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 also an altar of copper, twenty cubits being its length, and twenty cubits its breadth, and ten cubits its height.
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 made also the molten sea, being ten cubits from the one brim to the other, rounded all about, and it was five cubits in height: and a line of thirty cubits did encompass it round about.
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.
And likenesses of oxen were under it, encompassing it all round about, ten in a cubit, encircling the sea round about: the oxen were in two rows [and were] cast [with it], when it was cast.
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.
It was standing upon twelve oxen, three looking toward the north, and three looking toward the west, and three looking toward the south, and three looking toward the east; and the sea was resting above upon them, and all their hinder parts were inward.
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.
And its thickness was a hand's breadth, and its brim like the brim of a cup, with lily-buds; and it could hold and contain 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 made also ten lavers; and he placed five on the right hand, and five on the left, to wash in them: what belonged to the burnt-offering they rinsed off at them; but the sea was for the priests to wash in.
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.
And he made ten candlesticks of gold according to their prescribed manner: and he placed [them] in the temple, five on the right side, and five on the left.
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.
He made also ten tables, and he set them in the temple, five on the right side, and five on the left. And he made a hundred bowls of gold.
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.
And he made the court of the priests, and the great out-court, and doors for the out-court, and their doors he overlaid with copper.
10 Wɔde Po no sii anafo fam ne apuei fam afasu ahyiae no twɔtwɔw so hɔ.
And the sea he placed on the right side toward the east, opposite to the south.
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.
And Churam made the pots, and the shovels, and the basins. And Churam made an end of doing the work which he made 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, and the bowls, and the capitals on the top of the two pillars, and the two networks to cover the bowl-shaped capitals which were on the top of 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).
And the four hundred pomegranates for the two networks, two rows of pomegranates for each network, to cover the two bowl-shaped capitals which were upon the front of the pillars.
14 Ɔyɛɛ nsu nteaseɛnam a guasɛn no sisi so,
The bases also did he make, and the lavers made he upon the bases.
15 Po no ne anantwi sɛso dumien a wɔhyɛ ase,
The one sea, and the twelve oxen under it,
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 also, and the shovels, and the forks, and all their instruments, did Churam-Abiv make for king Solomon for the house of the Lord, of polished copper.
17 Ɔhene no ma woguu no wɔ kankua a na ɛwɔ Yordan tataw a na ɛwɔ Sukot ne Sereda ntam no so.
In the plain of the Jordan did the king cast them, in the clay-ground between Succoth and Zeredathah.
18 Kɔbere mfrafrae a wɔde dii dwuma no dodow nti, wɔantumi anhu emu duru ano.
And Solomon made all these vessels in very great abundance; for the weight of the copper was not inquired into.
19 Na Salomo yɛɛ nneɛma a wɔde siesie Onyankopɔn Asɔredan no mu nyinaa: sikakɔkɔɔ afɔremuka; apon a wɔde Daa Daa Brodo gu so;
And Solomon made all the vessels that pertained to the house of God; and the altar of gold also, and the tables whereon the show-bread [was set];
20 kanea nnua ne nʼakanea a wɔde sikakɔkɔɔ ayɛ a ɛbɛhyerɛn wɔ Kronkron mu Kronkron no anim sɛnea wɔakyerɛ no;
And the candlesticks with their lamps, to light them after the prescribed manner before the debir, of pure gold.
21 nhwiren a wɔde siesie, akanea ne adabaw a wɔde sikakɔkɔɔ ankasa na ɛyɛɛ ne nyinaa;
And the flowers, and the lamps, and the tongs, were of gold, the purest of 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.
And the knives, and the basins, and the spoons, and the censers were of pure gold; and the entrance of the house, its inner doors for the most holy place, and the doors of the house of the temple, were of gold.
