1 Salomo san sii ɔno ankasa nʼahemfi. Na mfirihyia dumiɛnsa na ɔde wiee ahemfi no si.
Bvt Salomon was building his owne house thirteene yeeres, and finished all his house.
2 Na wɔfrɛ Salomo adan no mu baako Lebanon Kwae Ahemfi. Na ne tenten mu yɛ anammɔn ɔha ne aduonum. Ne trɛw yɛ anammɔn aduɔson anum, na ne sorokɔ yɛ anammɔn aduanan anum. Na sida nsamso no mpuran no deda sida fadum anan a wɔatoto ahyehyɛ no tee no so.
He built also an house called the forest of Lebanon, an hundreth cubites long, and fiftie cubites broad, and thirtie cubites hie, vpon foure rowes of cedar pillars, and cedar beames were layed vpon the pillars.
3 Na wɔabɔ sida nsɛmso a etweri mpuran aduanan anum a ɛno nso gugu afadum a wɔatoto, ahyehyɛ no ntentenso abiɛsa mu a, dunum na ɛwɔ ntentenso baako biara mu.
And it was couered aboue with cedar vpon the beames, that lay on the fourtie and fiue pillars, fifteene in a rowe.
4 Afasu no fa biara, mfɛnsere sesa so abiɛsa abiɛsa a edidi nhwɛanim.
And the windowes were in three rowes, and windowe was against windowe in three rankes.
5 Apon no akwan nyinaa, wɔayɛ no ahinanan abiɛsa abiɛsa a edidi nhwɛanim.
And all the doores, and the side postes with the windowes were foure square, and windowe was ouer against windowe in three rankes.
6 Osii afadum asa a ne tenten mu yɛ anammɔn aduɔson anum, na ne trɛw yɛ anammɔn aduanan anum. Na ntwironoo a wɔakuru so wɔ anim a esi afadum so.
And he made a porche of pillars fiftie cubites long, and thirtie cubites broade, and the porch was before them, euen before them were thirtie pillars.
7 Na ahengua asa a na wonim no sɛ atemmu asa nso wɔ hɔ. Ɛhɔ na na Salomo tena di nsɛm. Na wɔde sida asam mu fi fam, de kosi nsamso so.
Then he made a porch for the throne, where he iudged, euen a porch of iudgement, and it was sieled with cedar from pauement to pauement.
8 Faako a na Salomo te no twa asennii a ɛwɔ asa no akyi no ho hyia. Ɔkwan koro no ara so na wɔfa de sii. Osii ne dan no sɛso de maa Farao babea a na ɔyɛ ne yerenom no mu baako.
And in his house, where he dwelt, was an other hall more inwarde then the porche which was of the same worke. Also Salomon made an house for Pharaohs daughter (whom he had taken to wife) like vnto this porche.
9 Abo akɛse a wɔatwa no pɛpɛɛpɛ a ne bo yɛ den yiye na wɔde sii saa adan no.
All these were of costly stones, hewed by measure, and sawed with sawes within and without, from the foundation vnto the stones of an hand breadth, and on the outside to the great court.
10 Abo a wɔde too ɔdan no fapem no tenten mu yɛ anammɔn dunum, na bi nso tenten mu yɛ anammɔn dumien.
And the foundation was of costly stones, and great stones, euen of stones of ten cubites, and stones of eight cubites.
11 Abo a ne bo yɛ den yiye a wɔde sii afasu no nso, na wɔasusuw, atwa no pɛpɛɛpɛ a sida mpuran nso ka ho.
Aboue also were costly stones, squared by rule, and boardes of cedar.
12 Adiwo kɛse no afasu no nso, wɔto de sida mpuran ntaaso baako biara too abo a wɔatwa ntaaso abiɛsa biara so, te sɛ afasu a ɛwɔ Awurade Asɔredan mfimfini mu hɔ a ntwironoo kwan ka ho.
And the great court round about was with three rowes of hewed stones, and a rowe of cedar beames: so was it to ye inner court of the house of the Lord, and to the porche of the house.
13 Ɔhene Salomo bisaa ɔbarima bi a ofi Tiro a ne din de Huram ase sɛ omfi Tiro mmra,
Then King Salomon sent, and set one Hiram out of Tyrus.
14 efisɛ na ɔyɛ odwumfo a onim kɔbere mfrafrae ho adwinne yiye. Na ne fa yɛ Israelni, efisɛ ne na yɛ okunafo a ofi Naftali abusua mu. Na nʼagya nso yɛ adwuma wɔ baabi a wɔnan nnade wɔ Tiro. Enti ɔbɛyɛɛ adwuma maa ɔhene Salomo.
He was a widowes sonne of the tribe of Naphtali, his father being a man of Tyrus, and wrought in brasse: he was full of wisedome, and vnderstanding, and knowledge to worke all maner of worke in brasse: who came to King Salomon, and wrought all his worke.
15 Huram twaa kɔbere mfrafrae afadum abien a emu biara sorokɔ yɛ anammɔn aduonu ason, na ne afefarem nso yɛ anammɔn dunwɔtwe.
For he cast two pillars of brasse: ye height of a pillar was eighteene cubites, and a threede of twelue cubites did compasse either of ye pillars.
16 Ɔde kɔbere mfrafrae yɛɛ afadum no apampam ntaaso a emu biara sorokɔ yɛ anammɔn ason ne fa.
And he made two chapiters of molten brasse to set on the tops of the pillars: the height of one of the chapiters was fiue cubites, and the height of the other chapiter was fiue cubites.
17 Ntaaso biara nso, wɔde ɔtan a wɔanwen ason ne nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn na ahyehyɛ ho.
He made grates like networke, and wrethen worke like chaynes for the chapiters that were on the top of the pillars, euen seuen for the one chapiter, and seuen for the other chapiter.
18 Na ɔyɛɛ atoaa nsɛso a ɛsesa so tee abien bebaree ɔtan a wɔanwen no de siesiee ntaaso a ɛwɔ afadum no atifi.
So he made the pillars and two rowes of pomegranates round about in the one grate to couer the chapiters that were vpon the top. And thus did he for the other chapiter.
19 Ntaaso a ɛwɔ afadum a ɛwɔ ntwironoo no mu no, na wɔayɛ no sɛ sukooko a ne sorokɔ yɛ anammɔn asia.
And the chapiters that were on the toppe of the pillars were after lilye worke in ye porch, foure cubites.
20 Ntaaso biara a na ɛwɔ afadum abien no so no nso, na atoaa nsɛso ahannu a wɔahyehyɛ no tee abien atwa ho ahyia a, ɛyɛ kurukuruwa a ɛtoa ɔtan a wɔanwen no so.
And the chapiters vpon the two pillars had also aboue, ouer against the belly within the networke pomegranates: for two hudreth pomegranates were in the two rankes about vpon either of the chapiters.
21 Huram de afadum no sisii Asɔredan no kwan ano a baako kyerɛ anafo fam na baako nso kyerɛ atifi fam. Ɔtoo baako a ɛkyerɛ anafo fam no din Yakin (Ɔde tim) na nea ɛkyerɛ atifi fam no, ɔtoo no Boas (Ne mu na ahoɔden wɔ).
And he set vp the pillars in the porche of the Temple. And when hee had set vp the right pillar, he called the name thereof Iachin: and when he had set vp the left pillar, he called the name thereof Boaz.
22 Afadum no ntaaso no, wɔyɛɛ no sɛ sukooko. Saa na ɔyɛ de wiee afadum no ho adwuma.
And vpon the top of the pillars was worke of lilyes: so was the workemanship of the pillars finished.
23 Afei, Huram twaa nsukorade kurukuruwa kɛse bi a efi ano kɔka ano no yɛ anammɔn dunum. Wɔtoo ne din Po. Na emu tenten yɛ anammɔn ason ne fa, nʼafefare mu nso yɛ anammɔn aduanan anum.
And he made a molten sea ten cubites wide from brim to brim, rounde in compasse, and fiue cubites hie, and a line of thirtie cubites did compasse it about.
24 Na Po no wɔ nsɛsode a ɛte sɛ anantwi a atwa afa ano no ase ahyia. Anammɔn baako biara mu no, na anantwi sɛso asia wɔ so a wɔagu ama afra nsukorade no.
And vnder the brimme of it were knoppes like wilde cucumers compassing it round about, ten in one cubite, compassing the sea round about: and the two rowes of knoppes were cast, when it was molten.
25 Na Po no si nsiase a ɛyɛ kɔbere mfrafrae anantwi dumien sɛso so. Na wɔn nyinaa ani kyerɛkyerɛ abɔnten. Abiɛsa ani kyerɛ atifi fam. Abiɛsa ani kyerɛ atɔe fam. Abiɛsa kyerɛ anafo fam, na abiɛsa nso ani kyerɛ apuei fam.
It stoode on twelue bulles, three looking towarde the North, and three toward the West, and three toward the South, and three towarde the East: and the sea stoode aboue vpon them, and all their hinder partes were inward.
26 Na Po no afasu mu piw bɛyɛ nsateaato abiɛsa, na ano no trɛw te sɛ kuruwa, na na ɛte sɛ sukooko a apae. Na ebetumi akora nsu bɛyɛ galɔn mpem dubaako.
It was an hand bredth thicke, and the brim thereof was like the worke of the brim of a cup with floures of lilyes: it contained two thousad Baths.
27 Huram san yɛɛ nteaseɛnam du a wɔde twe nsu a emu biara tenten mu yɛ anammɔn asia na ne trɛw mu nso yɛ anammɔn asia, na ne sorokɔ yɛ anammɔn anan ne fa.
And he made tenne bases of brasse, one base was foure cubites long, and foure cubites broad, and three cubites hie.
28 Na sɛnea wɔyɛɛ nteaseɛnam no ne sɛ, ɛwowɔ ntetareho ntrantraa a wɔabram so.
And the worke of the bases was on this maner, They had borders, and the borders were betweene the ledges:
29 Wɔde gyata, anantwi ne kerubim a wɔasen siesiee ntetareho no ne nnade a wɔde bram ɔpon akyi no. Gyata no ne anantwi no so ne wɔn ase na wɔagu nhwiren a wɔahyehyɛ, de asiesie wɔn.
And on the borders that were betweene the ledges, were lyons, bulles and Cherubims: and vpon the ledges there was a base aboue: and beneath the lyons and bulles, were addicions made of thinne worke.
30 Na saa nteaseɛnam no mu biara wɔ kɔbere mfrafrae ntwahonan anan ne kɔbere mfrafrae ntwahodade. Na nteaseɛnam biara twɔtwɔw no wɔ nnyinaso afadum de ma kɔbere mfrafrae nsukorade no; saa nnyinaso no ho na wɔadi nhwiren a wɔahyehyɛ adwinni.
And euery base had foure brasen wheeles, and plates of brasse: and the foure corners had vndersetters: vnder the caldron were vndersetters molten at the side of euery addicion.
31 Nteaseɛnam no biara wɔ nnyinaso kurukuruwa bi wɔ nʼatifi ma nsukorade no. Na ehwirew mu, kɔ soro bɛyɛ ɔnammɔn baako ne fa wɔ teaseɛnam no atifi te sɛ ntaamude kurukuruwa bi. Na ano a abue no yɛ anammɔn abien ne nsateaa abiɛsa. Ɛho no na wɔde nhwiren a wɔahyehyɛ adwinni asiesie. Na nteaseɛnam no ntetareho no yɛ ahinanan na ɛnyɛ kurukuruwa.
And the mouth of it was within the chapiter and aboue to measure by the cubite: for the mouth thereof was round made like a base, and it was a cubite and halfe a cubite: and also vpon the mouth thereof were grauen workes, whose borders were foure square, and not round.
32 Ntetareso no ase na ntwahonan anan a wɔde atoa ntwahodade so a wɔagu ne nyinaa atoa mu ayɛ baako no hyehyɛ. Na efi ntwahonan no dantaban ano kosi ano yɛ anammɔn abien ne nsateaa abiɛsa,
And vnder the borders were foure wheeles, and the axeltrees of the wheeles ioyned to the base: and the height of a wheele was a cubite and halfe a cubite.
33 a na ɛte sɛ teaseɛnam a ɛwɔ ntwahonan abien. Emu ntwahodade, mparow, hankare ne nea ɛhyɛ mfimfini no nyinaa, wɔde kɔbere mfrafrae na ɛyɛe.
And the facion of the wheeles was like the facion of a charet wheele, their axeltrees, and their naues and their felloes, and their spokes were all molten.
34 Na nsusomu nsa anan wowɔ nteaseɛnam no atwɔtwɔw anan no biara so a epuepue fi nteaseɛnam no so.
And foure vndersetters were vpon the foure corners of one base: and the vndersetters thereof were of the base it selfe.
35 Nteaseɛnam no mu biara atifi no na na hankare bi a ne trɛw yɛ nsateaa akron wɔ. Nsusomu no ne nkyɛnkyɛn ntetareho no nso, wɔagu ama ɛne teaseɛnam no atoa mu.
And in the toppe of the base was a rounde compasse of halfe a cubite hie round about: and vpon the toppe of the base the ledges thereof and the borders thereof were of the same.
36 Wɔde kerubim, gyata ne mmedua a wɔasen siesiee ntetareho no ne nnyinaso ahorow no ho baabiara a kwan wɔ. Na wɔagu nhwiren a wɔahyehyɛ atwa ho nyinaa ahyia.
And vpon the tables of the ledges thereof, and on the borders thereof he did graue Cherubims, lions and palmetrees, on the side of euery one, and addicions round about.
37 Nsu nteaseɛnam du no, na ne nyinaa akɛse yɛ pɛ, na ne nyinaa sesɛ, na woguu ne nyinaa wɔ ade koro mu.
Thus made he the tenne bases, They had all one casting, one measure, and one syse.
38 Huram san yɛɛ kɔbere mfrafrae nsukorade du de maa nteaseɛnam no mu biara. Na nsukorade no mu trɛw yɛ anammɔn asia a etumi kora nsu gyare ahannu aduonu.
Then made he ten caldrons of brasse, one caldron conteyned fourty Baths: and euery caldron was foure cubites, one caldron was vpon one base throughout the ten bases.
39 Ɔhyehyɛɛ nsu nteaseɛnam no anum wɔ Asɔredan no anafo fam, na anum nso wɔ atifi fam. Wɔde Po no sii Asɔredan no anafo apuei fam twɔtwɔw so.
And he set the bases, fiue on the right side of the house, and fiue on the left side of the house. And he set the sea on the right side of the house Eastward toward the South.
40 Afei, ɔyɛɛ nkuku, sofi ne nsukorade a ɛho hia. Ne korakora no, Huram wiee biribiara a ɔhene Salomo kyerɛɛ no sɛ ɔnyɛ wɔ Awurade Asɔredan no ho:
And Hiram made caldrons, and besomes, and basens, and Hiram finished all the worke that he made to King Salomon for the house of ye Lord:
41 Afadum abien, afadumti a wɔayɛ no sɛ asuhina abien a esisi afadum no atifi, ntweaban a wɔayɛ no sɛ atena abien a wɔde asiesie afadumti no,
To wit, two pillars and two bowles of the chapiters that were on the toppe of the two pillars, and two grates to couer the two bowles of the chapiters which were vpon the toppe of the pillars,
42 atoaa nsɛso ahannan a ɛsensɛn nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn a egu ntaaso no so (atoaa a wɔahyehyɛ no ntenten so abien a biara sa nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn a ɛsensɛn ntaaso a egu afadum no atifi no so no),
And foure hundreth pomegranates for the two grates, euen two rowes of pomegranates for euery grate to couer the two bowles of the chapiters, that were vpon the pillars,
43 nsu nteaseɛnam du a nsukorade du sisi so,
And the ten bases, and ten caldrons vpon the bases,
44 Po no ne anantwi dumien a ɛhyehyɛ ase,
And the sea, and twelue bulles vnder that sea,
45 Nkuku, sofi ne nsukorade. Na nkuku ne nkaka a Huram yɛ maa ɔhene Salomo de guu Awurade Asɔredan mu no nyinaa yɛ kɔbere mfrafrae a wɔapɔw ho.
And pottes, and besomes and basens: and all these vessels, which Hiram made to King Salomon for the house of the Lord, were of shining brasse.
46 Ɔhene no ma woguu no wɔ kankua a na ɛwɔ Yordan tataw a na ɛwɔ Sukot ne Saretan ntam no so.
In the plaine of Iorden did the King cast them in clay betweene Succoth and Zarthan.
47 Salomo ankari nkuku ne nkaka no, efisɛ na ɛdɔɔso dodo; na kɔbere mfrafrae no mu duru nso, wɔantumi ankari.
And Salomon left to weigh all the vessels because of the exceeding aboundance, neyther could the weight of the brasse be counted.
48 Na Salomo de saa nneɛma yi nyinaa siesiee Awurade Asɔredan no mu: sikakɔkɔɔ afɔremuka, sikakɔkɔɔ kyerɛwpon a Ne Daa Nwɔhɔ brodo gu so,
So Salomon made all the vessels that perteyned vnto the house of the Lord, the golden altar, and the golden table, whereon the shewbread was,
49 sikakɔkɔɔ kaneadua a anum sisi anafo fam, na anum sisi atifi fam wɔ kronkron mu kronkron anim hɔ; nhwiren a wɔde asiesie hɔ, akanea ne mpiakyiri a ne nyinaa yɛ sikakɔkɔɔ,
And the candlestickes, fiue at the right side, and fiue at the left, before the oracle of pure gold, and the flowres, and the lampes, and the snuffers of golde,
50 nkuruwa, akanea adabaw, nsiso, nsanka ne nkankyee a wɔnoa mu nyinaa yɛ sikakɔkɔɔ nko ara; ɔkwan ano apon a ɛkɔ kronkron mu kronkron ne Asɔredan no mu ne anim nyinaa, wɔde sikakɔkɔɔ duraa ho.
And the bowles, and the hookes, and the basens, and the spoones, and the ashpannes of pure golde, and the hinges of golde for the doores of the house within, euen for the most holy place, and for the doores of the house, to wit, of the Temple.
51 Ɔhene Salomo wiee Awurade asɔredan no ho adwuma nyinaa. Na Salomo de akyɛde a nʼagya Dawid ato din no nyinaa a ɛyɛ dwetɛ, sikakɔkɔɔ ne nkuku ne nkaka ba bɛkoraa wɔ adekoradan mu wɔ Awurade Asɔredan mu hɔ.
So was finished all the worke that King Salomon made for the house of the Lord, and Salomon brought in the things which Dauid his father had dedicated: the siluer and the golde and the vessels, and layed them among the treasures of the house of the Lord.
