Regum I 7

VULGATA	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 Domum autem suam ædificavit Salomon tredecim annis, et ad perfectum usque perduxit.	1 Now Solomon built his own house for thirteen years, and he brought it to perfection.
2 Ædificavit quoque domum saltus Libani centum cubitorum longitudinis, et quinquaginta cubitorum latitudinis, et triginta cubitorum altitudinis : et quatuor deambulacra inter columnas cedrinas : ligna quippe cedrina exciderat in columnas.	2 And he built the house from the forest of Lebanon: one hundred cubits in length, and fifty cubits in width, and thirty cubits in height, with four walkways between columns of cedar. For he had hewn the cedar trees into columns.
3 Et tabulatis cedrinis vestivit totam cameram, quæ quadraginta quinque columnis sustentabatur. Unus autem ordo habebat columnas quindecim	3 And he clothed the entire vaulted room with panels of cedar. And it was supported by forty-five columns. Now one row held fifteen columns,
4 contra se invicem positas,	4 each positioned opposite another,
5 et e regione se respicientes, æquali spatio inter columnas, et super columnas quadrangulata ligna in cunctis æqualia.	5 and looking toward one another, with equal spacing between the columns. And above the columns there were square beams equal in all things.
6 Et porticum columnarum fecit quinquaginta cubitorum longitudinis, et triginta cubitorum latitudinis : et alteram porticum in facie majoris porticus : et columnas, et epistylia super columnas.	6 And he made a portico of columns, fifty cubits in length and thirty cubits in width, and another portico, facing the greater portico, with columns and with crossbeams upon the columns.
7 Porticum quoque solii, in qua tribunal est, fecit : et texit lignis cedrinis a pavimento usque ad summitatem.	7 He also made the portico of the throne, in which is the tribunal. And he overlaid it with cedar wood, from the floor even to the summit.
8 Et domuncula, in qua sedebatur ad judicandum, erat in media porticu simili opere. Domum quoque fecit filiæ Pharaonis (quam uxorem duxerat Salomon) tali opere, quali et hanc porticum.	8 And in the midst of the portico, there was a small house, where he would sit in judgment, similar in workmanship. He also made a house for the daughter of Pharaoh (whom Solomon had taken as wife) of the same work and type as this portico.
9 Omnia lapidibus pretiosis, qui ad normam quamdam atque mensuram tam intrinsecus quam extrinsecus serrati erant : a fundamento usque ad summitatem parietum, et extrinsecus usque ad atrium majus.	9 All was of precious stones, which had been sawed by a particular standard and measure, as much within as without, from the foundation even to the summit of the walls, and outside even to the great atrium.
10 Fundamenta autem de lapidibus pretiosis, lapidibus magnis, decem sive octo cubitorum.	10 Now the foundations were of precious stones: great stones of eight or ten cubits.
11 Et desuper lapides pretiosi æqualis mensuræ secti erant, similiterque de cedro.	11 And above these, there were precious stones, of equal measure, which had been cut in a manner similar to boards of cedar.
12 Et atrium majus rotundum trium ordinum de lapidibus sectis, et unius ordinis de dolata cedro : necnon et in atrio domus Domini interiori, et in porticu domus.	12 And the great atrium was round, with three rows of cut stones and one row of cut cedar, even as it also was in the interior atrium of the house of the Lord, and in the portico of the house.
13 Misit quoque rex Salomon, et tulit Hiram de Tyro,	13 And king Solomon sent and brought Hiram of Tyre,
14 filium mulieris viduæ de tribu Nephthali, patre Tyrio, artificem ærarium, et plenum sapientia, et intelligentia, et doctrina, ad faciendum omne opus ex ære. Qui cum venisset ad regem Salomonem, fecit omne opus ejus.	14 the son of a widowed woman, from the tribe of Naphtali, whose father was a Tyrian, an artisan in brass, and full of wisdom, and understanding, and knowledge in order to form every work of brass. And when he had gone to king Solomon, he wrought all his work.
15 Et finxit duas columnas æreas, decem et octo cubitorum altitudinis columnam unam : et linea duodecim cubitorum ambiebat columnam utramque.	15 And he cast two columns of brass. Each column was eighteen cubits in height, and a line of twelve cubits encompassed both columns.
16 Duo quoque capitella fecit, quæ ponerentur super capita columnarum, fusilia ex ære : quinque cubitorum altitudinis capitellum unum, et quinque cubitorum altitudinis capitellum alterum :	16 Also, he made two heads of molten brass, which would be set upon the tops of the columns: one head was five cubits in height, and the other head was five cubits in height.
17 et quasi in modum retis, et catenarum sibi invicem miro opere contextarum. Utrumque capitellum columnarum fusile erat : septena versuum retiacula in capitello uno, et septena retiacula in capitello altero.	17 And there was something like a network of chains, woven together in a wonderful manner. Both heads of the columns were cast, and seven rows of little nets traversed one head, and seven little nets were on the other head.
18 Et perfecit columnas, et duos ordines per circuitum retiaculorum singulorum, ut tegerent capitella quæ erant super summitatem, malogranatorum : eodem modo fecit et capitello secundo.	18 And he finished the columns with two rows all around each network, so that these covered the heads, which were at the top, with pomegranates. And he did in like manner to the second head.
19 Capitella autem quæ erant super capita columnarum, quasi opere lilii fabricata erant in porticu quatuor cubitorum.	19 Now the heads that were at the top of the columns, in the portico of four cubits, had been fabricated with a work of lilies.
20 Et rursum alia capitella in summitate columnarum desuper juxta mensuram columnæ contra retiacula : malogranatorum autem ducenti ordines erant in circuitu capitelli secundi.	20 And again, there were other heads at the tops of the columns above, in accord with the measure of the column opposite the netting. And there were two hundred of the pomegranates, in rows around the second head.
21 Et statuit duas columnas in porticu templi : cumque statuisset columnam dexteram, vocavit eam nomine Jachin : similiter erexit columnam secundam, et vocavit nomen ejus Booz.	21 And he stationed the two columns in the portico of the temple. And when he had stationed the column on the right, he called its name Jachin. Similarly, he erected the second column, and he called its name Boaz.
22 Et super capita columnarum opus in modum lilii posuit : perfectumque est opus columnarum.	22 And above the tops of the columns, he set a work in the manner of lilies. And the work of the columns was perfected.
23 Fecit quoque mare fusile decem cubitorum a labio usque ad labium, rotundum in circuitu : quinque cubitorum altitudo ejus, et resticula triginta cubitorum cingebat illud per circuitum.	23 He also made a molten sea, of ten cubits from brim to brim, rounded on all sides. Its height was five cubits, and a thin rope of thirty cubits wrapped it all around.
24 Et sculptura subter labium circuibat illud decem cubitis ambiens mare : duo ordines sculpturarum striatarum erant fusiles.	24 And a sculpted work under the brim encircled it for ten cubits going around the sea. There were two rows cast of striated sculptures.
25 Et stabat super duodecim boves, e quibus tres respiciebant ad aquilonem, et tres ad occidentem, et tres ad meridiem, et tres ad orientem : et mare super eos desuper erat : quorum posteriora universa intrinsecus latitabant.	25 And it was standing upon twelve oxen, of which three were looking toward the north, and three toward the west, and three toward the south, and three toward the east. And the sea above was over them. And their posteriors were entirely hidden within.
26 Grossitudo autem luteris, trium unciarum erat : labiumque ejus quasi labium calicis, et folium repandi lilii : duo millia batos capiebat.	26 And the basin was the thickness of three twelfths. And its brim was like the brim of a chalice, or like the outturned petal of a lily. It contained two thousand baths.
27 Et fecit decem bases æneas, quatuor cubitorum longitudinis bases singulas, et quatuor cubitorum latitudinis, et trium cubitorum altitudinis.	27 And he made ten bases of brass: each base was four cubits in length, and four cubits in width, and three cubits in height.
28 Et ipsum opus basium, interrasile erat : et sculpturæ inter juncturas.	28 And the work itself of the bases was engraved; and there were sculptures between the junctures.
29 Et inter coronulas et plectas, leones et boves et cherubim, et in juncturis similiter desuper : et subter leones et boves, quasi lora ex ære dependentia.	29 And between the little crowns and the edges, there were lions, and oxen, and cherubim; and similarly in the junctures above. And under the lions and oxen were something like bands of brass hanging down.
30 Et quatuor rotæ per bases singulas, et axes ærei : et per quatuor partes quasi humeruli subter luterem fusiles, contra se invicem respectantes.	30 And each base had four wheels, with axels of brass. And at the four sides were something like little arms, under the cast basin, facing away from one another.
31 Os quoque luteris intrinsecus erat in capitis summitate : et quod forinsecus apparebat, unius cubiti erat totum rotundum, pariterque habebat unum cubitum et dimidium : in angulis autem columnarum variæ cælaturæ erant : et media intercolumnia, quadrata non rotunda.	31 Also, the mouth of the interior of the basin was at the top of the head. And what was visible outside was of one cubit all around, and altogether it had one cubit and a half. Now at the corners of the columns were diverse engravings. And the spaces between the columns were square, not round.
32 Quatuor quoque rotæ quæ per quatuor angulos basis erant, cohærebant sibi subter basim : una rota habebat altitudinis cubitum et semis.	32 And the four wheels, which were at the four corners of the base, were joined to one another under the base. The height of one wheel held one cubit and a half.
33 Tales autem rotæ erant quales solent in curru fieri : et axes earum, et radii, et canthi, et modioli, omnia fusilia.	33 Now these were the kind of wheels such as are often made for a chariot. And their axels, and spokes, and tires, and centers were all cast.
34 Nam et humeruli illi quatuor per singulos angulos basis unius, ex ipsa basi fusiles et conjuncti erant.	34 And the four little arms, which were at each corner of a base, were cast and joined together as part of the base itself.
35 In summitate autem basis erat quædam rotunditas dimidii cubiti, ita fabrefacta ut luter desuper posset imponi, habens cælaturas suas, variasque sculpturas ex semetipsa.	35 And at the summit of the base, there was a round stand of one half cubit, fabricated so that the basin could be placed upon it, having its engravings, and various sculptures of its own.
36 Sculpsit quoque in tabulatis illis quæ erant ex ære, et in angulis, cherubim, et leones, et palmas, quasi in similitudinem hominis stantis, ut non cælata, sed apposita per circuitum viderentur.	36 He also engraved those plates, which were of brass. And at the corners were cherubim, and lions, and palm trees, standing out, as if in the likeness of a man, so that they seemed not to be engraved, but placed adjacent on all sides.
37 In hunc modum fecit decem bases, fusura una, et mensura, sculpturaque consimili.	37 In this manner, he made ten bases with the same casting and measure, and very similar engravings.
38 Fecit quoque decem luteres æneos : quadraginta batos capiebat luter unus, eratque quatuor cubitorum : singulos quoque luteres per singulas, id est, decem bases, posuit.	38 He also made ten hand basins of brass. One hand basin contained four baths, and was of four cubits. And each basin he set upon a base, which is ten bases.
39 Et constituit decem bases, quinque ad dexteram partem templi, et quinque ad sinistram : mare autem posuit ad dexteram partem templi contra orientem ad meridiem.	39 And he stationed the ten bases, five to the right side of the temple, and five to the left. And the sea he placed to the right side of the temple, opposite the east, toward the south.
40 Fecit ergo Hiram lebetes, et scutras, et hamulas, et perfecit omne opus regis Salomonis in templo Domini.	40 Then Hiram made cooking pots, and trays, and small hooks. And he completed all the work of king Solomon in the temple of the Lord:
41 Columnas duas, et funiculos capitellorum super capitella columnarum duos : et retiacula duo, ut operirent duos funiculos qui erant super capita columnarum.	41 the two columns, and the two cords of the heads over the tops of the columns, and the two networks which covered the two cords that were above the tops of the columns;
42 Et malogranata quadringenta in duobus retiaculis : duos versus malogranatorum in retiaculis singulis, ad operiendos funiculos capitellorum qui erant super capita columnarum.	42 and the four hundred pomegranates for the two networks, two turnings of pomegranates for each network, in order to cover the cords of the heads, which were above the tops of the columns;
43 Et bases decem, et luteres decem super bases.	43 and the ten bases, and the ten basins on the bases;
44 Et mare unum, et boves duodecim subter mare.	44 and the one sea, and the twelve oxen under the sea;
45 Et lebetes, et scutras, et hamulas, omnia vasa quæ fecit Hiram regi Salomoni in domo Domini, de auricalco erant.	45 and the cooking pots, and the trays, and the small hooks. All of the items that Hiram made for king Solomon, for the house of the Lord, were of golden brass.
46 In campestri regione Jordanis fudit ea rex in argillosa terra, inter Sochoth et Sarthan.	46 In the open regions near the Jordan, the king cast these, in the clay soil between Succoth and Zarethan.
47 Et posuit Salomon omnia vasa : propter multitudinem autem nimiam non erat pondus æris.	47 And Solomon positioned all the items. But because of its exceedingly great amount, the brass was not weighed.
48 Fecitque Salomon omnia vasa in domo Domini : altare aureum, et mensam super quam ponerentur panes propositionis, auream :	48 And Solomon made all the furniture for the house of the Lord: the altar of gold, and the table of gold, upon which the bread of the presence would be placed;
49 et candelabra aurea, quinque ad dexteram, et quinque ad sinistram contra oraculum, ex auro puro : et quasi lilii flores, et lucernas desuper aureas : et forcipes aureos,	49 and the gold lampstands, five to the right, and five to the left, opposite the oracle, of pure gold; and likenesses of lily blossoms, with lamps above them, of gold; and gold tongs;
50 et hydrias, et fuscinulas, et phialas, et mortariola, et thuribula, de auro purissimo : et cardines ostiorum domus interioris Sancti sanctorum, et ostiorum domus templi, ex auro erant.	50 and waters pots, and little forks, and bowls, and little mortars, and censers, of the purest gold; and the hinges of the doors, for the interior house of the Holy of Holies and for the doors of the house of the temple, which were of gold.
51 Et perfecit omne opus quod faciebat Salomon in domo Domini, et intulit quæ sanctificaverat David pater suus, argentum, et aurum, et vasa, reposuitque in thesauris domus Domini.	51 And Solomon perfected all the work that he was doing in the house of the Lord. And he brought in the things that his father David had sanctified: the silver, and the gold, and the vessels. And he stored these in the treasuries of the house of the Lord.
