1 Raja-raja 7
1 Salomo membangun juga istana untuk dirinya. Pembangunan istana itu makan waktu tiga belas tahun.
Solomon was thirteen years building a house for himself till it was complete.
2 Di istana itu Salomo membuat ruangan yang disebut "Balai Hutan Libanon". Ukurannya: panjang 44 meter, lebar 22 meter, dan tinggi 13,5 meter. Balai itu mempunyai tiga jajar tiang dari kayu cemara Libanon; tiap jajar terdiri dari lima belas tiang dan di atasnya dipasang kasau-kasau dari kayu cemara Libanon. Langit-langitnya terbuat dari kayu yang sama dan menutupi kasau-kasau itu.
And he made the house of the Woods of Lebanon, which was a hundred cubits long and fifty cubits wide and thirty cubits high, resting on four lines of cedar-wood pillars with cedar-wood supports on the pillars.
And it was covered with cedar over the forty-five supports which were on the pillars, fifteen in a line.
4 Pada dinding kiri dan kanan balai itu terdapat jendela-jendela: tiga deretan pada dinding yang satu berhadapan dengan tiga deretan pada dinding yang lainnya. Bingkai pintu-pintu dan jendela-jendelanya berbentuk empat persegi panjang.
There were three lines of window-frames, window facing window in every line.
And all the doors and windows had square frames, with the windows facing one another in three lines.
6 Salomo juga membangun "Balai Pilar". Panjang balai itu 22 meter dan lebarnya 13,5 meter. Di depan balai itu ada serambi yang berpilar dan bertangga.
And he made a covered room of pillars, fifty cubits long and thirty cubits wide, and ... with steps before it.
7 Balai yang lain ialah "Balai Tahta" yang disebut juga Balai Pengadilan. Balai ini dari lantai sampai ke kasau-kasaunya dilapisi dengan kayu cemara Libanon. Di balai inilah Salomo memutuskan perkara-perkara pengadilan.
Then he made a covered room for his high seat when he gave decisions; this was the covered room of judging; it was covered with cedar-wood from floor to roof.
8 Tempat tinggal Salomo dibuat seperti gedung-gedung lainnya dan terdapat di pelataran lain di belakang Balai Pengadilan. Untuk istrinya, yaitu putri raja Mesir, Salomo membangun juga gedung yang serupa.
And the house for his living-place, the other open square in the covered room, was made in the same way. And then he made a house like it for Pharaoh's daughter, whom Solomon had taken as his wife.
9 Semua bangunan itu, termasuk pelataran besarnya, dari pondasinya sampai ke atapnya, dibuat dari batu yang bagus-bagus. Batu-batu itu disiapkan di tambang batu, dan dipotong menurut ukuran; bagian dalam dan bagian luarnya diratakan dengan gergaji.
All these buildings were made, inside and out, from base to crowning stone, and outside to the great walled square, of highly priced stone, cut to different sizes with cutting-instruments.
10 Pondasi gedung-gedung itu dibuat dari batu-batu besar yang berharga. Batu-batu itu ada yang 3,5 meter panjangnya, ada pula yang empat meter.
And the base was of great masses of highly priced stone, some ten cubits and some eight cubits square.
11 Di atasnya dipasang batu-batu lain yang berharga dan dipotong menurut ukuran, lalu ditutup dengan kayu cemara Libanon.
Overhead were highly priced stones cut to measure, and cedar-wood.
12 Tembok pelataran istana dan tembok pelataran dalam di Rumah TUHAN serta tembok balai di bagian depan Rumah TUHAN, masing-masing terdiri dari satu lapisan kayu cemara Libanon di atas tiap tiga lapisan batu.
The great outer square all round was walled with three lines of squared stones and a line of cedar-wood boards, round about the open square inside the house of the Lord and the covered room of the king's house.
13 Di kota Tirus ada seorang laki-laki bernama Huram. Ia benar-benar ahli dan banyak berpengalaman dalam membuat segala macam barang perunggu. Almarhum ayahnya adalah orang Tirus dan juga ahli dalam barang-barang perunggu. Ibunya dari suku Naftali. Raja Salomo telah menyuruh orang pergi menjemput Huram untuk datang dan mengepalai seluruh pekerjaan pembuatan barang perunggu. Maka datanglah Huram dan mengerjakan apa yang diminta oleh Salomo.
Then King Solomon sent and got Hiram from Tyre.
He was the son of a widow of the tribe of Naphtali, and his father was a man of Tyre, a worker in brass; he was full of wisdom and knowledge and an expert worker in brass. He came to King Solomon and did all his work for him.
15 Huram membuat dua tiang perunggu masing-masing tingginya 8 meter, lingkarnya 5,3 meter, dan tebal perunggunya 7,4 sentimeter. Tiang-tiang itu kosong di dalamnya.
He it was who made the two brass pillars; the first pillar was eighteen cubits high, and a line of twelve cubits went round it; and the second was the same.
16 Untuk tiang-tiang itu ia membuat dua kepala tiang dari perunggu, masing-masing tingginya 2,2 meter
And he made the two crowns to be put on the tops of the pillars, of brass made soft in the fire; the crowns were five cubits high.
17 berbentuk bunga bakung setinggi 1,8 meter. Setiap kepala tiang itu dihias dengan dua jajar buah delima dari perunggu. Semuanya ada dua ratus buah delima pada setiap kepala tiang. Lalu Huram membuat anyaman rantai dari perunggu dan menaruhnya di atas tiang-tiang itu. Ada tujuh anyaman rantai di atas setiap tiang, dan di atas anyaman rantai itu pula ada sebuah alas bundar. Di atas alas bundar inilah
There were nets of open-work for the crowns on the tops of the pillars, a net of open-work for one and a net of open-work for the other.
And he made ornaments of apples; and two lines of apples all round over the network, covering the crowns of the pillars, the two crowns in the same way.
The crowns on the tops of the pillars were ornamented with a design of flowers, and were four cubits across.
And there were crowns on the two pillars near the round part by the network, and there were two hundred apples in lines round every crown.
21 kepala-kepala tiang yang berbentuk bunga bakung itu dipasang pada tiang-tiang itu. Tiang-tiang itu ditempatkan di depan pintu masuk ke Rumah TUHAN--satu di sebelah selatan, yang lainnya di sebelah utara. Yang di sebelah selatan dinamakan Yakhin, dan yang di sebelah utara dinamakan Boas. Demikianlah Huram menyelesaikan pembuatan tiang-tiang itu.
He put up the pillars at the doorway of the Temple, naming the one on the right Jachin, and that on the left Boaz.
The tops of the pillars had a design of flowers; and the work of making the pillars was complete.
23 Kemudian Huram membuat sebuah bejana perunggu yang bundar, dengan ukuran sebagai berikut: dalamnya 2,2 meter, garis tengahnya 4,4 meter dan lingkarnya 13,2 meter.
And he made a great metal water-vessel ten cubits across from edge to edge, five cubits high and thirty cubits round.
24 Sekeliling tepi luarnya dihias dengan dua jajar buah labu, yang dicor bersama-sama dengan bejana itu.
And under the edge of it, circling it all round for ten cubits, were two lines of flower buds, made together with it from liquid metal.
25 Bejana itu ditempatkan di atas punggung dua belas sapi perunggu--tiga menghadap ke utara, tiga ke selatan, tiga ke barat, dan tiga ke timur.
It was supported on twelve oxen, with their back parts turned to the middle of it, three of them facing to the north, three to the west, three to the south, and three to the east; the vessel was resting on top of them.
26 Tebal bejana itu 75 milimeter. Tepinya serupa tepi cangkir yang melengkung keluar mirip bunga bakung yang mekar. Bejana itu dapat memuat kira-kira 40.000 liter.
It was as thick as a man's open hand, and was curved like the edge of a cup, like the flower of a lily: it would take two thousand baths.
27 Huram juga membuat sepuluh kereta perunggu, masing-masing panjangnya 1,8 meter, lebarnya 1,8 meter, tingginya 1,3 meter.
And he made ten wheeled bases of brass; every one four cubits long, four cubits wide, and three cubits high.
28 Kereta-kereta itu terdiri dari papan-papan persegi yang dipasang dalam bingkai.
And the bases were made in this way; their sides were square, fixed in a framework;
29 Papan-papan itu dihias dengan ukiran singa, sapi dan kerub. Pada bingkai-bingkainya--di atas dan di bawah gambar-gambar singa dan sapi itu--tergantung ukiran rangkaian bunga.
And on the square sides between the frames were lions, oxen, and winged ones; and the same on the frame; and over and under the lions and the oxen and the winged ones were steps.
30 Setiap kereta itu mempunyai empat roda perunggu dengan poros roda dari perunggu juga. Pada keempat sudut kereta itu ada tiang penahan baskom dari perunggu dengan hiasan rangkaian bunga di sebelah luarnya.
Every base had four wheels of brass, turning on brass rods, and their four angles had angle-plates under them; the angle-plates under the base were of metal, and there were ornaments at the side of every one.
31 Bagian atas keempat tiang penahan itu dihubungkan oleh sebuah bingkai bundar untuk penahan baskomnya. Tiang-tiang penahan itu menonjol setinggi 44 sentimeter di atas papan persegi itu, dan 22 sentimeter di bawahnya. Pada mulut bingkai itu ada ukiran.
The mouth of it inside the angle-plate was one cubit across; it was round like a pillar, a cubit and a half across; it had designs cut on it; the sides were square, not round.
32 Tinggi roda-rodanya 66 sentimeter; letaknya di bawah papan-papan. Poros rodanya dengan keretanya merupakan satu bagian.
The four wheels were under the frames, and the rods on which the wheels were fixed were in the base; the wheels were a cubit and a half high.
33 Roda-rodanya itu serupa dengan roda kereta perang; lingkar roda, jari-jari, poros dan pusat jari-jari rodanya semuanya terbuat dari perunggu.
The wheels were made like carriage-wheels, the rods on which they were fixed, the parts forming their edges, their rods and the middle points of them, were all formed out of liquid metal.
34 Ada empat tiang penahan pada setiap sudut bagian bawah kereta itu. Tiang-tiang itu merupakan satu bagian dengan keretanya.
And there were four angle-plates at the four angles of every base, forming part of the structure of the base.
35 Di sekeliling bagian atas kereta itu ada pinggiran selebar 22 sentimeter. Tiang penahannya dan papan-papannya semuanya merupakan satu bagian dengan keretanya.
And at the top of the base there was a round vessel, half a cubit high;
36 Tiang-tiang penahan dan papan-papan itu dihiasi dengan gambar kerub, singa, dan pohon palem di mana saja ada tempat yang kosong untuk itu, disertai rangkaian bunga sekelilingnya.
In the spaces of the flat sides and on the frames of them, he made designs of winged ones, lions, and palm-trees, with ornamented edges all round.
37 Demikianlah caranya kereta-kereta itu dibuat. Semuanya serupa--bentuk dan ukurannya.
All the ten bases were made in this way, after the same design, of the same size and form.
38 Huram membuat juga sepuluh baskom besar, satu untuk setiap kereta. Tiap baskom itu mempunyai garis tengah 1,8 meter dan dapat memuat 800 liter air.
And he made ten brass washing-vessels, everyone taking forty baths, and measuring four cubits; one vessel was placed on every one of the ten bases.
39 Huram menaruh lima kereta di sebelah selatan Rumah TUHAN, dan lima di sebelah utara. Bejana perunggu diletakkannya di sudut sebelah tenggara.
And he put the bases by the house, five on the right side and five on the left; and he put the great water-vessel on the right side of the house, to the east, facing south.
40 Huram membuat juga kuali-kuali, sekop-sekop dan mangkuk-mangkuk. Sesudah itu selesailah seluruh pekerjaannya bagi Raja Salomo untuk Rumah TUHAN. Inilah perlengkapan yang telah dibuatnya: Dua tiang besar; Dua kepala tiang berbentuk mangkuk yang ditempatkan di atas kedua tiang itu; Anyaman rantai pada setiap kepala tiang; Empat ratus delima perunggu yang disusun dalam dua jajar sekeliling anyaman rantai pada setiap kepala tiang; Sepuluh kereta; Sepuluh baskom besar; Bejana perunggu; Dua belas sapi perunggu yang menopang bejana itu; Kuali-kuali, sekop-sekop dan mangkuk-mangkuk. Semua perlengkapan untuk Rumah TUHAN itu, yang dibuat Huram untuk Raja Salomo, dibuat dari perunggu, dan digosok sampai berkilap.
And Hiram made the pots and spades and the basins. So Hiram came to the end of all the work he did for King Solomon in the house of the Lord:
The two pillars and the two cups of the crowns which were on the tops of the two pillars; and the network covering the two cups of the crowns on the tops of the pillars,
And the four hundred apples for the network, two lines of apples for every network, covering the two cups of the crowns on the pillars;
And the ten bases, with the ten washing-vessels on them;
And the great water-vessel, with the twelve oxen under it;
And the pots and the spades and the basins; all the vessels which Hiram made for King Solomon, for the house of the Lord, were of polished brass.
46 Raja menyuruh membuat barang-barang itu di pengecoran logam antara Sukot dan Sartan di Lembah Yordan.
He made them of liquid metal in the lowland of Jordan, at the way across the river, at Adama, between Succoth and Zarethan.
47 Salomo tidak menyuruh menimbang barang-barang perunggu itu, sebab jumlahnya terlalu banyak. Jadi, berat barang-barang itu tidak diketahui.
The weight of all these vessels was not measured, because there was such a number of them; it was not possible to get the weight of the brass.
48 Raja Salomo juga menyuruh membuat perlengkapan-perlengkapan lain dari emas untuk Rumah TUHAN. Inilah perlengkapan-perlengkapan yang dibuatnya itu: Mezbah; Meja untuk roti yang dipersembahkan kepada Allah; Sepuluh kaki pelita yang ditempatkan di depan Ruang Mahasuci yaitu lima di sebelah selatan dan lima di sebelah utara; Bunga-bunga; Pelita-pelita; Sepit-sepit; Cangkir-cangkir; Alat pemadam pelita; Mangkuk-mangkuk; Piring-piring untuk dupa; Piring-piring untuk bara; Engsel-engsel untuk pintu Ruang Mahasuci dan pintu-pintu luar Rumah TUHAN.
And Solomon had all the vessels made for use in the house of the Lord: the altar of gold and the gold table on which the holy bread was placed;
And the supports for the lights, five on the right side and five on the left before the inmost room, of clear gold; and the flowers and the lights and all the instruments of gold;
And the cups and the scissors and the basins and the spoons and the fire-trays, all of gold; and the pins on which the doors were turned, the doors of the inner house, the most holy place, and the doors of the Temple, all of gold.
51 Setelah Raja Salomo selesai membangun Rumah TUHAN, ia menyimpan di dalam gudang-gudang rumah itu semua perak, emas, dan barang-barang lain yang telah dipersembahkan oleh Daud ayahnya kepada TUHAN.
So all the work King Solomon had done in the house of the Lord was complete. Then Solomon took the holy things which David his father had given, the silver and the gold and all the vessels, and put them in the store-houses of the house of the Lord.
