2 Ihe E Mere 4

1 Solomọn wukwara ebe ịchụ aja bronz. Ogologo ya ruru iri mita na ọkara. Obosara ya rukwara iri mita na ọkara; ma ịdị elu ya dị mita ise na ụma atọ.

Also, he made a brass altar of twenty cubits in length, and of twenty cubits in width, and of ten cubits in height,

2 O mekwara Oke osimiri nke ọla awụrụ awụ, nke dị gburugburu nʼụdịdị. Ọtụtụ ya bụ ihe ruru mita abụọ na ụma atọ nʼogologo, dịkwa mita ise na ụma atọ, site nʼotu ọnụ ruo nʼọnụ nke ọzọ. Ọ bụ eriri e ji atụ ihe nke ruru ihe dịka mita iri na anọ ka e ji tụọ ya gburugburu.

as well as a molten sea of ten cubits from brim to brim, round in its circumference. It had five cubits in height, and a line of thirty cubits went around it on all sides.

3 Nʼokpuru ọnụ ya, oyiyi ụmụ oke ehi gbara ya gburugburu, iri dị na mita anọ na ọkara ọbụla. Ehi ndị ahụ dị nʼahịrị abụọ. A wụkọtara ha na Oke osimiri ahụ otu mgbe.

Also, under it there was the likeness of oxen. And certain engravings encircled the cavity of the sea, along ten cubits of the outside, as if in two rows. Now the oxen were molten.

4 E mekwara ka Oke osimiri ahụ guzo nʼelu ehi iri na abụọ. Atọ na-eche ihu nʼakụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ; atọ na-eche ihu nʼọdịda anyanwụ; atọ na-eche ihu nʼakụkụ ndịda, atọ na-eche ihu nʼakụkụ ugwu. Oke osimiri ahụ dịkwasịrị ha nʼelu, ebe azụ ha niile dị nʼime nʼetiti.

And the sea itself was placed upon the twelve oxen, three of which were looking toward the north, and another three toward the west, then another three toward the south, and the three that remained toward the east, having the sea imposed upon them. But the posteriors of the oxen were toward the interior, under the sea.

5 Ịdị arọ ya ha ka otu ọtụtụ ntu-aka dimkpa. E mere ọnụ ya ka ọ dị ka ọnụ iko mmiri, dịkwa ka okoko lili na-awapụta awapụta. Ọ na-erite puku galọọnụ iri na asatọ.

Now its thickness had the measure of the palm of a hand, and its brim was like the lip of a cup, or like the outturned petal of a lily. And it held three thousand measures.

6 A kpụkwara efere ukwu iri nke e ji asacha ihe e wetara maka ịchụ aja nsure ọkụ. Ise nʼime ha dị nʼakụkụ ndịda olulu mmiri ahụ, ise nʼakụkụ ugwu. Ndị nchụaja na-esite naanị na olulu mmiri ahụ ekuru mmiri ha ji asacha ihe.

Also, he made ten basins. And he placed five on the right, and five on the left, so that they might wash in them all the things that they were to offer as holocausts. But the priests were to be washed in the sea.

7 Ọ kpụrụ ihe ịdọba oriọna ọlaedo iri nʼusoro dịka Chineke nyere ya nʼiwu. O debere ha nʼime ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ, ise nʼakụkụ ndịda ụlọ ahụ, ise nʼakụkụ nke ugwu.

Then he also made ten gold lampstands, according to the form by which they had been ordered to be made. And he set them in the temple, five on the right, and five on the left.

8 O mekwara tebul iri dọnye nʼụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ, ise nʼakụkụ ndịda, ise nʼakụkụ ugwu. Ọ kpụkwara otu narị efere ọlaedo maka ịkwọsa mmiri.

Moreover, there were also ten tables. And he placed them in the temple, five on the right, and five on the left. Also, there were one hundred gold bowls.

9 Ọ mere ogige ndị nchụaja, mekwa otu ogige ukwuu, na ibo ọnụ ụzọ maka itinye nʼogige ahụ. O jiri bronz machie ibo ọnụ ụzọ ndị ahụ.

Then too, he made the court of the priests, and a great hall, and doors in the hall, which he covered with brass.

10 Oke osimiri ahụ ka ọ dọbara nʼakụkụ ndịda, na ncherita ihu ọwụwa anyanwụ nke ụlọnsọ ahụ.

Now he placed the sea on the right side, facing the east, toward the south.

11 Huram kpụkwara ite dị iche iche, shọvel niile, na efere ịkwọsa mmiri niile. Nʼikpeazụ, ọ rụchara ọrụ dị nʼụlọnsọ Chineke, nke eze Solomọn tinyere ya nʼaka ịrụ.

Then Hiram made cooking pots and hooks and bowls. And he completed every work of the king in the house of God,

12 Ogidi abụọ ahụ; ihe ọkpụkpụ abụọ dịka efere dị nʼelu ogidi abụọ ahụ; Ihe ọkpụkpụ yiri ụdọ a tụrụ atụ nke e ji chọọ ihe ọkpụkpụ abụọ ahụ dịka efere mma;

that is, the two pillars, and the crossbeams, and the heads, and something like a little net, which would cover the heads above the crossbeams,

13 narị anọ nke mkpụrụ pomegranet a kpụrụ akpụ maka ahịrị ihe abụọ ahụ a kpụrụ akpụ, ya bụ, ahịrị pomegranet abụọ nʼihi otu ihe ọkpụkpụ, iji chọọ ihe ọkpụkpụ ahụ yiri efere dị nʼisi elu ogidi ahụ mma;

and also four hundred pomegranates, and two little nets, so that two rows of pomegranates were joined to each net, which would cover the crossbeams and the heads of the pillars.

14 ihe ndọkwasị na efere ịsa mmiri ha,

He also made bases; and basins that he placed upon the bases;

15 na Oke osimiri ahụ na ehi iri na abụọ ahụ dị ya nʼokpuru,

one sea, and twelve oxen under the sea;

16 na ite niile, shọvel niile, ihe ịgụrụ anụ niile na ihe ngwongwo ndị ọzọ ya na ha so. Ihe niile nke Huram-Abi mere eze Solomọn nʼihi ụlọnsọ Onyenwe anyị, bụ bronz e hichaziri nke ọma.

and cooking pots and hooks and bowls. Hiram, his father, made all the vessels for Solomon, in the house of the Lord, from the purest brass.

17 Ọ bụ nʼala ụrọ, nʼobosara ala Jọdan, nʼetiti Sukọt na Zaretan, ka eze mere ka a nọrọ kpụọ ihe ndị a.

The king cast these in the region near the Jordan, in the clay soil between Succoth and Zeredah.

18 Ihe ndị a niile nke Solomọn mere dị ukwuu nke ukwu; nke bụ na-enweghị ike ịgụkọta ihe ịdị arọ nke bronz ahụ bụ.

Now the multitude of the vessels was innumerable, so much so that the weight of the brass was unknown.

19 Solomọn mekwara ngwongwo niile dị nʼime ụlọnsọ Chineke, ya bụ, ebe ịchụ aja e ji ọlaedo kpụọ, na tebul niile nke a dọkwasịrị achịcha nke iche nʼIhu Onyenwe anyị,

And Solomon made all the vessels for the house of God, and the gold altar, and the tables upon which were the bread of the presence;

20 ihe ịdọkwasị oriọna niile nke ọlaedo a nụchara anụcha, ha na oriọna ha niile, ka ọ na-enwu nʼihu ime ime ebe nsọ, dịka e nyere nʼiwu,

and also, of the purest gold, the lampstands with their lamps, to shine before the oracle, according to the rite;

21 ihe ịchọ mma oyiyi okoko osisi, na oriọna niile na ihe ịgụta ihe niile. E ji ọlaedo a nụchara anụcha kpụọ ha niile.

and certain flowers, and lamps, and gold tongs. All these were made from the purest gold.

22 Ọ kpụkwara ihe ịkpakepụ ọkụ niile nke ọlaedo a nụchara anụcha, na efere ịkwọsa mmiri niile, na ngaji niile, na ihe ịgụ ọkụ niile, na ibo ọlaedo niile nke ụlọnsọ, ya bụ, ibo ọnụ ụzọ ime ime niile nke dịrị Ebe ahụ Kachasị Nsọ, na ibo ndị dị nʼọnụ ụlọ ezumezu.

Also, the vessels for the perfumes, and the censers, and the bowls, and the little mortars were from the purest gold. And he engraved the doors of the inner temple, that is, for the Holy of Holies. And the doors of the outer temple were of gold. And so, every work was completed that Solomon made in the house of the Lord.
