2 Tantara 3
1 Ary Solomona nanomboka nanao ny tranon’ i Jehovah tany Jerosalema, tao an-tendrombohitra Moria, ilay nisehoan’ i Jehovah tamin’ i Davida rainy, dia ilay namboarina teo amin’ ny fitoerana nofidin’ i Davida teo amin’ ny famoloan’ i Araona Jebosita.
And Solomon began to build the house of the Lord in Jerusalem, in mount Moria, which had been shewn to David his father, in the place which David had prepared in the thrashingfloor of Ornan the Jebusite.
2 Ary nanomboka nanao ny trano izy tamin’ ny andro faharoa tamin’ ny volana faharoa tamin’ ny taona fahefatra nanjakany.
And he began to build in the second month, in the fourth year of his reign.
3 Ary toy izao no nanorenan’ i Solomona ny tranon’ Andriamanitra: Ny lavany, raha araka ny hakiho taloha, dia enim-polo hakiho, ary ny sakany roa-polo hakiho.
Now these are the foundations, which Solomon laid, to build the house of God, the length by the first measure sixty cubits, the breadth twenty cubits.
4 Ary ny amin’ ny lavarangana fidirana izay teo anoloany, ny lavany dia roa-polo hakiho, dia araka ny sakan’ ny trano ihany, ary ny hahavony dia roa-polo amby zato hakiho; ary nopetahany takela-bolamena tsara ny ao anatiny.
And the porch in the front, which was extended in length according to the measure of the breadth of the house, twenty cubits: and the height was a hundred and twenty cubits: and he overlaid it within with pure gold.
5 Ary ny ati-trano lehibe nopetahany hazo kypreso, dia vao nopetahany takela-bolamena tsara ireo ary noravahany hazo rofia sy tongalika.
And the greater house he ceiled with deal boards, and overlaid them with plates of fine gold throughout: and he graved in them palm trees, and like little chains interlaced with one another.
6 Ary noravahany vato soa koa ny trano; ary ny volamena dia volamena avy any Parvaima.
He paved also the floor of the temple with most precious marble, of great beauty.
7 Ary nopetahany takela-bolamena ny trano, dia ny rairainy sy ny tokonany sy ny rindriny ary ny lela-varavarany; ary nosoratany nasiany sarin’ ny kerobima ny rindrina.
And the gold of the plates with which he overlaid the house, and the beams thereof, and the posts, and the walls, and the doors was of the finest: and he graved cherubims on the walls.
8 Ary nanao ny efi-trano masìna indrindra izy: ny lavany dia roa-polo hakiho mifanerana amin’ ny sakan’ ny trano, ary roa-polo hakiho koa ny sakany; ary nopetahany takela-bolamena tsara talenta enin-jato izy
He made also the house of the holy of holies: the length of it according to the breadth of the temple, twenty cubits, and the breadth of it in like manner twenty cubits: and he overlaid it with plates of gold, amounting to about six hundred talents.
9 Ary ny lanjan’ ny hombo volamena dia sekely dimam-polo. Ary ny efi-trano ambony nopetahany volamena koa.
He made also nails of gold, and the weight of every nail was fifty sicles: the upper chambers also he overlaid with gold.
10 Ary tao amin’ ny efi-trano masìna indrindra dia nasiany sarin’ ny kerobima roa, ary nosokiriny no nanaovany azy, dia nopetahany takela-bolamena.
He made also in the house of the holy of holies two cherubims of image work: and he overlaid them with gold.
11 Ny halavan’ ny elatry ny kerobima dia roa-polo hakiho: ny elatry ny anankiray dia dimy hakiho, mipaka amin’ ny rindrina; ary ny elany iray koa dimy hakiho sady mifanendry amin’ ny elatry ny kerobima anankiray;
The wings of the cherubims were extended twenty cubits, so that one wing was five cubits long, and reached to the wall of the house: and the other was also five cubits long, and reached to the wing of the other cherub.
12 ary ny elatry ny kerobima anankiray koa dia dimy hakiho, mipaka amin’ ny rindrina; ary ny elany iray koa dimy hakiho sady mifanendry amin’ ny elatry ny kerobima anankiray.
In like manner the wing of the other cherub, was five cubits long, and reached to the wall: and his other wing was five cubits long, and touched the wing of the other cherub.
13 Nivelatra ny elatr’ ireo kerobima ireo, ka roa-polo hakiho ny halavany; nijoro tamin’ ny tongony, tarehiny nanatrika ny trano.
So the wings of the two cherubims were spread forth, and were extended twenty cubits: and they stood upright on their feet, and their faces were turned toward the house without.
14 Ary izy nanao ny efitra lamba tamin’ ny manga sy volomparasy sy jaky sy rongony fotsy madinika; ary nataony sarin’ ny kerobima ny sorany.
He made also a veil of violet, purple, scarlet, and silk: and wrought in it cherubims.
15 Ary nanao andry roa teo anoloan’ ny trano izy; dimy amby telo-polo hakiho ny hahavony, ary ny kapitaly teo an-tampony dia dimy hakiho ary.
He made also before the doors of the temple two pillars, which were five and thirty cubits high: and their chapiters were five cubits.
16 Ary nanao tongalika tao amin’ ny efitra anatiny izy, ka nataony teo an-tampon’ ny andry ireo; ary nanao sarin’ apongaben-danitra zato izy, ka nataony teo amin’ ny tongalika ireo.
He made also as it were little chains in the oracle, and he put them on the heads of the pillars: and a hundred pomegranates, which he put between the little chains.
17 Ary ny andry natsangany teo anoloan’ ny tempoly, ny iray tamin’ ny ankavanana, ary ny iray tamin’ ny ankavia; ary ny anaran’ ny teo amin’ ny ankavanana nanao ny hoe Jakina, ary ny anaran’ ny teo amin’ ny ankavia kosa natao hoe Boaza.
These pillars he put at the entrance of the temple, one on the right hand, and the other on the left: that which was on the right hand, he called Jachin: and that on the left hand, Boot.
