I Regum 6
1 factum est igitur quadringentesimo et octogesimo anno egressionis filiorum Israhel de terra Aegypti in anno quarto mense zio ipse est mensis secundus regis Salomonis super Israhel aedificare coepit domum Domino
And it came to pass in the four hundred and eightieth year after the children of Israel were come out of the land of Egypt, in the fourth year of Solomon’s reign over Israel, in the month Zif, which [is] the second month, that he began to build the house of the LORD.
2 domus autem quam aedificabat rex Salomon Domino habebat sexaginta cubitos in longitudine et viginti cubitos in latitudine et triginta cubitos in altitudine
And the house which the king built to the Lord [was] forty cubits in length, and twenty cubits in breadth, and its height five and twenty cubits.
3 et porticus erat ante templum viginti cubitorum longitudinis iuxta mensuram latitudinis templi et habebat decem cubitos latitudinis ante faciem templi
And the porch in front of the temple—twenty cubits [was] its length according to the breadth of the house in front of the house: and he built the house, and finished it.
4 fecitque in templo fenestras obliquas
And he made to the house secret windows inclining inward.
5 et aedificavit super parietem templi tabulata per gyrum in parietibus domus per circuitum templi et oraculi et fecit latera in circuitu
And against the wall of the house he set chambers round about the temple and the ark.
6 tabulatum quod subter erat quinque cubitos habebat latitudinis et medium tabulatum sex cubitorum latitudinis et tertium tabulatum septem habens cubitos latitudinis trabes autem posuit in domo per circuitum forinsecus ut non hererent muris templi
The under side [was] five cubits broad, and the middle [part] six, and the third [was] seven cubits broad; for he formed an interval to the house round about without the house, that they might not touch the walls of the house.
7 domus autem cum aedificaretur lapidibus dedolatis atque perfectis aedificata est et malleus et securis et omne ferramentum non sunt audita in domo cum aedificaretur
And the house was built in the construction of it with rough hewn stones: and there was not heard in the house in the building of it hammer or axe, or any iron tool.
8 ostium lateris medii in parte erat domus dexterae et per cocleam ascendebant in medium cenaculum et a medio in tertium
And the porch of the under side [was] below the right wing of the house, and [there was] a winding ascent into the middle [chamber], and from the middle to the third story.
9 et aedificavit domum et consummavit eam texit quoque domum laquearibus cedrinis
So he built the house and finished it; and he made the ceiling of the house with cedars.
10 et aedificavit tabulatum super omnem domum quinque cubitis altitudinis et operuit domum lignis cedrinis
And he made the partitions through all the house, each five cubits high, and enclosed each partition with cedar boards.
11 et factus est sermo Domini ad Salomonem dicens
12 domus haec quam aedificas si ambulaveris in praeceptis meis et iudicia mea feceris et custodieris omnia mandata mea gradiens per ea firmabo sermonem meum tibi quem locutus sum ad David patrem tuum
13 et habitabo in medio filiorum Israhel et non derelinquam populum meum Israhel
14 igitur aedificavit Salomon domum et consummavit eam
15 et aedificavit parietes domus intrinsecus tabulatis cedrinis a pavimento domus usque ad summitatem parietum et usque ad laquearia operuit lignis intrinsecus et texit pavimentum domus tabulis abiegnis
And he framed the walls of the house within with cedar boards, from the floor of the house and on to the inner walls and to the beams: he lined the parts enclosed with boards within, and compassed the inward parts of the house with planks of fir.
16 aedificavitque viginti cubitorum ad posteriorem partem templi tabulata cedrina a pavimento usque ad superiora et fecit interiorem domum oraculi in sanctum sanctorum
And he built the twenty cubits from the top of the wall, one side from the floor to the beams, and he made it from the oracle to the most holy place.
17 porro quadraginta cubitorum erat ipsum templum pro foribus oraculi
And the temple was forty cubits [in extent],
18 et cedro omnis domus intrinsecus vestiebatur habens tornaturas suas et iuncturas fabrefactas et celaturas eminentes omnia cedrinis tabulis vestiebantur nec omnino lapis apparere poterat in pariete
19 oraculum autem in medio domus in interiori parte fecerat ut poneret ibi arcam foederis Domini
in front of the oracle in the midst of the house within, [in order] to put there the ark of the covenant of the Lord.
20 porro oraculum habebat viginti cubitos longitudinis et viginti cubitos latitudinis et viginti cubitos altitudinis et operuit illud atque vestivit auro purissimo sed et altare vestivit cedro
The length [was] twenty cubits, and the breadth [was] twenty cubits, and the height of it was twenty cubits. And he covered it with perfect gold, and he made an altar in front of the oracle, and covered it with gold.
21 domum quoque ante oraculum operuit auro purissimo et adfixit lamminas clavis aureis
And he covered the whole house with gold, till he had finished [gilding] the whole house.
22 nihilque erat in templo quod non auro tegeretur sed et totum altare oraculi texit auro
23 et fecit in oraculo duo cherubin de lignis olivarum decem cubitorum altitudinis
And he made in the oracle two cherubs of ten cubits measured size.
24 quinque cubitorum ala cherub una et quinque cubitorum ala cherub altera id est decem cubitos habentes a summitate alae usque ad alae alterius summitatem
And the wing of one cherub was five cubits, and his other wing was five cubits; ten cubits from the tip of one wing to the tip of the other wing.
25 decem quoque cubitorum erat cherub secundus mensura pari et opus unum erat in duobus cherubin
Thus it was with the other cherub, both were alike finished with one measure.
26 id est altitudinem habebat unus cherub decem cubitorum et similiter cherub secundus
And the height of the one cherub [was] ten cubits, and so [was it] with the second cherub.
27 posuitque cherubin in medio templi interioris extendebant autem alas suas cherubin et tangebat ala una parietem et ala cherub secundi tangebat parietem alterum alae autem alterae in media parte templi se invicem contingebant
And both the cherubs [were] in the midst of the innermost part of the house; and they spread out their wings, and one wing touched the wall, and the wing of the other cherub touched the other wall; and their wings in the midst of the house touched each other.
28 texit quoque cherubin auro
And he covered the cherubs with gold.
29 et omnes parietes templi per circuitum scalpsit variis celaturis et torno et fecit in eis cherubin et palmas et picturas varias quasi prominentes de pariete et egredientes
He graved all the walls of the house round about with the graving of cherubs, and [he sculptured] palm trees within and without [the house].
30 sed et pavimentum domus texit auro intrinsecus et extrinsecus
And he covered the floor of the house within and without with gold.
31 et in ingressu oraculi fecit ostiola de lignis olivarum postesque angulorum quinque
And for the door-way of the oracle he made doors of juniper wood, [there were] porches in a four-fold way.
32 et duo ostia de lignis olivarum et scalpsit in eis picturam cherubin et palmarum species et anaglyfa valde prominentia et texit ea auro et operuit tam cherubin quam palmas et cetera auro
33 fecitque in introitum templi postes de lignis olivarum quadrangulatos
34 et duo ostia de lignis abiegnis altrinsecus et utrumque ostium duplex erat et se invicem tenens aperiebatur
In both the doors [were] planks of fir; the one door had two leaves and their hinges, and the other door had two leaves and turned [on hinges],
35 et scalpsit cherubin et palmas et celaturas valde eminentes operuitque omnia lamminis aureis opere quadro ad regulam
being carved with cherubs, and [there were] palm-trees and open flower-leaves, and it [was] overlaid with gold gilt upon the engraving.
36 et aedificavit atrium interius tribus ordinibus lapidum politorum et uno ordine lignorum cedri
And he built the inner court, three rows of hewn stones, and a row of wrought cedar round about, and he made the curtain of the court of the porch of the house that was in front of the temple.
37 anno quarto fundata est domus Domini in mense zio
38 et in anno undecimo mense bul ipse est mensis octavus perfecta est domus in omni opere suo et in universis utensilibus aedificavitque eam annis septem
