II Oihanaalii 3
1 HOOMAKA iho la o Solomona e kapili i ka hale o Iehova ma Ierusalema, ma ka mauna o Moria, ma kahi i ikeia mai ai oia e Davida, kona makuakane, ma kahi a Davida i hoomakaukau ai i kahihehi palaoa o Orenana ka Iebusa.
Then Solomon began building the Temple of the Lord in Jerusalem on Mount Moriah, where the Lord appeared to his father David. This was the place that David had provided—the former threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
2 Hoomaka iho la oia e kapili hale, i ka makahiki eha o kona noho alii ana, i ka malama elua, a i ka la elua o ia malama.
Solomon began construction on the second day of the second month in his fourth year as king.
3 Eia ka hookumu ana o ka hale o ke Akua a Solomona i kukulu ai: o na kubita o ka loa e like me ke ana mua ana he kanaono kubita, a o ka laula he iwakalua kubita.
The size of the foundation Solomon laid for the Temple of God was sixty cubits long and twenty cubits wide, (according to the old cubit measurement).
4 A o ka loa o ka lanai ma ke ala, ua like ia me ka laula o ka hale he iwakalua kubita, a o kona kiekie hookahi haneri kubita a me ka iwakalua, a uhi iho la oia ia mea maloko me ke gula maemae.
The front porch that ran across the width of the Temple was twenty cubits long and twenty cubits high. He covered the inside of the porch with pure gold.
5 A o ka hale nui, kapili no ia i ka laau paina, a uhi iho la i ke gula maikai, hoonoho iho la maluna olaila i na lala loulu i kalaiia a me na kaula.
He paneled the main room with cypress overlaid with fine gold, with images of palm trees and chains.
6 A hoonaniia ka hale i na pohaku maikai a me ke gula, i ke gula o Parevaima.
He decorated the Temple with beautiful gems, and with gold he imported from Parvaim.
7 A uhi no hoi ia i ka hale, i na kaola, a me na paepae, a me na pa ona, a me kona mau puka i ke gula, a kalai oia i na kerubima maluna o na pa.
He covered the beams, thresholds, walls, and doors of the Temple with gold, and he carved cherubim on the walls.
8 Hana iho la oia i ka hale hoano loa, o ka loa ua like pu ia me ka laula o ka hale, he iwakalua kubita, a o kona laula he iwakalua kubita, a uhi iho la oia ia mea i ke gula maemae eono haneri talena.
He made the room of the Most Holy Place to correspond with the width of the Temple—twenty cubits long and twenty cubits wide. He covered the interior with six hundred talents of fine gold.
9 A o na kui ma ke kaupaona ana he kanalima sekela gula; a uhi iho la oia i na keena maluna i ke gula.
The weight of the nails was one shekel for every fifty shekels of gold.
10 A iloko o ka hale hoano loa, hana iho la oia i na kerubima elua, mamuli o ka hana kalai kii, a uhi iho la oia ia mau mea i ke gula.
He made for the Most Holy Place two wooden cherubim covered with gold.
11 O na eheu o na kerubima he iwakalua kubita ka loa; o ke eheu o kekahi elima kubita e pa ana ma ka paia o ka hale; a o ka eheu o kekahi elima no kubita e pa ana i ka eheu o kela kerubima.
The wingspan of the cherubim together was twenty cubits. One wing of the first cherub was five cubits long and touched one Temple wall, while its other wing, also five cubits long, and touched the second cherub.
12 O ka eheu o kekahi kerubima elima no kubita e pa ana ma ka paia o ka hale; a o ka eheu o kekahi elima no kubita e pa ana i ka eheu o kela kerubima.
In similar fashion, one wing of the second cherub was five cubits long and touched one Temple wall, while its other wing, also five cubits long, and touched the first cherub.
13 O na eheu o keia mau kerubima i hoholaia he iwakalua kubita; a ku laua ma ko laua mau wawae, a maloko ko laua alo.
So the wingspan of these cherubim together was twenty cubits. They stood on their feet, facing the main room.
14 Hana iho la ia i ka paku lole uli, a me ka ulaula ahiahia, a me ka ulaula maoli, a me ka lole pulupulu maikai, a hana iho la oia i na kerubima maluna ona.
He made the veil of blue, purple, and crimson embroidery on fine linen, with images of cherubim on it.
15 Hana iho la oia no ke alo o ka hale i na kia elua he kanakolukumamalima kubita ka loa, a o ka papale maluna o kona poo elima kubita.
He made two columns for the front of the Temple, thirty-five cubits, each having a capital five cubits high.
16 Hana iho la no hoi oia i na kaula iloko o kahi laa, a kau maluna o na poo o na kia, a hana no hoi ia i na pomegerane hookahi haneri, a kau aku maluna o ua mau kaula la.
He made chains like in the Most Holy Place and he placed them on top of the columns. He also made one hundred ornamental pomegranates and attached them to each chain.
17 Kukulu iho la oia i na kia ma ke alo o ka luakini ma ka aoao akau kekahi, a ma ka aoao hema kekahi; a kapa aku la ia i ka inoa o ka mea ma ka akau o Iakina, a i ka inoa o ka mea ma ka hema o Boaza.
He set up the columns in front of the Temple, one on the south, and one on the north. The column on the south he named Jachin, and the column on the north he named Boaz.
