2 Berɛsosɛm 4
1 Salomo sane yɛɛ kɔbere mfrafraeɛ afɔrebukyia a ne tentene yɛ anammɔn aduasa, ne tɛtrɛtɛ yɛ anammɔn aduasa saa ara, na ne ɔsorokɔ 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 nsukoradeɛ kɛseɛ kurukuruwa bi a ɛfiri ano kɔka ano yɛ anammɔn dunum. Wɔtoo no edin Ɛpo. Na emu tenten yɛ anammɔn nson ne fa, na ne kanko mu yɛ anammɔn aduanan enum.
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 Ɛpo no wɔ nsɛsodeɛ a ɛte sɛ anantwie a wɔatwa afa ano no ase ahyia. Anammɔn baako biara mu no, na anantwie sɛso nsia wɔ so a wɔagu ama afra nsukoradeɛ 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 Ɛpo no si nsiaseɛ a ɛyɛ kɔbere mfrafraeɛ anantwie dumienu sɛso so. Na wɔn nyinaa ani kyerɛkyerɛ abɔntene. Mmiɛnsa ani kyerɛ atifi fam. Mmiɛnsa ani kyerɛ atɔeɛ fam. Mmiɛnsa kyerɛ anafoɔ fam, ɛnna mmiɛnsa nso ani kyerɛ apueeɛ 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 Ɛpo no afasuo mu pipiripie yɛ bɛyɛ nsateakwaa mmiɛnsa, na nʼano no ntrɛmu te sɛ bonsua, na na ɛte ɛsɛ sukooko nhwiren a apae. Na Ɛpo no tumi kora nsuo gyare mpem dunsia ne ahanum.
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 dwaresɛn edu a wɔkora nsuo a wɔde hohoro afɔrebɔdeɛ ho. Na emu enum wɔ Ɛpo no anafoɔ fam na enum wɔ atifi fam. Asɔfoɔ no deɛ, na Ɛpo no ankasa mu nsuo na na wɔde hohoro wɔn ho, na wɔmmfa dwaresɛn no mu nsuo 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 nkaneadua edu, sɛdeɛ wɔkyerɛɛ no sɛ ɔnyɛ noɔ no, de sisii Asɔredan no mu. Wɔde emu enum sisi bɛnee anafoɔ fam fasuo, na wɔde emu enum a aka no nso sisi bɛnee atifi fam ɔfasuo 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 apono edu de sisii Asɔredan no mu. Wɔde emu enum sisii anafoɔ fam ɔfasuo no anim, na wɔde emu enum a aka no nso sisii atifi fam ɔfasuo no anim. Afei, ɔyɛɛ sikakɔkɔɔ dwaresɛn 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 adihɔ maa asɔfoɔ no, sane sii adihɔ kɛseɛ bi wɔ Asɔredan no mfikyire. Ɔyɛɛ apono totoo adihɔ akwan no ano, na ɔde kɔbere mfrafraeɛ 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 Ɛpo no sii anafoɔ fam ne apueeɛ fam afasuo ahyiaeɛ no twɛtwɛwa so hɔ.
And the sea he placed on the right side toward the east, opposite to the south.
11 Huram-Abi yɛɛ nkukuo, nsofi ne dwaresɛn a ɛho hia nyinaa. Deɛ ɔhene Salomo kyerɛɛ Huram-Abi sɛ ɔnyɛ wɔ Onyankopɔn Asɔredan no ho no nyinaa, ɔyɛeɛ.
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 mmienu, aduntire a wɔayɛ no sɛ asansuo mmienu a ɛsisi afadum no atifi, nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn mmienu wɔde asiesie aduntire 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 ateaa nsɛso ahanan a ɛsensɛn nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn a ɛgu aduntire no so (ateaa a wɔahyehyɛ no ntentenesoɔ mmienu a ebiara sa nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn a ɛsensɛn aduntire a ɛwɔ 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 nsuo nteaseɛnam a dwaresɛn no sisi so,
The bases also did he make, and the lavers made he upon the bases.
15 Ɛpo no ne anantwie sɛso dumienu a wɔhyɛ aseɛ,
The one sea, and the twelve oxen under it,
16 nkukuo, nsofi, ɛnam nnarewa ne nneɛma a ɛkeka ho nyinaa. Huram-Abi de kɔbere mfrafraeɛ a wɔabere ho na ɛyɛɛ saa nneɛma yi nyinaa maa Awurade Asɔredan no, sɛdeɛ 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 ma wɔguu no kankua a na ɛwɔ Yordan bɔnhwa a na ɛwɔ Sukot ne Saretan ntam no mu.
In the plain of the Jordan did the king cast them, in the clay-ground between Succoth and Zeredathah.
18 Kɔbere mfrafraeɛ a wɔde dii dwuma no dodoɔ enti, wɔantumi anhunu 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 afɔrebukyia; apono a wɔde Hyiadan mu Burodo no 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 sɛdeɛ 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, nkanea ne afagya a wɔde sikakɔkɔɔ amapa na ɛyɛɛ no nyinaa;
And the flowers, and the lamps, and the tongs, were of gold, the purest of gold;
22 nkanea akapɛ, dwaresɛn, nyowaa ne nkyɛnsee a wɔnoa mu no nyinaa yɛ sikakɔkɔɔ amapa; apono a wɔtintim wɔ ɛkwan a ɛkɔ Kronkron mu Kronkron ne deɛ ɛkɔ Asɔredan no dan kɛseɛ mu no, wɔde sikakɔkɔɔ na ɛduraa 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.
