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.

Then he made an altar of bronze, twenty cubits long, twenty cubits wide, and ten cubits high.

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.

Also he made the molten sea of ten cubits from brim to brim. It was round, five cubits high, and 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 it was the likeness of oxen, which encircled it, for ten cubits, encircling the sea. The oxen were in two rows, cast when it 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.

It stood on twelve oxen, three looking toward the north, three looking toward the west, three looking toward the south, and three looking toward the east; and the sea was set on them above, and all their hindquarters were inward.

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.

It was a handbreadth thick. Its brim was made like the brim of a cup, like the flower of a lily. It received and held three thousand baths.

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 also made ten basins, and put five on the right hand and five on the left, to wash in them. The things that belonged to the burnt offering were washed in them, but the sea was for the priests to wash in.

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 lamp stands of gold according to the ordinance concerning them; and he set 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 also 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 court of the priests, the great court, and 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 set the sea on the right side of the house eastward, 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 basins. So Huram finished doing the work that he did for King Solomon in God’s house:

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 bowls, the two capitals which were on the top of the pillars, the two networks to cover the two bowls of the capitals that were on the 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.

and the four hundred pomegranates for the two networks—two rows of pomegranates for each network, to cover the two bowls of the 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 bases, and he made the basins on the bases—

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 oxen 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.

Huram-abi also made the pots, the shovels, the forks, and all its vessels for King Solomon, for the LORD’s house, of bright bronze.

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 cast them in the plain of the Jordan, in the clay ground between Succoth and Zeredah.

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, so that the weight of the bronze could not be determined.

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 vessels that were in God’s house: the golden altar, the tables with the show bread on them,

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.

and the lamp stands with their lamps to burn according to the ordinance before the inner sanctuary, 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 that was purest 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.

and the snuffers, the basins, the spoons, and the fire pans of pure gold. As for the entry of the house, its inner doors for the most holy place and the doors of the main hall of the temple were of gold.
