1 Alò, Salomon te kòmanse bati lakay SENYÈ a Jérusalem sou Mòn Moriah, kote SENYÈ a te parèt a papa li a, David, nan plas ke David te prepare sou glasi vannen ki te pou Ornan, Jebizyen an.
Then Solomon began to build the house of Jehovah at Jerusalem on mount Moriah, where [Jehovah] appeared unto David his father, which he made ready in the place that David had appointed, in the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
2 Li te kòmanse bati nan dezyèm jou, nan dezyèm mwa nan katriyèm ane règn pa li a.
And he began to build in the second [day] of the second month, in the fourth year of his reign.
3 Alò, sila yo se fondasyon ke Salomon te poze pou konstriksyon kay Bondye a. Longè a an koude, selon mezi ansyen an te swasant koude e lajè a te ven koude.
Now these are the foundations which Solomon laid for the building of the house of God. The length by cubits after the first measure was threescore cubits, and the breadth twenty cubits.
4 Galri ki te devan kay la te menm longè avèk lajè kay la, ven koude e wotè a san-ven. Pa anndan li te kouvri kay la avèk yon kouch lò pi.
And the porch that was before [the house], the length of it, according to the breadth of the house, was twenty cubits, and the height a hundred and twenty; and he overlaid it within with pure gold.
5 Li te kouvri gran chanm nan avèk bwa sipre. Li te fè kouvri li ak lò fen e te dekore li avèk pye palmis avèk chenn.
And the greater house he ceiled with fir-wood, which he overlaid with fine gold, and wrought thereon palm-trees and chains.
6 Anplis, li te dekore kay la avèk pyè presye. Lò a te lò sòti Parvaïm.
And he garnished the house with precious stones for beauty: and the gold was gold of Parvaim.
7 Anplis, li te kouvri kay la avèk yon kouch lò—travès yo, chanbrann yo, mi li yo, avèk pòtay li yo, epi li te grave cheriben yo sou mi yo.
He overlaid also the house, the beams, the thresholds, and the walls thereof, and the doors thereof, with gold; and graved cherubim on the walls.
8 Alò, li te fè chanm ki pi sen pase tout lòt yo. Longè li ki te travèse lajè kay la, te ven koude, e lajè li te ven koude. Li te kouvri li avèk lò fen, ki te rive jis nan sis-san talan lò.
And he made the most holy house: the length thereof, according to the breadth of the house, was twenty cubits, and the breadth thereof twenty cubits; and he overlaid it with fine gold, amounting to six hundred talents.
9 Pwa a klou yo te senkant sik an lò. Anplis, li te kouvri chanm anlè yo avèk lò.
And the weight of the nails was fifty shekels of gold. And he overlaid the upper chambers with gold.
10 Li te fè de cheriben skilpte nan chanm ki sen pase tout lòt yo a e li te kouvri yo avèk lò.
And in the most holy house he made two cherubim of image work; and they overlaid them with gold.
11 Distans zèl ouvri pou de cheriben yo te ven koude. Zèl a youn te fè senk koude pou touche mi kay la e lòt zèl la senk koude te touche pwent zèl a lòt cheriben an.
And the wings of the cherubim were twenty cubits long: the wing of the one [cherub] was five cubits, reaching to the wall of the house; and the other wing was [likewise] five cubits, reaching to the wing of the other cherub.
12 Zèl a lòt cheriben an, a senk koude, te touche mi kay la, epi lòt zèl senk koude a te tache a zèl premye cheriben an.
And the wing of the other cherub was five cubits, reaching to the wall of the house; and the other wing was five cubits [also], joining to the wing of the other cherub.
13 Zèl a cheriben sila yo te lonje pou ven koude, e yo te kanpe sou pye yo avèk fas yo vè gran chanm nan.
The wings of these cherubim spread themselves forth twenty cubits: and they stood on their feet, and their faces were toward the house.
14 Li te fè vwal la avèk len vyolèt, mov, wouj, e li te fè desen cheriben yo sou li.
And he made the veil of blue, and purple, and crimson, and fine linen, and wrought cherubim thereon.
15 Anplis, li te fè de pilye pou devan kay la, trann-senk koude nan wotè e tèt anlè a sou chak te senk koude.
Also he made before the house two pillars of thirty and five cubits high, and the capital that was on the top of each of them was five cubits.
16 Li te fè chenn nan sanktyè enteryè a. Li te plase yo sou tèt pilye yo. Li te fè san grenad e te mete yo sou chenn yo.
And he made chains in the oracle, and put [them] on the tops of the pillars; and he made a hundred pomegranates, and put them on the chains.
17 Li te leve pilye yo pa devan tanp lan, youn adwat e lòt la agoch, epi li te rele sila adwat la Jakin e sila agoch la Boaz.
And he set up the pillars before the temple, one on the right hand, and the other on the left; and called the name of that on the right hand Jachin, and the name of that on the left Boaz.
