2 Chronicles 3

KING JAMES BIBLE	BIBLES DES PEUPLES
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.	1 Salomon commença à bâtir la Maison de Yahvé à Jérusalem sur le Mont Moriya où David son père avait eu une vision, à l’endroit que David avait réservé sur l’aire d’Ornan le Jébusite.
2 And he began to build in the second day of the second month, in the fourth year of his reign.	2 Salomon commença la construction le deuxième mois de la quatrième année de son règne.
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.	3 La Maison que Salomon construisait était longue de 60 coudées (en ancienne coudée) et large de 20 coudées.
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.	4 Le vestibule sur le devant mesurait 20 coudées dans le sens de la largeur de la Maison; sa hauteur était de 120 coudées. Salomon recouvrit l’intérieur d’or pur.
5 And the greater house he cieled with fir tree, which he overlaid with fine gold, and set thereon palm trees and chains.	5 Il garnit la grande salle de bois de cyprès recouvert d’or pur; il la décora de palmes et de festons.
6 And he garnished the house with precious stones for beauty: and the gold was gold of Parvaim.	6 Il rehaussa la construction de pierres précieuses d’une grande beauté; l’or venait de Parvayim.
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.	7 Il en recouvrit la maison: poutres, seuils, murs et portes. Sur les murs il fit graver des chérubins.
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.	8 Puis il construisit le Saint des Saints; sa profondeur, faisant suite à la grande salle, était de 20 coudées et sa largeur de 20 coudées; il le revêtit de la valeur de 600 pièces d’or fin,
9 And the weight of the nails was fifty shekels of gold. And he overlaid the upper chambers with gold.	9 les clous en or pesaient 50 sicles. Il revêtit aussi les chambres hautes d’or fin.
10 And in the most holy house he made two cherubims of image work, and overlaid them with gold.	10 Dans le Saint des Saints il fit deux Chérubins en bois sculpté et les recouvrit d’or.
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.	11 La largeur des ailes des Chérubins était de 20 coudées, chaque aile mesurait cinq coudées, avec une aile qui touchait le mur de la pièce tandis que l’autre touchait celui de l’autre Chérubin.
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.	12 Ainsi une aile de Chérubin longue de cinq coudées touchait le mur de la pièce, la deuxième, longue de cinq coudées, touchait l’aile de l’autre Chérubin.
13 The wings of these cherubims spread themselves forth twenty cubits: and they stood on their feet, and their faces were inward.	13 Les ailes déployées de ces Chérubins mesuraient 20 coudées; ils étaient debout et regardaient vers la Maison.
14 And he made the vail of blue, and purple, and crimson, and fine linen, and wrought cherubims thereon.	14 Il fit le rideau de pourpre violette et de pourpre rouge, d’étoffe de couleur et de lin fin; il y fit broder des chérubins.
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.	15 Devant la grande salle il fit deux colonnes d’une hauteur de 35 coudées, et au sommet de chacune, un chapiteau mesurant cinq coudées.
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.	16 Il plaça des festons en haut des colonnes et 100 grenades qu’il fixa sur les festons.
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.	17 Il dressa les colonnes devant le Temple, l’une à droite, l’autre à gauche; à celle de droite il donna le nom de Yakin, à celle de gauche il donna le nom de Boaz.
