1 Wa 6
1 Alò, li te vin rive nan kat-san-katreven ane apre fis Israël yo te sòti nan peyi Égypte la, nan katriyèm ane règn Salomon sou Israël la, nan mwa Ziv la, sa se dezyèm mwa a, ke li te kòmanse bati lakay SENYÈ a.
And it came to pass in the four hundred and eightieth year after the children of Israel were come out of the land of Egypt, in the fourth year of Solomon’s reign over Israel, in the month Ziv, which is the second month, that he began to build the house of Jehovah.
2 Selon kay ke Salomon te bati pou SENYÈ a, longè li te swasant koude, lajè li te ven koude e wotè li, trant koude.
And the house which king Solomon built for Jehovah, the length thereof was threescore cubits, and the breadth thereof twenty [cubits], and the height thereof thirty cubits.
3 Galeri pa devan antre kay la te ven koude nan longè, ki te koresponn avèk lajè kay la e pwofondè devan kay la te dis koude.
And the porch before the temple of the house, twenty cubits was the length thereof, according to the breadth of the house; [and] ten cubits was the breadth thereof before the house.
4 Osi pou kay la li te fè fenèt avèk ankadreman atizan yo.
And for the house he made windows of fixed lattice-work.
5 Kont mi kay la, li te bati etaj won ki te antoure mi kay la nèt, ni pa devan, avèk sanktyè enteryè a; konsa, li te fè chanm yo toupatou.
And against the wall of the house he built stories round about, against the walls of the house round about, both of the temple and of the oracle; and he made side-chambers round about.
6 Etaj pi ba a te senk koude nan lajè, mitan an te sis koude nan lajè e twazyèm nan te sèt koude nan lajè. Paske pa deyò, li te fè retrè pou travès yo pa fonse antre nan miray kay la.
The nethermost story was five cubits broad, and the middle was six cubits broad, and the third was seven cubits broad; for on the outside he made offsets [in the wall] of the house round about, that [the beams] should not have hold in the walls of the house.
7 Kay la, pandan li t ap bati, te bati avèk wòch ki te taye kote yo te fè min wòch. Pa t gen mato, ni rach, ni okenn zouti an fè ki te konn tande nan kay la pandan li t ap bati.
And the house, when it was in building, was built of stone made ready at the quarry; and there was neither hammer nor axe nor any tool of iron heard in the house, while it was in building.
8 Pòtay chanm akote piba a te sou kote dwat a kay la. Epi yo te konn monte pa eskalye ki te fè won pou rive nan etaj mitan an e soti nan mitan an a nan twazyèm nan.
The door for the middle side-chambers was in the right side of the house: and they went up by winding stairs into the middle [story], and out of the middle into the third.
9 Konsa, li te bati kay la e te fin fè l. Li te kouvri kay la avèk travès ak planch sèd.
So he built the house, and finished it; and he covered the house with beams and planks of cedar.
10 Li te bati anplis etaj ki te kont tout kay la, yo chak nan wotè a senk koude. Yo te tache nan kay la avèk bwa sèd.
And he built the stories against all the house, each five cubits high: and they rested on the house with timber of cedar.
11 Alò, pawòl SENYÈ a te vini a Salomon e te di:
And the word of Jehovah came to Solomon, saying,
12 “Kay sa a ke w ap bati a, si ou va mache nan règleman Mwen yo, egzekite lòd Mwen yo, kenbe tout kòmandman Mwen yo e mache ladan yo, alò, mwen va fin konplete pawòl ke M te pale a David, papa ou a, avèk ou.
Concerning this house which thou art building, if thou wilt walk in my statutes, and execute mine ordinances, and keep all my commandments to walk in them; then will I establish my word with thee, which I spake unto David thy father.
13 Mwen va vin viv pami fis Israël yo e Mwen p ap janm kite pèp mwen an, Israël.”
And I will dwell among the children of Israel, and will not forsake my people Israel.
14 Konsa, Salomon te bati kay la e te fini avèk li.
So Solomon built the house, and finished it.
15 Li te bati mi kay la pa anndan avèk planch sèd. Soti atè jis rive nan plafon an, li te kouvri mi anndan yo avèk bwa e li te kouvri tout atè kay la avèk planch bwa pichpen.
And he built the walls of the house within with boards of cedar: from the floor of the house unto the walls of the ceiling, he covered them on the inside with wood; and he covered the floor of the house with boards of fir.
16 Li te bati ven koude nan kote dèyè kay la avèk planch sèd soti atè a jis rive nan plafon an. Li te bati yo pou li sou anndan kòm yon sanktyè enteryè, menm kote ki pi sen an.
And he built twenty cubits on the hinder part of the house with boards of cedar from the floor unto the walls [of the ceiling]: he built [them] for it within, for an oracle, even for the most holy place.
17 Pa devan sanktyè tanp la te karant koude nan longè.
And the house, that is, the temple before [the oracle], was forty cubits [long].
18 Te gen bwa sèd sou kay la anndan, taye nan fòm a kalbas avèk flè ki louvri nèt. Tout te fèt an sèd. Pa t gen wòch ki te vizib.
And there was cedar on the house within, carved with knops and open flowers: all was cedar; there was no stone seen.
19 Li te prepare yon sanktyè enteryè anndan kay la pou l te kab plase la, lach akò SENYÈ a.
And he prepared an oracle in the midst of the house within, to set there the ark of the covenant of Jehovah.
20 Sanktyè enteryè a te ven koude nan longè, ven koude nan lajè ak ven koude nan wotè. Li te kouvri li nèt avèk lò pi. Li te kouvri lotèl la avèk sèd.
And within the oracle was [a space of] twenty cubits in length, and twenty cubits in breadth, and twenty cubits in the height thereof; and he overlaid it with pure gold: and he covered the altar with cedar.
21 Konsa, Salomon te kouvri anndan kay la avèk lò pi. Li te fè chenn an lò travèse pati devan nan sanktyè enteryè a, e li te kouvri li avèk lò.
So Solomon overlaid the house within with pure gold: and he drew chains of gold across before the oracle; and he overlaid it with gold.
22 Li te kouvri tout kay la avèk lò jiskaske tout kay la te fini. Osi, tout lotèl ki te akote sanktyè enteryè li a te kouvri avèk lò.
And the whole house he overlaid with gold, until all the house was finished: also the whole altar that belonged to the oracle he overlaid with gold.
23 Nan sanktyè enteryè a, li te fè de cheriben ak bwa doliv, yo chak nan dis koude wotè.
And in the oracle he made two cherubim of olive-wood, each ten cubits high.
24 Yon zèl nan cheriben an te senk koude e lòt la te senk koude. Soti nan pwent a yon zèl jis rive nan pwent a lòt zèl la se te dis koude.
And five cubits was the one wing of the cherub, and five cubits the other wing of the cherub: from the uttermost part of the one wing unto the uttermost part of the other were ten cubits.
25 Lòt cheriben an te dis koude. Toude cheriben yo te menm mezi avèk menm fòm.
And the other cherub was ten cubits: both the cherubim were of one measure and one form.
26 Wotè a yon cheriben se te dis koude e lòt cheriben an te menm jan an.
The height of the one cherub was ten cubits, and so was it of the other cherub.
27 Li te plase cheriben yo nan mitan kay enteryè a. Zèl a cheriben yo te lonje tou louvri, jiskaske zèl a youn te touche mi an, e zèl a lòt cheriben an te touche lòt mi an. Konsa, zèl a chak nan yo te touche zèl a lòt la nan mitan kay la.
And he set the cherubim within the inner house; and the wings of the cherubim were stretched forth, so that the wing of the one touched the one wall, and the wing of the other cherub touched the other wall; and their wings touched one another in the midst of the house.
28 Li te kouvri cheriben yo avèk lò.
And he overlaid the cherubim with gold.
29 Epi li te grave tout mi nan kay yo toupatou avèk cheriben yo, pye palmis ak flè louvri yo grave nan sanktyè enteryè ansanm ak eksteryè yo.
And he carved all the walls of the house round about with carved figures of cherubim and palm-trees and open flowers, within and without.
30 Li te kouvri planch atè yo avèk lò, nan sanktyè enteryè avèk eksteryè a.
And the floor of the house he overlaid with gold, within and without.
31 Nan antre sanktyè enteryè a, li te fè pòt avèk bwa doliv, ankadreman chanbrann nan avèk poto pòtay yo an senk fas.
And for the entrance of the oracle he made doors of olive-wood: the lintel [and] door-posts were a fifth part [of the wall].
32 Konsa, li te fè de pòt avèk bwa doliv la e li te grave sou yo cheriben grave yo, pye palmis yo, avèk flè louvri yo. Li te kouvri yo avèk lò. Epi li te gaye lò a sou cheriben yo avèk pye palmis yo.
So [he made] two doors of olive-wood; and he carved upon them carvings of cherubim and palm-trees and open flowers, and overlaid them with gold; and he spread the gold upon the cherubim, and upon the palm-trees.
33 Anplis, li te fè poto yo an kat fas avèk bwa doliv la pou gran antre eksteryè a,
So also made he for the entrance of the temple door-posts of olive-wood, out of a fourth part [of the wall];
34 epi de pòt an bwa siprè; de mwatye a yon pòt ki vire sou pivo e de mwatye sou lòt pòt la te vire sou pivo.
and two doors of fir-wood: the two leaves of the one door were folding, and the two leaves of the other door were folding.
35 Li te grave sou li cheriben yo, pye palmis ak flè louvri yo; epi li te kouvri yo avèk lò aplike nan menm fòs toupatou.
And he carved [thereon] cherubim and palm-trees and open flowers; and he overlaid them with gold fitted upon the graven work.
36 Li te bati galeri enteryè a avèk twa ranje wòch taye ak yon ranje travès fèt an sèd.
And he built the inner court with three courses of hewn stone, and a course of cedar beams.
37 Nan katriyèm ane a, nan mwa Ziv la, fondasyon kay SENYÈ a te fin poze.
In the fourth year was the foundation of the house of Jehovah laid, in the month Ziv.
38 Nan onzyèm ane a, nan mwa Bul la, ki se uityèm mwa a, kay la te fini nan tout pati li e selon plan pa li a. Konsa, li te bati pandan sèt ane.
And in the eleventh year, in the month Bul, which is the eighth month, was the house finished throughout all the parts thereof, and according to all the fashion of it. So was he seven years in building it.
