2 Crónicas 3
1 Entonces Salomón comenzó a construir el Templo del Señor en Jerusalén, en el monte Moriah, donde el Señor se apareció a su padre David. Este era el lugar que David había dispuesto: la antigua era de Ornán el jebuseo.
Then Solomon began to build the house of YHWH at Jerusalem on Mount Moriah, where he appeared to David his father, at the place that David had designated, on the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
2 Salomón comenzó la construcción el segundo día del segundo mes de su cuarto año como rey.
And he began to build in the second month, in the fourth year of his reign.
3 El tamaño de los cimientos que Salomón puso para el Templo de Dios era de sesenta codos de largo y veinte de ancho, (según la antigua medida de codos).
Now these are the foundations which Solomon laid for the building of God's house. The length, using the former standard measure, was one hundred three feet and four inches, and the breadth was thirty-four feet and five inches, and its height was fifty-one feet and eight inches.
4 El pórtico que corría a lo ancho del Templo tenía veinte codos de largo y veinte codos de altura. Cubrió el interior del pórtico con oro puro.
The porch that was in front of the house was the same as the width of the house, thirty-four feet and five inches, and the depth was seventeen feet and three inches; and he overlaid it on the inside with pure gold.
5 Recubrió la sala principal con ciprés recubierto de oro fino, con imágenes de palmeras y cadenas.
The greater house he made a ceiling with fir wood, which he overlaid with fine gold, and ornamented it with palm trees and chains.
6 Decoró el Templo con hermosas gemas y con oro que importó de Parvaim.
He garnished the house with precious stones for beauty: and the gold was gold of Parvaim.
7 Cubrió de oro las vigas, los umbrales, las paredes y las puertas del Templo, y esculpió querubines en las paredes.
He overlaid also the house, the beams, the thresholds, and its walls, and its doors, with gold; and engraved cherubim on the walls.
8 Hizo que la sala del Lugar Santísimo se correspondiera con la anchura del Templo: veinte codos de largo y veinte de ancho. Cubrió el interior con seiscientos talentos de oro fino.
He made the most holy house: its length, according to the breadth of the house, was thirty-four feet and five inches, and its breadth thirty-four feet and five inches; and he overlaid it with fine gold, amounting to six hundred talents.
9 El peso de los clavos era de un siclo por cada cincuenta siclos de oro.
The weight of the nails was fifty shekels of gold. He overlaid the upper rooms with gold.
10 Hizo para el Lugar Santísimo dos querubines de madera cubiertos de oro.
In the most holy house he made two cherubim of sculptured work; and he overlaid them with gold.
11 La envergadura de los querubines juntos era de veinte codos. Un ala del primer querubín medía cinco codos y tocaba una de las paredes del Templo, mientras que su otra ala, también de cinco codos, tocaba el segundo querubín.
The wings of the cherubim were thirty-four feet and five inches: the wing of the one was eight feet and seven inches, reaching to the wall of the house; and the other wing was eight feet and seven inches, reaching to the wing of the other cherub.
12 Del mismo modo, una de las alas del segundo querubín medía cinco codos y tocaba una de las paredes del Templo, mientras que su otra ala, que también medía cinco codos, tocaba al primer querubín.
The wing of the other cherub was eight feet and seven inches, reaching to the wall of the house; and the other wing was eight feet and seven inches, joining to the wing of the other cherub.
13 Así que la envergadura de estos querubines juntos era de veinte codos. Estaban de pie, de cara a la sala principal.
The wings of these cherubim were extended thirty-four feet and five inches: and they stood on their feet, and their faces were toward the house.
14 Hizo el velo de bordado azul, púrpura y carmesí sobre lino fino, con imágenes de querubines.
He made the veil of blue, and purple, and crimson, and fine linen, and ornamented it with cherubim.
15 Hizo dos columnas para la fachada del Templo, de treinta y cinco codos, cada una con un capitel de cinco codos de altura.
Also he made before the house two pillars sixty feet and three inches high, and the capital that was on the top of each of them was eight feet and seven inches.
16 Hizo cadenas como en el Lugar Santísimo y las colocó encima de las columnas. También hizo cien granadas ornamentales y las fijó a cada cadena.
He made chains in the inner sanctuary, and put them on the tops of the pillars; and he made one hundred pomegranates, and put them on the chains.
17 Colocó las columnas frente al Templo, una al sur y otra al norte. A la columna del sur le puso el nombre de Jaquín, y a la del norte el de Booz.
He set up the pillars before the temple, one on the right hand, and the other on the left; and called the name of that on the right hand Jakin, and the name of that on the left Boaz.
