I Regum 7
1 Domum autem suam aedificavit Salomon tredecim annis, et ad perfectum usque perduxit.
And his own house hath Solomon built thirteen years, and he finisheth all his house.
2 Aedificavit quoque domum saltus Libani centum cubitorum longitudinis, et quinquaginta cubitorum latitudinis, et triginta cubitorum altitudinis: et quattuor deambulacra inter columnas cedrinas: ligna quippe cedrina exciderat in columnas.
And he buildeth the house of the forest of Lebanon; a hundred cubits [is] its length, and fifty cubits its breadth, and thirty cubits its height, on four rows of cedar pillars, and cedar-beams on the pillars;
3 Et tabulatis cedrinis vestivit totam cameram, quae quadragintaquinque columnis sustentabatur. Unus autem ordo habebat columnas quindecim
and [it is] covered with cedar above, on the sides that [are] on the forty and five pillars, fifteen in the row.
4 contra se invicem positas,
And windows [are] in three rows, and sight [is] over-against sight three times.
5 et e regione se respicientes, aequali spatio inter columnas, et super columnas quadrangulata ligna in cunctis aequalia.
And all the openings and the side-posts [are] square — windows; and sight [is] over-against sight three times.
6 Et porticum columnarum fecit quinquaginta cubitorum longitudinis, et triginta cubitorum latitudinis: et alteram porticum in facie maioris porticus: et columnas, et epistylia super columnas.
And the porch of the pillars he hath made; fifty cubits its length, and thirty cubits its breadth, and the porch [is] before them, and pillars and a thick place [are] before them.
7 Porticum quoque solii, in qua tribunal est, fecit: et texit lignis cedrinis a pavimento usque ad summitatem.
And the porch of the throne where he judgeth — the porch of judgment — he hath made, and [it is] covered with cedar from the floor unto the floor.
8 Et domuncula, in qua sedebatur ad iudicandum, erat in media porticu, simili opere. Domum quoque fecit filiae Pharaonis (quam uxorem duxerat Salomon) tali opere, quali et hanc porticum.
As to his house where he dwelleth, the other court [is] within the porch — as this work it hath been; and a house he maketh for the daughter of Pharaoh — whom Solomon hath taken — like this porch.
9 Omnia lapidibus pretiosis, qui ad normam quandam atque mensuram tam intrinsecus quam extrinsecus serrati erant: a fundamento usque ad summitatem parietum, et intrinsecus usque ad atrium maius.
All these [are] of precious stone, according to the measures of hewn work, sawn with a saw, within and without, even from the foundation unto the coping, and at the outside, unto the great court.
10 Fundamenta autem de lapidibus pretiosis, lapidibus magnis decem sive octo cubitorum.
And the foundation [is] of precious stone, great stones, stones of ten cubits, and stones of eight cubits;
11 Et desuper lapides pretiosi aequalis mensurae secti erant, similiterque de cedro.
and above [are] precious stone, according to the measures of hewn work, and cedar;
12 Et atrium maius rotundum trium ordinum de lapidibus sectis, et unius ordinis de dolata cedro: necnon et in atrio domus Domini interiori, et in porticu domus.
and the great court round about [is] three rows of hewn work, and a row of cedar-beams, even for the inner court of the house of Jehovah, and for the porch of the house.
13 Misit quoque rex Salomon, et tulit Hiram de Tyro,
And king Solomon sendeth and taketh Hiram out of Tyre —
14 filium mulieris viduae de tribu Nephthali, patre Tyrio, artificem aerarium, et plenum sapientia, et intelligentia, et doctrina ad faciendum omne opus ex aere. Qui cum venisset ad regem Salomonem, fecit omne opus eius.
he [is] son of a woman, a widow, of the tribe of Naphtali, and his father a man of Tyre, a worker in brass, and he is filled with the wisdom and the understanding, and the knowledge to do all work in brass — and he cometh unto king Solomon, and doth all his work.
15 Et finxit duas columnas aereas, decem et octo cubitorum altitudinis columnam unam: et linea duodecim cubitorum ambiebat columnam utramque.
And he formeth the two pillars of brass; eighteen cubits [is] the height of the one pillar, and a cord of twelve cubits doth compass the second pillar.
16 Duo quoque capitella fecit, quae ponerentur super capita columnarum, fusilia ex aere: quinque cubitorum altitudinis capitellum unum, et quinque cubitorum altitudinis capitellum alterum:
And two chapiters he hath made to put on the tops of the pillars, cast in brass; five cubits the height of the one chapiter, and five cubits the height of the second chapiter.
17 et quasi in modum retis, et catenarum sibi invicem miro opere contextarum. Utrumque capitellum columnarum fusile erat: septena versuum retiacula in capitello uno, et septena retiacula in capitello altero.
Nets of net-work, wreaths of chain-work [are] for the chapiters that [are] on the top of the pillars, seven for the one chapiter, and seven for the second chapiter.
18 Et perfecit columnas, et duos ordines per circuitum retiaculorum singulorum, ut tegerent capitella, quae erant super summitatem, malogranatorum: eodem modo fecit et capitello secundo.
And he maketh the pillars, and two rows round about on the one net-work, to cover the chapiters that [are] on the top, with the pomegranates, and so he hath made for the second chapiter.
19 Capitella autem, quae erant super capita columnarum, quasi opere lilii fabricata erant in porticu quattuor cubitorum.
And the chapiters that [are] on the top of the pillars [are] of lily-work in the porch, four cubits;
20 Et rursum alia capitella in summitate columnarum desuper iuxta mensuram columnae contra retiacula: malogranatorum autem ducenti ordines erant in circuitu capitelli secundi.
and the chapiters on the two pillars also above, over-against the protuberance that [is] beside the net; and the pomegranates [are] two hundred, in rows round about on the second chapiter.
21 Et statuit duas columnas in porticu templi: cumque statuisset columnam dexteram, vocavit eam nomine Iachin: similiter erexit columnam secundam: et vocavit nomen eius Booz.
And he raiseth up the pillars for the porch of the temple, and he raiseth up the right pillar, and calleth its name Jachin, and he raiseth up the left pillar, and calleth its name Boaz;
22 Et super capita columnarum opus in modum lilii posuit: perfectumque est opus columnarum.
and on the top of the pillars [is] lily-work; and the work of the pillars [is] completed.
23 Fecit quoque mare fusile decem cubitorum a labio usque ad labium, rotundum in circuitu: quinque cubitorum altitudo eius, et resticula triginta cubitorum cingebat illud per circuitum.
And he maketh the molten sea, ten by the cubit from its edge unto its edge; [it is] round all about, and five by the cubit [is] its height, and a line of thirty by the cubit doth compass it round about;
24 Et sculptura subter labium circuibat illud decem cubitis ambiens mare: duo ordines sculpturarum histriatarum erant fusiles.
and knops beneath its brim round about are compassing it, ten by the cubit, going round the sea round about; in two rows [are] the knops, cast in its being cast.
25 Et stabant super duodecim boves, e quibus tres respiciebant ad Aquilonem, et tres ad Occidentem, et tres ad Meridiem, et tres ad Orientem, et mare super eos desuper erat: quorum posteriora universa intrinsecus latitabant.
It is standing on twelve oxen, three facing the north, and three facing the west, and three facing the south, and three facing the east, and the sea [is] upon them above, and all their hinder parts [are] inward.
26 Grossitudo autem luteris, trium unciarum erat: labiumque eius, quasi labium calicis, et folium repandi lilii: duo millia batos capiebat et tria millia metretas.
And its thickness [is] an handbreadth, and its edge as the work of the edge of a cup, flowers of lilies; two thousand baths it containeth.
27 Et fecit decem bases aeneas, quattuor cubitorum longitudinis bases singulas, et quattuor cubitorum latitudinis, et trium cubitorum altitudinis.
And he maketh the ten bases of brass; four by the cubit [is] the length of the one base, and four by the cubit its breadth, and three by the cubit its height.
28 Et ipsum opus basium, interrasile erat: et sculpturae inter iuncturas.
And this [is] the work of the base: they have borders, and the borders [are] between the joinings;
29 Et inter coronulas et plectas, leones et boves et cherubim: et in iuncturis similiter desuper: et subter leones, et boves quasi lora ex aere dependentia.
and on the borders that [are] between the joinings [are] lions, oxen, and cherubs, and on the joinings a base above, and beneath the lions and the oxen [are] additions — sloping work.
30 Et quattuor rotae per bases singulas, et axes aerei: et per quattuor partes quasi humeruli subter luterem fusiles, contra se invicem respectantes.
And four wheels of brass [are] to the one base, and axles of brass; and its four corners have shoulders — under the laver [are] the molten shoulders, beside each addition.
31 Os quoque luteris intrinsecus erat in capitis summitate: et quod forinsecus apparebat, unius cubiti erat totum rotundum, pariterque habebat unum cubitum et dimidium: in angulis autem columnarum variae caelaturae erant: et media intercolumnia, quadrata non rotunda.
And its mouth within the chapiter and above [is] by the cubit, and its mouth [is] round, the work of the base, a cubit and half a cubit; and also on its mouth [are] carvings and their borders, square, not round.
32 Quattuor quoque rotae, quae per quattuor angulos basis erant, cohaerebant sibi subter basim: una rota habebat altitudinis cubitum et semis.
And the four wheels [are] under the borders, and the spokes of the wheels [are] in the base, and the height of the one wheel [is] a cubit and half a cubit.
33 Tales autem rotae erant quales solent in curru fieri: et axes earum, et radii, et canthi, et modioli, omnia fusilia.
And the work of the wheels [is] as the work of the wheel of a chariot, their spokes, and their axles, and their felloes, and their naves; the whole [is] molten.
34 Nam et humeruli illi quattuor per singulos angulos basis unius, ex ipsa basi fusiles et coniuncti erant.
And four shoulders [are] unto the four corners of the one base; out of the base [are] its shoulders.
35 In summitate autem basis erat quaedam rotunditas unius et dimidii cubiti, ita fabrefacta, ut luter desuper posset imponi, habens caelaturas suas, variasque sculpturas ex semetipsa.
And in the top of the base [is] the half of a cubit in the height all round about; and on the top of the base its spokes and its borders [are] of the same.
36 Sculpsit quoque in tabulatis illis, quae erant ex aere, et in angulis, cherubim, et leones, et palmas, quasi in similitudinem hominis stantis, ut non caelata, sed apposita per circuitum viderentur.
And he openeth on the tablets of its spokes, and on its borders, cherubs, lions, and palm-trees, according to the void space of each, and additions round about.
37 In hunc modum fecit decem bases, fusura una, et mensura, sculpturaque consimili.
Thus he hath made the ten bases; one casting, one measure, one form, have they all.
38 Fecit quoque decem luteres aeneos: quadraginta batos capiebat luter unus, eratque quattuor cubitorum: singulos quoque luteres per singulas, id est, decem bases, posuit.
And he maketh ten lavers of brass; forty baths doth the one laver contain, four by the cubit [is] the one laver, one laver on the one base [is] to the ten bases;
39 Et constituit decem bases, quinque ad dexteram partem templi, et quinque ad sinistram: mare autem posuit ad dexteram partem templi contra Orientem ad Meridiem.
and he putteth the five bases on the right side of the house, and five on the left side of the house, and the sea he hath put on the right side of the house, eastward — over-against the south.
40 Fecit ergo Hiram lebetes, et scutras, et amulas, et perfecit omne opus regis Salomonis in templo Domini.
And Hiram maketh the lavers, and the shovels, and the bowls; and Hiram completeth to do all the work that he made for king Solomon, [for] the house of Jehovah;
41 Columnas duas, et funiculos capitellorum super capitella columnarum duos: et retiacula duo, ut operirent duos funiculos, qui erant super capita columnarum.
pillars two, and bowls of the chapiters that [are] on the top of the pillars two, and the nets two, to cover the two bowls of the chapiters that [are] on the top of the pillars;
42 Et malogranata quadringenta in duobus retiaculis: duos versus malogranatorum in retiaculis singulis, ad operiendos funiculos capitellorum, qui erant super capita columnarum.
and the pomegranates four hundred for the two nets, two rows of pomegranates for the one net, to cover the two bowls of the chapiters that [are] on the front of the pillars;
43 Et bases decem, et luteres decem super bases.
and the ten bases, and the ten lavers on the bases;
44 Et mare unum, et boves duodecim subter mare.
and the one sea, the twelve oxen under the sea,
45 Et lebetes, et scutras, et amulas. omnia vasa, quae fecit Hiram regi Salomoni in domo Domini, de auricalco erant.
and the pots, and the shovels, and the bowls; and all these vessels, that Hiram hath made to king Solomon [for] the house of Jehovah, [are] of brass — polished.
46 In campestri regione Iordanis fudit ea rex in argillosa terra, inter Sochoth et Sarthan.
In the circuit of the Jordan hath the king cast them, in the thick soil of the ground, between Succoth and Zarthan.
47 Et posuit Salomon omnia vasa: propter multitudinem autem nimiam non erat pondus aeris.
And Solomon placeth the whole of the vessels; because of the very great abundance, the weight of the brass hath not been searched out.
48 Fecitque Salomon omnia vasa in domo Domini: altare aureum, et mensam, super quam ponerentur panes propositionis, auream:
And Solomon maketh all the vessels that [are] in the house of Jehovah: the altar of gold, and the table — on which [is] the bread of the Presence — of gold,
49 et candelabra aurea, quinque ad dexteram, et quinque ad sinistram contra oraculum ex auro puro: et quasi lilii flores, et lucernas desuper aureas: et forcipes aureos,
and the candlesticks, five on the right, and five on the left, before the oracle, of refined gold, and the flowers, and the lamps, and the tongs, of gold,
50 et hydrias, et fuscinulas, et phialas, et mortariola, et thuribula, de auro purissimo: et cardines ostiorum domus interioris Sancti sanctorum, et ostiorum domus templi, ex auro erant.
and the basins, and the snuffers, and the bowls, and the spoons, and the censers, of refined gold, and the hinges for the doors of the inner-house, for the holy of holies, for the doors of the house of the temple, of gold.
51 Et perfecit omne opus quod faciebat Salomon in domo Domini, et intulit quae sanctificaverat David pater suus, argentum et aurum, et vasa, reposuitque in thesauris domus Domini.
And it is complete — all the work that king Solomon hath made [for] the house of Jehovah, and Solomon bringeth in the sanctified things of David his father; the silver, and the gold, and the vessels he hath put in the treasuries of the house of Jehovah.
