2 Berɛsosɛm 3
1 Na Salomo hyɛɛ aseɛ sii Awurade Asɔredan no wɔ Yerusalem Moria bepɔ so a ɛhɔ na Awurade yii ne ho adi kyerɛɛ Salomo agya Ɔhene Dawid no. Wɔsii Asɔredan no wɔ Yebusini Arauna ayuporobea hɔ, beaeɛ a Dawid yi too hɔ no.
Then Solomon began to build the house of the LORD at Jerusalem in mount Moriah, where the LORD appeared to David his father, in the place that David had prepared in the threshingfloor of Ornan the Jebusite.
2 Salomo dii adeɛ no, ne mfeɛ ɛnan so, Adar bosome (bɛyɛ Oforisuo) mu, na wɔhyɛɛ ɛdan no sie ase.
And he began to build in the second day of the second month, in the fourth year of his reign.
3 Na Onyankopɔn Asɔredan no fapem atweeɛmu yɛ anammɔn aduɔkron, ɛnna ne tɛtrɛtɛ mu yɛ anammɔn aduasa.
Now these are the things in which Solomon was instructed for the building of the house of God. The length by cubits after the first measure was sixty cubits, and the breadth twenty cubits.
4 Ntwonoo a ɛwɔ Asɔredan no anim tɛtrɛtɛ yɛ anammɔn aduasa, a ɛne Asɔredan no tɛtrɛtɛ yɛ pɛ. Afasuo a ɛwɔ ntwonoo no mu no nyinaa, wɔde sikakɔkɔɔ adura mu. Ntwonoo no ɔsorokɔ yɛ anammɔn aduasa.
And the porch that was in the front of the house, the length of it was according to the breadth of the house, twenty cubits, and the height was an hundred and twenty: and he overlaid it within with pure gold.
5 Pepeaa nnua na wɔde samm Asɔredan no mu, na wɔde sikakɔkɔɔ amapa guu so, dii mmɛdua ne nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn adwinnie wɔ so.
And the greater house he panelled with fir wood, which he overlaid with fine gold, and set on it palm trees and chains.
6 Aboɔdemmoɔ a ɛyɛ fɛ ne sikakɔkɔɔ a ɛfiri Parwaim na wɔde siesiee Asɔredan no afasuo ho.
And he adorned the house with precious stones for beauty: and the gold was gold of Parvaim.
7 Wɔde sikakɔkɔɔ guu Asɔredan no afasuo, afadum, apono ne aboboano nyinaa ho, na wɔdii Kerubim sɛso adwinnie wɔ afasuo no ho.
He overlaid also the house, the beams, the posts, and the walls of it, and the doors of it, with gold; and engraved cherubim on the walls.
8 Na Kronkron mu Kronkron hɔ tɛtrɛtɛ yɛ anammɔn aduasa te sɛ asɔredan no ara, nʼatweeɛmu nso yɛ anammɔn aduasa. Sikakɔkɔɔ amapa bɛyɛ nkariboɔ tɔno aduonu mmiɛnsa na wɔde guu so.
And he made the most holy house, the length of which was according to the breadth of the house, twenty cubits, and the breadth of it twenty cubits: and he overlaid it with fine gold, amounting to six hundred talents.
9 Sikakɔkɔɔ nnadewa a ebiara kari bɛyɛ gram ahanum ne aduɔson enum na wɔde dii ɛdan no ho dwuma. Sikakɔkɔɔ amapa na wɔde guu soro adan no afasuo ani.
And the weight of the nails was fifty shekels of gold. And he overlaid the upper chambers with gold.
10 Salomo yɛɛ Kerubim sɛso mmienu, de sikakɔkɔɔ amapa guu ho. Wɔde yeinom sisii Kronkron mu Kronkron hɔ.
And in the most holy house he made two cherubim of image work, and overlaid them with gold.
11 Kerubim mmienu no a wɔsisi hɔ no ntaban ka bɔ mu a, ne ntrɛmu yɛ anammɔn aduasa. Kerubim baako ataban baako a ɛpem ɔfasuo no tentene yɛ anammɔn nson ne fa. Ataban baako no nso a ɛyɛ anammɔn nson ne fa no, ɛne Kerubim baako no ataban hyia.
And the wings of the cherubim were twenty cubits long: one wing of the one cherub was five cubits, reaching to the wall of the house: and the other wing was likewise five cubits, reaching to the wing of the other cherub.
12 Saa ara nso na Kerubim a ɔtɔ so mmienu no ataban baako mu ntrɛmu yɛ anammɔn nson ne fa, na ɛpem Asɔredan no ɔfasuo a ɛne ɔfasuo baako no di nhwɛanim. Ataban baako a aka no nso ntrɛmu a ɛyɛ anammɔn nson ne fa no, ɛhyia Kerubim a ɛdi ɛkan no ataban baako.
And one wing of the other cherub was five cubits, reaching to the wall of the house: and the other wing was five cubits also, joining to the wing of the other cherub.
13 Enti, na Kerubim mmienu no ntaban mu ntrɛmu yɛ anammɔn aduasa. Na wɔn nyinaa sisi hɔ a wɔn anim kyerɛ Asɔredan no mu.
The wings of these cherubim spread themselves forth twenty cubits: and they stood on their feet, and their faces were inward.
14 Salomo de ntwamutam a ɔde bibire ne asaawa a ɛberedum ne koogyan ne nwera ayɛ, a wɔanwono Kerubim nsɛsodeɛ agu mu, sɛnee Kronkron mu Kronkron no kwan ano.
And he made the veil of blue, and purple, and crimson, and fine linen, and wrought cherubim on it.
15 Asɔredan no anim, Salomo yɛɛ afadum mmienu a emu biara ɔsorokɔ yɛ anammɔn aduonu nson. Na ntaasoɔ kata emu biara atifi a ɛno nso ɔsorokɔ yɛ anammɔn nson ne fa.
Also he made before the house two pillars of thirty and five cubits high, and the capital that was on the top of each of them was five cubits.
16 Ɔyɛɛ ntweaban nsosɔmu, de siesiee afadum no atifi. Ɔsane yɛɛ ateaa aba nsɛso fɛfɛ de sosɔɔ ntweaban no mu.
And he made chains, as in the inner sanctuary, and put them on the heads of the pillars; and made an hundred pomegranates, and put them on the chains.
17 Afei, ɔde afadum mmienu no sisii Asɔredan no ano ɛkwan ano. Ɔde baako sii ɛkwan no anafoɔ fam no ano, ɛnna ɔde baako nso sii atifi fam. Ɔtoo deɛ ɛwɔ anafoɔ fam no edin Yakin, ɛnna deɛ ɛwɔ atifi fam no, ɔtoo no edin Boas.
And he erected the pillars before the temple, one on the right hand, and the other on the left; and called the name of that on the right hand Jachin, and the name of that on the left Boaz.
