1
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.
Καὶ ἤρξατο Σαλωμὼν τοῦ οἰκοδομεῖν τὸν οἶκον Κυρίου ἐν Ἱερουσαλὴμ ἐν ὄρει τοῦ Ἀμωρία, οὗ ὤφθη Κύριος τῷ Δαυὶδ πατρὶ αὐτοῦ, ἐν τῷ τόπῳ ᾧ ἡτοίμασε Δαυὶδ ἐν ἅλῳ Ὀρνὰ τοῦ Ἰεβουσαίου.
2
And he began to build in the second day of the second month, in the fourth year of his reign.
Καὶ ἤρξατο οἰκοδομῆσαι ἐν τῷ μηνὶ τῷ δευτέρῳ ἐν τῷ ἔτει τῷ τετάρτῳ τῆς βασιλείας αὐτοῦ.
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.
Καὶ ταῦτα ἤρξατο Σαλωμὼν τοῦ οἰκοδομῆσαι τὸν οἶκον τοῦ Θεοῦ· μῆκος πήχεων ἡ διαμέτρησις ἡ πρώτη πήχεων ἑξήκοντα, καὶ εὖρος πήχεων εἴκοσι.
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.
Καὶ αἰλὰμ κατὰ πρόσωπον τοῦ οἴκου, μῆκος ἐπὶ πρόσωπον πλάτους τοῦ οἴκου πήχεων εἴκοσι, καὶ ὕψος πήχεων ἑκατὸν εἴκοσι, καὶ κατεχρύσωσεν αὐτὸν ἔσωθεν χρυσίῳ καθαρῷ.
5
And the greater house he cieled with fir tree, which he overlaid with fine gold, and set thereon palm trees and chains.
Καὶ τὸν οἶκον τὸν μέγαν ἐξύλωσε ξύλοις κεδρίνοις, καὶ κατεχρύσωσε χρυσίῳ καθαρῷ, καὶ ἔγλυψεν ἐπʼ αὐτοῦ φοίνικας καὶ χαλαστά.
6
And he garnished the house with precious stones for beauty: and the gold was gold of Parvaim.
Καὶ ἐκόσμησε τὸν οἶκον λίθοις τιμίοις εἰς δόξαν, καὶ ἐχρύσωσε χρυσίῳ χρυσίου τοῦ ἐκ Φαρουΐμ.
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.
Καὶ ἐχρύσωσε τὸν οἶκον, καὶ τοὺς τοίχους αὐτοῦ, καὶ τοὺς πυλῶνας, καὶ τὰ ὀροφώματα, καὶ τὰ θυρώματα χρυσίῳ, καὶ ἔγλυψε χερουβὶμ ἐπὶ τῶν τοίχων.
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.
Καὶ ἐποίησε τὸν οἶκον τοῦ ἁγίου τῶν ἁγίων, μῆκος αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ πρόσωπον, πλάτος τοῦ οἴκου πήχεων εἴκοσι, καὶ τὸ μῆκος πήχεων εἴκοσι, καὶ ἐχρύσωσεν αὐτὸν χρυσίῳ καθαρῷ εἰς χερουβὶμ εἰς τάλαντα ἑξακόσια.
9
And the weight of the nails was fifty shekels of gold. And he overlaid the upper chambers with gold.
Καὶ ὁλκὴ τῶν ἥλων, ὁλκὴ τοῦ ἑνὸς πεντήκοντα σίκλοι χρυσίου, καὶ τὸ ὑπερῷον ἐχρύσωσε χρυσίῳ.
10
And in the most holy house he made two cherubims of image work, and overlaid them with gold.
Καὶ ἐποίησεν ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ τῷ ἁγίῳ τῶν ἁγίων χερουβὶμ δύο, ἔργον ἐκ ξύλων· καὶ ἐχρύσωσεν αὐτὰ χρυσίῳ.
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.
Καὶ αἱ πτέρυγες τῶν χερουβὶμ τὸ μῆκος πήχεων εἴκοσι, καὶ ἡ πτέρυξ ἡ μία πήχεων πέντε ἁπτομένη τοῦ τοίχου τοῦ οἴκου, καὶ ἡ πτέρυξ ἡ ἑτέρα πήχεων πέντε ἁπτομένη τῆς πτέρυγος τοῦ χερουβὶμ τοῦ ἑτέρου.
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.
Καὶ αἱ πτέρυγες τῶν χερουβὶμ τούτων διαπεπετασμέναι πήχεων εἴκοσι, καὶ αὐτὰ ἑστηκότα ἐπὶ τοὺς πόδας αὐτῶν, καὶ τὰ πρόσωπα αὐτῶν εἰς τὸν οἶκον.
14
And he made the vail of blue, and purple, and crimson, and fine linen, and wrought cherubims thereon.
Καὶ ἐποίησε τὸ καταπέτασμα ὑακίνθου, καὶ πορφύρας, καὶ κοκκίνου, καὶ βύσσου, καὶ ὕφανεν ἐν αὐτῷ χερουβίμ.
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.
Καὶ ἐποίησεν ἔμπροσθεν τοῦ οἴκου στύλους δύο, πήχεων τριακονταπέντε τὸ ὕψος, καὶ τὰς κεφαλὰς αὐτῶν πήχεων πέντε.
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.
Καὶ ἐποίησε σερσερὼθ ἐν τῷ δαβὶρ, καὶ ἔδωκεν ἐπὶ τῶν κεφαλῶν τῶν στύλων· καὶ ἐποίησε ῥοΐσκους ἑκατὸν, καὶ ἔθηκεν ἐπὶ τῶν χαλαστῶν.
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.
Καὶ ἔστησε τοὺς στύλους κατὰ πρόσωπον τοῦ ναοῦ, ἕνα ἐκ δεξιῶν, καὶ τὸν ἕνα ἐξ εὐωνύμων· καὶ ἐκάλεσε τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ ἐκ δεξιῶν, Κατόρθωσις, καὶ τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ ἐξ ἀριστερῶν, Ἰσχύς.
