1 B ut Solomon took thirteen years to build his own house; so he finished all his house.

Salomão levou treze anos para terminar a construção do seu palácio.

2 H e also built the House of the Forest of Lebanon; its length was one hundred cubits, its width fifty cubits, and its height thirty cubits, with four rows of cedar pillars, and cedar beams on the pillars.

Ele construiu o Palácio da Floresta do Líbano com quarenta e cinco metros de comprimento, vinte e dois metros e meio de largura e treze metros e meio de altura, sustentado por quatro fileiras de colunas de cedro sobre as quais apoiavam-se vigas de cedro aparelhadas.

3 A nd it was paneled with cedar above the beams that were on forty-five pillars, fifteen to a row.

O forro, de cedro, ficava sobre as quarenta e cinco vigas, quinze por fileira, que se apoiavam nas colunas.

4 T here were windows with beveled frames in three rows, and window was opposite window in three tiers.

Havia janelas dispostas de três em três, uma em frente da outra.

5 A nd all the doorways and doorposts had rectangular frames; and window was opposite window in three tiers.

Todas as portas tinham estrutura retangular; ficavam na parte da frente, dispostas de três em três, uma em frente da outra.

6 H e also made the Hall of Pillars: its length was fifty cubits, and its width thirty cubits; and in front of them was a portico with pillars, and a canopy was in front of them.

Fez um pórtico de colunas de vinte e dois metros e meio de comprimento e treze metros e meio de largura. Em frente havia outro pórtico com colunas e uma cobertura que se estendia além das colunas.

7 T hen he made a hall for the throne, the Hall of Judgment, where he might judge; and it was paneled with cedar from floor to ceiling.

Construiu a Sala do Trono, isto é, a Sala da Justiça, onde iria julgar, e revestiu-a de cedro desde o chão até o teto.

8 A nd the house where he dwelt had another court inside the hall, of like workmanship. Solomon also made a house like this hall for Pharaoh’s daughter, whom he had taken as wife.

E o palácio para sua moradia, no outro pátio, tinha um formato semelhante. Salomão fez também um palácio como esse para a filha do faraó, com quem tinha se casado.

9 A ll these were of costly stones cut to size, trimmed with saws, inside and out, from the foundation to the eaves, and also on the outside to the great court.

Todas essas construções, desde o lado externo até o grande pátio e do alicerce até o beiral, foram feitas de pedra de qualidade superior, cortadas sob medida e desbastadas com uma serra nos lados interno e externo.

10 T he foundation was of costly stones, large stones, some ten cubits and some eight cubits.

Os alicerces foram lançados com pedras grandes de qualidade superior, algumas medindo quatro metros e meio e outras três metros e sessenta centímetros.

11 A nd above were costly stones, hewn to size, and cedar wood.

Na parte de cima havia pedras de qualidade superior, cortadas sob medida, e vigas de cedro.

12 T he great court was enclosed with three rows of hewn stones and a row of cedar beams. So were the inner court of the house of the Lord and the vestibule of the temple. Hiram the Craftsman

O grande pátio era cercado por um muro de três camadas de pedras lavradas e uma camada de vigas de cedro aparelhadas, da mesma maneira que o pátio interior do templo do Senhor, com o seu pórtico. Os Utensílios do Templo

13 N ow King Solomon sent and brought Huram from Tyre.

O rei Salomão enviara mensageiros a Tiro e trouxera Hurão,

14 H e was the son of a widow from the tribe of Naphtali, and his father was a man of Tyre, a bronze worker; he was filled with wisdom and understanding and skill in working with all kinds of bronze work. So he came to King Solomon and did all his work. The Bronze Pillars for the Temple

filho de uma viúva da tribo de Naftali e de um cidadão de Tiro, artífice em bronze. Hurão era extremamente hábil e experiente, e sabia fazer todo tipo de trabalho em bronze. Apresentou-se ao rei Salomão e fez depois todo o trabalho que lhe foi designado.

15 A nd he cast two pillars of bronze, each one eighteen cubits high, and a line of twelve cubits measured the circumference of each.

Ele fundiu duas colunas de bronze, cada uma com oito metros e dez centímetros de altura e cinco metros e quarenta centímetros de circunferência, medidas pelo fio apropriado.

16 T hen he made two capitals of cast bronze, to set on the tops of the pillars. The height of one capital was five cubits, and the height of the other capital was five cubits.

Também fez dois capitéis de bronze fundido para colocar no alto das colunas; cada capitel tinha dois metros e vinte e cinco centímetros de altura.

17 H e made a lattice network, with wreaths of chainwork, for the capitals which were on top of the pillars: seven chains for one capital and seven for the other capital.

Conjuntos de correntes entrelaçadas ornamentavam os capitéis no alto das colunas, sete em cada capitel.

18 S o he made the pillars, and two rows of pomegranates above the network all around to cover the capitals that were on top; and thus he did for the other capital.

Fez também romãs em duas fileiras que circundavam cada conjunto de correntes para cobrir os capitéis no alto das colunas. Fez o mesmo com cada capitel.

19 T he capitals which were on top of the pillars in the hall were in the shape of lilies, four cubits.

Os capitéis no alto das colunas do pórtico tinham o formato de lírios, com um metro e oitenta centímetros de altura.

20 T he capitals on the two pillars also had pomegranates above, by the convex surface which was next to the network; and there were two hundred such pomegranates in rows on each of the capitals all around.

Nos capitéis das duas colunas, acima da parte que tinha formato de taça, perto do conjunto de correntes, havia duzentas romãs enfileiradas ao redor.

21 T hen he set up the pillars by the vestibule of the temple; he set up the pillar on the right and called its name Jachin, and he set up the pillar on the left and called its name Boaz.

Ele levantou as colunas na frente do pórtico do templo. Deu o nome de Jaquim à coluna ao sul e de Boaz à coluna ao norte.

22 T he tops of the pillars were in the shape of lilies. So the work of the pillars was finished. The Sea and the Oxen

Os capitéis no alto tinham a forma de lírios. E assim completou-se o trabalho das colunas.

23 A nd he made the Sea of cast bronze, ten cubits from one brim to the other; it was completely round. Its height was five cubits, and a line of thirty cubits measured its circumference.

Fez o tanque de metal fundido, redondo, medindo quatro metros e meio de diâmetro e dois metros e vinte e cinco centímetros de altura. Era preciso um fio de treze metros e meio para medir a sua circunferência.

24 B elow its brim were ornamental buds encircling it all around, ten to a cubit, all the way around the Sea. The ornamental buds were cast in two rows when it was cast.

Abaixo da borda e ao seu redor havia duas fileiras de frutos, de cinco em cinco centímetros, fundidas numa só peça com o tanque.

25 I t stood on twelve oxen: three looking toward the north, three looking toward the west, three looking toward the south, and three looking toward the east; the Sea was set upon them, and all their back parts pointed inward.

O tanque ficava sobre doze touros, três voltados para o norte, três para o oeste, três para o sul e três para o leste. Ficava em cima deles, e as pernas traseiras dos touros eram voltadas para o centro.

26 I t was a handbreadth thick; and its brim was shaped like the brim of a cup, like a lily blossom. It contained two thousand baths. The Carts and the Lavers

A espessura do tanque era de quatro dedos, e sua borda era como a borda de um cálice, como uma flor de lírio. Sua capacidade era de quarenta mil litros.

27 H e also made ten carts of bronze; four cubits was the length of each cart, four cubits its width, and three cubits its height.

Também fez dez carrinhos de bronze; cada um tinha um metro e oitenta centímetros de comprimento e de largura, e um metro e trinta e cinco centímetros de altura.

28 A nd this was the design of the carts: They had panels, and the panels were between frames;

Os carrinhos eram feitos assim: tinham placas laterais presas a armações.

29 o n the panels that were between the frames were lions, oxen, and cherubim. And on the frames was a pedestal on top. Below the lions and oxen were wreaths of plaited work.

Nas placas, entre as armações, havia figuras de leões, bois e querubins; sobre as armações, acima e abaixo dos leões e bois, havia grinaldas de metal batido.

30 E very cart had four bronze wheels and axles of bronze, and its four feet had supports. Under the laver were supports of cast bronze beside each wreath.

Em cada carrinho havia quatro rodas de bronze com eixos de bronze, cada um com uma bacia apoiada em quatro pés e fundida ao lado de cada grinalda.

31 I ts opening inside the crown at the top was one cubit in diameter; and the opening was round, shaped like a pedestal, one and a half cubits in outside diameter; and also on the opening were engravings, but the panels were square, not round.

No lado de dentro do carrinho havia uma abertura circular com quarenta e cinco centímetros de profundidade. Essa abertura era redonda e, com sua base, media setenta centímetros. Havia esculturas em torno da abertura. As placas dos carrinhos eram quadradas, e não redondas.

32 U nder the panels were the four wheels, and the axles of the wheels were joined to the cart. The height of a wheel was one and a half cubits.

As quatro rodas ficavam sob as placas, e os eixos das rodas ficavam presos ao estrado. O diâmetro de cada roda era de setenta centímetros.

33 T he workmanship of the wheels was like the workmanship of a chariot wheel; their axle pins, their rims, their spokes, and their hubs were all of cast bronze.

As rodas eram feitas como rodas de carros; os eixos, os aros, os raios e os cubos eram todos de metal fundido.

34 A nd there were four supports at the four corners of each cart; its supports were part of the cart itself.

Havia quatro cabos que se projetavam do carrinho, um em cada canto.

35 O n the top of the cart, at the height of half a cubit, it was perfectly round. And on the top of the cart, its flanges and its panels were of the same casting.

No alto do carrinho havia uma lâmina circular de vinte e dois centímetros de altura. Os apoios e as placas estavam fixados no alto do carrinho.

36 O n the plates of its flanges and on its panels he engraved cherubim, lions, and palm trees, wherever there was a clear space on each, with wreaths all around.

Ele esculpiu figuras de querubins, leões e tamareiras na superfície dos apoios e nas placas, em cada espaço disponível, com grinaldas ao redor.

37 T hus he made the ten carts. All of them were of the same mold, one measure, and one shape.

Foi assim que fez os dez carrinhos. Foram todos fundidos nos mesmos moldes e eram idênticos no tamanho e na forma.

38 T hen he made ten lavers of bronze; each laver contained forty baths, and each laver was four cubits. On each of the ten carts was a laver.

Depois ele fez dez pias de bronze, cada uma com capacidade de oitocentos litros, medindo um metro e oitenta centímetros de diâmetro; uma pia para cada um dos dez carrinhos.

39 A nd he put five carts on the right side of the house, and five on the left side of the house. He set the Sea on the right side of the house, toward the southeast. Furnishings of the Temple

Ele pôs cinco carrinhos no lado sul do templo e cinco no lado norte. Pôs o tanque no lado sul, no canto sudeste do templo.

40 H uram made the lavers and the shovels and the bowls. So Huram finished doing all the work that he was to do for King Solomon for the house of the Lord:

Também fez os jarros, as pás e as bacias para aspersão. Assim, Hurão completou todo o trabalho de que fora encarregado pelo rei Salomão, no templo do Senhor:

41 t he two pillars, the two bowl-shaped capitals that were on top of the two pillars; the two networks covering the two bowl-shaped capitals which were on top of the pillars;

as duas colunas; os dois capitéis em forma de taça no alto das colunas; os dois conjuntos de correntes que decoravam os dois capitéis;

42 f our hundred pomegranates for the two networks (two rows of pomegranates for each network, to cover the two bowl-shaped capitals that were on top of the pillars);

as quatrocentas romãs para os dois conjuntos de correntes, sendo duas fileiras de romãs para cada conjunto;

43 t he ten carts, and ten lavers on the carts;

os dez carrinhos com as suas dez pias;

44 o ne Sea, and twelve oxen under the Sea;

o tanque e os doze touros debaixo dele;

45 t he pots, the shovels, and the bowls. All these articles which Huram made for King Solomon for the house of the Lord were of burnished bronze.

e os jarros, as pás e as bacias de aspersão. Todos esses utensílios que Hurão fez a pedido do rei Salomão para o templo do Senhor eram de bronze polido.

46 I n the plain of Jordan the king had them cast in clay molds, between Succoth and Zaretan.

Foi na planície do Jordão, entre Sucote e Zaretã, que o rei os mandou fundir, em moldes de barro.

47 A nd Solomon did not weigh all the articles, because there were so many; the weight of the bronze was not determined.

Salomão não mandou pesar esses utensílios; eram tantos que o peso do bronze não foi determinado.

48 T hus Solomon had all the furnishings made for the house of the Lord: the altar of gold, and the table of gold on which was the showbread;

Além desses, Salomão mandou fazer também estes outros utensílios para o templo do Senhor: O altar de ouro; a mesa de ouro sobre a qual ficavam os pães da Presença;

49 t he lampstands of pure gold, five on the right side and five on the left in front of the inner sanctuary, with the flowers and the lamps and the wick-trimmers of gold;

os candelabros de ouro puro, cinco à direita e cinco à esquerda, em frente do santuário interno; as flores, as lâmpadas e as tenazes de ouro;

50 t he basins, the trimmers, the bowls, the ladles, and the censers of pure gold; and the hinges of gold, both for the doors of the inner room (the Most Holy Place ) and for the doors of the main hall of the temple.

as bacias, os cortadores de pavio, as bacias para aspersão, as tigelas e os incensários; e as dobradiças de ouro para as portas da sala interna, isto é, o Lugar Santíssimo, e também para as portas do átrio principal.

51 S o all the work that King Solomon had done for the house of the Lord was finished; and Solomon brought in the things which his father David had dedicated: the silver and the gold and the furnishings. He put them in the treasuries of the house of the Lord.

Terminada toda a obra que Salomão realizou para o templo do Senhor, ele trouxe tudo o que seu pai havia consagrado e colocou junto com os tesouros do templo do Senhor: a prata, o ouro e os utensílios.
