1 Wa 7
1 Salomon te bati yon palè pou li menm tou. Li pran trèzan pou l' fini l'.
Now Solomon built his own house for thirteen years, and he brought it to perfection.
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.
And he built the house from the forest of Lebanon: one hundred cubits in length, and fifty cubits in width, and thirty cubits in height, with four walkways between columns of cedar. For he had hewn the cedar trees into columns.
3 Plafon an te fèt an planch sèd. Li te kloure sou karannsenk travès ki te chita sou tèt poto yo.
And he clothed the entire vaulted room with panels of cedar. And it was supported by forty-five columns. Now one row held fifteen columns,
4 Nan de miray sou kote yo, te gen twa ranje fennèt. Fennèt yo te bay yonn sou lòt.
each positioned opposite another,
5 Pòt yo ak fennèt yo te kare kare. Te gen twa ranje fennèt sou chak bò, yonn an fas lòt.
and looking toward one another, with equal spacing between the columns. And above the columns there were square beams equal in all things.
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.
And he made a portico of columns, fifty cubits in length and thirty cubits in width, and another portico, facing the greater portico, with columns and with crossbeams upon the columns.
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.
He also made the portico of the throne, in which is the tribunal. And he overlaid it with cedar wood, from the floor even to the summit.
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 in the midst of the portico, there was a small house, where he would sit in judgment, similar in workmanship. He also made a house for the daughter of Pharaoh (whom Solomon had taken as wife) of the same work and type as this portico.
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 was of precious stones, which had been sawed by a particular standard and measure, as much within as without, from the foundation even to the summit of the walls, and outside even to the great atrium.
10 Fondasyon yo te fèt ak gwo wòch yo te taye nan min wòch la. Genyen ladan yo ki te gen douz pye longè.
Now the foundations were of precious stones: great stones of eight or ten cubits.
11 Anwo fondasyon an te gen menm kalite wòch taye sou mezi ak madriye sèd.
And above these, there were precious stones, of equal measure, which had been cut in a manner similar to boards of cedar.
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.
And the great atrium was round, with three rows of cut stones and one row of cut cedar, even as it also was in the interior atrium of the house of the Lord, and in the portico of the house.
13 Wa Salomon voye chache yon bòs ki te rele Iram tou. Se te yon moun lavil Tir.
And king Solomon sent and brought Hiram of 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.
the son of a widowed woman, from the tribe of Naphtali, whose father was a Tyrian, an artisan in brass, and full of wisdom, and understanding, and knowledge in order to form every work of brass. And when he had gone to king Solomon, he wrought 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.
And he cast two columns of brass. Each column was eighteen cubits in height, and a line of twelve cubits encompassed both columns.
16 Apre sa, li fè fè blòk kwiv tou pou ale sou tèt poto yo. Yo chak te mezire sèt pye edmi wotè.
Also, he made two heads of molten brass, which would be set upon the tops of the columns: one head was five cubits in height, and the other head was five cubits in height.
17 Li dekore wonn tèt poto yo ak desen ti chenn makònen yonn ak lòt. Te gen sèt desen konsa pou chak tèt poto.
And there was something like a network of chains, woven together in a wonderful manner. Both heads of the columns were cast, and seven rows of little nets traversed one head, and seven little nets were on the other head.
18 Li mete de ranje grenad an kwiv anwo ak anba desen ti chenn lan sou tout wonn chak tèt poto yo.
And he finished the columns with two rows all around each network, so that these covered the heads, which were at the top, with pomegranates. And he did in like manner to the second head.
19 Tèt poto ki nan gwo lakou devan an te gen fòm yon flè choublak. Yo chak te gen sis pye wotè.
Now the heads that were at the top of the columns, in the portico of four cubits, had been fabricated with a work of lilies.
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.
And again, there were other heads at the tops of the columns above, in accord with the measure of the column opposite the netting. And there were two hundred of the pomegranates, in rows around the second head.
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.
And he stationed the two columns in the portico of the temple. And when he had stationed the column on the right, he called its name Jachin. Similarly, he erected the second column, and he called its name Boaz.
22 Sou tèt chak poto te gen yon blòk an fòm yon flè. Se konsa Iram fini ak travay poto yo.
And above the tops of the columns, he set a work in the manner of lilies. And the work of the columns was perfected.
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 a molten sea, of ten cubits from brim to brim, rounded on all sides. Its height was five cubits, and a thin rope of thirty cubits wrapped it all around.
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.
And a sculpted work under the brim encircled it for ten cubits going around the sea. There were two rows cast of striated sculptures.
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.
And it was standing upon twelve oxen, of which three were looking toward the north, and three toward the west, and three toward the south, and three toward the east. And the sea above was over them. And their posteriors were entirely hidden within.
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.
And the basin was the thickness of three twelfths. And its brim was like the brim of a chalice, or like the outturned petal of a lily. It contained 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.
And he made ten bases of brass: each base was four cubits in length, and four cubits in width, and three cubits in height.
28 Yo te fèt an ti panno kare kare ki te moute nan yon ankadreman.
And the work itself of the bases was engraved; and there were sculptures between the junctures.
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 between the little crowns and the edges, there were lions, and oxen, and cherubim; and similarly in the junctures above. And under the lions and oxen were something like bands of brass hanging down.
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.
And each base had four wheels, with axels of brass. And at the four sides were something like little arms, under the cast basin, facing away from one another.
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.
Also, the mouth of the interior of the basin was at the top of the head. And what was visible outside was of one cubit all around, and altogether it had one cubit and a half. Now at the corners of the columns were diverse engravings. And the spaces between the columns 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.
And the four wheels, which were at the four corners of the base, were joined to one another under the base. The height of one wheel held one cubit and a half.
33 Wou yo te tankou wou cha lagè. Pen yo, jant yo, reyon yo, lesye yo, tout te fèt an kwiv.
Now these were the kind of wheels such as are often made for a chariot. And their axels, and spokes, and tires, and centers were all cast.
34 Kat zepòlman ki te nan kwen anba chak kabwa yo te fè yon sèl pyès ak chasi kabwa a.
And the four little arms, which were at each corner of a base, were cast and joined together as part of the base itself.
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.
And at the summit of the base, there was a round stand of one half cubit, fabricated so that the basin could be placed upon it, having its engravings, and various sculptures of its own.
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 also engraved those plates, which were of brass. And at the corners were cherubim, and lions, and palm trees, standing out, as if in the likeness of a man, so that they seemed not to be engraved, but placed adjacent on all sides.
37 Se konsa Iram te fè dis kabwa yo. Yo tout te fèt menm jan, menm fòm, menm gwosè.
In this manner, he made ten bases with the same casting and measure, and very similar engravings.
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 hand basins of brass. One hand basin contained four baths, and was of four cubits. And each basin he set upon a base, which is ten bases.
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.
And he stationed the ten bases, five to the right side of the temple, and five to the left. And the sea he placed to the right side of the temple, opposite the east, toward the south.
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.
Then Hiram made cooking pots, and trays, and small hooks. And he completed all the work of king Solomon in the temple 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 columns, and the two cords of the heads over the tops of the columns, and the two networks which covered the two cords that were above the tops of the columns;
42 katsan pòtre grenad ki pou ale sou de ran nan desen ti chenn ki fè wonn tèt poto yo,
and the four hundred pomegranates for the two networks, two turnings of pomegranates for each network, in order to cover the cords of the heads, which were above the tops of the columns;
43 dis kabwa yo, dis basen ki pou ale sou kabwa yo,
and the ten bases, and the ten basins on the bases;
44 yon gwo basen tou won pou dlo, douz towo bèf pou soutni gwo basen lan,
and the one sea, and the twelve oxen under 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 cooking pots, and the trays, and the small hooks. All of the items that Hiram made for king Solomon, for the house of the Lord, were of golden brass.
46 Wa a te fè fonn yo nan moul tè nan fon larivyè Jouden an, ant lavil Soukòt ak lavil Zaretan.
In the open regions near the Jordan, the king cast these, in the clay soil between Succoth and Zarethan.
47 Te sitèlman gen anpil bagay fèt an kwiv, Salomon pa t' chache konnen pèz yo.
And Solomon positioned all the items. But because of its exceedingly great amount, the brass was not weighed.
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,
And Solomon made all the furniture for the house of the Lord: the altar of gold, and the table of gold, upon which the bread of the presence would be placed;
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,
and the gold lampstands, five to the right, and five to the left, opposite the oracle, of pure gold; and likenesses of lily blossoms, with lamps above them, of gold; and gold 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.
and water pots, and little forks, and bowls, and little mortars, and censers, of the purest gold; and the hinges of the doors, for the interior house of the Holy of Holies and for the doors of the house of the temple, which were of gold.
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.
And Solomon perfected all the work that he was doing in the house of the Lord. And he brought in the things that his father David had sanctified: the silver, and the gold, and the vessels. And he stored these in the treasuries of the house of the Lord.
