2 Ebyomumirembe 4

1 Yazimba ekyoto eky’ekikomo, obuwanvu bwakyo mita mwenda, n’obugazi bwakyo mita mwenda, ng’obugulumivu bwakyo mita nnya n’ekitundu.

Also, he made a brass altar of twenty cubits in length, and of twenty cubits in width, and of ten cubits in height,

2 N’akola Ennyanja ensaanuuse, nga neekulungirivu, nga ya mita nnya n’ekitundu okuva ku mugo okutuuka ku mugo, ng’obugulumivu eri mita bbiri ne desimoolo ssatu, ate ng’obwetooloovu eri mita kkumi na ssatu n’ekitundu.

as well as a molten sea of ten cubits from brim to brim, round in its circumference. It had five cubits in height, and a line of thirty cubits went around it on all sides.

3 Wansi waakyo waaliyo ebifaananyi by’ente ennume nga mumbe, nga buli emu eri kitundu kya mita obuwanvu, era nga zikyetoolodde. Ebifaananyi byasaanuusibwanga mu nnyiriri bbiri bbiri, ekidiba bwe kyasaanuusibwanga.

Also, under it there was the likeness of oxen. And certain engravings encircled the cavity of the sea, along ten cubits of the outside, as if in two rows. Now the oxen were molten.

4 Ennyanja yatuulanga ku bifaananyi by’ente ennume kkumi na bbiri, essatu nga zitunuulira obukiikakkono, n’essatu endala nga zitunuulira ebugwanjuba, n’essatu endala nga zitunuulira obukiikaddyo, n’essatu endala nga zitunuulira ebuvanjuba. Ennyanja yatuulanga ku zo waggulu, n’amagulu gaazo ag’emabega nga gatunudde munda, wakati waayo.

And the sea itself was placed upon the twelve oxen, three of which were looking toward the north, and another three toward the west, then another three toward the south, and the three that remained toward the east, having the sea imposed upon them. But the posteriors of the oxen were toward the interior, under the sea.

5 Obukwafu bwayo bwali nga luta, n’omugo gwayo ng’omugo gw’ekikopo, n’okufaanana ng’efaanana ng’ekimuli ky’amalanga. Yatekebwangamu lita emitwalo mukaaga.

Now its thickness had the measure of the palm of a hand, and its brim was like the lip of a cup, or like the outturned petal of a lily. And it held three thousand measures.

6 N’akolayo ne bensani kkumi ez’okwolezangamu, etaano n’azissa ku luuyi olw’obukiikaddyo, n’ettaano endala n’azissa ku luuyi olw’obukiikakkono. Omwo mwe mwanyumungulizibwanga ebintu ebyakozesebwanga mu kiseera eky’okuwaayo ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa, naye ng’Ennyanja ya bakabona okuginaabirangamu.

Also, he made ten basins. And he placed five on the right, and five on the left, so that they might wash in them all the things that they were to offer as holocausts. But the priests were to be washed in the sea.

7 N’akola ebikondo eby’ettaala ez’omukono kkumi nga bya zaabu, ng’ekiragiro kyabyo bwe kyali, n’abiteeka mu yeekaalu, ebitaano ku luuyi olw’obukiikaddyo, n’ebitaano ebirala ku luuyi olw’obukiikakkono.

Then he also made ten gold lampstands, according to the form by which they had been ordered to be made. And he set them in the temple, five on the right, and five on the left.

8 N’akola n’emmeeza kkumi, n’aziteeka mu yeekaalu, etaano ku luuyi olw’obukiikaddyo, n’etaano endala ku luuyi olw’obukiikakkono. N’akola ne bbakuli ezikozesebwa okumansira kkumi nga za zaabu.

Moreover, there were also ten tables. And he placed them in the temple, five on the right, and five on the left. Also, there were one hundred gold bowls.

9 N’akola oluggya lwa bakabona, n’oluggya olunene ddala, n’enzigi ez’oluggya, n’enzigi n’azisaaba n’ekikomo.

Then too, he made the court of the priests, and a great hall, and doors in the hall, which he covered with brass.

10 Ennyanja n’agiteeka ku luuyi olw’obukiikaddyo obw’ebuvanjuba mu yeekaalu.

Now he placed the sea on the right side, facing the east, toward the south.

11 N’akola n’ensuwa, n’ebisena, ne bbakuli. Awo Kulamu n’amaliriza omulimu ogwali gumuwereddwa kabaka Sulemaani ku yeekaalu ya Katonda:

Then Hiram made cooking pots and hooks and bowls. And he completed every work of the king in the house of God,

12 empagi bbiri, n’emitwe egifaanana ng’ebakuli ku mitwe gy’empagi, n’ebitimba bya mirundi ebiri nga bibeera ku mitwe egyali ku mpagi,

that is, the two pillars, and the crossbeams, and the heads, and something like a little net, which would cover the heads above the crossbeams,

13 n’amakomamawanga ebikumi bina obw’ebitimba biri ebibiri, buli kitimba nga kirina ennyiriri bbiri ez’amakomamawanga, nga zitimbye emitwe gy’empagi.

and also four hundred pomegranates, and two little nets, so that two rows of pomegranates were joined to each net, which would cover the crossbeams and the heads of the pillars.

14 N’akola n’ebiyimirirwako, n’amabensani gaakwo,

He also made bases; and basins that he placed upon the bases;

15 n’Ennyanja n’ebifaananyi by’ente ennume emumbe,

one sea, and twelve oxen under the sea;

16 n’ensuwa, n’ebisena, n’ewuuma ez’ennyama, n’ebintu byonna ebigenderako. Ebintu byonna Kulamu bye yakolera Kabaka Sulemaani ku lwa yeekaalu ya Mukama yabizigula n’ekikomo.

and cooking pots and hooks and bowls. Hiram, his father, made all the vessels for Solomon, in the house of the Lord, from the purest brass.

17 Kabaka yalagira babisaanuusize mu lusenyi lwa Yoludaani, awali ettaka ery’ebbumba wakati w’e Sukkosi n’e Zereda.

The king cast these in the region near the Jordan, in the clay soil between Succoth and Zeredah.

18 Sulemaani n’akola ebintu ebyo byonna nga bingi nnyo nnyini, n’obuzito bw’ekikomo mwe byakolebwa ne butamanyibwa.

Now the multitude of the vessels was innumerable, so much so that the weight of the brass was unknown.

19 Sulemaani n’akola ebintu byonna ebyole mu yeekaalu ya Katonda: ekyoto ekya zaabu, n’emmeeza okwabanga emigaati egy’okulaga,

And Solomon made all the vessels for the house of God, and the gold altar, and the tables upon which were the bread of the presence;

20 n’ebikondo eby’ettaala ez’omukono nga bya zaabu, wamu ne ttaala zaabyo, okwakiranga mu maaso g’awaayimirirwanga okwogera, ng’ekiragiro bwe kyali,

and also, of the purest gold, the lampstands with their lamps, to shine before the oracle, according to the rite;

21 n’ebimuli, ne ttaala, ne wuuma nga byonna zaabu ntuukirivu,

and certain flowers, and lamps, and gold tongs. All these were made from the purest gold.

22 n’ebisalako ebisirinza, ne bensani, ne bbakuli ez’okumansira akaloosa, ne fulampeni nga bya zaabu ennongoose, n’enzigi za yeekaalu, n’enzigi ez’omunda mu Kifo Ekitukuvu Ennyo, n’enzigi ez’ekisenge ekinene, nga byonna bya zaabu.

Also, the vessels for the perfumes, and the censers, and the bowls, and the little mortars were from the purest gold. And he engraved the doors of the inner temple, that is, for the Holy of Holies. And the doors of the outer temple were of gold. And so, every work was completed that Solomon made in the house of the Lord.
