2 Crónicas 3
1 Entonces Salomón comenzó la construcción de la casa del Señor en el monte Moriah en Jerusalén, donde su padre David había visto al Señor, en el lugar que David había preparado para ello, donde trillaba el grano Ornán, el Jebuseo.
Then Solomon began to build the house of the LORD 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 El edificio se inició en el segundo mes del cuarto año de su gobierno.
And he began to build in the second month, in the fourth year of his reign.
3 Y Salomón puso la base de la casa de Dios en posición; según la medida anterior, tenía sesenta codos de largo y veinte codos de ancho.
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 Y el pórtico frente a la casa tenía veinte codos de largo, tan ancho como la casa, y ciento veinte codos de altura, todos revestidos con el mejor oro.
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 Y la casa mayor estaba cubierta con madera de ciprés, revestida con el mejor oro y adornada con diseños 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 Y la casa se hizo hermosa con piedras de gran valor, y el oro era de Parvaim.
He garnished the house with precious stones for beauty: and the gold was gold of Parvaim.
7 Toda la casa estaba chapada en oro, los soportes, los escalones, las paredes y las puertas; y las paredes estaban adornadas con querubines.
He overlaid also the house, the beams, the thresholds, and its walls, and its doors, with gold; and engraved cherubim on the walls.
8 E hizo el Lugar Santísimo; tenía veinte codos de largo y veinte codos de ancho, como la casa más grande, y estaba revestido por todas partes con el mejor oro; Se usaron seiscientos talentos para ello.
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 Y se usaron cincuenta siclos de oro para los clavos. Tenía todas las habitaciones altas chapadas en oro.
The weight of the nails was fifty shekels of gold. He overlaid the upper rooms with gold.
10 Y en el Lugar Santísimo mandó esculpir dos querubines, cubriéndolos de oro.
In the most holy house he made two cherubim of sculptured work; and he overlaid them with gold.
11 Sus alas extendidas tenían veinte codos de ancho; Un ala, de cinco codos de largo, tocando la pared de la casa, y la otra, del mismo tamaño, que se encuentra con el ala del otro 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 Y de la misma manera, las alas de la otra, de cinco codos de largo, se estiraron, una tocando la pared y la otra encontrándose con el ala del 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 Sus alas extendidas tenían veinte codos de ancho; se colocaron en posición vertical sobre sus pies, frente a la parte interior de la casa.
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 E hizo el velo de azul, púrpura y rojo, del mejor lino, con bordados de querubines.
He made the veil of blue, and purple, and crimson, and fine linen, and ornamented it with cherubim.
15 Y delante de la casa hizo dos pilares, treinta y cinco codos de alto, con coronas en la parte superior de ellos, cinco codos de alto.
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 E hizo cadenas, como adornos para las columnas, y las puso en la parte superior de los pilares, y un centenar de granadas en las cadenas.
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 Puso los pilares frente al Templo, uno en el lado derecho y otro en el izquierdo, nombrando el de Jaquin a la derecha y el de Boaz a la izquierda.
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.
