Fiawo 1 7
1 Solomo tu fiasã na eɖokui; fiasã la tutu xɔ ƒe wuietɔ̃.
Solomon was building his own house thirteen years, and he finished all his house.
2 Woyɔa fiasã la ƒe xɔ ɖeka be, “Lebanon ƒe Avexɔ.” Elolo ŋutɔ, edidi mita blaene-vɔ-ade, keke mita blaeve-vɔ-etɔ̃ eye wòkɔ mita wuietɔ̃ kple afã. Sedati ƒe daɖedzi gãwo nɔ sedati ƒe sɔti siwo wotu ɖe agbaka ene me la dzi.
For he built the House of the Forest of Lebanon. Its length was one hundred cubits, its width fifty cubits, and its height thirty cubits, on four rows of cedar pillars, with cedar beams on the pillars.
3 Wogbae kple sedati ɖe daɖedziawo tame. Daɖedziawo nɔ sɔti blaene-vɔ-atɔ̃awo dzi. Sɔti wuiatɔ̃ nɔ agbaka etɔ̃ dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe me.
It was covered with cedar above over the forty-five beams that were on the pillars, fifteen in a row.
4 Eɖe fesreawo ɖe kɔkɔƒe; fesre etɔ̃ nɔ axa ɖeka, etɔ̃ hã nɔ axa bubu eye wodze ŋgɔ wo nɔewo.
There were beams in three rows, and window was facing window in three ranks.
5 Ʋɔtrutiawo ƒe kekeme kple didime siaa sɔ, nenema kee fesretiwo tɔ hã sɔe. Wonɔ agbaka etɔ̃ me eye wodze ŋgɔ wo nɔewo.
All the doors and posts were made square with beams; and window was facing window in three ranks.
6 Woyɔ xɔ bubu be Sɔtiwo Ƒe Xɔ. Edidi mita blaadre-vɔ-etɔ̃ eye wòkeke mita wuietɔ̃ kple afã. Akpata aɖe nɔ ŋgɔ na xɔ sia. Wogba akpata sia ɖe sɔtiwo dzi.
He made the hall of pillars. Its length was fifty cubits and its width thirty cubits, with a porch before them, and pillars and a threshold before them.
7 Fiazikpuixɔ alo Ʋɔnudrɔ̃xɔ hã nɔ anyi, afi si Fia Solomo drɔ̃a ʋɔnu le. Efa sedaʋuƒowo ɖe gliawo ŋu tso anyigba ɖatɔ daɖedziawo.
He made the porch of the throne where he was to judge, even the porch of judgment; and it was covered with cedar from floor to floor.
8 Fia Solomo tu eya ŋutɔ ƒe nɔƒe ɖe xɔ sia megbe. Efa sedaʋuƒowo ɖe gliawo ŋu eye wòtu akpata aɖe ƒo xlãe. Egatu xɔ sia tɔgbi tututu ɖe fiasã la me na Fia Farao ƒe vinyɔnu, ame si nye srɔ̃awo dometɔ ɖeka.
His house where he was to dwell, the other court within the porch, was of the same construction. He made also a house for Pharaoh’s daughter (whom Solomon had taken as wife), like this porch.
9 Woɖo gli siawo katã tso gota va se ɖe xɔxɔnu gã la eye tso gɔmeɖokpe dzi va se ɖe kpe siwo wotsɔ ƒo xɔtae la dzi. Kpe siawo nye kpe xɔasi siwo wokpa kple laxalaxa eye wozrɔ̃ wo ŋkume kple wo godo siaa.
All these were of costly stones, even of stone cut according to measure, sawed with saws, inside and outside, even from the foundation to the coping, and so on the outside to the great court.
10 Woɖo xɔ la ƒe gɔmeɖokpewo kple kpe xɔasi gãwo eye ɖewo ƒe didime anɔ mita ene kple afã eye ɖewo hã etɔ̃ kple afã.
The foundation was of costly stones, even great stones, stones of ten cubits and stones of eight cubits.
11 Woɖo gliawo ƒe dziƒogbɔ kple kpe xɔasi siwo wokpa ɖe dzidzeme nyuitɔ nu eye wotsɔ sedatiwo da ɖe wo dzi.
Above were costly stones, even cut stone, according to measure, and cedar wood.
12 Wotsɔ kpe siwo woɖo atsyɔ̃ na la ɖo gli kpui aɖe ƒo xlã xɔxɔnu gãtɔ la eye le gli kpui la tame la, wotsɔ sedati si ŋuti woƒlɔ wòzrɔ̃ nyuie la ɖo ɖe etame abe ale si wowɔe le Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ ƒe xɔxɔnu emetɔ kple eƒe akpata me la ene.
The great court around had three courses of cut stone with a course of cedar beams, like the inner court of Yahweh’s house and the porch of the house.
13 Azɔ Fia Solomo ɖo du ɖe ŋutsu aɖe si ŋkɔe nye Huram la tso Tiro be wòava.
King Solomon sent and brought Hiram out of Tyre.
14 Huram nye Yuda nyɔnu aɖe si tso Naftali ƒomea me eye wònye ahosi aɖe ƒe vi. Fofoa nye akɔblinutula tso Tiro, ale aɖaŋu, nugɔmesese kple nunya geɖe le tagbɔ nɛ eye wònya akɔbliɖaŋu vovovowo wɔwɔ. Eva Fia Solomo gbɔ eye wòwɔ dɔ siwo katã wode asi nɛ.
He was the son of a widow of the tribe of Naphtali, and his father was a man of Tyre, a worker in bronze; and he was filled with wisdom and understanding and skill to work all works in bronze. He came to King Solomon and performed all his work.
15 Hiram tsɔ akɔbli tu sɔti eve siwo me do le, ɖe sia ɖe kɔ mita enyi kple nu sue aɖe.
For he fashioned the two pillars of bronze, eighteen cubits high apiece; and a line of twelve cubits encircled either of them.
16 Ewɔ tameɖonu eve kple akɔbli be woatsɔ aɖo sɔtiawo dzi. Tameɖonu ɖe sia ɖe kɔ mita eve kple afã.
He made two capitals of molten bronze to set on the tops of the pillars. The height of the one capital was five cubits, and the height of the other capital was five cubits.
17 Ewɔ gaɖɔwo kple kɔsɔkɔsɔ adreadre da ɖe sɔtiawo tame.
There were nets of checker work and wreaths of chain work for the capitals which were on the top of the pillars: seven for the one capital, and seven for the other capital.
18 Ewɔ seƒoƒowo ɖe fli eve me, woƒo xlã gaɖɔ ɖe sia ɖe be woaɖo atsyɔ̃ na tameɖonuawo dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe.
So he made the pillars; and there were two rows of pomegranates around the one network, to cover the capitals that were on the top of the pillars; and he did so for the other capital.
19 Wowɔ tameɖonu na sɔti siwo le akpata la me la ɖe dzogbenya ƒe nɔnɔme me, ɖe sia ɖe kɔ mita eve.
The capitals that were on the top of the pillars in the porch were of lily work, four cubits.
20 Wota seƒoƒo alafa eve ɖe agbaka eve me ƒo xlã tameɖonu siwo le sɔtiawo tame la dzi.
There were capitals above also on the two pillars, close by the belly which was beside the network. There were two hundred pomegranates in rows around the other capital.
21 Hiram da sɔti eve siawo ɖe gbedoxɔ la ƒe mɔnu. Esi le dziehe gome la ŋkɔe nye Yakin eye esi le anyiehe gome ŋkɔe nye Boaz.
He set up the pillars at the porch of the temple. He set up the right pillar and called its name Jachin; and he set up the left pillar and called its name Boaz.
22 Wotsɔ tameɖonu siwo wowɔ ɖe dzogbenya ƒe nɔnɔme me la da ɖe sɔtiawo tame, ale wowu sɔtiawo ŋuti dɔwo nu.
On the tops of the pillars was lily work. So the work of the pillars was finished.
23 Emegbe la, Etsɔ gayibɔ wɔ gazɔ si le nogoo, eƒe ta ƒe kekeme anɔ mita eve kple afã kpe ɖo, gazɔ la ƒe kɔkɔme anɔ mita ɖeka kple afã. Ne wodzidze zɔ la ƒe kekeme blibo la, anɔ mita wuietɔ̃ kple afã.
He made the molten sea ten cubits from brim to brim, round in shape. Its height was five cubits; and a line of thirty cubits encircled it.
24 Le zɔ la te lɔƒo la, wowɔ go siwo dome nɔ sentimita ene alo eve eye wonɔ agbaka eve me. Wololõ akɔbli wɔ wo kpe ɖe gazɔ la ŋu.
Under its brim around there were buds which encircled it for ten cubits, encircling the sea. The buds were in two rows, cast when it was cast.
25 Wotsɔ zɔ la da ɖe nyitsu wuieve dzi. Etɔ̃ dze ŋgɔ anyiehe, etɔ̃ dze ŋgɔ ɣetoɖoƒe, etɔ̃ dze ŋgɔ dziehe eye etɔ̃ dze ŋgɔ ɣedzeƒe. Wotsɔ zɔ la da ɖe wo tame eye zɔ la ƒe afɔwo le woƒe titina.
It stood on twelve oxen, three looking toward the north, and three looking toward the west, and three looking toward the south, and three looking toward the east; and the sea was set on them above, and all their hindquarters were inward.
26 Zɔ la tri sentimita enyi, eƒe to le abe tsinokplu tɔ ene eye wowɔe abe ale si dzogbenya ƒe seƒoƒo le ene. Exɔa tsi kilolita blaene-vɔ-ene.
It was a hand width thick. Its brim was worked like the brim of a cup, like the flower of a lily. It held two thousand baths.
27 Etsɔ akɔbli wɔ nunɔdzi ewo, tasiaɖam ƒe afɔwo nɔ ɖe sia ɖe te. Nunɔdzi ɖe sia ɖe ƒe didime kple kekeme nye mita eve eye wòkɔ mita ɖeka kple afã.
He made the ten bases of bronze. The length of one base was four cubits, four cubits its width, and three cubits its height.
28 Wowɔ wo kple akɔbli gbadza siwo woda ɖe akɔblitiwo dzi.
The work of the bases was like this: they had panels; and there were panels between the ledges;
29 Wota dzatawo, nyitsuwo kple Kerubiwo ɖe akɔbli gbadzawo dzi. Wota seƒoƒotsihewo ɖe gatiawo dzi le dzataawo kple nyitsuawo tame kple wo te siaa.
and on the panels that were between the ledges were lions, oxen, and cherubim; and on the ledges there was a pedestal above; and beneath the lions and oxen were wreaths of hanging work.
30 Hiram tsɔ akɔbli wɔ tasiaɖamfɔ ene kple woƒe troƒewo ɖe nunɔdzi ɖe sia ɖe te. Zɔawo nɔ dzogoe eneawo dzi eye wodze ŋgɔ wo nɔewo.
Every base had four bronze wheels and axles of bronze; and its four feet had supports. The supports were cast beneath the basin, with wreaths at the side of each.
31 Wotsyɔ nu zɔawo nu. Nutsyɔnuawo do ɖe dzi sentimita blaene-vɔ-atɔ̃ eye wogabi do ɖe anyigba le eme.
Its opening within the capital and above was a cubit. Its opening was round like the work of a pedestal, a cubit and a half; and also on its opening were engravings, and their panels were square, not round.
32 Akɔblifɔawo kɔ sentimita blaade-vɔ-ade. Wonɔ akɔbli gbadzawo te eye wotu troƒeawo kple tasiaɖamuawo ɖekae.
The four wheels were underneath the panels; and the axles of the wheels were in the base. The height of a wheel was a cubit and half a cubit.
33 Woƒe afɔwo le abe tasiaɖam ƒe afɔwo ene. Wotsɔ akɔbli wɔ tasiaɖam la ƒe akpa ɖe sia ɖe.
The work of the wheels was like the work of a chariot wheel. Their axles, their rims, their spokes, and their hubs were all of cast metal.
34 Wotsɔ akɔbli wɔ sɔti suewo kple nunɔdziawo ɖekae ɖe woƒe dzogoewo me.
There were four supports at the four corners of each base. Its supports were of the base itself.
35 Womli nunɔdzi la ƒe nu wokɔ sentimita blaeve-vɔ-ade eye towo kple akɔgo le eŋu.
In the top of the base there was a round band half a cubit high; and on the top of the base its supports and its panels were the same.
36 Wota Kerubiwo, dzatawo kple detiwo eye wofa seƒoƒowo ƒo xlã wo togawo afi sia afi si mɔ nɔ la ko.
On the plates of its supports and on its panels, he engraved cherubim, lions, and palm trees, each in its space, with wreaths all around.
37 Nunɔdzi ewoawo katã sɔ le lolome eye woɖi wo nɔewo elabena wololõ woƒe akɔbli kɔ ɖe nu ɖeka ma ke me le wo wɔɣi.
He made the ten bases in this way: all of them had one casting, one measure, and one form.
38 Hiram tsɔ gadzẽ wɔ ze ewo da ɖe nunɔdziawo dzi, ze ɖe sia ɖe keke eye wòdidi mita eve eye wòxɔa tsi lita alafa enyi blaenyi.
He made ten basins of bronze. One basin contained forty baths. Every basin measured four cubits. One basin was on every one of the ten bases.
39 Woɖi ze atɔ̃ ɖe gbedoxɔ la ƒe dziehe eye woɖi atɔ̃ bubu hã ɖe eƒe anyiehe. Zɔ la nɔ dzogoe si nɔ dziehe kple ɣedzeƒe dome la me le xɔa me le ɖusime.
He set the bases, five on the right side of the house and five on the left side of the house. He set the sea on the right side of the house eastward and toward the south.
40 Huram gawɔ zewo, sofiwo kple trewo. Ale wòwu dɔ si Fia Solomo ɖo nɛ le Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ me la nu. Nu siwo wòwɔ la woe nye esiawo:
Hiram made the pots, the shovels, and the basins. So Hiram finished doing all the work that he worked for King Solomon in Yahweh’s house:
41 Sɔti eve; tameɖonu ɖeka ɖeka na sɔti eveawo; wotsi kɔsɔkɔsɔ eve ɖe tameɖonu nogoawo ŋu le sɔtiawo tame.
the two pillars; the two bowls of the capitals that were on the top of the pillars; the two networks to cover the two bowls of the capitals that were on the top of the pillars;
42 Yevuboɖa alafa ene le agbaka eve me le gaɖɔ ɖeka ŋu ne woxe ta mligo eve siwo le sɔtiawo tame la ŋu;
the four hundred pomegranates for the two networks; two rows of pomegranates for each network, to cover the two bowls of the capitals that were on the pillars;
43 nunɔdzi ewo kple ze ewo siwo nɔ nunɔdziawo dzi;
the ten bases; the ten basins on the bases;
44 gazɔ ɖeka kple nyitsu wuieve siwo le gazɔ la te;
the one sea; the twelve oxen under the sea;
45 zewo, sofiwo kple trewo. Nu siawo katã Huram wɔ na Fia Solomo hena Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ la kple akɔbli si ŋu wozrɔ̃.
the pots; the shovels; and the basins. All of these vessels, which Hiram made for King Solomon in Yahweh’s house, were of burnished bronze.
46 Fia la na wololõ ga la kɔ ɖe nu si wowɔ ɖe nuawo ƒe nɔnɔme me le Yɔdan tɔsisi la ƒe balime le Sukɔt kple Zaretan dome.
The king cast them in the plain of the Jordan, in the clay ground between Succoth and Zarethan.
47 Solomo mena woda nuawo kpɔ o, elabena akɔbliawo sɔ gbɔ ale gbegbe be, womate ŋu adae o.
Solomon left all the vessels unweighed, because there were so many of them. The weight of the bronze could not be determined.
48 Solomo na wotsɔ sika nyuitɔ wɔ Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ la me nuwo katã. Nu siawoe nye: vɔsamlekpui, kplɔ̃ si dzi wodaa Ŋkumeɖobolo ɖo;
Solomon made all the vessels that were in Yahweh’s house: the golden altar and the table that the show bread was on, of gold;
49 akaɖitiwo, atɔ̃ le ɖusime eye atɔ̃ hã le miame, le Kɔkɔeƒe ƒe Kɔkɔeƒe la ŋgɔ, seƒoƒowo, akaɖiwo kple ɖovulãnuwo.
and the lamp stands, five on the right side and five on the left, in front of the inner sanctuary, of pure gold; and the flowers, the lamps, and the tongs, of gold;
50 Wotsɔ sika nyuitɔ wɔ kpluwo, hɛwo, agbawo, gatsiwo kple nutɔgbawo kple Kɔkɔeƒe ƒe Kɔkɔeƒe la ƒe ʋɔtrugawo kple gbedoxɔ la ƒe mɔnuʋɔtru.
the cups, the snuffers, the basins, the spoons, and the fire pans, of pure gold; and the hinges, both for the doors of the inner house, the most holy place, and for the doors of the house, of the temple, of gold.
51 Esi wowu Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ la nu mlɔeba la, Fia Solomo tsɔ klosalo kple sika kple nu siwo katã ŋu fofoa, Fia David, kɔ hena gbedoxɔ la, da ɖe Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ la ƒe nudzraɖoƒe la me.
Thus all the work that King Solomon did in Yahweh’s house was finished. Solomon brought in the things which David his father had dedicated—the silver, the gold, and the vessels—and put them in the treasuries of Yahweh’s house.
