Ii Paralipomenon 3
1 Et coepit Salomon aedificare domum Domini in Ierusalem in monte Moria, qui demonstratus fuerat David patri eius, in loco, quem paraverat David in area Ornan Iebusaei.
And Solomon began to build the house of the Lord in Jerusalem on mount Moriah, where He had appeared unto David his father, on the place that David had prepared in the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
2 Coepit autem aedificare mense secundo, anno quarto regni sui.
And he began to build on the second day of the second month, in the fourth year of his reign.
3 Et haec sunt fundamenta, quae iecit Salomon, ut aedificaret domum Dei, longitudinis cubitos in mensura prima sexaginta, latitudinis cubitos viginti.
Now in this manner was the foundation laid of the house of God [at its] building [by] Solomon: The length by cubits after the first measure was sixty cubits, and the breadth twenty cubits.
4 Porticum vero ante frontem, quae tendebatur in longum iuxta mensuram latitudinis domus, cubitorum viginti: porro altitudo centum viginti cubitorum erat: et deauravit eam intrinsecus auro mundissimo.
And the porch that was in the front of the length was according to the breadth of the house, twenty cubits, and the height was a hundred and twenty: and he overlaid it within with pure gold.
5 Domum quoque maiorem texit tabulis ligneis abiegnis, et laminas auri obrizi affixit per totum: sculpsitque in ea palmas, et quasi catenulas se invicem complectentes.
And the great house he ceiled with fir-wood, which he overlaid with pure gold, and he wrought thereon palm-trees and chains.
6 Stravit quoque pavimentum templi pretiosissimo marmore, decore multo.
And he overlaid the house with costly stones for ornament: and the gold was gold of Parvayim.
7 Porro aurum erat probatissimum, de cuius laminis texit domum, et trabes eius, et postes, et parietes, et ostia: et caelavit cherubim in parietibus.
And he covered the house, the beams, the sills, and its walls, and its doors, with gold: and he engraved cherubim on the walls.
8 Fecit quoque domum Sancti sanctorum: longitudinem iuxta latitudinem domus cubitorum viginti: et latitudinem similiter viginti cubitorum: et laminis aureis texit eam, quasi talentis sexcentis.
And he made the most holy house, its length being in front of the breadth of the house, twenty cubits, and its breadth twenty cubits: and he covered it with fine gold, [amounting] to six hundred talents.
9 Sed et clavos fecit aureos, ita ut singuli clavi siclos quinquagenos appenderent: caenacula quoque texit auro.
And the weight of the nails [amounted] to fifty shekels of gold. And the upper chambers he covered with gold.
10 Fecit etiam in domo Sancti sanctorum cherubim duos, opere statuario: et texit eos auro.
And he made in the most holy house two cherubim of sculpture work, and they overlaid them with gold.
11 Alae cherubim viginti cubitis extendebantur, ita ut una ala haberet cubitos quinque et tangeret parietem domus: et altera quinque cubitos habens, alam tangeret alterius cherub.
And regarding the wings of the cherubim their length was twenty cubits; the wing of the one amounting to five cubits, reaching to the wall of the house: and the other wing of five cubits, reaching to the wing of the other cherub.
12 Similiter cherub alterius ala, quinque habebat cubitos, et tangebat parietem: et ala eius altera quinque cubitorum, alam cherub alterius contingebat.
And the wing of the other cherub was five cubits, reaching to the wall of the house; and the other wing of five cubits was joined closely to the wing of the other cherub.
13 Igitur alae utriusque cherubim expansae erant, et extendebantur per cubitos viginti: ipsi autem stabant erectis pedibus, et facies eorum erant versae ad exteriorem domum.
The wings of these cherubim [as they were] spread out were twenty cubits: and they were standing on their feet, and their faces were inward.
14 Fecit quoque velum ex hyacintho, purpura, cocco, et bysso: et intexuit ei cherubim.
And he made the vail of blue, and purple, and crimson, and fine linen, and wrought thereon cherubim.
15 Ante fores etiam templi duas columnas, quae triginta et quinque cubitos habebant altitudinis: porro capita earum, quinque cubitorum.
And he made before the house two pillars of thirty and five cubits in length, and the capital that was on the top of each of them was five cubits.
16 Necnon et quasi catenulas in oraculo, et superposuit eas capitibus columnarum: malogranata etiam centum, quae catenulis interposuit.
And he made chains in the debir; and [others which] he placed on the top of the pillars; and he made a hundred pomegranates, and placed them on the chains.
17 Ipsas quoque columnas posuit in vestibulo templi, unam a dextris, et alteram a sinistris: eam, quae a dextris erat, vocavit Iachin: et quae ad laevam, Booz.
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 that on the right hand Jachin, and the name of that on the left Bo'az.
