Zidirea Templului
3 Solomon(A) a început zidirea Casei Domnului la Ierusalim(B), pe muntele Moria, care fusese arătat tatălui său David, în locul pregătit de David în aria lui Ornan(C), Iebusitul. 2 A început să zidească în a doua zi a lunii a doua, în al patrulea an al domniei lui. 3 Iată pe ce temelii(D) a zidit Solomon Casa lui Dumnezeu. Lungimea, în coţi de măsura cea veche a coţilor, era de şaizeci de coţi, iar lăţimea, de douăzeci de coţi. 4 Pridvorul(E) dinainte avea douăzeci de coţi lungime, cât era de lată casa, şi o sută douăzeci de coţi înălţime; Solomon l-a acoperit pe dinăuntru cu aur curat. 5 A îmbrăcat cu lemn de chiparos casa(F) cea mare, a acoperit-o cu aur curat şi a săpat pe ea finici şi împletituri de lănţişoare. 6 A acoperit casa cu pietre scumpe ca podoabă şi aurul era aur din Parvaim. 7 A acoperit cu aur casa, bârnele, pragurile, pereţii şi uşile şi a pus să sape heruvimi pe pereţi. 8 A făcut casa Locului Preasfânt. Ea era lungă de douăzeci de coţi, cât lărgimea casei, şi largă de douăzeci de coţi. A acoperit-o cu aur curat, care preţuia şase sute de talanţi. 9 Greutatea aurului pentru cuie se ridica la cincizeci de sicli. A îmbrăcat cu aur şi odăile de sus. 10 A făcut în casa(G) Locului Preasfânt doi heruvimi săpaţi şi i-a acoperit cu aur. 11 Aripile heruvimilor aveau o lungime de douăzeci de coţi. Aripa celui dintâi, lungă de cinci coţi, atingea zidul casei şi cealaltă aripă, lungă tot de cinci coţi, atingea aripa celui de al doilea heruvim. 12 Aripa celui de al doilea heruvim, lungă de cinci coţi, atingea zidul casei şi cealaltă aripă, lungă tot de cinci coţi, se unea cu aripa celui dintâi heruvim. 13 Aripile acestor heruvimi, întinse, aveau douăzeci de coţi. Ei stăteau în picioare, cu faţa întoarsă spre casă. 14 A făcut perdeaua(H) albastră, purpurie şi cărămizie şi de in subţire şi a lucrat heruvimi pe ea.
Cei doi stâlpi de aramă
15 A făcut înaintea casei doi(I) stâlpi de treizeci şi cinci de coţi înălţime, cu un cap de cinci coţi în vârful lor. 16 A făcut nişte reţele ca acelea care erau în Locul Preasfânt şi le-a pus pe vârful stâlpilor. Apoi a făcut o sută(J) de rodii pe care le-a pus pe reţele. 17 A aşezat(K) stâlpii în partea dinainte a Templului, unul la dreapta şi altul la stânga, a numit pe cel de la dreapta Iachin şi pe cel de la stânga Boaz.
2 Chronicles 3
King James Version
3 Then Solomon began to build the house of the Lord at Jerusalem in mount Moriah, where the Lord appeared unto David his father, in the place that David had prepared in the threshingfloor of Ornan the Jebusite.
2 And he began to build in the second day of the second month, in the fourth year of his reign.
3 Now these are the things wherein Solomon was instructed for the building of the house of God. The length by cubits after the first measure was threescore cubits, and the breadth twenty cubits.
4 And the porch that was in the front of the house, the length of it was according to the breadth of the house, twenty cubits, and the height was an hundred and twenty: and he overlaid it within with pure gold.
5 And the greater house he cieled with fir tree, which he overlaid with fine gold, and set thereon palm trees and chains.
6 And he garnished the house with precious stones for beauty: and the gold was gold of Parvaim.
7 He overlaid also the house, the beams, the posts, and the walls thereof, and the doors thereof, with gold; and graved cherubims on the walls.
8 And he made the most holy house, the length whereof was according to the breadth of the house, twenty cubits, and the breadth thereof twenty cubits: and he overlaid it with fine gold, amounting to six hundred talents.
9 And the weight of the nails was fifty shekels of gold. And he overlaid the upper chambers with gold.
10 And in the most holy house he made two cherubims of image work, and overlaid them with gold.
11 And the wings of the cherubims were twenty cubits long: one wing of the one cherub was five cubits, reaching to the wall of the house: and the other wing was likewise five cubits, reaching to the wing of the other cherub.
12 And one wing of the other cherub was five cubits, reaching to the wall of the house: and the other wing was five cubits also, joining to the wing of the other cherub.
13 The wings of these cherubims spread themselves forth twenty cubits: and they stood on their feet, and their faces were inward.
14 And he made the vail of blue, and purple, and crimson, and fine linen, and wrought cherubims thereon.
15 Also he made before the house two pillars of thirty and five cubits high, and the chapiter that was on the top of each of them was five cubits.
16 And he made chains, as in the oracle, and put them on the heads of the pillars; and made an hundred pomegranates, and put them on the chains.
17 And he reared up the pillars before the temple, one on the right hand, and the other on the left; and called the name of that on the right hand Jachin, and the name of that on the left Boaz.
2 Chronicles 3
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.
