2 Beresosɛm 4
1 Salomo san yɛɛ kɔbere mfrafrae afɔremuka a ne tenten yɛ anammɔn aduasa, ne trɛw yɛ anammɔn aduasa saa ara, na ne sorokɔ yɛ anammɔn dunum.
He made a bronze altar twenty cubits long, twenty cubits wide, and ten cubits high.
2 Afei, ɔyɛɛ nsukorade kɛse kurukuruwa bi a efi ano kɔka ano yɛ anammɔn dunum. Wɔtoo no din Po. Na emu dɔ yɛ anammɔn ason ne fa, na ne dantaban yɛ anammɔn aduanan anum.
He also made the Sea of cast metal. It was circular in shape, measuring ten cubits from rim to rim, five cubits in height, and thirty cubits in circumference.
3 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.
Below the rim, figures of oxen encircled it, ten per cubit all the way around the Sea, cast in two rows as a part of the Sea.
4 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.
The Sea stood on twelve oxen, three facing north, three facing west, three facing south, and three facing east. The Sea rested on them, with all their hindquarters toward the center.
5 Po no afasu mu piw yɛ bɛyɛ nsateaa abiɛsa, na nʼano no trɛw te sɛ kuruwa a ɛsɛ sukooko nhwiren a apae. Na Po no tumi kora nsu gyare mpem dunsia ne ahannum.
It was a handbreadth thick, and its rim was fashioned like the brim of a cup, like a lily blossom. It could hold three thousand baths.
6 Ɔyɛɛ guasɛn du a wɔkora nsu a wɔde hohoro afɔrebɔde ho. Na emu anum wɔ Po no anafo fam na anum wɔ atifi fam. Asɔfo no de, na Po no ankasa mu nsu na na wɔde hohoro wɔn ho, na wɔmmfa guasɛn no mu nsu no bi.
He also made ten basins for washing and placed five on the south side and five on the north. The parts of the burnt offering were rinsed in them, but the priests used the Sea for washing.
7 Salomo de sikakɔkɔɔ yɛɛ akaneadua du, sɛnea wɔkyerɛɛ no sɛ ɔnyɛ no no, de sisii Asɔredan no mu. Wɔde mu anum sisi bɛn anafo fam ɔfasu, na wɔde mu anum a aka no nso sisi bɛn atifi fam ɔfasu no.
He made ten gold lampstands according to their specifications and placed them in the temple, five on the south side and five on the north.
8 Afei, ɔyɛɛ apon du de sisii Asɔredan no mu. Wɔde mu anum sisii anafo fam ɔfasu no anim, na wɔde mu anum a aka no nso sisii atifi fam ɔfasu no anim. Afei, ɔyɛɛ sikakɔkɔɔ guasɛn ɔha.
Additionally, he made ten tables and placed them in the temple, five on the south side and five on the north. He also made a hundred gold bowls.
9 Salomo sii adiwo maa asɔfo no, san sii adiwo kɛse bi wɔ Asɔredan no mfikyiri. Ɔyɛɛ apon totoo adiwo akwan no ano, na ɔde kɔbere mfrafrae duraa ho.
He made the courtyard of the priests and the large court with its doors, and he overlaid the doors with bronze.
10 Wɔde Po no sii anafo fam ne apuei fam afasu ahyiae no twɔtwɔw so hɔ.
He put the Sea on the south side, at the southeast corner.
11 Huram-Abi yɛɛ nkuku, nsofi ne guasɛn a ɛho hia nyinaa. Nea ɔhene Salomo kyerɛɛ Huram-Abi sɛ ɔnyɛ wɔ Onyankopɔn Asɔredan no ho no nyinaa no, ɔyɛe.
Additionally, Huram made the pots, shovels, and sprinkling bowls. So Huram finished the work that he had undertaken for King Solomon in the house of God:
12 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,
the two pillars; the two bowl-shaped capitals atop the pillars; the two sets of network covering both bowls of the capitals atop the pillars;
13 ne 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).
the four hundred pomegranates for the two sets of network (two rows of pomegranates for each network covering both the bowl-shaped capitals atop the pillars);
14 Ɔyɛɛ nsu nteaseɛnam a guasɛn no sisi so,
the stands; the basins on the stands;
15 Po no ne anantwi sɛso dumien a wɔhyɛ ase,
the Sea; the twelve oxen underneath the Sea;
16 nkuku, nsofi, nam nnarewa ne nneɛma a ɛkeka ho nyinaa. Huram-Abi de kɔbere mfrafrae a wɔabere ho na ɛyɛɛ saa nneɛma yi nyinaa maa Awurade Asɔredan no, sɛnea Ɔhene Salomo hyɛɛ no no.
and the pots, shovels, meat forks, and all the other articles. All these objects that Huram-abi made for King Solomon for the house of the LORD were of polished bronze.
17 Ɔhene no ma woguu no wɔ kankua a na ɛwɔ Yordan tataw a na ɛwɔ Sukot ne Sereda ntam no so.
The king had them cast in clay molds in the plain of the Jordan between Succoth and Zeredah.
18 Kɔbere mfrafrae a wɔde dii dwuma no dodow nti, wɔantumi anhu emu duru ano.
Solomon made all these articles in such great abundance that the weight of the bronze could not be determined.
19 Na Salomo yɛɛ nneɛma a wɔde siesie Onyankopɔn Asɔredan no mu nyinaa: sikakɔkɔɔ afɔremuka; apon a wɔde Daa Daa Brodo gu so;
Solomon also made all the furnishings for the house of God: the golden altar; the tables on which was placed the Bread of the Presence;
20 kanea nnua ne nʼakanea a wɔde sikakɔkɔɔ ayɛ a ɛbɛhyerɛn wɔ Kronkron mu Kronkron no anim sɛnea wɔakyerɛ no;
the lampstands of pure gold and their lamps, to burn in front of the inner sanctuary as prescribed;
21 nhwiren a wɔde siesie, akanea ne adabaw a wɔde sikakɔkɔɔ ankasa na ɛyɛɛ ne nyinaa;
the flowers, lamps, and tongs of gold—of purest gold;
22 akanea adabaw, guasɛn, nyowa ne nkankyee a wɔnoa mu, ne nyinaa yɛ sikakɔkɔɔ ankasa; apon a wosisii wɔ ɔkwan a ɛkɔ Kronkron mu Kronkron ne nea ɛkɔ Asɔredan no dan kɛse mu no, wɔde sikakɔkɔɔ na eduraduraa ho nyinaa.
the wick trimmers, sprinkling bowls, ladles, and censers of purest gold; and the gold doors of the temple: the inner doors to the Most Holy Place as well as the doors of the main hall.
