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.
Mfalme Solomoni akatengeneza madhabahu ya shaba yenye urefu wa dhiraa ishirini, upana wa dhiraa ishirini na kimo chake dhiraa kumi.
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.
Akatengeneza Bahari ya kusubu, yenye umbo la mviringo, ya dhiraa kumi kutoka ukingo hadi ukingo na kimo cha dhiraa tano. Kamba ya urefu wa dhiraa thelathini ingeweza kuizunguka.
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.
Chini ya huo ukingo, kulikuwa na mafahali kuizunguka, yaani mafahali kumi katika kila dhiraa moja. Hayo mafahali waliyasubu katika safu mbili yakiwa ya kitu kimoja na hiyo Bahari.
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.
Bahari hiyo ilikaa juu ya mafahali kumi na wawili, mafahali watatu walielekeza nyuso zao kaskazini, watatu magharibi, watatu kusini na watatu mashariki. Bahari hiyo ilikaa juu ya hao mafahali, nazo sehemu zao za nyuma zilielekeana.
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.
Unene wake ulikuwa nyanda nne, na ukingo wake ulifanana na ukingo wa kikombe, kama ua la yungiyungi iliyochanua. Iliweza kuchukua bathi 3,000.
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.
Kisha akatengeneza masinia kumi kwa ajili ya kuoshea vifaa, naye akayaweka matano upande wa kusini na matano upande wa kaskazini. Ndani yake ndimo walioshea vifaa vya kutumika katika sadaka za kuteketezwa, lakini ile Bahari ilikuwa ni kwa ajili ya makuhani kunawia.
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.
Akatengeneza vinara vya taa kumi vya dhahabu kama ilivyoainishwa kwao na kuviweka hekaluni, vinara vitano upande wa kusini na vitano upande wa kaskazini.
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.
Akatengeneza meza kumi na kuziweka hekaluni, tano upande wa kusini na tano upande wa kaskazini. Pia akatengeneza mabakuli 100 ya dhahabu ya kunyunyizia.
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.
Akatengeneza ukumbi wa makuhani na ukumbi mwingine mkubwa na milango yake, naye akaifunika hiyo milango kwa shaba.
10 He placed the basin known as “The Sea” on the east side of the temple, facing toward the south.
Akaweka ile Bahari upande wa kusini, kwenye pembe ya kusini mashariki ya nyumba.
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:
Pia akatengeneza masufuria, masepetu na mabakuli ya kunyunyizia. Kwa hiyo Huramu akakamilisha kazi katika Hekalu la Mungu kama vile Mfalme Solomoni alikuwa amemwagiza, yaani:
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.
zile nguzo mbili; yale mataji mawili yaliyokuwa juu ya hizo nguzo, zile nyavu mbili za kupamba hayo mataji mawili yenye umbo la bakuli yaliyowekwa juu ya zile nguzo;
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.
yale makomamanga 400 kwa ajili ya hizo nyavu mbili (safu mbili za makomamanga kwa kila wavu yakipamba hayo mataji mawili yenye umbo la bakuli juu ya hizo nguzo);
14 He also made the stands and the basins to go on the stands;
vishikio pamoja na masinia yake;
15 one sea and the twelve bulls under it,
hiyo Bahari na hao mafahali kumi na wawili chini yake;
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.
pia hayo masufuria, masepetu, uma za nyama na vyombo vingine vyote vilivyohusiana. Vitu vyote ambavyo Huramu-Abi alimtengenezea Mfalme Solomoni kwa ajili ya Hekalu la Bwana vilikuwa vya shaba iliyosuguliwa.
17 The king had cast them in the plain of the Jordan, in the clay ground between Succoth and Zarethan.
Mfalme aliagiza wavisubu vitu hivi kwenye kalibu za udongo wa mfinyanzi katika uwanda wa Yordani kati ya Sukothi na Sereda.
18 Thus Solomon made all these vessels in great abundance; indeed, the weight of the bronze could not be known.
Vitu hivi vyote Mfalme Solomoni alivyotengeneza vilikuwa vingi sana hivi kwamba uzito wa shaba haungekadirika.
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;
Solomoni pia akatengeneza samani zote zilizokuwa ndani ya Hekalu la Mungu: madhabahu ya dhahabu; meza za kuweka mikate ya Wonyesho;
20 the lampstands with their lamps, that were designed to burn before the inner room—these were made of pure gold;
vinara vya taa vya dhahabu safi pamoja na taa zake ili ziwake mbele ya sehemu takatifu ya ndani kama ilivyoelekezwa;
21 and the flowers, the lamps, and the tongs, of gold, pure gold.
maua ya dhahabu yaliyofanyizwa, taa na makoleo (vilikuwa vya dhahabu bora kabisa);
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.
mikasi ya dhahabu safi, mabakuli ya kunyunyizia, masinia na vyetezo; milango ya dhahabu ya Hekalu: yaani milango ya ndani ya Patakatifu pa Patakatifu, na milango ya ukumbi mkuu.
