1 Wa 7
1 Salomon te bati yon palè pou li menm tou. Li pran trèzan pou l' fini l'.
Solomon, however, took thirteen years to complete the construction of his entire palace.
2 Li bati yon kay yo rele Rakbwa peyi Liban an. Li te gen sansenkant (150) pye longè, swasannkenz pye lajè ak karannsenk pye wotè. Li te gen kat ranje gwo poto bwa sèd. Chak ranje te gen kenz poto ak gwo travès sèd chita sou tèt poto yo.
He built the House of the Forest of Lebanon a hundred cubits long, fifty cubits wide, and thirty cubits high, with four rows of cedar pillars supporting the cedar beams.
3 Plafon an te fèt an planch sèd. Li te kloure sou karannsenk travès ki te chita sou tèt poto yo.
The house was roofed with cedar above the beams that rested on the pillars—forty-five beams, fifteen per row.
4 Nan de miray sou kote yo, te gen twa ranje fennèt. Fennèt yo te bay yonn sou lòt.
There were three rows of high windows facing one another in three tiers.
5 Pòt yo ak fennèt yo te kare kare. Te gen twa ranje fennèt sou chak bò, yonn an fas lòt.
All the doorways had rectangular frames, with the openings facing one another in three tiers.
6 Li bati yon lòt gwo pyès yo rele Chanm Poto yo. Li te gen swasannkenz pye longè, karannsenk pye lajè. Te gen yon lòt ti pyès sou devan l' avèk gwo poto ak dòmant.
Solomon made his colonnade fifty cubits long and thirty cubits wide, with a portico in front of it and a canopy with pillars in front of the portico.
7 Yo bati yon lòt kay yo rele Chanm Fotèy la ou ankò Salon Jijman an. Se la Salomon te konn rann jijman. Miray yo te kouvri ak bwa sèd depi anba rive nan plafon an.
In addition, he built a hall for the throne, the Hall of Justice, where he was to judge. It was paneled with cedar from floor to ceiling.
8 Kay kote Salomon te rete a te nan yon lòt lakou dèyè Salon Jijman an. Li te bati tankou lòt kay yo. Salomon bati yon lòt kay menm jan an tou pou madanm li, pitit fi wa peyi Lejip la.
And the palace where Solomon would live, set further back, was of similar construction. He also made a palace like this hall for Pharaoh’s daughter, whom he had married.
9 Tout kay sa yo te bati ak bèl wòch taye, depi nan fondasyon yo jouk anba twati yo. Wòch yo te pare depi nan min wòch la. Yo te taye sou mezi. Fasad anndan ak fasad deyò wòch yo te taye ak si.
All these buildings were constructed with costly stones, cut to size and trimmed with saws inside and out from the foundation to the eaves, and from the outside to the great courtyard.
10 Fondasyon yo te fèt ak gwo wòch yo te taye nan min wòch la. Genyen ladan yo ki te gen douz pye longè.
The foundations were laid with large, costly stones, some ten cubits long and some eight cubits long.
11 Anwo fondasyon an te gen menm kalite wòch taye sou mezi ak madriye sèd.
Above these were high-grade stones, cut to size, and cedar beams.
12 Gwo lakou palè a te fèmen ak yon miray fèt ak twa ranje wòch pou chak ranje madriye sèd, tankou lakou anndan ak lakou devan Tanp lan.
The great courtyard was surrounded by three rows of dressed stone and a row of trimmed cedar beams, as were the inner courtyard and portico of the house of the LORD.
13 Wa Salomon voye chache yon bòs ki te rele Iram tou. Se te yon moun lavil Tir.
Now King Solomon sent to bring Huram from Tyre.
14 Papa Iram te moun lavil Tir tou. Se te yon bòs fò nan travay kwiv. Manman li te moun nan branch fanmi Neftali a. Se te yon vèv. Iram te yon moun ki te gen anpil ladrès, anpil konesans ak bon konprann pou fè tout kalite bagay an kwiv. Se konsa li te vin kay wa a, li fè tout travay li yo.
He was the son of a widow from the tribe of Naphtali, and his father was a man of Tyre, a craftsman in bronze. Huram had great skill, understanding, and knowledge for every kind of bronze work. So he came to King Solomon and carried out all his work.
15 Iram koule de gwo poto kwiv won yo. Yo chak te gen vennsèt pye wotè. Wonn poto yo te mezire dizwit pye. Li mete yo kanpe devan Tanp lan.
He cast two pillars of bronze, each eighteen cubits high and twelve cubits in circumference.
16 Apre sa, li fè fè blòk kwiv tou pou ale sou tèt poto yo. Yo chak te mezire sèt pye edmi wotè.
He also made two capitals of cast bronze to set on top of the pillars, each capital five cubits high.
17 Li dekore wonn tèt poto yo ak desen ti chenn makònen yonn ak lòt. Te gen sèt desen konsa pou chak tèt poto.
For the capitals on top of the pillars he made a network of lattice, with wreaths of chainwork, seven for each capital.
18 Li mete de ranje grenad an kwiv anwo ak anba desen ti chenn lan sou tout wonn chak tèt poto yo.
Likewise, he made the pillars with two rows of pomegranates around each grating to cover each capital atop the pillars.
19 Tèt poto ki nan gwo lakou devan an te gen fòm yon flè choublak. Yo chak te gen sis pye wotè.
And the capitals atop the pillars in the portico were shaped like lilies, four cubits high.
20 Sou rebò anwo chak tèt poto yo, te gen yon vant resoti ki te anwo desen ti chenn yo, ak desan pòtre grenad sou de ranje ki te fè wonn chak poto yo.
On the capitals of both pillars, just above the rounded projection next to the network, were the two hundred pomegranates in rows encircling each capital.
21 Iram mete poto yo kanpe devan pòt antre Tanp lan, yonn sou bò dwat, yonn sou bò gòch. Li rele sa ki sou bò dwat la Jaken, sa ki sou bò gòch la Boaz.
Thus he set up the pillars at the portico of the temple. The pillar to the south he named Jachin, and the pillar to the north he named Boaz.
22 Sou tèt chak poto te gen yon blòk an fòm yon flè. Se konsa Iram fini ak travay poto yo.
And the tops of the pillars were shaped like lilies. So the work of the pillars was completed.
23 Apre sa, Iram fè yon gwo basen an kwiv tou won. Li te mezire kenz pye lajè anndan anndan ak sèt pye edmi fondè. Wonn li te mezire karannsenk pye.
He also made the Sea of cast metal. It was circular in shape, measuring ten cubits from rim to rim, five cubits in height, and thirty cubits in circumference.
24 Sou tout wonn basen lan, sou deyò, te gen de ranje ti kalbas an kwiv, ti kras anba rebò a. Te gen dis kalbas pou chak pye edmi longè. Yo te fè yon sèl kò ak basen lan, yo te koule yo ansanm lè yo t'ap fè basen lan.
Below the rim, ornamental buds encircled it, ten per cubit all the way around the Sea, cast in two rows as a part of the Sea.
25 Basen lan te chita sou do douz towo bèf an kwiv. Fas towo yo tout bay sou deyò: fas twa bay sou solèy leve, fas twa bay sou bò nò, fas twa bay sou solèy kouche, ak fas twa bay sou bò sid. Dèyè yo te anba basen lan.
The Sea stood on twelve oxen, three facing north, three facing west, three facing south, and three facing east. The Sea rested on them, with all their hindquarters toward the center.
26 Rebò basen lan te gen twa pous epesè. Rebò a te tankou rebò yon tas, li fè yon ti vire sou deyò tankou yon flè. Basen lan te ka kenbe dimil galon konsa.
It was a handbreadth thick, and its rim was fashioned like the brim of a cup, like a lily blossom. It could hold two thousand baths.
27 Iram te fè tou dis kabwa an kwiv. Yo chak te gen sis pye longè, sis pye lajè ak kat pye edmi wotè.
In addition, he made ten movable stands of bronze, each four cubits long, four cubits wide, and three cubits high.
28 Yo te fèt an ti panno kare kare ki te moute nan yon ankadreman.
This was the design of the stands: They had side panels attached to uprights,
29 Sou chak ti panno yo, te gen pòtre lyon, pòtre towo ak pòtre zanj cheriben. Sou rebò yo, anwo ak anba lyon yo ak towo yo, te gen yon ranje flè resoti.
and on the panels between the uprights were lions, oxen, and cherubim. On the uprights was a pedestal above, and below the lions and oxen were wreaths of beveled work.
30 Chak kabwa te gen kat wou an kwiv ak lesye an kwiv tou. Nan kat kwen yo te gen yon zepòlman, antou kat pou kenbe basen lan anplas. Zepòlman yo te dekore ak yon ranje flè chak bò.
Each stand had four bronze wheels with bronze axles and a basin resting on four supports, with wreaths at each side.
31 Anwo chak kabwa te gen yon ankadreman tou won pou basen yo. Ankadreman an te gen dizwit pous lajè anndan anndan. Li te gen desen sou tout kò l'. Pati anwo kabwa a te kare, li pa t' won.
The opening to each stand inside the crown at the top was one cubit deep, with a round opening like the design of a pedestal, a cubit and a half wide. And around its opening were engravings, but the panels of the stands were square, not round.
32 Wou yo te gen vennsenk pous wotè. Yo te anba panno yo. Lesye wou yo te fè yon sèl pyès ak rès kabwa a.
There were four wheels under the panels, and the axles of the wheels were attached to the stand; each wheel was a cubit and a half in diameter.
33 Wou yo te tankou wou cha lagè. Pen yo, jant yo, reyon yo, lesye yo, tout te fèt an kwiv.
The wheels were made like chariot wheels; their axles, rims, spokes, and hubs were all of cast metal.
34 Kat zepòlman ki te nan kwen anba chak kabwa yo te fè yon sèl pyès ak chasi kabwa a.
Each stand had four handles, one for each corner, projecting from the stand.
35 Pati plat anwo kabwa a te dekore ak yon wonn nèf pous wotè ki te fè rebò ouvèti a. Zepòlman ki te nan kwen anwo yo ak panno yo te fè yon sèl pyès ak kabwa a.
At the top of each stand was a circular band half a cubit high. The supports and panels were cast as a unit with the top of the stand.
36 Yo te dekore panno yo ak zepòlman yo ak pòtre zanj cheriben, pòtre lyon ak pòtre pye palmis, tout kote yo te jwenn yon ti espas, ak flè sou tout wonn lan.
He engraved cherubim, lions, and palm trees on the surfaces of the supports and panels, wherever each had space, with wreaths all around.
37 Se konsa Iram te fè dis kabwa yo. Yo tout te fèt menm jan, menm fòm, menm gwosè.
In this way he made the ten stands, each with the same casting, dimensions, and shape.
38 Iram te fè dis basen tou, yonn pou chak kabwa. Chak basen te mezire sis pye lajè. Yo chak te kenbe desan galon konsa.
He also made ten bronze basins, each holding forty baths and measuring four cubits across, one basin for each of the ten stands.
39 Li mete senk kabwa sou bò sid Tanp lan, lòt senk yo sou bò nò. Gwo basen kwiv la menm, li mete l' sou bò dwat Tanp lan nan kwen sidès la.
He set five stands on the south side of the temple and five on the north, and he put the Sea on the south side, at the southeast corner of the temple.
40 Iram te fè plato pou sann, pèl ak kivèt. Se konsa li te fin fè tout travay Salomon te mande l' fè pou Tanp Seyè a.
Additionally, Huram made the pots, shovels, and sprinkling bowls. So Huram finished all the work that he had undertaken for King Solomon in the house of the LORD:
41 Men sa li te fè: de gwo poto won yo, de blòk yon ti jan pi gwo pou ale sou tèt poto yo,
the two pillars; the two bowl-shaped capitals atop the pillars; the two sets of network covering both bowls of the capitals atop the pillars;
42 katsan pòtre grenad ki pou ale sou de ran nan desen ti chenn ki fè wonn tèt poto yo,
the four hundred pomegranates for the two sets of network (two rows of pomegranates for each network covering both the bowl-shaped capitals atop the pillars);
43 dis kabwa yo, dis basen ki pou ale sou kabwa yo,
the ten stands; the ten basins on the stands;
44 yon gwo basen tou won pou dlo, douz towo bèf pou soutni gwo basen lan,
the Sea; the twelve oxen underneath the Sea;
45 plato pou sann yo, pèl yo ak kivèt yo. Tou sa Iram te fè pou Tanp Seyè a te fèt an kwiv poli, dapre lòd li te resevwa nan men Salomon.
and the pots, shovels, and sprinkling bowls. All the articles that Huram made for King Solomon in the house of the LORD were made of burnished bronze.
46 Wa a te fè fonn yo nan moul tè nan fon larivyè Jouden an, ant lavil Soukòt ak lavil Zaretan.
The king had them cast in clay molds in the plain of the Jordan between Succoth and Zarethan.
47 Te sitèlman gen anpil bagay fèt an kwiv, Salomon pa t' chache konnen pèz yo.
Solomon left all these articles unweighed, because there were so many. The weight of the bronze could not be determined.
48 Salomon te fè fè tout mèb yo te bezwen pou Tanp lan an lò: lotèl la, tab pou pen yo mete apa pou Bondye a,
Solomon also made all the furnishings for the house of the LORD: the golden altar; the golden table on which was placed the Bread of the Presence;
49 dis lanp sèt branch pou ranje devan pyès yo mete apa nèt pou Seyè a, senk sou bò dwat, senk sou bò gòch, flè yo, ti lanp yo ak pensèt pou lanp sèt branch yo,
the lampstands of pure gold in front of the inner sanctuary, five on the right side and five on the left; the gold flowers, lamps, and tongs;
50 gode yo, kouto pou netwaye lanp yo, bòl yo, plato pou lansan yo, plato pou pote chabon dife tou limen yo, gon pou pòt pyès ki apa nèt pou Seyè a, ak gon pou lòt pòt tanp lan menm. Tout bagay sa yo te fèt ak bon lò.
the pure gold basins, wick trimmers, sprinkling bowls, ladles, and censers; and the gold hinges for the doors of the inner temple (that is, the Most Holy Place ) as well as for the doors of the main hall of the temple.
51 Lè wa Salomon te fin fè tout travay pou bati Tanp Seyè a, li fè yo pote tout ajan ak tout lò David, papa l', te ofri bay Seyè a ansanm ak tout lòt bagay li menm li te bay, li fè mete yo nan chanm trezò Tanp lan.
So all the work that King Solomon had performed for the house of the LORD was completed. Then Solomon brought in the items his father David had dedicated—the silver, the gold, and the furnishings—and he placed them in the treasuries of the house of the LORD.
