1 Kings 6
1 In the four hundred and eightieth year after the children of Israel had come out of the land of Egypt, in the fourth year of Solomon’s reign over Israel, in the month Ziv, which is the second month, he began to build Yahweh’s house.
Hahoi hettelah ao. Isarel catounnaw Izip ram dawk hoi a tâco nahoi kum 480, Isarelnaw Solomon ni a uknae kum 4 nah, Ziv thapa, ayung hni nah BAWIPA e im sak hane a kamtawng awh.
2 The house which King Solomon built for Yahweh had a length of sixty cubits, and its width twenty, and its height thirty cubits.
Solomon ni BAWIPA e im a sak e teh ayung dong 60, adangka dong 20, arasang dong 30 touh a pha.
3 The porch in front of the temple of the house had a length of twenty cubits, which was along the width of the house. Ten cubits was its width in front of the house.
Hahoi im hmuen kathoung imhma lae alawilah teh, adangka hoi kâvan lah dong 20 touh a saw teh, a hma lae adangka teh dong 10 touh a pha.
4 He made windows of fixed lattice work for the house.
Im dawk ang sak nahanelah kathounge hlalangawnaw hai a sak.
5 Against the wall of the house, he built floors all around, against the walls of the house all around, both of the temple and of the inner sanctuary; and he made side rooms all around.
Bawkim tapang hoi kâkuen lah imrakhan buet touh a sak teh, hot ni yah bawkim tapang koung a kalup. Thoungnae hoi athungpoung lae hmuen kathoung hai mek a kalup sin teh, petkâkalup lah rakhancanaw hah a sak.
6 The lowest floor was five cubits wide, and the middle was six cubits wide, and the third was seven cubits wide; for on the outside he made offsets in the wall of the house all around, that the beams should not be inserted into the walls of the house.
A rahim lae rakhan teh dong 5, alungui e rakhan teh dong 6, a lathueng e rakhan teh dong 7 touh a pha. Bangkongtetpawiteh, rakhannaw teh im e tapang dawk kâen hoeh.
7 The house, when it was under construction, was built of stone prepared at the quarry; and no hammer or ax or any tool of iron was heard in the house while it was under construction.
Hahoi, Bawkim a sak awh nah, hote hmuen koe sin hoehnahlan dêi tangcoung e talungnaw hoi sak e lah ao dawkvah, cakkin, cakâ, sum pawlawk bawkim thung thai e lah awm hoeh.
8 The door for the middle side rooms was in the right side of the house. They went up by winding stairs into the middle floor, and out of the middle into the third.
A rahim e rakhan dawk kâennae tho teh, bawkim e arasang lah a o, alungui e rakhan dawk teh khalai hoi luen lah ao teh, alungui e rakhan dawk hoi a lathueng e khan dawk luen lah ao.
9 So he built the house and finished it; and he covered the house with beams and planks of cedar.
Hottelah bawkim teh a cum awh. Bawkim e parei thingtunaw hah Sidar thing e pangkhek hoi thingphek hoi a ramuk awh.
10 He built the floors all along the house, each five cubits high; and they rested on the house with timbers of cedar.
Bawkim petkâkalup lah sak e a dotnaw teh, a rasang dong 5, imhmawt teh bawkim dawk a kâkuetsak.
11 Yahweh’s word came to Solomon, saying,
BAWIPA e lawk Solomon koe a pha teh,
12 “Concerning this house which you are building, if you will walk in my statutes, and execute my ordinances, and keep all my commandments to walk in them, then I will establish my word with you, which I spoke to David your father.
Na sak lahun e bawkim kong dawk, ka phunglam, lawkcengnae hoi kâpoelawknaw pueng na tarawi pawiteh, na pa Devit koe ka dei tangcoung e kâlawk hah na lathueng vah ka cak sak han.
13 I will dwell among the children of Israel, and will not forsake my people Israel.”
Isarel catounnaw koe kho ka sak vaiteh, ka tami Isarelnaw heh ka cettakhai mahoeh telah a ti.
14 So Solomon built the house and finished it.
Hottelah, Solomon ni bawkim a sak teh a cum.
15 He built the walls of the house within with boards of cedar; from the floor of the house to the walls of the ceiling, he covered them on the inside with wood. He covered the floor of the house with cypress boards.
Bawkim a thung lae tapang teh Sidar thing hoi a sak. Carawng hoi lemphu, tapang totouh a thung e rakhan totouh, koung a bet, carawng teh hmaica thing hoi a sak.
16 He built twenty cubits of the back part of the house with boards of cedar from the floor to the ceiling. He built this within, for an inner sanctuary, even for the most holy place.
Hmuen kathoung hoi kathoungpounge hmuen hanlah ayung, adangka dong 20 touh ka kaw e im hah rakhan teh carawng teh Sidar thing hoi a sak.
17 In front of the temple sanctuary was forty cubits long.
Hote rakhan hmalah sak e bawkim teh, ayung dong 40 touh a pha.
18 There was cedar on the house within, carved with buds and open flowers. All was cedar. No stone was visible.
Bawkim thungvah, Sidar thingpheknaw dawk tuiumpaw, a peinaw hoi akawi, talung kamnue hoeh nahanelah Sidar thing hoi a ramuk.
19 He prepared an inner sanctuary in the middle of the house within, to set the ark of Yahweh’s covenant there.
Hottelah, BAWIPA e lawkkam thingkong hruek nahanelah, bawkim thungvah hmuen kathoung a rakueng awh.
20 Within the inner sanctuary was twenty cubits in length, and twenty cubits in width, and twenty cubits in its height. He overlaid it with pure gold. He covered the altar with cedar.
Hote hmuen kathoung teh ayung dong 20, adangka dong 20, arasang dong 20 touh a pha. Hot teh, kathounge suitui hoi a hluk teh, Sidar khoungroe hai a hluk.
21 So Solomon overlaid the house within with pure gold. He drew chains of gold across before the inner sanctuary, and he overlaid it with gold.
Hottelah, Solomon ni bawkim thung teh kathounge suitui hoi koung a hluk.
22 He overlaid the whole house with gold, until all the house was finished. He also overlaid the whole altar that belonged to the inner sanctuary with gold.
Bawkim teh abuemlahoi suitui hoi a hluk teh hmuen kathoung teng e khoungroe hai satui hoi a hluk.
23 In the inner sanctuary he made two cherubim of olive wood, each ten cubits high.
Hmuen kathoung koevah dong 10 reira ka rasang e Cherubim kahni touh olive thing hoi a sak.
24 Five cubits was the length of one wing of the cherub, and five cubits was the length of the other wing of the cherub. From the tip of one wing to the tip of the other was ten cubits.
Cherubim rathei avanglae dong 5 touh a pha teh, avanglae hai dong 5 touh a pha. A rathei hmo buet touh hoi buet touh rahak vah dong 10 touh a pha.
25 The other cherub was ten cubits. Both the cherubim were of one measure and one form.
Cherubim buet touh dawk dong 10 touh a rasang. Cherubim buet touh e hai hottelah doeh.
26 One cherub was ten cubits high, and so was the other cherub.
Hote cherubim teh im e athunglah a hruek awh teh, a ratheinaw teh a kadai.
27 He set the cherubim within the inner house. The wings of the cherubim were stretched out, so that the wing of the one touched the one wall and the wing of the other cherub touched the other wall; and their wings touched one another in the middle of the house.
Buet touh e rathei ni tapang a kâbet teh cherubim buet touh e rathei ni hai avanglae tapang hah a kâbet. Hahoi alungui vah cherubim rathei kahni touh e hah a kâhmo roi.
28 He overlaid the cherubim with gold.
Cherubim teh satui hoi a hluk.
29 He carved all the walls of the house around with carved figures of cherubim, palm trees, and open flowers, inside and outside.
Bawkim a thung lae tapang hoi alawilae tapang dawk thuk e cherubim mei hoi a pei ka pei e samtuekung mei naw hai ao.
30 He overlaid the floor of the house with gold, inside and outside.
Hahoi, bawkim thung e carawng hoi alawilae carawng naw teh suitui hoi a hluk.
31 For the entrance of the inner sanctuary, he made doors of olive wood. The lintel and door posts were a fifth part of the wall.
Athung lae hmuen kathoung kâennae takhang teh, olive thing hoi a sak. Tho tâphai hoi tho tangkhang teh tapang pung panga touh dawk pung touh hoi a kâvan.
32 So he made two doors of olive wood; and he carved on them carvings of cherubim, palm trees, and open flowers, and overlaid them with gold. He spread the gold on the cherubim and on the palm trees.
Hottelah olive thing hoi tho kahni touh a sak teh, hawvah cherubim hoi apei ka pei e samtuekungnaw dawk hai suitui a hluk.
33 He also made the entrance of the temple door posts of olive wood, out of a fourth part of the wall,
Hot patetlah, hmuen kathoung thung kâennae tho takhangnaw hai olive thing hoi a tâphai, a tangkhang naw sak lah ao.
34 and two doors of cypress wood. The two leaves of the one door were folding, and the two leaves of the other door were folding.
Tho buet touh dawk tâbaw kahni touh hoi, kâhei thai e hmaicathing hoi tho kahni touh hai a sak.
35 He carved cherubim, palm trees, and open flowers; and he overlaid them with gold fitted on the engraved work.
Tho koevah, cherubim hoi a pei ka pei e samtuekung e mei naw a sak teh, a em suitui hoi kahawicalah a hluk.
36 He built the inner court with three courses of cut stone and a course of cedar beams.
Athung lae thongma hai bo e talung than thum touh hoi, Sidar thingphek dot touh hoi patuen patuen a sak sin.
37 The foundation of Yahweh’s house was laid in the fourth year, in the month Ziv.
A kum 4, Ziv thapa nah BAWIPA e im teh adu a ung awh.
38 In the eleventh year, in the month Bul, which is the eighth month, the house was finished throughout all its parts and according to all its specifications. So he spent seven years building it.
Hahoi, kum 12, Bul thapa, thapa yung taroe nah im teh a kâcai awh e patetlah hnonaw pueng he a cum awh teh, kum 7 touh a ro awh.
