i runga i tetahi, i tetahi.
16 He made chains for the pillars and put them on top of them; he also made one hundred pomegranates and joined them to the chains.
I hanga ano e ia he mekameka ki te ahurewa, whakanohoia iho ki nga pito ki runga o nga pou. I hanga ano e ia etahi pamekaranete kotahi rau, whakanohoia iho ki nga mekameka.
17 He set up the pillars in front of the temple, one on the right hand, and the other on the left; he named the pillar on the right Jakin, and the pillar on the left Boaz.
Whakaturia ana e ia aua pou ki mua o te temepara, kotahi ki matau, kotahi ki maui, a huaina iho e ia te ingoa o tera ki matau ko Iakini, te ingoa hoki o tera ki maui ko Poaha.
