1 Mga Hari 7
Magandang Balita Biblia (with Deuterocanon)
Ang Palasyo ni Solomon
7 Labingtatlong taon naman ang ginugol ni Solomon sa pagpapagawa ng kanyang palasyo. 2 Ang gusaling tinatawag na Gubat ng Lebanon ay may apatnapu't limang metro ang haba, dalawampu't dalawa't kalahating metro ang luwang at labingtatlo't kalahating metro ang taas. Ang gusaling ito ay may apat na hanay ng haliging sedar, na siyang kinapapatungan ng mga bigang sedar. 3 Sedar din ang bubong ng mga silid na nakapatong sa apatnapu't limang haligi. 4 Tatlong hanay ang mga bintana, at ang mga ito'y magkakatapat. 5 Parihaba ang mga hamba ng mga pinto at bintana, at pawang magkakatapat.
6 Nagpagawa rin siya ng Bulwagan ng mga Haligi na dalawampu't dalawa't kalahating metro ang haba at labingtatlo't kalahating metro naman ang luwang. Sa pagpasok nito ay may isang pasilyong may bubong.
7 Ang silid na kinalalagyan ng trono na tinatawag ding Bulwagan ng Katarungan at kung saan nagbibigay ng hatol si Solomon, ay may dingding, sahig at kisame na tablang sedar.
8 Sa(A) likod naman ng bulwagang iyon ay nagpagawa siya ng kanyang tirahan, at ang yari nito'y tulad ng silid Hukuman. Ang kanyang reyna, ang anak ng Faraon, ay ipinagtayo rin niya ng tirahan, at ito'y katulad ng sa kanya.
9 Ang lahat ng gusali ay yari sa naglalakihang bato na tinabas ng lagari sa likod at harap. 10 May tatlo't kalahating metro ang sukat ng mga batong ginamit sa pundasyon, at mayroon ding apat at kalahating metro. 11 Sa paitaas naman, mamahaling batong tinabas at mga trosong sedar ang ginamit. 12 Gaya ng portiko at patyo ng Templo, ang patyo ng palasyo ay naliligid ng tatlong hanay na batong tinabas at isang hanay na trosong sedar.
Ang mga Kagamitan sa Templo
13 Ipinatawag ni Solomon sa Tiro si Hiram, 14 anak ng isang balo mula sa lipi ni Neftali na napangasawa ng isang manggagawa ng mga kagamitang tanso na taga-Tiro. Si Hiram ay matalinong manggagawa, at mahusay gumawa ng anumang kagamitang tanso. Siya ang ipinatawag ni Haring Solomon upang gumawa ng lahat ng kagamitang yari sa tanso.
Ang mga Haliging Tanso(B)
15 Gumawa siya ng dalawang haliging tanso. Walong metro ang taas ng mga ito at lima't kalahating metro ang sukat sa pabilog. 16 Ang bawat haligi ay nilagyan niya ng koronang tanso na dalawa't kalahating metro ang taas. 17 Gumawa pa siya ng dalawang palamuting animo'y kadena na pinalawit niya sa dakong ibaba ng kapitel, pitong likaw bawat kapitel. 18 Naghulma pa siya ng mga hugis granadang tanso na inilagay niya sa ibaba at itaas ng palamuting kadena, dalawang hanay bawat korona ng haligi.
19 Ang mga korona naman ng mga haligi ay hugis bulaklak ng liryo at dalawang metro ang taas. 20 Sa ibaba nito nakapaligid ang mga granadang tanso, 200 bawat kapitel.
21 Ang mga haliging ito ay itinayo sa pasilyong nasa harap ng Templo, sa magkabilang tabi ng pinto. Ang kanan ay tinawag na Jaquin[a] at ang kaliwa'y Boaz.[b] 22 At sa ibabaw ng mga haligi'y nilagyan ng mga kapitel na hugis-liryo. Dito natapos ang paggawa ng mga haligi.
Ang Tansong Ipunan ng Tubig(C)
23 Gumawa si Hiram ng isang malaking ipunan ng tubig apat at kalahating metro ang luwang ng labi nito, dalawa't kalahating metro ang lalim at labingtatlo't kalahating metro naman ang sukat sa pabilog. 24 Sa gilid nito'y nakapaikot ang palamuting hugis upo, sampu sa bawat kalahating metro. Ang mga palamuti ay nakahanay nang dalawa na kasamang hinulma ng ipunan. 25 Ang ipunan ay ipinatong sa gulugod ng labindalawang torong tanso, na magkakatalikuran: tatlo ang nakaharap sa silangan, tatlo sa kanluran, tatlo sa hilaga at tatlo sa timog. 26 Tatlong pulgada ang kapal ng ipunan at ang labi nito'y parang labi ng tasa, hugis bulaklak ng liryo. Ang ipunang tanso ay naglalaman ng 10,000 galong tubig.
Ang mga Patungan ng Hugasan
27 Gumawa pa siya ng sampung patungang tanso para sa mga hugasan. Bawat isa'y dalawang metro ang haba at lapad; isa't kalahating metro naman ang taas. 28 Ang mga ito ay ginawang parisukat na dingding na nakahinang sa mga balangkas. 29 Ang bawat dingding ay may mga nakaukit na larawan ng leon, baka, at kerubin. Ang mga gilid naman ng balangkas sa itaas at ibaba ng leon at baka ay may mga nakaukit na palamuting bulaklak na hugis korona. 30 Ang bawat patungan ay may apat na gulong na tanso at mga eheng tanso. Sa apat na sulok ng patungan ay may apat na tukod na tanso na siyang patungan ng hugasan. 31 Sa ibabaw ng mga tukod na ito ay may pabilog na balangkas para patungan ng hugasan at may taas na kalahating metro. Ang butas ng korona ay bilog at may 0.7 metro ang lalim. Ngunit parisukat ang ibabaw ng patungan, at ito'y may mga dibuhong nakaukit.
32 Ang bastidor ay nakapatong sa mga ehe ng gulong. Ang mga gulong naman ay nasa ilalim ng mga dingding. Dalawampu't pitong pulgada ang taas ng mga gulong, 33 at ang mga ito'y parang mga gulong ng karwahe; ang mga ehe, gilid, rayos at ang panggitnang bahagi ng gulong ay yaring lahat sa tanso. 34 Ang mga tukod naman sa apat na sulok at ang patungan ay iisang piraso. 35 Ang ibabaw ng patungan ay may leeg na pabilog, siyam na pulgada ang taas. Dito nakasalalay ang labi ng hugasan. Ang leeg, ang kanyang suporta at ang ibabaw ng patungan ay iisang piyesa lamang, 36 at ito'y may mga disenyong kerubin, leon, baka at mga punong palma.
37 Ganyan ang pagkayari ng sampung patungang tanso; iisa ang pagkakahulma, iisang sukat at iisang hugis.
38 Gumawa(D) rin siya ng sampung hugasang tanso, tig-isa ang bawat patungan. Dalawang metro ang luwang ng labi, at naglalaman ang bawat isa ng 880 litrong tubig. 39 Inilagay niya ang lima sa gawing kaliwa at ang lima'y sa gawing kanan ng Templo. Samantala, ang tangkeng tanso ay nasa gawing kanan ng Templo, sa sulok na timog-silangan.
40 Gumawa rin si Hiram ng mga kaldero, mga pala at mga mangkok. Natapos nga niyang lahat ang mga ipinagawa sa kanya ni Haring Solomon: 41 ang dalawang haliging tanso, ang mga kapitel nito at mga kadenang nakapalamuti sa kapitel; 42 ang 400 hugis granada na nakapaligid nang dalawang hanay sa puno ng kapitel; 43 ang sampung hugasan at ang kani-kanilang mga patungan; 44 ang tangkeng tanso at ang labindalawang toro na kinapapatungan niyon; 45 ang mga kaldero, pala at mangkok.
Ang lahat ng nasabing kagamitan na ipinagawa ni Haring Solomon kay Hiram ay purong tanso. 46 Ipinahulma niya ang lahat ng iyon sa kapatagan ng Jordan sa isang pagawaang nasa pagitan ng Sucot at Zaretan. 47 Hindi na ipinatimbang ni Solomon ang mga kasangkapang tanso sapagkat napakarami ng mga iyon.
48 Nagpagawa(E) rin si Solomon ng mga kagamitang ginto na nasa Templo ni Yahweh: ang altar na sunugan ng insenso, ang mesang patungan ng tinapay na handog; 49 ang(F) mga patungan ng ilawan sa harap ng Dakong Kabanal-banalan, lima sa kanan at lima sa kaliwa; ang mga palamuting bulaklak, ang mga ilawan at pang-ipit ng mitsa; 50 ang mga tasang lalagyan ng langis, ang mga pamutol ng mitsa, ang mga mangkok, ang mga sisidlan ng insenso at lalagyan ng apoy; at ang mga paikutan ng mga pinto ng Dakong Kabanal-banalan, at gayundin ng mga pinto ng Dakong Banal.
51 Natapos(G) ngang lahat ang mga ipinagawa ni Solomon para sa Templo ni Yahweh. Tinipon din niya ang lahat ng ginto, pilak at kagamitang inihandog ng kanyang amang si David, at itinago sa lalagyan ng kayamanan ng Templo.
1 Kings 7
New International Version
Solomon Builds His Palace
7 It took Solomon thirteen years, however, to complete the construction of his palace.(A) 2 He built the Palace(B) of the Forest of Lebanon(C) a hundred cubits long, fifty wide and thirty high,[a] with four rows of cedar columns supporting trimmed cedar beams. 3 It was roofed with cedar above the beams that rested on the columns—forty-five beams, fifteen to a row. 4 Its windows were placed high in sets of three, facing each other. 5 All the doorways had rectangular frames; they were in the front part in sets of three, facing each other.[b]
6 He made a colonnade fifty cubits long and thirty wide.[c] In front of it was a portico, and in front of that were pillars and an overhanging roof.
7 He built the throne hall, the Hall of Justice, where he was to judge,(D) and he covered it with cedar from floor to ceiling.[d](E) 8 And the palace in which he was to live, set farther back, was similar in design. Solomon also made a palace like this hall for Pharaoh’s daughter, whom he had married.(F)
9 All these structures, from the outside to the great courtyard and from foundation to eaves, were made of blocks of high-grade stone cut to size and smoothed on their inner and outer faces. 10 The foundations were laid with large stones of good quality, some measuring ten cubits[e] and some eight.[f] 11 Above were high-grade stones, cut to size, and cedar beams. 12 The great courtyard was surrounded by a wall of three courses(G) of dressed stone and one course of trimmed cedar beams, as was the inner courtyard of the temple of the Lord with its portico.
The Temple’s Furnishings(H)(I)
13 King Solomon sent to Tyre and brought Huram,[g](J) 14 whose mother was a widow from the tribe of Naphtali and whose father was from Tyre and a skilled craftsman in bronze. Huram was filled with wisdom,(K) with understanding and with knowledge to do all kinds of bronze work. He came to King Solomon and did all(L) the work assigned to him.
15 He cast two bronze pillars,(M) each eighteen cubits high and twelve cubits in circumference.[h] 16 He also made two capitals(N) of cast bronze to set on the tops of the pillars; each capital was five cubits[i] high. 17 A network of interwoven chains adorned the capitals on top of the pillars, seven for each capital. 18 He made pomegranates in two rows[j] encircling each network to decorate the capitals on top of the pillars.[k] He did the same for each capital. 19 The capitals on top of the pillars in the portico were in the shape of lilies, four cubits[l] high. 20 On the capitals of both pillars, above the bowl-shaped part next to the network, were the two hundred pomegranates(O) in rows all around. 21 He erected the pillars at the portico of the temple. The pillar to the south he named Jakin[m] and the one to the north Boaz.[n](P) 22 The capitals on top were in the shape of lilies. And so the work on the pillars(Q) was completed.
23 He made the Sea(R) of cast metal, circular in shape, measuring ten cubits from rim to rim and five cubits high. It took a line(S) of thirty cubits[o] to measure around it. 24 Below the rim, gourds encircled it—ten to a cubit. The gourds were cast in two rows in one piece with the Sea.
25 The Sea stood on twelve bulls,(T) three facing north, three facing west, three facing south and three facing east. The Sea rested on top of them, and their hindquarters were toward the center. 26 It was a handbreadth[p] in thickness, and its rim was like the rim of a cup, like a lily blossom. It held two thousand baths.[q]
27 He also made ten movable stands(U) of bronze; each was four cubits long, four wide and three high.[r] 28 This is how the stands were made: They had side panels attached to uprights. 29 On the panels between the uprights were lions, bulls and cherubim—and on the uprights as well. Above and below the lions and bulls were wreaths of hammered work. 30 Each stand(V) had four bronze wheels with bronze axles, and each had a basin resting on four supports, cast with wreaths on each side. 31 On the inside of the stand there was an opening that had a circular frame one cubit[s] deep. This opening was round, and with its basework it measured a cubit and a half.[t] Around its opening there was engraving. The panels of the stands were square, not round. 32 The four wheels were under the panels, and the axles of the wheels were attached to the stand. The diameter of each wheel was a cubit and a half. 33 The wheels were made like chariot wheels; the axles, rims, spokes and hubs were all of cast metal.
34 Each stand had four handles, one on each corner, projecting from the stand. 35 At the top of the stand there was a circular band half a cubit[u] deep. The supports and panels were attached to the top of the stand. 36 He engraved cherubim, lions and palm trees on the surfaces of the supports and on the panels, in every available space, with wreaths all around. 37 This is the way he made the ten stands. They were all cast in the same molds and were identical in size and shape.
38 He then made ten bronze basins,(W) each holding forty baths[v] and measuring four cubits across, one basin to go on each of the ten stands. 39 He placed five of the stands on the south side of the temple and five on the north. He placed the Sea on the south side, at the southeast corner of the temple. 40 He also made the pots[w] and shovels and sprinkling bowls.(X)
So Huram finished all the work he had undertaken for King Solomon in the temple of the Lord:
41 the two pillars;
the two bowl-shaped capitals on top of the pillars;
the two sets of network decorating the two bowl-shaped capitals on top of the pillars;
42 the four hundred pomegranates for the two sets of network (two rows of pomegranates for each network decorating the bowl-shaped capitals(Y) on top of the pillars);
43 the ten stands with their ten basins;
44 the Sea and the twelve bulls under it;
45 the pots, shovels and sprinkling bowls.(Z)
All these objects that Huram(AA) made for King Solomon for the temple of the Lord were of burnished bronze. 46 The king had them cast in clay molds in the plain(AB) of the Jordan between Sukkoth(AC) and Zarethan.(AD) 47 Solomon left all these things unweighed,(AE) because there were so many;(AF) the weight of the bronze(AG) was not determined.
48 Solomon also made all(AH) the furnishings that were in the Lord’s temple:
the golden altar;
the golden table(AI) on which was the bread of the Presence;(AJ)
49 the lampstands(AK) of pure gold (five on the right and five on the left, in front of the inner sanctuary);
the gold floral work and lamps and tongs;
50 the pure gold basins, wick trimmers, sprinkling bowls, dishes(AL) and censers;(AM)
and the gold sockets for the doors of the innermost room, the Most Holy Place, and also for the doors of the main hall of the temple.
51 When all the work King Solomon had done for the temple of the Lord was finished, he brought in the things his father David had dedicated(AN)—the silver and gold and the furnishings(AO)—and he placed them in the treasuries of the Lord’s temple.

Chinese New Version (Traditional)
所羅門的王宮
7 所羅門為自己建造宮殿花了十三年才完成。 2 他又建造黎巴嫩林宮,長四十四公尺,寬二十二公尺,高十三公尺半。有四行香柏木的柱子,柱子上有香柏木的橫梁。 3 柱子每行十五根,共四十五根;柱子上有廂房,是用香柏木蓋屋頂的。 4 有窗框三行,窗與窗相對,共有三層。 5 所有的門和窗都有四方的框子,有窗三層,窗與窗相對。 6 他又建造柱廊,長二十二公尺,寬十三公尺半。在柱廊前有廊子,在廊子前又有柱子和臺階。 7 又建造王室座廊,就是審判廊,他在這裡執行審判。由地板到天花板,都貼上香柏木板。 8 所羅門自己住的宮殿,是在廊後的另一個院內,建造法相同。他又為他娶法老的女兒建造一座宮院,建法與這廊子一樣。
9 從根基到屋簷,從外院到大院,這一切都是用貴重的石塊,按尺寸鑿好,用鋸子內外鋸齊的石塊建成的。
10 根基也都是用貴重的大石塊;有長四公尺的,也有長三公尺半的。 11 上面有按著尺寸鑿好的貴重石塊和香柏木。 12 大院的周圍有鑿好的石頭三層,香柏木一層,與耶和華的內院和殿廊一樣。
戶蘭的特別任務
13 所羅門王派人去把戶蘭從推羅接來。 14 戶蘭是拿弗他利支派中一個寡婦的兒子;他父親是推羅人,是個銅匠。戶蘭滿有智慧、聰明和知識,能作各樣銅工;他來到所羅門王那裡,作王的一切工作。
鑄造兩根柱子(A)
15 他鑄造了兩根銅柱,每根高八公尺,圓周五公尺三公寸。 16 他又用銅鑄造了兩個柱頂,安放在柱頭上,每個柱頂高兩公尺兩公寸。 17 他又為柱頭上的柱頭頂做了兩塊網子和辮結成的鍊子,每個柱頂有七塊。 18 他又做了兩行石榴圍繞在柱頭上,柱頂的網子上,兩個柱頂都是這樣。 19 廊子裡柱頭上的柱頂,刻有百合花細工,一公尺八公寸。 20 兩根柱子上柱頂的鼓肚上,網子旁邊,各有石榴二百個,分兩行環繞著。 21 他把這兩根柱子豎立在殿廊的前面。豎立在南邊的柱子,他起名叫雅斤;豎立在北面的柱子,起名叫波阿斯。 22 在柱子的上頭刻有百合花的細工。這樣,做柱子的工作就完成了。
鑄造銅海(B)
23 他又鑄造了一座圓形的銅海,從這邊到那邊四公尺四公寸,高兩公尺兩公寸,圓周十三公尺兩公寸。 24 在銅海邊緣以下有匏瓜圍繞著,每四十五公分十個。匏瓜共有兩行,是鑄造銅海的時候,一併鑄造上去的。 25 銅海安放在十二頭銅牛背上,三頭向北,三頭向西,三頭向南,三頭向東,銅海是在銅牛之上,牛尾都向內。 26 銅海厚七公分半,邊緣好像杯子的邊緣,又好像百合花蕾,能盛水四萬公升。
鑄造銅座和銅盆(C)
27 他又做了十個銅盆座;每個長一公尺八公寸,寬一公尺八公寸,高一公尺三公寸。 28 盆座的做法是這樣:盆座有數邊,各邊都連接在盆架中。 29 在盆架間的各邊上,有獅子、牛和基路伯。盆架上有座,獅子和牛的上下都有花紋的浮雕。 30 每個盆座都有四個銅輪和銅軸,在盆座以下的四腳上有鑄成的支架,各邊都刻有花紋。 31 盆座的口從內緣到頂,高四十五公分。盆口作圓形,照盆架上那座的樣式,直徑六十六公分。盆口的邊上也有雕刻,盆座的邊是四方形,不是圓形的。 32 盆座的四個輪子是在盆邊的下面,輪座與軸相接,每個輪子高六十六公分。 33 輪子的形狀,好像車輪的做法,輪軸、輪輞、輪輻、輪轂都是鑄成的。 34 每一個盆座的四角都有四個支架;支架是與盆座一塊鑄成的。 35 盆座頂上有一個圓圈,高二十二公分;在盆座頂的座的撐子和邊緣是與座一塊鑄成的。 36 又在撐子和邊緣的上面刻有基路伯、獅子和棕樹,又在各空處,周圍刻上花紋。 37 他這樣做了十個盆座,鑄法、尺寸和樣式都是相同的。 38 他又做了十個銅盆,每個銅盆能盛水八百公升;每個銅盆的直徑都是一公尺八公寸。在十個盆座上,每個都安放一個銅盆。 39 他把五個盆座放在殿的南邊,五個放在殿的北邊,又把銅海放在殿的南邊,就是靠東南角的地方。
戶蘭所做器皿的總表(D)
40 戶蘭又做了盆子、鏟子和碗。這樣,戶蘭為所羅門王完成了在耶和華的殿裡所要作的一切工程。 41 所做的就是兩根柱子和在柱子頂上碗形的柱頂;兩塊遮蓋柱子頂上碗形柱頂的網子; 42 在兩塊網子上的四百個石榴,每塊網子上有兩行石榴,遮蓋在柱子上頭兩個碗形的柱頂; 43 十個盆座和盆座上的十個銅盆; 44 一個銅海和銅海下的十二頭銅牛; 45 鍋、鏟子和盤子。以上這一切器皿都是戶蘭為所羅門在耶和華的殿裡用磨亮的銅做成的。 46 是王在約旦平原,在疏割與撒利但之間用泥模鑄造的。 47 這一切器皿所羅門都沒有稱算過;由於數量太多,銅的重量也無法估計。
48 所羅門又做了耶和華殿裡的一切器具,就是金壇和放陳設餅的桌子, 49 內殿前面的精金燈臺,右邊五行,左邊五行;還有金花、金燈盞, 50 精金的碗盆、燭剪、盤子、調羹和火鼎,內殿至聖所的門框和外殿的門樞。
51 這樣,所羅門為耶和華的殿所作的一切工程都完成了。所羅門把他父親大衛分別為聖的金銀和器皿,都運了來,存放在耶和華殿的庫房裡。
