2 Nyakati 4
1 Vivile akatengeneza madhabahu ya shaba; urefu wake ulikuwa mikono ishirini, na upana wake ulikuwa mikono ishirini.
Then he made a brass altar, twenty cubits long, twenty cubits wide and ten cubits high.
2 Pia akatengeneza bahari ya mduara ya chuma cha kuyeyushwa, mikono kumi kutoka ukingo hadi ukingo. Urefu wake kwenda juu ulikuwa mikono mitano, na bahari ilikuwa na mzunguko wa mikono thelatinini.
And he made the great water-vessel of metal, round in form, measuring ten cubits across from edge to edge; it was five cubits high and thirty cubits round.
3 Chini ya kingo kuzunguka bahari kulikuwapo ng'ombe dume, kumi kila mkono,
And under it was a design of flowers all round it, ten to a cubit, circling the water-vessel in two lines; they were made from liquid metal at the same time as the water-vessel.
4 Bahari ilisimama juu ya ng'ombe wa kulima kumi na wawili, watatu wakiangalia kaskazini, watatu wakiangalia magharibi, na watatu wakiangalia kusini, na watatu wakiangalia mashariki. Bahari iliwekwa juu yao, na robo ya sehemu zao za nyuma zote zilikuwa ndani.
It was supported on twelve oxen, three facing to the north, three to the west, three to the south, and three to the east, the water-vessel resting on top of them; their back parts were all turned to the middle of it.
5 Bahari ilikuwa nene kama upana wa mkono, na ukingo wake ulikuwa kama ukingo wa kikombe, kama ua la yungi. Bahari ilikuwa na mabafu elfu tatu ya maji.
It was as thick as a man's open hand, and the edge of it was curved like the edge of a cup, like a lily flower; it would take three thousand baths.
6 Pia akatengeneza birika kumi kwa ajili ya kuoshea vitu; tano akaziweka mkono wa kulia, na tano akaziweka kushoto; vifaa vilivyotumika katika kufanayia sadaka za kuteketezwa zilipaswa kuoshwa ndani ya hizo birika. Bahari, vilevile ilikuwa kwa ajili ya makauhani kuoga humo.
And he made ten washing-vessels, putting five on the right side and five on the left; such things as were used in making the burned offering were washed in them; but the great water-vessel was to be used by the priests for washing themselves.
7 Akatengeza vinara vya taa kumi vya dhahabu ambavyo vilitengenezwa kutokana na maelekezo ya jinsi vilivyopaswa kuwa; akaviweka hekaluni, vitanao mkno wa kulia, na vitano mkono wa kushoto.
And he made the ten gold supports for the lights, as directions had been given for them, and he put them in the Temple, five on the right side and five on the left.
8 Akatengeneza meza kumi na kuziweka hekaluni, tano upande wa kulia, na tano upande wa kushoto. Akatengeneza birika mia moja za dhahabu.
He made ten tables, and put them in the Temple, five on the right side and five on the left. And he made a hundred gold basins.
9 Zaidi ya hayo akatengeneza mahakama ya makuhani na mahakama kuu, na milangu kwa ajili ya mahakama, akaifunika milango yake kwa shaba.
Then he made the open space for the priests, and the great open space and its doors, plating the doors with brass.
10 Akaiweka bahari upande wa kulia wa nyumba, masharika, ikielekea upande wa kusini.
He put the great water-vessel on the right side of the house to the east, facing south.
11 Huramu akayatengeza masufuria, majembe, na mabakuli ya kunyunyizia. Hivyo Huramu akamaliza kazi aliyofanya kwa ajili ya mfalme Selemani katika nyumba ya Mungu:
And Huram made all the pots and the spades and the basins. So he came to the end of all the work he did for King Solomon in the house of God:
12 zile nguzo mbili, taji mfano wa upinde zilizo kuwa juu ya zile nguzo mbili, na nyavu mbili za za mapambo zilizofunika zile taji mbili mfano wa upinde zilizokuwa juu ya zile nguzo.
The two pillars, and the two crowns on the tops of the pillars, and the network covering the two cups of the crowns on the tops of the pillars;
13 Alikuwa ametengeneza makomamanga mia nne kwa ajili ya zile nyavu za mapambo: safu mbili za makomamanga kwa kila wavu ili kufunika vimbe mbili zilizo kuwa juu ya nguzo.
And the four hundred apples for the network, two lines of apples for the network covering the two cups of the crowns on the pillars.
14 Pia akavitengeneza vitako na mabirika juu ya kitako,
And he made the ten bases and the ten washing-vessels which were on the bases;
15 bahari moja na wale ng'ombe kumi na wawili chini yake,
The great water-vessel with the twelve oxen under it.
16 pia masufuria, majembe, nyuma za nyama, na vyombo vingine vyote. Huramu mtaalamu akavifanya kwa ajili ya Mfalme Selemani, kwa ajili ya nyumba ya Yahwe, vya shaba iliyong'arishwa.
All the pots and the spades and the meat-hooks and their vessels, which Huram, who was as his father, made for King Solomon for the house of the Lord, were of polished brass.
17 Mfalme alikuwa amevisubu katika uwanda wa Yordani, katika udongo wa mfinyanzi kati kati ya Sukothi na Sereda.
The king made them of liquid metal in the lowland of Jordan, in the soft earth between Succoth and Zeredah.
18 Hivyo ndivyo Selemani alivyovitengeneza vyombo vyote kwa wingi; kwa kweli, uzito wa shaba haukuweza kujulikana.
So Solomon made all these vessels, a very great store of them, and the weight of the brass used was not measured.
19 Selemani akazitengeza samani zote ambazo zilikuwa kwenye nyumba ya Mungu, pia madhabahu ya dhahabu, na meza ambazo juu yake mkate wa uwepo ulipaswa kuwekwa;
And Solomon made all the vessels used in the house of God, the gold altar and the tables on which the holy bread was placed,
20 vinara pamoja na taa zake, ambazo zilitengezwa ili kumulika mbele ya chumba cha ndani—hivi vilitengenezwa kwa dhahabu halisi;
And the supports for the lights with their lights, to be burning in the regular way in front of the inmost room, of the best gold;
21 na maua, taa, na makoleo, ya dhahabu, dhahabu safi.
The flowers and the vessels for the lights and the instruments used for them, were all of gold; it was the best gold.
22 Pia mikasi ya taa, na mabakuli, vijiko, na vikaango vya sadaka za kuteketezwa vyote vilitengenezwa kwa dhahabu safi. Kuhusu mlanago wa kuingilia kwenye nyumba, milango yake ya ndani kwenye patakatifu pa patakatifu na milango ya nyumba, ambayo ni, ya hekalu, ilitengenezwa kwa dhahabu.
The scissors and the basins and the spoons and the fire-trays, of the best gold; and the inner doors of the house, opening into the most holy place, and the doors of the Temple, were all of gold.
