建造聖殿

3 所羅門在耶路撒冷的摩利亞山上動工興建耶和華的殿，殿址在耶布斯人阿珥楠的麥場，就是大衛指定的地方。耶和華曾在那裡向他父親大衛顯現。 2 所羅門在執政第四年二月二日動工建殿。 3 按照古時的尺度，他建造的上帝殿宇的地基長二十七米，寬九米。 4 殿前的門廊長九米，與殿的寬度一樣，高九米[a]，裡面都貼上純金。 5 大殿裡鑲上松木板，貼上純金，又刻上棕樹和鏈子。 6 所羅門用寶石和巴瓦音的純金裝飾殿。 7 殿的棟樑、牆壁、門檻和門扇也都貼上金子；牆上還刻上基路伯天使。

8 所羅門又動工建造至聖所，長九米，寬九米，與殿的寬度一樣，裡面共貼了二十一噸純金。 9 所用的金釘重六百克。樓房也都貼上了金子。 10 他又在至聖所製造兩個基路伯天使的翅膀，包上金子。 11-13 兩個基路伯天使的翅膀共九米長，每個翅膀長二點二五米。兩個基路伯天使面向大殿站立，他們展開的翅膀共九米長，各有一個翅膀觸到殿牆，一個翅膀互相連接。 14 他用藍色、紫色和朱紅色的線以及細麻織成幔子，並在上面繡上基路伯天使。

15 所羅門在殿前造了兩根柱子，每根高八米，上面的柱冠高二點二五米。 16 他也造了鏈子[b]，裝飾在柱冠上。他又造了一百個石榴，安在鏈子上。 17 這兩根柱子一左一右立在殿的入口處，他給右邊那根取名叫雅斤，給左邊那根取名叫波阿斯。

New King James Version

Solomon Builds the Temple(A)

3 Now (B)Solomon began to build the house of the Lord at (C)Jerusalem on Mount Moriah, where [a]the Lord had appeared to his father David, at the place that David had prepared on the threshing floor of (D)Ornan[b] the Jebusite. 2 And he began to build on the second day of the second month in the fourth year of his reign.

3 This is the foundation (E)which Solomon laid for building the house of God: The length was sixty cubits (by cubits according to the former measure) and the width twenty cubits. 4 And the (F)vestibule that was in front of [c]the sanctuary was twenty cubits long across the width of the house, and the height was [d]one hundred and twenty. He overlaid the inside with pure gold. 5 (G)The larger [e]room he (H)paneled with cypress which he overlaid with fine gold, and he carved palm trees and chainwork on it. 6 And he decorated the house with precious stones for beauty, and the gold was gold from Parvaim. 7 He also overlaid the house—the beams and doorposts, its walls and doors—with gold; and he carved cherubim on the walls.

8 And he made the (I)Most Holy Place. Its length was according to the width of the house, twenty cubits, and its width twenty cubits. He overlaid it with six hundred talents of fine gold. 9 The weight of the nails was fifty shekels of gold; and he overlaid the upper (J)area with gold. 10 (K)In the Most Holy Place he made two cherubim, fashioned by carving, and overlaid them with gold. 11 The wings of the cherubim were twenty cubits in overall length: one wing of the one cherub was five cubits, touching the wall of the room, and the other wing was five cubits, touching the wing of the other cherub; 12 one wing of the other cherub was five cubits, touching the wall of the room, and the other wing also was five cubits, touching the wing of the other cherub. 13 The wings of these cherubim spanned twenty cubits overall. They stood on their feet, and they faced inward. 14 And he made the (L)veil of blue, purple, crimson, and fine linen, and wove cherubim into it.

15 Also he made in front of the [f]temple (M)two pillars [g]thirty-five cubits [h]high, and the capital that was on the top of each of them was five cubits. 16 He made wreaths of chainwork, as in the inner sanctuary, and put them on top of the pillars; and he made (N)one hundred pomegranates, and put them on the wreaths of chainwork. 17 Then he (O)set up the pillars before the temple, one on the right hand and the other on the left; he called the name of the one on the right hand [i]Jachin, and the name of the one on the left [j]Boaz.

Evangelical Heritage Version

The Construction of the Temple

3 Then Solomon began to build the House of the Lord at Jerusalem on Mount Moriah, where the Lord had appeared to his father David. He constructed it on the site that David had specified,[a] namely, the threshing floor of Ornan[b] the Jebusite. 2 He began building on the second day of the second month in the fourth year of his reign.

The Sanctuary

3 Now these are the dimensions of the foundations which Solomon laid for the building of God’s house. The length was ninety feet and the width thirty feet.[c] 4 The porch[d] that was in front of the temple building was thirty feet wide, the same as the width of the building, and it was thirty feet high.[e]

He overlaid the inside with pure gold. 5 He lined the larger front room of the building with fir paneling,[f] which he overlaid with fine gold and decorated with palm trees and chains. 6 He beautified the house with dazzling precious stones. The gold was gold of Parvaim.[g] 7 He also overlaid the house, the beams and rafters, the thresholds and door frames, its walls, and its doors with gold, and he carved cherubim on the walls.

8 He made the Most Holy Place. It was thirty feet by thirty feet, the same dimensions as the width of the building, and he overlaid it with six hundred talents of fine gold.[h] 9 The weight of the gold nails was more than a pound.[i] He overlaid the upper areas with gold.

The Cherubim

10 In the Most Holy Place he made two carved cherubim that were overlaid with gold. 11 The total wingspan of the cherubim was thirty feet. One wing of the first cherub was seven and a half feet long and touched the outer wall of the house. The other wing was also seven and a half feet long and touched the wing of the other cherub. 12 One wing of the other cherub was seven and a half feet long and touched the outer wall of the house. The other wing was also seven and a half feet long and touched the wing of the first cherub. 13 The wings of these cherubim spread out over thirty feet. They stood upright on their feet, and they faced toward the front of the sanctuary building.[j] 14 He made the veil of blue, purple, and crimson material and fine white linen, and he decorated it with cherubim.

Pillars

15 For the front of the house he made two pillars with a combined height of fifty-three feet,[k] and the capitals that were on top of each of them were seven and a half feet tall. 16 He made chains for the inner sanctuary[l] and also put them on the tops of the pillars. He also made one hundred pomegranates and put them on the chains. 17 He set up the pillars in front of the temple building,[m] one on the south side and the other on the north. He named the one on the south Jakin[n] and the one on the north Boaz.[o]

Footnotes

  1. 2 Chronicles 3:1 Or prepared
  2. 2 Chronicles 3:1 In 2 Samuel 24 he is called Araunah or Aravnah.
  3. 2 Chronicles 3:3 The measurements are given in cubits of the old measure, a much disputed term. The translation uses 18-inch cubits. Using a long cubit of 20+ inches, the temple would be 105 feet by 35 feet.
  4. 2 Chronicles 3:4 Or entry hall. It is uncertain if this was an unroofed porch or an enclosed vestibule.
  5. 2 Chronicles 3:4 The Hebrew text reads one hundred twenty cubits (one hundred eighty feet), but the Greek and Syriac texts and the data concerning the height of the pillars for the porch all support a height of twenty cubits (thirty feet). Perhaps the Hebrew word amwt (cubit) was accidentally changed into the word mawt (hundred) by the inversion of two letters. The account in Kings does not give the height of the porch.
  6. 2 Chronicles 3:5 According to 1 Kings 6:15, the floor was fir and the walls were cedar. This verse in Chronicles does not mention this distinction.
  7. 2 Chronicles 3:6 The meaning or location of the Hebrew term Parvaim is unknown.
  8. 2 Chronicles 3:8 Because of widely varying estimates for the weight of a talent (68 pounds to 130 pounds) most translations retain the term talents. The smallest estimated weight of the gold would be about 20 tons. The notes of this translation use the estimate of 75 pounds for a talent.
  9. 2 Chronicles 3:9 Literally fifty shekels
  10. 2 Chronicles 3:13 It is uncertain whether this means they faced toward the front entrance of the building (what we would call the front of a church when we are standing outside) or whether they faced toward the back of the building and thus toward the Lord (what we would call the front of a church when we are standing inside).
  11. 2 Chronicles 3:15 The word combined is not in the Hebrew text, but the parallel text in 1 Kings 7:15 indicates that this is the combined height of the two pillars.
  12. 2 Chronicles 3:16 See 1 Kings 6:21, which states that the chains were across the front of the inner room.
  13. 2 Chronicles 3:17 Here the Hebrew word hekal refers to the whole temple building. Sometimes it refers only to the front room.
  14. 2 Chronicles 3:17 Jakin means he establishes.
  15. 2 Chronicles 3:17 Boaz means in him is strength.
