Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)

聖殿的器具

4 所羅門造了一座銅壇，長九米，寬九米，高四點五米。 2 他又鑄了一個圓形銅海，高二點二五米，直徑四點五米，周長十三點五米。 3 銅海邊緣下方有兩圈牛的圖案，每五十釐米有十頭牛，是鑄銅海的時候鑄上的。 4 有十二頭銅牛馱著銅海，三頭向北，三頭向西，三頭向南，三頭向東，牛尾向內。 5 銅海厚八釐米，邊如杯邊，又如百合花，容量為六萬六千升。 6 他又造了十個盆，五個放右邊，五個放左邊，用來清洗獻燔祭所用之物。但銅海只供祭司沐浴使用。

7 他照著所定的式樣，造了十個金燈臺放在殿裡，五個在右邊，五個在左邊； 8 又造了十張桌子放在殿裡，五個在右邊，五個在左邊；還造了一百個金碗。 9 他又建了祭司院、大院及大院的門，門都包上銅。 10 銅海放在殿的右邊，就是東南方。

11 戶蘭又造了盆、鏟和碗。他為所羅門王完成了上帝殿裡的工作。 12 戶蘭所製造的有：兩根柱子，兩個碗狀的柱冠，兩個裝飾柱冠的網子， 13 用來裝飾碗狀柱冠、安在兩個網子上的四百石榴——每個網子上兩行； 14 盆座及盆座上的盆； 15 銅海和銅海下面的十二頭銅牛； 16 盆、鏟、肉叉及耶和華殿裡的一切器具。這些都是巧匠戶蘭用磨亮的銅為所羅門王製造的。 17 這些都是照王的命令，在疏割和撒利但之間的約旦平原用泥模鑄成的。 18 所羅門製造的器具極多，銅的重量無法統計。

19 所羅門又造了上帝殿裡的金壇和放置供餅的桌子， 20 按規定放在內殿前的純金的燈臺和燈盞， 21 以及純金的花飾、燈盞、火鉗、 22 蠟剪、碗、碟和火鼎。殿門和至聖所的門也是金的。

建造殿中各器皿(A)

4 他又做了一座銅壇，長九公尺，寬九公尺，高四公尺半。 2 又鑄造了一個銅海，直徑有四公尺半，是圓形的，高兩公尺兩公寸，圓周有十三公尺兩公寸。 3 銅海底下四周有形狀像牛的裝飾物；每四十五公分十個，共分二行，是和銅海一體鑄成的。 4 有十二頭銅牛馱著銅海：三頭向北，三頭向西，三頭向南，三頭向東。銅海在牛背上面，牛尾部向內。 5 銅海厚七公分半，邊緣像杯邊的做法，形狀似百合花，容量有六萬公升。 6 他又做了十個洗濯盆：五個放在銅海的右邊，五個放在左邊，用來清洗東西；獻燔祭所用的東西要在盆內清洗，但銅海是給祭司洗濯的。

7 又照著規定的樣式做了十個金燈臺，放在殿內；五個在右邊，五個在左邊。 8 又做了十張桌子，安放在殿內；五張在右邊，五張在左邊。又做了一百個金碗。 9 又建造祭司院、大院和大院的門；門都包上銅。 10 又把銅海放在殿的右邊，就是東南方。

11 戶蘭又做了鍋、鏟和碗。這樣，戶蘭為所羅門王完成了神殿的工程， 12 就是兩根柱子和在柱子上面兩個碗形柱頂，以及兩個網子，遮蓋柱子上面兩個碗形的柱頂， 13 又有四百個石榴，安放在兩個網子上，每個網子有兩行石榴，遮蓋柱子上頭兩個碗形的柱頂。 14 又做了十個盆座和盆座上的十個洗濯盆， 15 還有一個銅海和銅海底下的十二頭銅牛。 16 鍋、鏟、肉叉和一切相關的器皿，都是戶蘭用磨光的銅給所羅門王，為耶和華的殿所做的。 17 是王在約旦平原，在疏割和撒利但之間，用膠泥模鑄成的。 18 所羅門所做的這一切器皿，數量很多；銅的重量無法估計。

19 所羅門又做了神殿裡的一切器具，就是金壇和放陳設餅的桌子， 20 用純金做的燈臺和燈盞，按定例在內殿門前燃點， 21 還有燈花、燈盞和燭剪，都是精金做的。 22 又有剪刀、盤子、調羹和火鼎，都是用精金做的。殿門，就是進入至聖所裡面的門和正殿的門，都是金的。

2 Chronicles 4
New English Translation

4 He made a bronze altar, 30 feet[a] long, 30 feet[b] wide, and 15 feet[c] high. 2 He also made the big bronze basin called “The Sea.”[d] It measured 15 feet[e] from rim to rim, was circular in shape, and stood 7½[f] high. Its circumference was 45 feet.[g] 3 Images of bulls were under it all the way around, ten every 18 inches[h] all the way around. The bulls were in two rows and had been cast with “The Sea.”[i] 4 “The Sea” stood on top of twelve bulls. Three faced northward, three westward, three southward, and three eastward. “The Sea” was placed on top of them, and they all faced outward.[j] 5 It was four fingers thick, and its rim was like that of a cup shaped like a lily blossom. It could hold 18,000 gallons.[k] 6 He made ten washing basins; he put five on the south side and five on the north side. In them they rinsed the items used for burnt sacrifices; the priests washed in “The Sea.”

7 He made ten gold lampstands according to specifications and put them in the temple, five on the right and five on the left. 8 He made ten tables and set them in the temple, five on the right and five on the left. He also made 100 gold bowls. 9 He made the courtyard of the priests and the large enclosure and its doors;[l] he plated their doors with bronze. 10 He put “The Sea” on the south side, in the southeast corner.

11 Huram Abi[m] made the pots, shovels, and bowls. He finished all the work on God’s temple he had been assigned by King Solomon.[n] 12 He made[o] the two pillars, the two bowl-shaped tops of the pillars, the latticework for the bowl-shaped tops of the two pillars, 13 the 400 pomegranate-shaped ornaments for the latticework of the two pillars (each latticework had two rows of these ornaments at the bowl-shaped top of the pillar), 14 the ten[p] movable stands with their ten[q] basins, 15 the big bronze basin called “The Sea” with its twelve bulls underneath, 16 and the pots, shovels, and meat forks.[r] All the items King Solomon assigned Huram Abi to make for the Lord’s temple[s] were made from polished bronze. 17 The king had them cast in earth foundries[t] in the region of the Jordan between Sukkoth and Zarethan. 18 Solomon made so many of these items they did not weigh the bronze.[u]

19 Solomon also made these items for God’s temple: the gold altar, the tables on which the Bread of the Presence[v] was kept, 20 the pure gold lampstands and their lamps which burned as specified at the entrance to the inner sanctuary, 21 the pure gold flower-shaped ornaments, lamps, and tongs, 22 the pure gold trimming shears, basins, pans, and censers, and the gold door sockets for the inner sanctuary (the Most Holy Place) and for the doors of the main hall of the temple.

Footnotes

  1. 2 Chronicles 4:1 tn Heb “20 cubits.” Assuming a cubit of 18 inches (45 cm), the length would have been 30 feet (9 m).
  2. 2 Chronicles 4:1 tn Heb “20 cubits.”
  3. 2 Chronicles 4:1 tn Heb “10 cubits.” Assuming a cubit of 18 inches (45 cm), the height would have been 15 feet (4.5 m).
  4. 2 Chronicles 4:2 tn Heb “He made the sea, cast.”sn The large bronze basin known as “The Sea” was mounted on twelve bronze bulls and contained water for the priests to bathe themselves (see v. 6; cf. Exod 30:17-21).
  5. 2 Chronicles 4:2 tn Heb “10 cubits.” Assuming a cubit of 18 inches (45 cm), the diameter would have been 15 feet (4.5 m).
  6. 2 Chronicles 4:2 tn Heb “5 cubits.” Assuming a cubit of 18 inches (45 cm), the height would have been 7.5 feet (2.25 m).
  7. 2 Chronicles 4:2 tn Heb “and a measuring line went around it 30 cubits all around.”
  8. 2 Chronicles 4:3 tn Heb “ten every cubit.”
  9. 2 Chronicles 4:3 tn Heb “rows being cast with its casting.”
  10. 2 Chronicles 4:4 tn Heb “all their hindquarters were toward the inside.”
  11. 2 Chronicles 4:5 tn Heb “3,000 baths” (note that the capacity is given in 1 Kings 7:26 as “2,000 baths”). A bath was a liquid measure roughly equivalent to six gallons (about 22 liters), so 3,000 baths was a quantity of about 18,000 gallons (66,000 liters).
  12. 2 Chronicles 4:9 tn Heb “and the doors for the enclosure.”
  13. 2 Chronicles 4:11 tn Heb “Huram,” but here this refers to Huram Abi (2 Chr 2:13). The complete name has been used in the translation to avoid possible confusion with King Huram of Tyre.

  15. 2 Chronicles 4:12 tn The words “he made” are added for stylistic reasons.
  16. 2 Chronicles 4:14 tc The Hebrew text has עָשָׂה (ʿasah, “he made”), which probably should be emended to עֶשֶׂר (ʿeser, “ten”; see 1 Kgs 7:43).
  17. 2 Chronicles 4:14 tc The Hebrew text has עָשָׂה (ʿasah, “he made”), which probably should be emended to עֲשָׂרָה (ʿasarah, “ten”; see 1 Kgs 7:43).
  18. 2 Chronicles 4:16 tc Some prefer to read here “bowls,” see v. 11 and 1 Kgs 7:45.
  19. 2 Chronicles 4:16 tn Heb “Huram Abi made for King Solomon [for] the house of the Lord.”
  20. 2 Chronicles 4:17 tn Or perhaps, “molds.”

  22. 2 Chronicles 4:19 tn Heb “the bread of the face/presence.”sn This bread offered to God was viewed as a perpetual offering to God. See Lev 24:5-9.
