< 1 Kings 7 >
1 But Solomon was building his own house thirteen years, and he finished all his house.
Salomo sane sii ɔno ankasa nʼahemfie. Na mfirinhyia dumiɛnsa na ɔde wiee ahemfie no sie.
2 He built also the house of the forest of Lebanon; its length [was] a hundred cubits, and its breadth fifty cubits, and its hight thirty cubits, upon four rows of cedar pillars, with cedar beams upon the pillars.
Na wɔfrɛ Salomo adan no mu baako Lebanon Kwaeɛm Ahemfie. Na ne ntentenemu yɛ anammɔn ɔha ne aduonum. Ne tɛtrɛtɛ yɛ anammɔn aduɔson enum, ɛnna ne ɔsorokɔ yɛ anammɔn aduanan enum. Na ntweneduro nsamsoɔ no mpunan no deda ntweneduro fadum ɛnan a wɔatoto ahyehyɛ no tee so.
3 And [it was] covered with cedar above upon the beams, that [lay] on forty-five pillars, fifteen [in] a row.
Na wɔabɔ ntweneduro nsamsoɔ a ɛtwere mpunan aduanan enum a ɛno nso gugu fadum a wɔatoto, ahyehyɛ no ntentenesoɔ mmiɛnsa mu a, dunum na ɛwɔ ntentenesoɔ baako biara mu.
4 And [there were] windows in three rows, and light [was] against light [in] three ranks.
Afasuo no fa biara, mpomma sesa so mmiɛnsa mmiɛnsa a ɛdidi nhwɛanimu.
5 And all the doors and posts [were] square, with the windows: and light [was] against light [in] three ranks.
Apono no akwan nyinaa, wɔayɛ no ahinanan mmiɛnsa mmiɛnsa a ɛdidi nhwɛanimu.
6 And he made a porch of pillars; its length [was] fifty cubits, and its breadth thirty cubits: and the porch [was] before them: and the [other] pillars and the thick beams [were] before them.
Ɔsii afadum asa a ne ntentenemu yɛ anammɔn aduɔson enum, na ne tɛtrɛtɛ yɛ anammɔn aduanan enum. Na ntwonoo a wɔakuru so wɔ animu a ɛsi afadum so.
7 Then he made a porch for the throne where he might judge, [even] the porch of judgment: and [it was] covered with cedar from one side of the floor to the other.
Na ahennwa asa a na wɔnim no sɛ atemmuo asa nso wɔ hɔ. Ɛhɔ na na Salomo tena, di nsɛm. Na wɔde ntweneduro asam firi fam, de kɔsi nsamsoɔ so.
8 And his house where he dwelt [had] another court within the porch, [which] was of the like work. Solomon made also a house for Pharaoh's daughter, whom he had married, like to this porch.
Baabi a na Salomo teɛ no twa asɛnniiɛ a ɛwɔ asa no akyi no ho hyia. Ɛkwan korɔ no ara so na wɔfa de siiɛ. Ɔsii ne dan no sɛso de maa Farao babaa a na ɔyɛ ne yerenom no mu baako.
9 All these [were of] costly stones, according to the measures of hewn stones, sawed with saws, within and without, even from the foundation to the coping, and [so] on the outside towards the great court.
Aboɔ akɛseɛ a wɔatwa no pɛpɛɛpɛ a ne boɔ yɛ den yie na wɔde sii saa adan no.
10 And the foundation [was of] costly stones, even great stones; stones of ten cubits, and stones of eight cubits.
Aboɔ a wɔde too ɛdan no fapem no ntentenemu yɛ anammɔn dunum, ɛnna ebi nso ntentenemu yɛ anammɔn dumienu.
11 And above [were] costly stones, after the measures of hewn stones, and cedars.
Aboɔ a ne boɔ yɛ den yie a wɔde sii afasuo no nso, na wɔasusu, atwa no pɛpɛɛpɛ a ntweneduro mpunan nso ka ho.
12 And the great court around [was] with three rows of hewn stones, and a row of cedar beams, both for the inner court of the house of the LORD, and for the porch of the house.
Adihɔ kɛseɛ no afasuo no nso, wɔto de ntweneduro mpunan aduntire baako biara too aboɔ a wɔatwa aduntire mmiɛnsa biara so, te sɛ afasuo a ɛwɔ Awurade Asɔredan mfimfini mu hɔ a ntwonoo kwan ka ho.
13 And king Solomon sent and brought Hiram out of Tyre.
Ɔhene Salomo bisaa ɔbarima bi a ɔfiri Tiro a ne din de Huram ase sɛ ɔmfiri Tiro mmra,
14 He [was] a widow's son of the tribe of Naphtali, and his father [was] a man of Tyre, a worker in brass: and he was filled with wisdom, and understanding, and ingenious to work all works in brass. And he came to king Solomon, and wrought all his work.
ɛfiri sɛ, na ɔyɛ odwumfoɔ a ɔnim kɔbere mfrafraeɛ ho adwinneɛ yie. Na ɔyɛ Israelni fa, ɛfiri sɛ, ne maame yɛ okunafoɔ a ɔfiri Naftali abusuakuo mu. Nʼagya nso na ɔyɛ adwuma wɔ baabi a wɔnane nnadeɛ wɔ Tiro. Enti, ɔbɛyɛɛ adwuma maa ɔhene Salomo.
15 For he cast two pillars of brass, each of eighteen cubits high: and a line of twelve cubits did encompass each of them.
Huram twaa kɔbere mfrafraeɛ afadum mmienu a emu biara ɔsorokɔ yɛ anammɔn aduonu nson, ɛnna ne kankomu nso yɛ anammɔn dunwɔtwe.
16 And he made two capitals [of] molten brass, to set upon the tops of the pillars: the hight of the one capital [was] five cubits, and the hight of the other capital [was] five cubits:
Afadum no apampam no, ɔde kɔbere mfrafraeɛ yɛɛ aduntire a emu biara ɔsorokɔ yɛ anammɔn nson ne fa.
17 [And] nets of checker-work, and wreaths of chain-work, for the capitals which [were] upon the top of the pillars; seven for the one capital, and seven for the other capital.
Ntaasoɔ biara nso, wɔde atena a wɔanwono nson ne nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn na ahyehyɛ ho.
18 And he made the pillars, and two rows around upon the one net-work, to cover the capitals that [were] upon the top, with pomegranates: and so he did for the other capital.
Na ɔyɛɛ ateaa nsɛso a ɛsesa so tee mmienu bebaree atena a wɔanwono no de siesiee aduntire a ɛwɔ afadum no atifi.
19 And the capitals that [were] upon the top of the pillars [were] of lily-work in the porch, four cubits.
Ntaasoɔ a ɛwɔ afadum a ɛwɔ ntwonoo no mu no, na wɔayɛ no sɛ sukooko a ne ɔsorokɔ yɛ anammɔn nsia.
20 And the capitals upon the two pillars [had pomegranates] also above, over against the belly which [was] by the net-work: and the pomegranates [were] two hundred in rows around upon the other capital.
Ntaasoɔ biara a na ɛwɔ afadum mmienu no so no nso, na ateaa nsɛso ahanu a wɔahyehyɛ no tee tee mmienu atwa ho ahyia a, ɛbɛn kankonimu a ɛtoa atena a wɔanwono no so.
21 And he set up the pillars in the porch of the temple: and he set up the right pillar, and called its name Jachin: and he set up the left pillar, and called its name Boaz.
Huram de afadum no sisii Asɔredan no ɛkwan ano a baako kyerɛ anafoɔ fam na baako nso kyerɛ atifi fam. Ɔtoo baako a ɛkyerɛ anafoɔ fam no din Yakin (Ɔde atim hɔ) ɛnna deɛ ɛkyerɛ atifi fam no, ɔtoo no Boas (Ne mu na ahoɔden wɔ).
22 And upon the top of the pillars [was] lily-work: so was the work of the pillars finished.
Afadum no aduntire no, wɔyɛɛ no sɛ sukooko. Saa na ɔyɛ de wiee afadum no ho adwuma.
23 And he made a molten sea, ten cubits from the one brim to the other: [it was] entirely round, and its hight [was] five cubits: and a line of thirty cubits encompassed it.
Afei, Huram twaa dwaresɛn kurukuruwa kɛseɛ bi a ɛfiri ano kɔka ano no yɛ anammɔn dunum. Wɔtoo no edin Ɛpo. Na emu tenten yɛ anammɔn nson ne fa, na ne kankomu nso yɛ anammɔn aduanan enum.
24 And under the brim of it around [there were] knobs compassing it, ten in a cubit, compassing the sea around: the knobs [were] cast in two rows, when it was cast.
Ɛpo no ano pɛɛ na na wɔde nkoraa a wɔadi no adwini atwa ho ahyia. Na nkoraa bɛyɛ nsia a ɛkwan a ɛdeda wɔn ntam yɛ anammɔn baako. Na wɔayɛ ama ayɛ sɛ dwaresɛn no fa bi.
25 It stood upon twelve oxen, three looking towards the north, and three looking towards the west, and three looking towards the south, and three looking towards the east: and the sea [was set] above upon them, and all their hinder parts [were] inward.
Na Ɛpo no si nsiaseɛ a ɛyɛ kɔbere mfrafraeɛ anantwie dumienu sɛso so. Na wɔn nyinaa ani kyerɛkyerɛ abɔntene. Mmiɛnsa ani kyerɛ atifi fam. Mmiɛnsa ani kyerɛ atɔeɛ fam. Mmiɛnsa kyerɛ anafoɔ fam, ɛnna mmiɛnsa nso ani kyerɛ apueeɛ fam.
26 And it [was] a hand-breadth thick, and its brim was wrought like the brim of a cup, with flowers of lilies: it contained two thousand baths.
Na Ɛpo no afasuo mu pipiripie bɛyɛ nsateakwaa mmiɛnsa, na ano no ntrɛmu te sɛ bonsua, na na ɛte sɛ sukooko a apaeɛ. Na ɛbɛtumi akora nsuo bɛyɛ gyare mpem dubaako.
27 And he made ten bases of brass; four cubits [was] the length of one base, and four cubits the breadth of it, and three cubits the hight of it.
Huram sane yɛɛ nteaseɛnam edu a wɔde twe nsuo a emu biara tentenemu yɛ anammɔn nsia na ne tɛtrɛtɛmu nso yɛ anammɔn nsia, ɛnna ne ɔsorokɔ yɛ anammɔn ɛnan ne fa.
28 And the work of the bases [was] in this [manner]: They had borders, and the borders [were] between the ledges:
Na sɛdeɛ wɔyɛɛ nteaseɛnam no ne sɛ, ɛwowɔ mfomfamsoɔ ntrawantrawa a wɔabram so.
29 And on the borders that [were] between the ledges [were] lions, oxen, and cherubim: and upon the ledges [there was] a base above: and beneath the lions and oxen [were] certain additions made of thin work.
Wɔde agyata, anantwie ne Kerubim a wɔasene siesiee mfomfamsoɔ no ne nnadeɛ a wɔde bram ɛpono akyi no. Agyata no ne anantwie no so ne wɔn ase na wɔagu nhwiren a wɔahyehyɛ, de asiesie wɔn.
30 And every base had four brazen wheels, and plates of brass: and the four corners of it had undersetters: under the laver [were] undersetters molten, at the side of every addition.
Na saa nteaseɛnam no mu biara wɔ kɔbere mfrafraeɛ ntwahonan ɛnan ne kɔbere mfrafraeɛ ntwahodadeɛ. Na nteaseɛnam biara twɛtwɛwa no wɔ nnyinasoɔ afadum de ma kɔbere mfrafraeɛ dwaresɛn no; saa nnyinasoɔ no ho na wɔadi nhwiren a wɔahyehyɛ adwini.
31 And the mouth of it within the capital and above [was] a cubit: but the mouth of it [was] round [after] the work of the base, a cubit and a half: and also upon the mouth of it [were] gravings with their borders, foursquare, not round.
Nteaseɛnam no biara wɔ nnyinasoɔ kurukuruwa bi wɔ nʼatifi ma dwaresɛn no. Na ɛhwire mu, kɔ soro bɛyɛ anammɔn baako ne fa wɔ teaseɛnam no atifi te sɛ ntaamudeɛ kurukuruwa bi. Na ano a abue no yɛ anammɔn mmienu ne nsateakwaa mmiɛnsa. Ɛho no na wɔde nhwiren a wɔahyehyɛ adwinnie asiesie. Na nteaseɛnam no mfomfamsoɔ no yɛ ahinanan na ɛnyɛ kurukuruwa.
32 And under the borders [were] four wheels; and the axletrees of the wheels [were joined] to the base: and the hight of a wheel [was] a cubit and half a cubit.
Mfomfamsoɔ no ase na ntwahonan ɛnan a wɔde atoa ntwahodadeɛ so a wɔagu ne nyinaa atoa mu ayɛ baako no hyehyɛ. Na ɛfiri ntwahonan no kanko ano kɔsi ano yɛ anammɔn mmienu ne nsateakwaa mmiɛnsa,
33 And the work of the wheels [was] like the work of a chariot wheel: their axletrees, and their naves, and their fellies, and their spokes, [were] all molten.
a na ɛte sɛ teaseɛnam a ɛwɔ ntwahonan mmienu. Emu ntwahodadeɛ, mpadeɛ, hankra ne ne brɛmo no nyinaa, wɔde kɔbere mfrafraeɛ na ɛyɛeɛ.
34 And [there were] four undersetters to the four corners of one base: [and] the undersetters [were] of the very base itself.
Na teaseɛnam no ahanan nyinaa nsosɔmu wowɔ hɔ, na ne nyinaa nso, wɔagu atoa mu baako, ma ɛne teaseɛnam no atoa mu.
35 And in the top of the base [was there] a round compass of half a cubit high: and on the top of the base its ledges and its borders [were] of the same.
Nteaseɛnam no mu biara atifi no, na na hankra bi a ne tɛtrɛtɛ yɛ nsateakwaa nkron wɔ. Nsosɔmu no ne nkyɛnkyɛn mfomfamsoɔ no nso, wɔagu ma ɛne teaseɛnam no atoa mu.
36 For on the plates of its ledges, and on its borders, he graved cherubim, lions, and palm trees, according to the proportion of every one, and additions around.
Wɔde Kerubim, agyata ne mmɛdua a wɔasene siesiee mfomfamsoɔ no ne nnyinasoɔ ahodoɔ no ho baabiara a ɛkwan wɔ. Na wɔagu nhwiren a wɔahyehyɛ atwa ho nyinaa ahyia.
37 After this [manner] he made the ten bases: all of them had one casting, one measure, [and] one size.
Nsuo nteaseɛnam edu no, na ne nyinaa akɛseɛ yɛ pɛ, na ne nyinaa sesɛ, na wɔguu ne nyinaa wɔ ade korɔ mu.
38 Then he made ten lavers of brass: one laver contained forty baths: [and] every laver was four cubits: [and] upon every one of the ten bases one laver.
Huram sane yɛɛ kɔbere mfrafraeɛ dwaresɛn edu de maa nteaseɛnam no mu biara. Na dwaresɛn no mu tɛtrɛtɛ yɛ anammɔn nsia a ɛtumi kora nsuo gyare ahanu aduonu.
39 And he put five bases on the right side of the house, and five on the left side of the house: and he set the sea on the right side of the house eastward over against the south.
Ɔhyehyɛɛ nsuo nteaseɛnam no enum wɔ Asɔredan no anafoɔ fam ɛnna enum nso wɔ atifi fam. Wɔde Ɛpo no sii Asɔredan no anafoɔ apueeɛ fam twɛtwɛwa so.
40 And Hiram made the lavers, and the shovels, and the basins. So Hiram made an end of doing all the work that he executed for king Solomon for the house of the LORD:
Afei, ɔyɛɛ nkukuo, sofi ne dwaresɛn a ɛho hia. Ne korakora no, Huram wiee biribiara a ɔhene Salomo kyerɛɛ no sɛ ɔnyɛ wɔ Awurade Asɔredan no ho:
41 The two pillars, and the [two] bowls of the capitals that [were] on the top of the two pillars; and the two net-works, to cover the two bowls of the capitals which [were] upon the top of the pillars;
afadum mmienu, aduntire a wɔayɛ no sɛ asansuo mmienu a ɛsisi afadum no atifi, nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn mmienu a wɔde asiesie aduntire no,
42 And four hundred pomegranates for the two net-works, [even] two rows of pomegranates for one net-work, to cover the two bowls of the capitals that [were] upon the pillars;
ateaa nsɛso ahanan a ɛsensɛn nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn a ɛgu aduntire no so (ateaa a wɔahyehyɛ no ntentenesoɔ mmienu a ebiara sa nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn a ɛsensɛn aduntire a ɛwɔ afadum no atifi no so no),
43 And the ten bases, and ten lavers on the bases;
nsuo nteaseɛnam edu a dwaresɛn edu sisi soɔ,
44 And one sea, and twelve oxen under the sea;
Ɛpo no ne anantwie dumienu a ɛhyehyɛ aseɛ,
45 And the pots, and the shovels, and the basins: and all these vessels which Hiram made to king Solomon for the house of the LORD, [were of] bright brass.
Nkukuo, sofi ne dwaresɛn. Na nkuku ne nkaka a Huram yɛ maa ɔhene Salomo de guu Awurade Asɔredan mu no nyinaa yɛ kɔbere mfrafraeɛ a wɔapɔ ho.
46 In the plain of Jordan did the king cast them, in the clay ground between Succoth and Zarthan.
Ɔhene ma wɔguu no kankua a na ɛwɔ Yordan bɔnhwa a na ɛwɔ Sukot ne Saretan ntam no mu.
47 And Solomon left all the vessels [unweighed], because they were very numerous: neither was the weight of the brass ascertained.
Salomo ankari nkuku ne nkaka no, ɛfiri sɛ, na ɛdɔɔso dodo; na kɔbere mfrafraeɛ no mu duru nso, wɔantumi ankari.
48 And Solomon made all the vessels that [pertained] to the house of the LORD: the altar of gold, and the table of gold, upon which [was] the show-bread,
Na Salomo de saa nneɛma yi nyinaa siesiee Awurade Asɔredan no mu: sikakɔkɔɔ afɔrebukyia, sikakɔkɔɔ kyerɛ ɛpono a Hyiadan mu Burodo no gu soɔ,
49 And the candlesticks of pure gold, five on the right [side], and five on the left, before the oracle, with the flowers, and the lamps, and the tongs [of] gold,
sikakɔkɔɔ kaneadua a ɛnnum sisi anafoɔ fam, na enum sisi atifi fam wɔ kronkron mu kronkron animu hɔ; nhwiren a wɔde asiesie hɔ, nkanea ne nkapɛ a ne nyinaa yɛ sikakɔkɔɔ,
50 And the bowls, and the snuffers, and the basins, and the spoons, and the censers [of] pure gold; and the hinges [of] gold, [both] for the doors of the inner house, the most holy [place], [and] for the doors of the house, [to wit], of the temple.
nkuruwa, nkanea akapɛ, nsisoɔ, nyowaa ne nkyɛnsee a wɔnoa mu nyinaa yɛ sikakɔkɔɔ nko ara; ɛkwan ano apono a ɛkɔ kronkron mu kronkron ne Asɔredan no mu ne animu nyinaa, wɔde sikakɔkɔɔ duraa ho.
51 So was ended all the work that king Solomon made for the house of the LORD. And Solomon brought in the things which David his father had dedicated; [even] the silver, and the gold, and the vessels, he placed among the treasures of the house of the LORD.
Ɔhene Salomo wiee Awurade asɔredan no ho adwuma nyinaa. Na Salomo de akyɛdeɛ a nʼagya Dawid ato edin no nyinaa a ɛyɛ dwetɛ, sikakɔkɔɔ ne nkuku ne nkaka ba bɛkoraa wɔ adekoradan mu wɔ Awurade Asɔredan mu hɔ.
