2 Istwa 4
1 Salomon fè fè tou yon lotèl kwiv kare kare, ki te mezire trant pye lajè sou trant pye longè ak kenz pye wotè.
He made also an altar of brass twenty cubits long, and twenty cubits broad, and ten cubits high.
2 Li fè fè ankò yon gwo basen an kwiv tou won pou mete dlo. Basen lan te mezire kenz pye lajè ak sèt pye edmi wotè. Le ou mezire wonn li, li ba ou karannsenk pye.
Also a molten sea of ten cubits from brim to brim, round in compass: it was five cubits high, and a line of thirty cubits compassed it round about.
3 Sou tout wonn basen lan sou deyò, te gen de ranje pòtre ki sanble pòtre bèf. Yo te an kwiv, yon ti jan anba rebò a. Te gen dis pòtre pou chak pye edmi. Yo te fè yon sèl kò ak basen lan. Yo te koule yo ansanm.
And under it there was the likeness of oxen, and certain engravings on the outside of ten cubits compassed the belly of the sea, as it were with two rows.
4 Basen lan te chita sou do douz towo fèt an kwiv. Fas yo 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. Basen lan menm te chita sou dèyè yo ki te bay sou anndan.
And the oxen were cast: and the sea itself was set upon the twelve oxen, three of which looked toward the north, and other three toward the west: and other three toward the south, and the other three that remained toward the east, and the sea stood upon them: and the hinder parts of the oxen were inward under the sea.
5 Rebò basen lan te gen twa pous epesè. Rebò a te tankou rebò yon tas. Li te fè yon ti vire sou deyò tankou yon flè ki louvri. Basen lan te ka kenbe kenzmil (15.000) galon dlo konsa.
Now the thickness of it was a handbreadth, and the brim of it was like the brim of a cup, or of a crisped lily: and it held three thousand measures.
6 Li fè fè dis lòt basen an kwiv. Li mete senk sou bò dwat ak senk sou bò gòch. Se la yo te lave vyann bèt yo te gen pou boule nèt sou lotèl la. Prèt yo menm te sèvi ak dlo ki te nan gwo basen lan pou lave kò yo.
He made also ten lavers: and he see five on the right hand, and five on the left, to wash in them all such things as they mere to offer for holocausts: but the sea was for the priests to wash in.
7 Salomon fè fè dis gwo lanp sèt branch an lò, dapre jan pou yo te fè yo a. Li mete yo nan Tanp lan, senk sou bò gòch, senk sou bò dwat.
And he made ten golden candlesticks, according to the form which they were commanded to be made by: and he set them in the temple, five on the right hand, and five on the left.
8 Li fè fè dis tab pou mete nan Tanp lan tou, senk sou bò gòch, senk sou bò dwat. Li fè fè san bòl an lò.
Moreover also ten tables: and he set them in the temple, five on the right side, and five on the left. Also a hundred bowls of gold.
9 Li fè yo bati lakou anndan an pou prèt yo ak gwo lakou a ak tout pòtay li yo. Tout pòtay yo te kouvri ak kwiv.
He made also the court of the priests, and a great hall, and doors in the hall, which he covered with brass.
10 Li fè mete gwo basen lan menm sou bò dwat Tanp lan, nan kwen sidès la.
And he set the sea on the right side over against the east toward the south.
11 Iram te fè plato pou sann dife, pèl ak kivèt. Se konsa li te fin fè tout travay Salomon te mande l' fè pou Tanp Seyè a.
And Hiram made caldrons, and fleshhooks, and bowls: and finished all the king’s work in the house of God:
12 Men sa li te fè: de gwo poto won yo, de blòk won yon ti jan pi gwo pou ale sou tèt poto yo, ak desen ti chenn mare yonn ak lòt ki te kouvri de blòk tèt poto yo,
That is to say, the two pillars, and the pommels, and the chapiters, and the network, to cover the chapiters over the pommels.
13 katsan (400) pòtre grenad ki pou ale sou de ran nan desen ki kouvri blòk won ki sou tèt poto yo,
And four hundred pomegranates, and two wreaths of network, so that two rows of pomegranates were joined to each wreath, to cover the pommels, and the chapiters of the pillars.
14 dis kabwa yo, dis basen ki pou ale sou kabwa yo,
He made also bases, and lavers, which he set upon the bases:
15 yon gwo basen tou won pou mete dlo, douz towo pou soutni basen lan,
One sea, and twelve oxen under the sea;
16 plato pou sann yo, pèl yo ak fouchèt yo. Bòs Iram te fè tout bagay sa yo an kwiv poli pou Tanp Seyè a, dapre lòd li te resevwa nan men wa Salomon.
And the caldrons, and fleshhooks, and bowls. All the vessels did Hiram his father make for Solomon in the house of the Lord of the finest brass.
17 Wa a te fè fonn yo nan moul tè nan fon Jouden an, ant lavil Soukòt ak lavil Zaretan.
In the country near the Jordan did the king cast them, in a clay ground between Sochot and Saredatha.
18 Te sitèlman gen anpil bagay fèt an kwiv, Salomon pa t' chache konn pèz yo.
And the multitude of vessels was innumerable, so that the weight of the brass was not known.
19 Salomon fè fè tout mèb an lò yo te bezwen pou Tanp lan: lotèl la, tab pou pen yo mete apa pou Bondye yo,
And Solomon made all the vessels for the house of God, and the golden altar, and the tables, upon which were the leaves of proposition,
20 gwo lanp sèt branch yo ak tèt lanp fèt ak bon lò yo ki fèt pou limen devan pyès yo mete apa nèt pou Seyè a, jan pou yo fè l' la,
The candlesticks also of most pure gold with their lamps to give light before the oracle, according to the manner.
21 flè yo, lanp yo ak pensèt pou gwo lanp sèt branch yo,
And certain flowers, and lamps, and golden tongs: all were made of the finest gold.
22 kouto yo, gode yo, bòl yo, recho pou pote chabon tou limen yo. Tout bagay sa yo te fèt ak bon jan lò. Batan pòt ki bay sou deyò Tanp lan ak batan pòt ki bay sou pyès ki apa nèt pou Seyè a te kouvri nèt ak lò tou.
The vessels also for the perfumes, and the censers, and the bowls, and the mortars, of pure gold. And he graved the doors of the inner temple, that is, for the holy of holies: and the doors of the temple without were of gold. And thus all the work was finished which Solomon made in the house of the Lord.
