建造圣殿(A)

所罗门在耶路撒冷,在耶和华向他父亲大卫显现过的摩利亚山上,就是在耶布斯人阿珥楠的禾场上,大卫预备的地方,开工建造耶和华的殿。 所罗门执政后第四年二月初二开始建造。 所罗门建造 神殿宇的根基是这样:按古时的尺寸,长二十七公尺,宽九公尺。 殿前走廊长九公尺,与殿的宽度相等;高九公尺(“高九公尺”原文作“高一百二十”;现参照古译本修译);里面贴上纯金。 大殿的墙都盖上松木,又贴上精金,又在上面刻上棕树和链子。 又用宝石装饰殿墙,十分华美;金子都是巴瓦音的金子。 正殿和殿的栋梁、门槛、墙壁和门扇,都贴上金子;墙上刻上基路伯。

建造至圣所(B)

他又建造了至圣所,长九公尺,和殿的宽度相等,宽度也是九公尺;里面都贴上精金,共用了二十公吨金子。 钉子共重五百七十克金子。阁楼也贴上金子。

10 在至圣所里,雕刻了两个基路伯,都包上金子。 11 两个基路伯的翅膀共长九公尺;一个基路伯的一边翅膀长两公尺两公寸,触着殿墙;另一边翅膀也长两公尺两公寸,和另一个基路伯的翅膀相接。 12 另一个基路伯的一边翅膀也长两公尺两公寸,触着殿墙;另一边的翅膀也长两公尺两公寸,和前一个基路伯的翅膀相接。 13 这两个基路伯的翅膀都张开,共长九公尺;这两个基路伯都面向殿内站立。 14 所罗门又用蓝色紫色朱红色线和细麻做幔子,上面绣上基路伯。

建造两根柱子(C)

15 在殿的前面又做了两根柱子,高十五公尺半,每根柱上面的柱顶,高两公尺两公寸。 16 又做了像项链(按照《马索拉文本》,“像项链”作“在内殿”,意思不明确,可能是“像项链”的误写)的链子,安放在柱头上;又做了石榴一百个,安放在链子上。 17 他把这两根柱子立在殿前,一根在左面,一根在右面;右面的叫雅斤,左面的叫波阿斯。

The Temple Construction in Jerusalem

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

Dimensions and Materials of the Temple

Now these are the [c]foundations which (C)Solomon laid for building the house of God. The length in cubits, according to the old standard, was [d]sixty cubits, and the width, twenty cubits. The porch which was in front of the house (D)was as long as the width of the house, [e]twenty cubits, and the height [f]twenty; and inside he overlaid it with pure gold. He overlaid (E)the [g]main room with juniper wood and overlaid it with fine gold; and he [h]ornamented it with palm trees and chains. Further, he overlaid the house [i]with precious stones; and the gold was gold from Parvaim. (F)He also overlaid the house with gold—the beams, the thresholds, and its walls and doors; and he (G)carved cherubim on the walls.

Then he made (H)the [j]room of the Most Holy Place: its length across the width of the house was [k]twenty cubits, and its width was twenty cubits; and he overlaid it with fine gold, amounting to [l]six hundred talents. The weight of the nails was fifty shekels of gold. He also overlaid (I)the upper rooms with gold.

10 (J)Then he made two [m]sculptured cherubim in the room of the Most Holy Place and overlaid them with gold. 11 The wingspan of the [n]cherubim was twenty [o]cubits; the wing of one, of five cubits, touched the wall of the house, and its other wing, of five cubits, touched the wing of the other cherub. 12 The wing of the other cherub, of five cubits, touched the wall of the house; and its other wing, of five cubits, was attached to the wing of the [p]first cherub. 13 The wings of these cherubim extended twenty cubits, and they stood on their feet [q]facing the main room. 14 (K)He made the veil of violet, purple, crimson, and fine linen, and he worked cherubim into it.

15 (L)He also made two pillars for the front of the house, thirty-five cubits [r]high, and the capital on the top of each was five cubits. 16 He made chains in the inner sanctuary and placed them on the tops of the pillars; and he made a hundred pomegranates and placed them on the chains. 17 (M)He erected the pillars in front of the temple, one on the right and the other on the left, and named the one on the right Jachin and the one on the left Boaz.

Salomo bouwt de tempel

Toen begon Salomo met het bouwen van de tempel in Jeruzalem op de berg Moria, waar de Heer naar zijn vader David was gekomen. Hij bouwde hem op de plek die David daarvoor had uitgezocht: op de dorsvloer van Ornan.[a] Hij begon met bouwen op de tweede dag van de tweede maand. Hij was toen vier jaar koning van Israël.

De tempel zag er als volgt uit: 60 el (27 m) lang, 20 el (9 m) breed, gemeten met de oude el.[b] De voorhal aan de voorkant van de voorzaal van de tempel was 20 el (9 m) lang, dus net zo breed als de tempel, en 120 el (55 m) hoog. De binnenkant van de hal bedekte hij helemaal met zuiver goud. De binnenkant van de voorzaal[c] bedekte hij helemaal met cipressenhout. Over het hout kwam een dun laagje zuiver goud. In het goud graveerde hij palmbomen en gedraaide kettingen. Ook werd de zaal versierd met edelstenen. Het goud was afkomstig uit Parvaïm. Zo bedekte hij de voorzaal, de balken, de drempels en deurposten, de wanden en deuren met goud. Op de wanden graveerde hij engelen.

Verder maakte hij de achterzaal: de allerheiligste kamer. Die was net zo breed als de voorzaal, namelijk 20 el. Hij bedekte hem helemaal met 600 talenten zuiver goud (1800 kilo). Van 50 sikkels goud (550 gram) maakte hij spijkers om alles mee vast te zetten. Ook de bovenkamers bedekte hij met goud. 10 In de allerheiligste kamer maakte hij van hout twee engelen en bedekte ze met goud. 11 De vleugels van de engelen waren samen 20 el (9 m) lang. 12 Van elke engel raakte de ene vleugel de muur en de andere vleugel raakte de vleugel van de andere engel. Elke vleugel was 5 el (2,25 m). 13 Samen waren de vleugels dus 20 el (9 m) lang. De engelen stonden op hun voeten, met hun gezicht naar de ingang. 14 Hij weefde een gordijn van blauw, rood en paars draad en fijn linnen. Daarop werden engelen afgebeeld. 15 Ook maakte hij voor de tempel twee pilaren van 35 el (15,75 m) hoog. Daarop stond een sierstuk van 5 el (2,25 m) hoog. 16 Hij maakte gedraaide kettingen (net zulke als hij in de allerheiligste kamer gegraveerd had) rond de bovenrand met daaraan 100 gouden granaatappels. 17 Hij zette de pilaren vóór de tempel neer, de één rechts van de ingang en de ander links van de ingang. De rechter pilaar noemde hij Jachin (= 'vastzetten'), de linker pilaar noemde hij Boaz (= 'kracht').

Solomon Builds the Temple(A)

Then Solomon began to build(B) the temple of the Lord(C) in Jerusalem on Mount Moriah, where the Lord had appeared to his father David. It was on the threshing floor of Araunah[a](D) the Jebusite, the place provided by David. He began building on the second day of the second month in the fourth year of his reign.(E)

The foundation Solomon laid for building the temple of God was sixty cubits long and twenty cubits wide[b](F) (using the cubit of the old standard). The portico at the front of the temple was twenty cubits[c] long across the width of the building and twenty[d] cubits high.

He overlaid the inside with pure gold. He paneled the main hall with juniper and covered it with fine gold and decorated it with palm tree(G) and chain designs. He adorned the temple with precious stones. And the gold he used was gold of Parvaim. He overlaid the ceiling beams, doorframes, walls and doors of the temple with gold, and he carved cherubim(H) on the walls.

He built the Most Holy Place,(I) its length corresponding to the width of the temple—twenty cubits long and twenty cubits wide. He overlaid the inside with six hundred talents[e] of fine gold. The gold nails(J) weighed fifty shekels.[f] He also overlaid the upper parts with gold.

10 For the Most Holy Place he made a pair(K) of sculptured cherubim and overlaid them with gold. 11 The total wingspan of the cherubim was twenty cubits. One wing of the first cherub was five cubits[g] long and touched the temple wall, while its other wing, also five cubits long, touched the wing of the other cherub. 12 Similarly one wing of the second cherub was five cubits long and touched the other temple wall, and its other wing, also five cubits long, touched the wing of the first cherub. 13 The wings of these cherubim(L) extended twenty cubits. They stood on their feet, facing the main hall.[h]

14 He made the curtain(M) of blue, purple and crimson yarn and fine linen, with cherubim(N) worked into it.

15 For the front of the temple he made two pillars,(O) which together were thirty-five cubits[i] long, each with a capital(P) five cubits high. 16 He made interwoven chains[j](Q) and put them on top of the pillars. He also made a hundred pomegranates(R) and attached them to the chains. 17 He erected the pillars in the front of the temple, one to the south and one to the north. The one to the south he named Jakin[k] and the one to the north Boaz.[l]
