2 Masolo ya Kala 3
1 Salomo abandaki kotonga Tempelo ya Yawe kati na Yelusalemi, na likolo ya ngomba Morija epai wapi Yawe abimelaki Davidi, tata na ye, mpe kaka na esika oyo Davidi abongisaki na etando ya Orinani, moto ya Yebusi.
Then Solomon began to build the house of the LORD in Jerusalem on Mount Moriah, where the LORD had appeared to his father David. This was the place that David had prepared on the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
2 Abandaki kotonga na mokolo ya mibale ya sanza ya mibale, na mobu ya minei ya bokonzi na ye.
Solomon began construction on the second day of the second month in the fourth year of his reign.
3 Moboko oyo Salomo asalaki mpo na kotonga Tempelo ya Nzambe ezalaki na bametele pene tuku misato na molayi, mpe bametele pene zomi, na mokuse.
The foundation that Solomon laid for the house of God was sixty cubits long and twenty cubits wide, according to the old standard.
4 Ndako moke ya kokotela na Tempelo ya Yawe ezalaki na bametele pene zomi, na bosanda, mpe bametele pene zomi, na mokuse. Apakolaki wolo ya peto kati na yango.
The portico at the front, extending across the width of the temple, was twenty cubits long and twenty cubits high. He overlaid the inside with pure gold.
5 Babetaki mabaya ya sipele na bamir ya eteni oyo eleki monene mpe abambaki wolo ya peto na likolo na yango. Asalaki bililingi ya nzete ya mbila mpe ya basinga elingama-lingama lokola basheni.
He paneled the main room with cypress, which he overlaid with fine gold and decorated with palm trees and chains.
6 Abambaki mabanga ya talo mpo na kokomisa yango kitoko. Wolo oyo asalelaki ezalaki wolo ya Parivayimi.
He adorned the temple with precious stones for beauty, and its gold was from Parvaim.
7 Apakolaki wolo na motondo, na bikuke, na bamir, mpe atobolaki bililingi ya basheribe na bamir.
He overlaid its beams, thresholds, walls, and doors with gold, and he carved cherubim on the walls.
8 Atongaki Esika-Oyo-Eleki-Bule; molayi na yango ekokanaki na mokuse ya Tempelo ya Yawe: bametele pene zomi, na molayi, mpe bametele pene zomi, na mokuse. Apakolaki wolo ya peto ya bakilo pene nkoto tuku mibale kati na Tempelo ya Yawe.
Then he made the Most Holy Place; its length corresponded to the width of the temple—twenty cubits long and twenty cubits wide. And he overlaid the inside with six hundred talents of fine gold.
9 Basete oyo basalelaki ezalaki ya wolo, mpe ezalaki ya bagrame nkama motoba. Apakolaki lisusu wolo na bashambre ya likolo.
The weight of the nails was fifty shekels of gold. He also overlaid the upper area with gold.
10 Atiaki bililingi ya basheribe mibale kati na Esika-Oyo-Eleki-Bule mpe apakolaki yango wolo.
In the Most Holy Place he made two cherubim of sculptured work, and he overlaid them with gold.
11 Mapapu ya basheribe ezalaki na bametele pene zomi na molayi. Lipapu ya sheribe ya liboso ezalaki na molayi ya bametele mibale na basantimetele tuku mitano, mpe etutaki mir ya Tempelo ya Yawe; bongo lipapu na ye mosusu, oyo ezalaki na bametele mibale na basantimetele tuku mitano, etutaki lipapu ya sheribe ya mibale, oyo ezalaki mpe na bametele mibale na basantimetele tuku mitano.
The total wingspan of the cherubim was twenty cubits. One wing of the first cherub was five cubits long and touched the wall of the temple, and its other wing was five cubits long and touched the wing of the other cherub.
12 Ndenge moko mpe mpo na lipapu ya sheribe ya mibale, oyo ezalaki na molayi ya bametele mibale na basantimetele tuku mitano: etutaki mir mosusu ya Tempelo ya Yawe; mpe lipapu mosusu oyo ezalaki na molayi ya bametele mibale na basantimetele tuku mitano etutaki lipapu ya sheribe ya liboso.
The wing of the second cherub also measured five cubits and touched the wall of the temple, while its other wing measured five cubits and touched the wing of the first cherub.
13 Mapapu ya basheribe yango ezalaki ya kofungwama na molayi ya bametele pene zomi. Basheribe nyonso mibale batelemaki na makolo na bango, mpe bilongi na bango ezalaki kotala na ngambo ya kati ya Esika ya bule.
So the total wingspan of these cherubim was twenty cubits. They stood on their feet, facing the main room.
14 Asalaki rido ya lino, ya langi ya ble, ya motane ya pete mpe ya motane makasi, mpe atongaki bililingi ya basheribe na likolo na yango.
He made the veil of blue, purple, and crimson yarn and fine linen, with cherubim woven into it.
15 Na liboso ya Tempelo ya Yawe, atongaki makonzi mibale oyo ezalaki na bametele pene zomi na sambo na bosanda. Na likolo ya likonzi moko na moko, ezalaki na moto ya bametele mibale na basantimetele tuku mitano.
In front of the temple he made two pillars, which together were thirty-five cubits high, each with a capital on top measuring five cubits.
16 Asalaki bililingi ya basinga elingama-lingama lokola basheni mpe atiaki yango na mito ya makonzi; asalaki lisusu bililingi ya bambuma nkama moko ya grenade, mpe akangisaki yango na bililingi ya basinga elingama-lingama lokola basheni.
He made interwoven chains and put them on top of the pillars. He made a hundred pomegranates and fastened them into the chainwork.
17 Mpe atongaki makonzi liboso ya Tempelo ya Yawe: moko na ngambo ya loboko ya mwasi, mpe mosusu, na ngambo ya loboko ya mobali. Abengaki likonzi ya ngambo ya loboko ya mwasi Yakini, mpe oyo ya ngambo ya loboko ya mobali, Boazi.
Then he set up the pillars in front of the temple, one on the south and one on the north. The pillar on the south he named Jachin, and the pillar on the north he named Boaz.
