2 Chronicles 4
1 Moreover he made an altar of bronze; its length was twenty cubits, and its width was twenty cubits. Its height was ten cubits.
Fremdeles lavede han et Kobberalter, tyve Alen bredt og ti Alen højt.
2 He also 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.
Fremdeles lavede han Havet i støbt Arbejde, ti Alen fra Rand til Rand, helt rundt, fem Alen højt; det målte tredive Alen i Omkreds.
3 Under the brim encircling the sea were bulls, ten to each cubit, cast in one piece with the sea when the sea itself was cast.
Under Randen var det hele Vejen rundt omgivet af agurklignende Prydelser, der omsluttede Havet helt rundt, tredive Alen; i to Rækker sad de agurklignende Prydelser, støbt i eet dermed.
4 The large basin known as “The Sea” was set upon 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.
Det stod på tolv Okser, således at tre vendte mod Nord, tre mod Vest, tre mod Syd og tre mod Øst; Havet stod oven på dem; de vendte alle Bagkroppen indad.
5 “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 three thousand baths of water.
Det var en Håndsbred tykt, og Randen var formet som Randen på et Bæger, som en udsprungen Lilje. Det tog 3000 Bat.
6 He made also ten basins for washing things; he put five on the south side, and five on the north; items used in performing the burnt offering were to be washed in them. The large basin known as “The Sea” was used by the priests for them to wash.
Fremdeles lavede han ti Bækkener og satte fem til højre og fem til venstre, til Tvætning; i dem skyllede man, hvad der brugtes ved Brændofrene, medens Præsterne brugte Havet til at tvætle sig i.
7 He made the ten lampstands of gold that were made from the instructions for their design; he placed them in the temple, five on the right hand, and five on the left.
Fremdeles lavede han de ti Guldlysestager, som de skulde væte, og satte dem i Helligdommen, fem til højre og fem til venstre.
8 He made ten tables and placed them in the temple, five on the right side, and five on the left. He made one hundred basins of gold.
Fremdeles lavede han ti Borde og satte dem i Helligdommen, fem til højre og fem til venstre; fillige lavede han 100 Skåle af Guld.
9 Furthermore he made the courtyard of the priests, and the great court and the doors for the court and overlaid their doors with bronze.
Fremdeles indrettede han Præsternes Forgård og den store Gård og Porte til Gården; Portfløjene overtrak han med Kobber.
10 He placed the basin known as “The Sea” on the east side of the temple, facing toward the south.
Havet opstillede han ved Templets Sydside, ved det sydøstre Hjørne.
11 Huram made the pots, the shovels, and the sprinkling bowls. So Huram finished the work that he did for King Solomon in the house of God:
Fremdeles lavede Huram Karrene, Skovlene og Skålene. Dermed var Huram færdig med sit Arbejde for Kong Salomo ved Guds Hus:
12 the two pillars, 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.
De to Søjler og de to kugleformede Søjlehoveder ovenpå, de to Fletværker til at dække de to, kugleformede Søjlehoveder på Søjlerne,
13 He had 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.
de 400 Granatæbler til de to Fletværker, to Rækker Granatæbler til hvert Fletværk til at dække de to kugleformede Søjlehoveder på de to Søjler,
14 He also made the stands and the basins to go on the stands;
de ti Stel med de ti Bækkener på,
15 one sea and the twelve bulls under it,
Havet med de tolv Okser under.
16 also the pots, shovels, meat forks, and all the other implements that Huram-Abi made of polished bronze for King Solomon, for the house of Yahweh.
Karrene, Skovlene og Skålene og alle de Ting, som hørte til, lavede Huram-Abi af blankt Kobber for Kong Salomo til HERRENs Hus.
17 The king had cast them in the plain of the Jordan, in the clay ground between Succoth and Zarethan.
I Jordandalen lod Kongen dem støbe, ved Adamas Vadested mellem Sukkot og Zereda.
18 Thus Solomon made all these vessels in great abundance; indeed, the weight of the bronze could not be known.
Salomo lod alle disse Ting lave i stor Mængde, thi Kobberet blev ikke vejet.
19 Solomon made all the furnishings that were in the house of God, the golden altar also, and the tables on which the bread of the presence was to be placed;
Og Salomo lod alle Tingene, som hørte til Guds Hus, lave: Guldalteret, Bordene, som Skuebrødene lå på,
20 the lampstands with their lamps, that were designed to burn before the inner room—these were made of pure gold;
Lysestagerne med Lamperne, der skulde tændes på den foreskrevne Måde, foran Inderhallen, af purt Guld,
21 and the flowers, the lamps, and the tongs, of gold, pure gold.
med Blomsterbægrene, Lamperne og Lysesaksene af Guld, ja af det allerbedste Guld,
22 Also the lamp trimmers, basins, spoons, and incense burners were all made of pure gold. As for the entrance into the house, its inner doors into the most holy place and the doors of the house, that is, of the temple, were made of gold.
Knivene, Skålene, Kanderne og Panderne af fint Guld og Dørhængslerne til Templet, til Inderdørene for det Allerltelligste og til Dørene for det Hellige, af Guld.
