1 T hen he made a brass altar. It was ten steps long, and ten steps wide, and three times taller than a man.

وَصَنَعَ سُلَيْمانُ مَذبَحاً مِنْ بُرونْزٍ طُولُهُ عِشرُونَ ذِراعاً، وَعَرضُهُ عِشرُونَ ذِراعاً، وَارتِفاعُهُ عَشرُ أذرُعٍ.

2 H e melted brass and made a pool. It was round, and five long steps from one side to the other. It was as tall as a man can raise his hand. And it took fifteen steps to walk around it.

ثُمَّ صَنَعَ خَزّاناً كَبِيراً مُستَدِيراً مِنْ بُرونْزٍ مَسبُوكٍ قُطرُهُ عَشْرُ أذرُعٍ وَطُولُهُ خَمسَ أذرُعٍ وَمُحِيطُهُ ثَلاثِينَ ذِراعاً.

3 T here were objects that looked like oxen under the pool and all around it, (ten long steps around it). The oxen were in two rows, and were made of one piece.

وَتَحتَ حافَّةِ الخَزّانِ البُرونْزِيِّ سُبِكَتْ صُوَرٌ لِثِيرانٍ فِي صَفِّينِ بِطُولِ عَشْرُ أذرُعٍ حَولَ الخَزّانِ.

4 T he pool was put on the twelve oxen. Three had their faces toward the north, three toward the west, three toward the south, and three toward the east. The pool was put on top of them. All their tails were toward the center.

وَانتَصَبَ الخَزّانُ فَوقَ تَماثِيلِ الثِّيرانِ الاثنَي عَشَرَ. وَكانَتْ وُجُوهُ ثَلاثَةِ ثِيرانٍ نَحوَ الشِّمالِ، وَثَلاثَةٍ نَحوَ الغَربِ، وَثَلاثَةٍ نَحوَ الجَنُوبِ، وَثَلاثَةٍ نَحوَ الشَّرقِ. فَارتَكَزَ الخَزّانُ عَلَيها، وَهِيَ تَقفُ وَظُهُورُها نَحوَ الدّاخِلِ.

5 T he brass of the pool was as thick as a hand is wide. Its round top was made like the top of a cup, like a lily flower. It could hold 22, 000 bottles of water.

أمّا سُمْكُ الخَزّانِ فَكانَ شِبْراً واحِداً. وَكانَتِ القَناةُ المُحِيطَةُ بِالخَزّانِ أشبَهَ بِحافَّةِ كَأْسٍ، أوْ وُرَيقاتِ زَهْرَةٍ. وَيَتَّسِعُ الخَزَّانُ لِنَحْوِ ثَلاثَةِ آلافِ صَفِيحَةٍ.

6 H e made ten pots in which to wash. He put five on the right side and five on the left side. They were to wash what was used for the burnt gifts. But the pool was for the religious leaders to wash in.

وَصَنَعَ عَشْرَةَ أحْواضٍ لِغَسلِ الأدَواتِ الَّتِي تُسْتَخْدَمُ لِتَقْدِيمِ التَّقْدِماتِ وَالذَّبائِحِ. وَضَعَ خَمسَةً مِنها عَنْ يَمِينِ الخَزّانِ الكَبِيرِ وَخَمسَةً عَنْ يَسارِهِ. أمّا الخَزّانُ الكَبِيرُ فَلاغْتِسالِ الكَهَنَةِ قَبلَ تَقديمِهِمْ للذَّبائِحِ.

7 T hen he made ten gold lamp-stands, as was shown in the plan. He put them in the house of God, five on the right side and five on the left.

وَصَنَعَ سُلَيْمانُ عَشَرَ منائِرَ مِنَ الذَّهَبِ حَسَبَ التَّصمِيمِ الَّذِي وُضِعَ لَها. وَوَضَعَها فِي الهَيكَلِ – خَمسَ مَنائِرَ إلَى اليَمِينِ وَخَمسَاً إلَى اليَسارِ.

8 H e made ten tables and put them in the house of God. Five were on the right side and five on the left. And he made 100 deep dishes out of gold.

وَصَنَعَ أيضاً عَشْرَ مَوائِدَ وَوَضَعَها فِي الهَيكَلِ: خَمسَ مَوائِدَ إلَى اليَمِين وَخَمساً إلَى اليَسار. وَصَنَعَ مِئَةَ طاسَةٍ مِنَ الذَّهَبِ.

9 T hen he made the open space of the religious leaders, the large open space, and the doors for the open space. And he covered their doors with brass.

وَأقامَ أيضاً ساحَةَ الكَهَنَةِ وَالسّاحَةَ الكَبيرَةِ وَأبوابَهُما. وَغَشَّى الأبوابَ الَّتِي تُفضِي إلَى السّاحَةِ بِالبُرونْزِ.

10 H e set the pool at the south-east corner of the house.

ثُمَّ وَضَعَ الخَزّانَ الكَبيرَ عَنْ يَمِينِ بَيتِ اللهِ، في الجانبِ الجَنُوبِيِّ.

11 T hen Huram made the pails, the tools for digging, and the pots. So Huram finished the work of God’s house that he did for King Solomon.

وَعَمِلَ حُورامُ القُدُورَ وَالمَجارِفَ وَالطّاساتِ. وَأكمَلَ العَمَلَ الَّذِي كَلَّفَهُ به سُلَيْمانُ فِي بَيتِ اللهِ.

12 H e finished making the two pillars, the pots, and the two pieces on top of the pillars. He finished the two networks to cover the two pots of the pieces on top of the pillars.

صَنَعَ حُورامُ العَمُودَيْنِ وَالتّاجَيْنِ الكَبيرَيْنِ عَلَى الجُزأيْنِ العُلْويَّينِ مِنَ العَمُودَيْنِ. وَصَنَعَ صَفَّيْنِ مِنَ الزِّينَةِ يُغَطِّيانِ التّاجَيْنِ الكَبِيرَيْنِ عَلَى الجُزأيْنِ العُلْوِيَّينِ مِنَ العَمُودَيْنِ،

13 H e finished the 400 pomegranates for the two networks. There were two rows of pomegranates for each network, to cover the two pots of the pieces on top of the pillars.

وَأربَعَ مِئَةِ رُمّانَةٍ لِشَبَكَتَيِّ الزِّينَة. فَكانَ هُناكَ صَفّانِ مِنَ الرُّمّانِ لِشَبَكَتَيِّ الزّينَةِ. وَغَطَّتِ الشَّبَكَتانِ التّاجَيْنِ الكَبيرَينِ عَلَى الجُزأينِ العُلوِيَّين منَ العَمُودَينِ.

14 H e made the stands and he made the pots on the stands.

وَصَنَعَ الأحْواضَ وَالقَواعِدَ الَّتِي تَحتَها.

15 H e made the one pool with the twelve oxen under it.

وَصَنَعَ الخَزّانَ الكَبِيرَ وَالاثنَي عَشَرَ ثَوراً تَحتَ الخَزّانِ.

16 H uram-abi made the pails, the tools for digging, the meat-hooks, and all their objects. He made them of shining brass for King Solomon for the house of the Lord.

وَصَنَعَ مِنْ بُرونْزٍ مَصقُولٍ القُدُورَ وَالمَجارِفَ وَالمَناشِلَ وَكُلَّ الأدَواتِ الَّتِي أوكَلَهُ المَلكُ سُلَيْمانُ بِصُنْعِها لِبَيتِ اللهِ.

17 T he king had them made on the plain of the Jordan, in the clay ground between Succoth and Zeredah.

سَكَبَ المَلِكُ سُلَيْمانُ هَذِهِ الأدَواتِ فِي قَوالِبَ خَزَفيَّةٍ صُنِعَتْ فِي وادِي الأُردُنِّ بَينَ سَكُّوتَ وَصَرَدَةَ.

18 S olomon made so many of these objects that the weight of the brass could not be known.

وَصَنَعَ سُلَيْمانُ عَدَداً كَبِيراً جدّاً مِنْ هَذِه الأدَواتِ حَتَّى إنَّ أحَداً لَمْ يُحاوِلْ أنْ يَزِنَ البُرونْزَ الَّذي استَخدَمَهُ.

19 S olomon made all the things that were in the house of God. He made the gold altar, and the tables for the holy bread.

وَصَنَعَ لَوازِمَ بَيتِ اللهِ. فَصَنَعَ المَذبَحَ الذَّهَبِيَّ وَالمَوائِدَ لِخُبْزِ حَضرَةِ اللهِ.

20 H e made the lamp-stands with their lamps of pure gold, to burn in front of the most holy place in the way given.

وَصَنَعَ المَنائِرَ وَسُرُجَها مِنْ ذَهَبٍ نَقِيٍّ لِتُضِيءَ أمامَ قُدْسِ الأقداسِ فِي الدّاخلِ حَسَبَ التَّصمِيمِ المَرسُومِ.

21 H e made the flowers, the lamps and their objects of pure gold.

وَصَنَعَ الأزهارَ وَالمَنائِرَ وَالمَلاقِطَ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ نَقِيٍّ.

22 H e made the things to put out the lamps, the pots and the fire-holders of pure gold. And he made the front of the house, its inside doors for the most holy place, and the doors of the holy place, all of gold.

وَصَنَعَ أدَواتِ التَّشذِيبِ وَالطّاساتِ وَالصُّحُونَ وَالمَباخرَ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ نَقِيٍّ. وَصَنَعَ أبوابَ الهَيكَلِ وَالأبوابَ الدّاخِلِيَّةَ لِقُدسِ الأقداسِ وَأبوابَ الحُجْرَةِ الرَّئِيسيَّةِ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ نَقِيٍّ.
