1 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Solomoni akĩambĩrĩria gwaka hekarũ ya Jehova kũu Jerusalemu Kĩrĩma-inĩ kĩa Moria, harĩa Jehova oimĩrĩire ithe Daudi. Hau nĩho kĩhuhĩro-inĩ kĩa ngano kĩa Arauna ũrĩa Mũjebusi, handũ harĩa Daudi aaheanĩte hekarũ ĩgaakwo.
Then Solomon made a start at building the house of the Lord on Mount Moriah in Jerusalem, where the Lord had been seen by his father David, in the place which David had made ready in the grain-floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
2 Aambĩrĩirie gwaka mũthenya wa ĩĩrĩ wa mweri wa keerĩ, mwaka wa ĩna wa ũthamaki wake.
The building was started in the second month in the fourth year of his rule.
3 Mũthingi ũrĩa Solomoni eenjire nĩ ũndũ wa gwaka hekarũ ya Ngai warĩ mĩkono mĩrongo ĩtandatũ kũraiha na mĩkono mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ kwarama, gũgĩtũmĩrwo mĩkono ya gĩthimo gĩa tene.
And Solomon put the base of the house of God in position; by the older measure it was sixty cubits long and twenty cubits wide.
4 Nakĩo gĩthaku kĩrĩa kĩarĩ hau mbere ya hekarũ kĩarĩ kĩa mĩkono mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ kũraiha, gĩkĩranĩtie wariĩ wa nyũmba ĩyo, na mĩkono mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ kũraiha na igũrũ. Mwena wa thĩinĩ wakĩo akĩũgemia na thahabu ĩrĩa therie.
And the covered way in front of the house was twenty cubits long, as wide as the house, and a hundred and twenty cubits high, all plated inside with the best gold.
5 Akĩhũũrĩra nyũmba ĩrĩa nene mbaũ cia mĩthengera na agĩcihumbĩra na thahabu ĩrĩa njega mũno, na akĩmĩgemia na mĩcoro ya mĩkĩndũ na mĩcoro ya irengeeri.
And the greater house was roofed with cypress-wood, plated with the best gold and ornamented with designs of palm-trees and chains.
6 Aagemirie hekarũ na tũhiga twa goro. Nayo thahabu ĩrĩa aahũthĩrire yarĩ thahabu ya Paravaimu.
And the house was made beautiful with stones of great value, and the gold was gold of Parvaim.
7 Nacio mbaũ cia mĩratho, na buremu cia mĩrango, na thingo, na mĩrango ya hekarũ, agĩcigemia na thahabu, na agĩkururithia mĩhiano ya makerubi thingo-inĩ.
All the house was plated with gold, the supports, the steps, the walls and the doors; and the walls were ornamented with designs of winged ones.
8 Ningĩ Solomoni agĩaka Handũ-harĩa-Hatheru-Mũno, ũraihu waho waringaine na wariĩ wa hekarũ, mĩkono mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ kũraiha na mĩkono mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ kwarama. Akĩgemia thĩinĩ waho na taranda 600 cia thahabu ĩrĩa njega mũno.
And he made the most holy place; it was twenty cubits long, and twenty cubits wide, like the greater house, and was plated all over with the best gold; six hundred talents were used for it.
9 Ũritũ wa mĩcumarĩ ya thahabu warĩ wa cekeri mĩrongo ĩtano. Ningĩ agĩcooka akĩgemia mĩena ya na igũrũ ya hau Hatheru-Mũno na thahabu.
And fifty shekels weight of gold was used for the nails. He had all the higher rooms plated with gold.
10 Thĩinĩ wa Handũ-harĩa-Hatheru-Mũno nĩakururithirie makerubi meerĩ na akĩmagemia na thahabu.
And in the most holy place he made images of two winged beings, covering them with gold.
11 Ũraihu wa mathagu ma makerubi wothe warĩ mĩkono mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ. Ithagu rĩmwe rĩa ikerubi rĩa mbere rĩarĩ rĩa mĩkono ĩtano kũraiha na rĩkahutia rũthingo rwa hekarũ, narĩo ithagu rĩu rĩngĩ o narĩo rĩarĩ rĩa mĩkono ĩtano kũraiha na rĩkahutia ithagu rĩa ikerubi rĩu rĩngĩ.
Their outstretched wings were twenty cubits across; one wing, five cubits long, touching the wall of the house, and the other, of the same size, meeting the wing of the other winged one.
12 O narĩo ithagu rĩmwe rĩa ikerubi rĩa keerĩ rĩarĩ na ũraihu wa mĩkono ĩtano na rĩkahutia rũthingo rũu rũngĩ rwa hekarũ, na ithagu rĩu rĩngĩ rĩarĩo o narĩo rĩarĩ na ũraihu wa mĩkono ĩtano na rĩkahutia ithagu rĩa ikerubi rĩa mbere.
And in the same way, the wings of the other, five cubits long, were stretched out, one touching the wall and the other meeting the wing of the first winged one.
13 Mathagu ma makerubi maya maarĩ na ũraihu wa mĩkono mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ. Maicũhĩtio marũgamĩte na magũrũ, na mangʼetheire nyũmba nene.
Their outstretched wings were twenty cubits across; they were placed upright on their feet, facing the inner part of the house.
14 Solomoni nĩathondekire gĩtambaya gĩa gũcuurio kĩa ndigi cia rangi wa bururu, na cia rangi wa ndathi na cia rangi mũtune ta gakarakũ na gĩa gatani ĩrĩa njega, na mĩhiano ya makerubi nĩyatumĩrĩirwo gĩtambaya-inĩ kĩu.
And he made the veil of blue and purple and red, of the best linen, worked with winged ones.
15 Mwena wa mbere wa hekarũ agĩaka itugĩ igĩrĩ, na cierĩ ciarĩ na ũraihu wa mĩkono mĩrongo ĩtatũ na ĩtano; o gĩtugĩ kĩarĩ na kĩongo igũrũ rĩakĩo kĩa mũigana wa mĩkono ĩtano.
And in front of the house he made two pillars, thirty-five cubits high, with crowns on the tops of them, five cubits high.
16 Nĩathondekire irengeeri igathĩkanĩtio, na agĩciigĩrĩra igũrũ rĩa itugĩ icio. Ningĩ nĩathondekire mĩhiano igana rĩmwe ya matunda ma makomamanga na akĩmĩnyiitithania na irengeeri icio ciagathĩkanĩtio.
And he made chains, like neck ornaments, and put them on the tops of the pillars, and a hundred apples on the chains.
17 Aakire itugĩ icio mwena wa mbere wa hekarũ, kĩmwe mwena wa gũthini, na kĩrĩa kĩngĩ mwena wa gathigathini. Kĩa mwena wa gũthini agĩgĩĩta Jakini, na kĩa mwena wa gathigathini agĩgĩĩta Boazu.
He put up the pillars in front of the Temple, one on the right side and one on the left, naming the one on the right Jachin and that on the left Boaz.
