< Kronika 2 3 >
1 Tete Solomo na wodze Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ la tutu gɔme. Wotui ɖe Yerusalem, le Moria to la dzi, afi si Yehowa ɖe eɖokui fia Solomo fofo, Fia David le, afi si Arauna, Yebusitɔ la ƒe lugbɔƒe nɔ. David tia teƒe ma be wòanye gbedoxɔ la ƒe nɔƒe.
Then Solomon began to build the LORD’s house at Jerusalem on Mount Moriah, where the LORD appeared to David his father, which he prepared in the place that David had appointed, on the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
2 Xɔtutu la ŋutɔ dze egɔme le ɣleti evelia ƒe ŋkeke evelia dzi le Fia Solomo ƒe fiaɖuɖu ƒe ƒe enelia me.
He began to build in the second day of the second month, in the fourth year of his reign.
3 Gɔmeɖokpe si Solomo ɖo na Mawu ƒe gbedoxɔ la didi mita blaeve-vɔ-adre eye wòkeke mita asieke le nudzidzenu xoxo la nu.
Now these are the foundations which Solomon laid for the building of God’s house: the length by cubits after the first measure was sixty cubits, and the width twenty cubits.
4 Akpata si nɔ gbedoxɔ la ŋkume la didi mita asieke va se ɖe gbedoxɔ la ƒe kekeme eye wòkɔ mita blaatɔ̃-vɔ-ene. Wofa sika nyuitɔ ɖe eme katã.
The porch that was in front, its length, across the width of the house, was twenty cubits, and the height one hundred and twenty; and he overlaid it within with pure gold.
5 Woklã sesewuʋuƒowo ɖe gbedoxɔ la ŋutɔ me, wofa sika nyuitɔ ɖe ʋuƒoawo ŋu eye woɖe detiwo kple kɔsɔkɔsɔwo ɖe sika la me.
He made the larger room with a ceiling of cypress wood, which he overlaid with fine gold, and ornamented it with palm trees and chains.
6 Etsɔ kpe xɔasi siwo nya kpɔna ŋutɔ la ɖo ɖe gliawo me be woado xɔa me ƒe nyonyo ɖe ŋgɔ. Sika la nye sika nyuitɔ tso Parvaim.
He decorated the house with precious stones for beauty. The gold was gold from Parvaim.
7 Wofa sika si me woɖe mawudɔlawo ɖo la ɖe gbedoxɔ la ƒe gliwo, daɖedziwo, ʋɔtruwo kple kpuiawo katã ŋu.
He also overlaid the house, the beams, the thresholds, its walls, and its doors with gold, and engraved cherubim on the walls.
8 Teƒe si woyɔna be Kɔkɔeƒe Ƒe Kɔkɔeƒe la le gbedoxɔ la ƒe akpa ɖeka. Eƒe didime nye mita asieke eye eƒe kekeme hã nye mita asieke. Wofa sika si ƒe kpekpeme nye “tɔn” blaeve-vɔ-ɖekɛ la ɖe gliawo ŋu.
He made the most holy place. Its length, according to the width of the house, was twenty cubits, and its width twenty cubits; and he overlaid it with fine gold, amounting to six hundred talents.
9 Sikagatagbadzɛ siwo ŋu dɔ wowɔ la dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe ƒe kpekpeme nye gram alafa atɔ̃ blaadre. Wofa sika ɖe xɔtaxɔawo hã me.
The weight of the nails was fifty shekels of gold. He overlaid the upper rooms with gold.
10 Solomo na wowɔ mawudɔla eve, efa sika ɖe wo ŋu eye wòtsɔ wo da ɖe xɔ, emetɔ, si nye Kɔkɔeƒe ƒe Kɔkɔeƒe la me.
In the most holy place he made two cherubim by carving, and they overlaid them with gold.
11 Kerubiawo ƒe aʋalawo ƒe didime le mita ewo. Kerubi gbãtɔ ƒe aʋala ɖeka didi mita eve kple afã eye wotɔ gbedoxɔ la ƒe gli. Aʋala evelia, si hã didi mita eve kple afã la tɔ kerubi evelia ƒe aʋala ɖeka.
The wings of the cherubim were twenty cubits long: the wing of the one was five cubits, reaching to the wall of the house; and the other wing was five cubits, reaching to the wing of the other cherub.
12 Nenema ke kerubi evelia ƒe aʋala ɖeka, si didi mita eve kple afã la tɔ gbedoxɔ la ƒe gli eye eƒe aʋala evelia, si hã didi mita eve kple afã la, tɔ kerubi gbãtɔ ƒe aʋala.
The wing of the other cherub was five cubits, reaching to the wall of the house; and the other wing was five cubits, joining to the wing of the other cherub.
13 Kerubi eveawo ƒe aʋalawo didi mita ewo. Wole tsitrenu eye wodze ŋgɔ xɔ gã la.
The wings of these cherubim spread themselves out twenty cubits. They stood on their feet, and their faces were towards the house.
14 Etsi xɔmetsovɔ si nye aklala si wotsɔ aɖabɛ blɔtɔ kple dzĩtɔ ƒe ka lɔ̃e eye wota mawudɔlawo ɖe eme la ɖe xɔ sia ƒe mɔnu.
He made the veil of blue, purple, crimson, and fine linen, and ornamented it with cherubim.
15 Sɔti eve le gbedoxɔ la ƒe mɔnu. Ɖe sia ɖe kɔ mita wuiade. Wotsɔ taɖonu si do tso xɔgbagba la te la ɖo ta na sɔtiawo eye ɖe sia ɖe kɔ mita eve kple afã.
Also he made before the house two pillars thirty-five cubits high, and the capital that was on the top of each of them was five cubits.
16 Ewɔ kɔsɔkɔsɔwo da ɖe Kɔkɔeƒe ƒe Kɔkɔeƒe la, le sɔtiawo tame eye wòtsi yevuboɖa alafa ɖeka ɖe kɔsɔkɔsɔawo ŋu.
He made chains in the inner sanctuary, and put them on the tops of the pillars; and he made one hundred pomegranates, and put them on the chains.
17 Etu sɔti eve ɖe gbedoxɔ la ŋkume, ɖeka ɖe dziehe gome, evelia ɖe anyiehe gome eye wòna ŋkɔ wo. Woyɔa dziehetɔ be, Yakin eye woyɔa anyiehetɔ be, Boaz.
He set up the pillars before the temple, one on the right hand and the other on the left; and called the name of that on the right hand Jachin, and the name of that on the left Boaz.
