1 Kings 6

NEW JERUSALEM	NOVA VULGATA
1 In the four hundred and eightieth year after the Israelites came out of Egypt, in the fourth year ofSolomon's reign over Israel, in the month of Ziv, which is the second month, he began building the Temple ofYahweh.	1 Factum est igitur quadringente simo et octogesimo anno egres sionis filiorum Israel de terra Aegypti, in anno quarto, mense Ziv — ipse est mensis secundus — regni Salomonis super Israel, aedificare coepit domum Domino.
2 The temple which King Solomon built for Yahweh was sixty cubits long, twenty cubits wide and twenty-five high.	2 Domus autem, quam aedificabat rex Salomon Domino, habebat sexaginta cubitos in longitudine et viginti cubitos in latitudine et triginta cubitos in altitudine.
3 The portico in front of the Hekal of the Temple was twenty cubits long across the width of the Templeand ten cubits wide along the length of the Temple.	3 Et porticus erat ante templum viginti cubitorum longitudinis iuxta mensuram latitudinis templi et habebat decem cubitos latitudinis ante faciem templi.
4 He made windows for the Temple with frames and latticework.	4 Fecitque in templo fenestras cum marginibus et cancellis.
5 He also built an annex against the Temple wal , right round the Hekal and Debir. He built lateral storeysal round;	5 Et aedificavit contra parietem templi tabulata per gyrum in parietibus domus per circuitum templi et Dabir et fecit latera in circuitu.
6 the lowest lateral storey was five cubits wide, the middle one six cubits, and the third seven cubits, for hehad made the outside of the Temple wal correspondingly stepped back al round, so that the annex was notattached to the Temple wal s.	6 Tabulatum, quod subter erat, quinque cubitos habebat latitudinis et medium tabulatum sex cubitorum latitudinis et tertium tabulatum septem habens cubitos latitudinis; gradus enim posuit in domo per circuitum forinsecus, ut non ingrederentur trabes in muros templi.
7 (The building of the Temple was done with quarry -- dressed stone; no sound of hammer or pick or anyiron tool was to be heard in the Temple while it was being built.)	7 Domus autem cum aedificaretur, lapidibus dedolatis atque perfectis aedificata est; et malleus et securis et omne ferramentum non sunt audita in domo, cum aedificaretur.
8 The entrance to the lowest storey was at the right-hand corner of the Temple; access to the middlestorey was by a spiral staircase, and so from the middle storey to the third.	8 Ostium lateris inferioris in parte erat domus dextrae, et per cochleam ascendebant in medium latus et a medio in tertium.
9 Having finished building the Temple, he roofed the Temple with a coffered ceiling of cedar wood.	9 Et aedificavit domum et consummavit eam; texit quoque domum laquearibus cedrinis.
10 Round the outside of the Temple he then built the annex which was five cubits high and was joined tothe Temple by cedar-wood beams.	10 Aedificavit ergo stratum contra omnem domum quinque cubitis altitudinis et iunxit domui lignis cedrinis.
11 And the word of Yahweh came to Solomon,	11 Et factus est sermo Domini ad Salomonem dicens:
12 'With regard to this temple which you are now building, if you follow my statutes and obey myordinances and faithful y follow my commandments, I shal fulfil the promise which I made about you to yourfather David.	12 “ Domus haec, quam aedificas, si ambulaveris in praeceptis meis et iudicia mea feceris et custodieris omnia mandata mea gradiens per ea, firmabo sermonem meum tibi, quem locutus sum ad David patrem tuum;
13 And I shal make my home among the Israelites and never forsake Israel my people.'	13 et habitabo in medio filiorum Israel et non derelinquam populum meum Israel ”.
14 Solomon finished building the Temple.	14 Igitur aedificavit Salomon domum et consummavit eam.
15 He lined the inside of the Temple wal s with panels of cedar wood-panelling them on the inside fromthe floor of the Temple to the beams of the ceiling -- and laid the floor of the Temple with juniper planks.	15 Et aedificavit parietes domus intrinsecus tabulis cedrinis; a pavimento domus usque ad summitatem parietum et usque ad laquearia operuit lignis intrinsecus et texit pavimentum domus tabulis abiegnis.
16 The twenty cubits measured from the end of the Temple he built of cedar planks from the floor to thebeams, and this part was reserved as the Debir, the Holy of Holies.	16 Aedificavitque viginti cubitorum a posteriore parte templi tabulis cedrinis a pavimento usque ad superiora; et fecit ei intrinsecus Dabir, id est sancta sanctorum.
17 The Temple measured forty cubits -- the Hekal -- in front of the Debir.	17 Porro quadraginta cubitorum erat ipsum templum ante illud.
18 There was cedar wood round the inside of the Temple, ornamentally carved with gourds and rosettes;al was cedar wood, with no stone showing.	18 Et cedrus in domo intrinsecus sculptas habebat colocynthidas et calices apertos florum. Omnia cedrinis tabulis vestiebantur, nec omnino lapis apparere poterat in pariete.
19 In the inner part of the Temple he designed a Debir, to contain the ark of the covenant of Yahweh.	19 Dabir autem in medio domus in interiori parte fecerat, ut poneret ibi arcam foederis Domini.
20 The Debir was twenty cubits long, twenty cubits wide, and twenty high, and he overlaid it on the insidewith pure gold. He made an altar of cedar wood	20 Habebat viginti cubitos longitudinis et viginti cubitos latitudinis et viginti cubitos altitudinis; et vestivit illud auro purissimo et fecit altare cedrinum ante Dabir.
21 in front of the Debir and overlaid it with gold.	21 Domum quoque operuit Salomon intrinsecus auro purissimo et posuit catenas aureas ante Dabir.
22 He overlaid the whole Temple with gold, the whole Temple entirely.	22 Nihilque erat in templo, quod non auro tegeretur; sed et totum altare Dabir texit auro.
23 In the Debir he made two great winged creatures of wild-olive wood. . .It was ten cubits high.	23 Et fecit in Dabir duos cherubim de lignis oleastri decem cubitorum altitudinis.
24 One winged creature's wing was five cubits long and the other wing five cubits: ten cubits from wing tipto wing tip.	24 Quinque cubitorum ala cherub una et quinque cubitorum ala cherub altera, id est decem cubitos habentes a summitate alae unius usque ad alae alterius summitatem.
25 The other winged creature also measured ten cubits; both had the same measurements and the sameshape.	25 Decem quoque cubitorum erat cherub secundus, mensura par et effigies una erat duobus cherubim;
26 The height of one was the same as the other's.	26 altitudinem habebat unus cherub decem cubitorum et similiter cherub secundus.
27 He placed them in the middle of the inner chamber; their wings were spread out so that the wing of onetouched one of the wal s and the wing of the other touched the other wall, while their wings met in the middle ofthe chamber wing to wing.	27 Posuitque cherubim in medio templi interioris; extendebant autem alas suas cherubim, et tangebat ala una parietem et ala cherub secundi tangebat parietem alterum; alae autem alterae in media parte templi se invicem contingebant.
28 And he overlaid them with gold.	28 Texit quoque cherubim auro.
29 Al round the Temple wal s he carved figures of winged creatures, palm trees and rosettes, both insideand outside.	29 Et omnes parietes templi per circuitum scalpsit variis caelaturis; et fecit in eis cherubim et palmas et calices apertos florum intrinsecus et foras.
30 He overlaid the floor of the Temple with gold, both inside and outside.	30 Sed et pavimentum domus texit auro intrinsecus et extrinsecus.
31 He made the door of the Debir with uprights of wild-olive wood, and door jambs with five indentedsections,	31 Et pro ingressu Dabir fecit valvas de lignis oleastri postesque cum marginibus quinque.
32 and the two leaves of wild-olive wood. He carved figures of great winged creatures, palm trees androsettes which he overlaid with gold, and he gilded winged creatures and palm trees.	32 Et in duabus valvis de lignis oleastri scalpsit cherubim et palmas et calices apertos florum et vestivit ea auro operiens tam cherubim quam palmas et cetera auro.
33 Similarly, he made uprights of wild-olive wood for the door of the Hekal, and door jambs with fourindented sections,	33 Fecitque eodem modo pro introitu templi postes cum quattuor marginibus de lignis oleastri
34 and the two leaves of juniper: one leaf had two ribs binding it, and the other had two ribs binding it.	34 et duas valvas de lignis abiegnis; et utraque valva duplex erat et versatilis.
35 He carved winged creatures, palm trees and rosettes, which he overlaid with gold laid evenly over thecarvings.	35 Et scalpsit cherubim et palmas et calices apertos florum operuitque omnia laminis aureis.
36 He built the wal of the inner court in three courses of dressed stone and one course of cedar beams.	36 Et aedificavit atrium interius tribus ordinibus lapidum politorum et uno ordine lignorum cedri.
37 In the fourth year, in the month of Ziv, the foundations of the Temple were laid;	37 Anno quarto fundata est domus Domini in mense Ziv;
38 in the eleventh year, in the month of Bul -- that is, the eighth month -- the Temple was completedexactly as it had been planned and designed. Solomon took seven years to build it.	38 et in anno undecimo, mense Bul — ipse est mensis octavus — perfecta est domus in omni opere suo et in universis utensilibus; aedificavitque eam annis septem.
