2 Meʻa Hokohoko 4
1 Naʻa ne ngaohi foki ha feilaulauʻanga ʻaki ʻae palasa, ko e hanga ʻe fāngofulu ʻa hono lōloa, mo e hanga ʻe fāngofulu ʻa hono māukupu, pea ko e hanga ʻe uofulu ʻa hono māʻolunga.
Moreover he made an altar of bronze; its length was twenty cubits, and its width was twenty cubits. Its height was ten cubits.
2 Pea naʻa ne ngaohi ha tukunga vai lahi ʻaki ʻae palasa naʻe haka, ko e hanga ʻe uofulu ʻae ʻataʻatā ʻo hono ngutu ʻi hono fuofua takatakai, pea ko hono māʻolunga ko e hanga ʻe hongofulu, pea ko hono fua takatakai ʻaki ʻae afo ko e hanga ia ʻe onongofulu.
He also made the round sea of cast metal, ten cubits from brim to brim. Its height was five cubits, and the sea was thirty cubits in circumference.
3 Pea naʻe ʻi lalo ʻi ai ʻae fakatātā ki he fanga pulu, ʻaia naʻe tuʻu takatakai ʻi ai: ko e hongofulu ʻi he hanga ʻe ua, ʻo takatakai hake ʻi he tukunga vai lahi. Naʻe haka mo fakafuofua ʻae ʻotu fanga pulu ʻe ua, ʻo fai fakataha mo hono haka mo hono fakafuofua ʻoʻona.
Under the brim encircling the sea were bulls, ten to each cubit, cast in one piece with the sea when the sea itself was cast.
4 Naʻe tuʻu ia ki he fanga pulu ʻe hongofulu ma ua, naʻe hanga ʻae tolu ki he tokelau, pea hanga ʻae tolu ki he feituʻu lulunga, pea hanga ʻae tolu ki he tonga, pea hanga ʻae tolu ki he feituʻu hahake: pea naʻe hilifaki ʻae tukunga vai lahi ki ʻolunga ʻi ai, pea naʻe hanga ʻa honau tuʻungaiku kotoa pē ki loto.
The large basin known as “The Sea” was set upon twelve oxen, three looking toward the north, three looking toward the west, three looking toward the south, and three looking toward the east. “The Sea” was set on top of them, and all their hindquarters were toward the inside.
5 Pea ko hono matolu ʻo ia ko e nima ʻe taha, pea naʻe ngaohi ʻa hono ngutu ke hangē ko e ngutu ʻo ha ipu inu ʻaki ʻae fisiʻiʻakau ʻoe lili: pea ko hono fonu ʻo ia ko e kaloni ʻe taha mano mo e ono afe.
“The Sea” was as thick as the width of a hand, and its brim was forged like the brim of a cup, like a lily blossom. “The Sea” held three thousand baths of water.
6 naʻa ne ngaohi foki ʻae ʻaiʻanga vai ʻe hongofulu, mo ne tuku ʻae nima ki he nima toʻomataʻu, mo e nima ki he toʻohema koeʻuhi ke fai kaukau ki ai: ʻilonga ʻae ngaahi meʻa naʻe ʻatu ʻi he ngaahi feilaulau tutu naʻe fufulu ia ʻi ai; ka ko e fuʻu tukunga vai lahi naʻe tuku ia ke kaukau ai ʻae kau taulaʻeiki.
He made also ten basins for washing things; he put five on the south side, and five on the north; items used in performing the burnt offering were to be washed in them. The large basin known as “The Sea” was used by the priests for them to wash.
7 Pea naʻa ne ngaohi ʻae ngaahi tuʻunga maama ʻe hongofulu ʻo fakatatau mo honau anga, mo ne tuku ia ʻi he faletapu, ko e nima ki he potu toʻomataʻu pea ko e nima ki he toʻohema.
He made the ten lampstands of gold that were made from the instructions for their design; he placed them in the temple, five on the right hand, and five on the left.
8 Naʻa ne ngaohi foki ʻae palepale ʻe hongofulu, mo ne ʻai ia ʻi he faletapu, ko e nima ki he potu toʻomataʻu, mo e nima ki he toʻohema. Pea naʻa ne ngaohi ʻae ngaahi ipu luoluo ʻe teau ʻaki ʻae koula.
He made ten tables and placed them in the temple, five on the right side, and five on the left. He made one hundred basins of gold.
9 Pea naʻa ne ngaohi foki ʻae lotoʻā ʻoe kau taulaʻeiki, pea mo e lotoʻā lahi, mo e ngaahi matapā ki he lotoʻā, pea naʻa ne ʻaofi ʻae ngaahi matapā ʻo ia ʻaki ʻae palasa.
Furthermore he made the courtyard of the priests, and the great court and the doors for the court and overlaid their doors with bronze.
10 Pea naʻa ne fokotuʻu ʻae fuʻu tukunga vai ki he potu toʻomataʻu ʻoe faʻahi ki he feituʻu hahake, ʻo hanga tonu atu ki he feituʻu tonga.
He placed the basin known as “The Sea” on the east side of the temple, facing toward the south.
11 Pea naʻe ngaohi ʻe Helami ʻae ngaahi kulo, mo e ngaahi huo, pea mo e ngaahi ipu luoluo. Pea naʻe fakaʻosi ʻe Helami ʻae ngāue ʻaia naʻe tuku ke ne fai ki he tuʻi ko Solomone maʻae fale ʻoe ʻOtua:
Huram made the pots, the shovels, and the sprinkling bowls. So Huram finished the work that he did for King Solomon in the house of God:
12 ʻIo, ʻae pou ʻe ua, mo e teunga fuopotopoto, mo e ʻulu naʻe tuʻu ʻi he ʻuluʻi pou ʻe ua, pea mo e teunga fihifihi ke ʻufiʻufi ʻaki ʻae teunga fuopotopoto ʻe ua ʻi he ʻuluʻi pou:
the two pillars, the bowl-like capitals that were on top of the two pillars, and the two sets of decorative latticework to cover the two bowl-like capitals that were on top of the pillars.
13 Mo e pomikanite ʻe fāngeau ʻi he ngāue fihifihi ʻe ua: ko e taki ua ʻae ʻotu pomikanite ʻi he teunga fihifihi taki taha, ke ʻufiʻufi ʻae teunga fuopotopoto ʻoe ʻuluʻi pou ʻaia naʻe ʻi he ongo pou.
He had made the four hundred pomegranates for the two sets of decorative latticework: two rows of pomegranates for each set of latticework to cover the two bowl-like capitals that were on the pillars.
14 Naʻa ne ngaohi foki ʻae ngaahi tuʻunga, pea naʻe hilifaki ʻae ngaahi ʻaiʻanga vai ki he ngaahi tuʻunga;
He also made the stands and the basins to go on the stands;
15 Mo e fuʻu tukunga vai ʻe taha, mo e fanga pulu ʻe hongofulu ma ua ki lalo ʻi ai.
one sea and the twelve bulls under it,
16 Ko e ngaahi kulo foki, mo e ngaahi huo, mo e ngaahi meʻa hikofi kakano, pea mo honau nāunau fulipē, naʻe ngaohi ʻe Helami ko ʻene tamai ki he tuʻi ko Solomone, maʻae fale ʻo Sihova, ʻaki ʻae palasa ngingila.
also the pots, shovels, meat forks, and all the other implements that Huram-Abi made of polished bronze for King Solomon, for the house of Yahweh.
17 Naʻe haka mo fakafuofua ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni ʻe he tuʻi, ʻi he kelekele ʻumea naʻe ʻi he vahaʻa ʻo Sukote pea mo Selitata.
The king had cast them in the plain of the Jordan, in the clay ground between Succoth and Zarethan.
18 Ko ia, naʻe ngaohi ʻae ngaahi nāunau ni ʻe Solomone ʻo lahi ʻaupito: he naʻe ʻikai faʻa lau ʻae mamafa ʻoe palasa.
Thus Solomon made all these vessels in great abundance; indeed, the weight of the bronze could not be known.
19 Pea naʻe ngaohi ʻe Solomone ʻae ngaahi ipu kotoa pē maʻae fale ʻoe ʻOtua, mo e feilaulauʻanga koula foki mo e ngaahi palepale ʻaia naʻe tuku ki ai ʻae mā ʻoe ʻao:
Solomon made all the furnishings that were in the house of God, the golden altar also, and the tables on which the bread of the presence was to be placed;
20 Pea mo e ngaahi tuʻunga maama foki mo honau ngaahi maama, koeʻuhi ke ulo ʻo hangē ko hono anga ʻi he ʻao ʻoe folofolaʻanga, ko e koula moʻoni ia.
the lampstands with their lamps, that were designed to burn before the inner room—these were made of pure gold;
21 Pea mo e ngaahi fisiʻiʻakau, mo e ngaahi foʻi tuʻungamaama, mo e meʻa hikofi, naʻa ne [ngaohi ia kotoa pē ]ʻaki ʻae koula, ʻio, ʻae koula haohaoa:
and the flowers, the lamps, and the tongs, of gold, pure gold.
22 Mo e helekosi maama, mo e ngaahi ipu luoluo, mo e ngaahi sēpuni, mo e ngaahi ʻaiʻanga afi, ko e koula haohaoa ia: pea ko e hūʻanga ki he fale, mo e matapā ki loto ki he potu toputapu lahi, pea mo e ngaahi matapā ʻoe faletapu, naʻe ʻoe koula ia.
Also the lamp trimmers, basins, spoons, and incense burners were all made of pure gold. As for the entrance into the house, its inner doors into the most holy place and the doors of the house, that is, of the temple, were made of gold.
