2 Ihe E Mere 3
1 Mgbe ahụ, Solomọn malitere iwu ụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị. Ọ bụ nʼugwu Mọrịa, nke dị na Jerusalem, ka e wukwasịrị ya, nʼebe ahụ Onyenwe anyị mere ka Devid bụ nna ya hụ ya anya. Ọ bụ nʼala ebe ịzọcha ọka Arauna, onye Jebus, ebe ahụ Devid họpụtara.
And Solomon began to build the house of the Lord in Jerusalem in the mount of Amoria, where the Lord appeared to his father David, in the place which David had prepared in the threshing floor of Orna the Jebusite.
2 O bidoro iwu ụlọ ahụ nʼabalị nke abụọ, nke ọnwa abụọ, nʼafọ nke anọ, nke ọchịchị eze ya.
And he began to build in the second month, in the fourth year of his reign.
3 Ntọala Solomọn tọrọ maka iwu ụlọnsọ Chineke dị iri mita abụọ na asaa nʼogologo, mita itoolu nʼobosara. (Nke a bụ ma ejiri ihe ọtụtụ ochie).
And thus Solomon began to build the house of God: the length in cubits—even the first measurement from end to end, was sixty cubits, and the breadth twenty cubits.
4 Ịdị ogologo mpụta ọnụ ụlọ nke ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ dị mita itoolu, dịka ịdị ogologo obosara ụlọ nso ahụ nʼonwe ya. Ịdị elu ya dịkwa mita itoolu. O jikwa ọlaedo a nụchara anụcha machie ime ya.
And the portico in front of the house, its length in front of the breadth of the house [was] twenty cubits, and its height a hundred and twenty cubits: and he gilded it within with pure gold.
5 O ji osisi junipa machie ahụ ime ụlọ ezumezu ahụ, jirikwa ọlaedo a nụchara anụcha techie osisi ndị ahụ niile. Emesịa, e sere oyiyi nkwụ dị iche iche, na oyiyi ụdọ igwe nʼahụ ụlọ ahụ iji chọọ ya mma.
And he lined the great house with cedar wood, and gilded it with pure gold, and carved upon it palm-trees and chains.
6 O ji nkume dị oke ọnụahịa dị iche iche chọọ ime ụlọnsọ ahụ mma, ya na ọlaedo nke e si na Pavaim bute.
And he garnished the house with precious stones for beauty; and he gilded it with gold of the gold from Pharuim.
7 Ogidi osisi silin niile, na ibo ọnụ ụzọ niile, na aja ụlọ niile, na ọnụ ụzọ niile dị nʼụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ ka o ji ọlaedo techie. Ọ gbukwara egbugbu oyiyi cherubim na mgbidi ya niile.
And he gilded the house, and its [inner] walls, and the door-posts, and the roofs, and the doors with gold; and he carved cherubs on the walls.
8 O wuru Ebe ahụ Kachasị Nsọ; nke ogologo ọnụ ụlọ ya dị mita iri, otu a kwa, obosara ya dị mita iri. O ji ọlaedo dị ezi mma nke ọnụahịa ya ruru narị talenti isii techie ahụ ime ụlọ ahụ niile.
And he built the holy of holies, its length was according to the front [of the other house], the breadth of the house [was] twenty cubits, and the length twenty cubits: and he gilded [it] with pure gold for cherubs, to [the amount of] six hundred talents.
9 Ịdị arọ ọlaedo e ji kpụọ ǹtu e ji wuo ya dị iri shekel ise. E jikwa ọlaedo techie akụkụ elu elu nke ime ọnụ ụlọ a.
And the weight of the nails, [even] the weight of each was fifty shekels of gold: and he gilded the upper chamber with gold.
10 Solomọn tinyere oyiyi mmụọ ozi cherubim abụọ ọ kpụrụ nʼime Ebe ahụ Kachasị Nsọ, werekwa ọlaedo machie ha.
And he made two cherubs in the most holy house, wood-work, and he gilded them with gold.
11 Ịdị ogologo nku cherubim ndị a ruru mita iri. Ịdị ogologo otu nku cherub nke mbụ ruru mita abụọ na ọkara. Ọnụ nku a na-emetụ ahụ ime ụlọ nke ụlọnsọ ukwu, ma ọnụ ọnụ nku nke ọzọ, nke ịdị ogologo ya ruru mita abụọ nʼọkara, na-emetụ ọnụ otu nku cherub nke ọzọ.
And the wings of the cherubs were twenty cubits in length: and one wing of five cubits touched the wall of the house: and the other wing of five cubits touched the wing of the other cherub.
12 Nʼotu aka ahụ, otu nku cherub nke abụọ ruru mita abụọ na ọkara nʼogologo. Ọnụ nku ya na-emetụ akụkụ nke ọzọ nke ahụ ime ụlọnsọ ukwu, ma nku ya nke ọzọ, nke rukwara mita abụọ na ọkara nʼogologo, na-emetụ ọnụ ọnụ otu nku cherub nke mbụ.
13 Nku cherubim ndị a gbasapụrụ ruo mita iri nʼogologo. Ha guzo ọtọ nʼụkwụ ha, na-eche ihu nʼọnụ ụlọ ezumezu ahụ.
And the wings of these cherubs expanded were of the length of twenty cubits: and they stood upon their feet, and their faces were toward the house.
14 O ji akwa na-acha anụnụ anụnụ, na uhie uhie, na odo odo, na ezi akwa ọcha, mee akwa mgbochi, nke a kpanyekwara oyiyi cherubim nʼime ya.
And he made the vail of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen, and wove cherubs in it.
15 O wuru ogidi abụọ dị nʼihu ụlọnsọ ahụ, nke ịdị elu ya ruru mita iri na asaa. Ọ kpụkwara ihe a dokwasịrị nʼelu ogidi ndị a, nke ịdị elu ha dị mita abụọ na ọkara.
Also he made in front of the house two pillars, in height thirty-five cubits, and their chapters of five cubits.
16 Ọ kpụkwara ihe yiri ụdọ igwe a tụrụ atụ, nke e kokwasịrị nʼelu ogidi abụọ ndị ahụ. Kpụọkwa narị mkpụrụ pomegranet, nke a ganyekọtara ya na ụdọ igwe ahụ.
And he made chains, [as] in the oracle, and put [them] on the heads of the pillars; and he made a hundred pomegranates, and put them on the chains.
17 O guzobere ogidi abụọ ndị ahụ nʼihu ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ, otu nʼakụkụ ugwu nke ọzọ nʼakụkụ ndịda. Ogidi nke dị na ndịda ka ọ kpọrọ Jakin, ma nke dị nʼugwu ka ọ kpọrọ Boaz.
And he set up the pillars in front of the temple, one on the right hand and the other on the left: and he called the name of the one on the right hand 'Stability,' and the name of the one on the left 'Strength.'
