SAGRADA BIBLIAKING JAMES BIBLE
1 No ano quatrocentos e oitenta depois da saída dos filhos de Israel do Egito, Salomão, no quarto ano do seu reinado, no mês de Ziv, que é o segundo mês, empreendeu a construção do templo do Senhor.1 And it came to pass in the four hundred and eightieth year after the children of Israel were come out of the land of Egypt, in the fourth year of Solomon's reign over Israel, in the month Zif, which is the second month, that he began to build the house of the LORD.
2 O templo que o rei Salomão edificou ao Senhor tinha sessenta côvados de comprimento, vinte de largura e trinta de altura.2 And the house which king Solomon built for the LORD, the length thereof was threescore cubits, and the breadth thereof twenty cubits, and the height thereof thirty cubits.
3 O pórtico, à entrada do templo, tinha vinte côvados de comprimento, o que igualava a largura do templo, e dez côvados de largura na frente do edifício.3 And the porch before the temple of the house, twenty cubits was the length thereof, according to the breadth of the house; and ten cubits was the breadth thereof before the house.
4 O rei fez no templo janelas com grades de madeira.4 And for the house he made windows of narrow lights.
5 Construiu, encostados às paredes do edifício, andares que rodeavam o templo e o santuário. Cercou assim o edifício de quartos laterais.5 And against the wall of the house he built chambers round about, against the walls of the house round about, both of the temple and of the oracle: and he made chambers round about:
6 O andar inferior tinha cinco côvados de largura, o do meio seis e o terceiro sete, porque se tinham posto encostas nos muros exteriores do templo para evitar que as vigas entrassem nas paredes do edifício.6 The nethermost chamber was five cubits broad, and the middle was six cubits broad, and the third was seven cubits broad: for without in the wall of the house he made narrowed rests round about, that the beams should not be fastened in the walls of the house.
7 Na construção do templo só se empregaram pedras lavradas na pedreira, de sorte que não se ouvia durante os trabalhos da construção barulho algum de martelo, de cinzel ou de outro qualquer instrumento de ferro.7 And the house, when it was in building, was built of stone made ready before it was brought thither: so that there was neither hammer nor axe nor any tool of iron heard in the house, while it was in building.
8 A entrada do andar inferior encontrava-se do lado direito do edifício. Subia-se por uma escada em espiral ao andar do meio, e deste ao terceiro.8 The door for the middle chamber was in the right side of the house: and they went up with winding stairs into the middle chamber, and out of the middle into the third.
9 Terminado o edifício, Salomão recobriu-o de tábuas e de forros de cedro.9 So he built the house, and finished it; and covered the house with beams and boards of cedar.
10 Os andares que construiu encostados em todo o edifício eram de cinco côvados de altura cada um e foram ligados ao templo por traves de cedro.10 And then he built chambers against all the house, five cubits high: and they rested on the house with timber of cedar.
11 A palavra do Senhor foi então dirigida a Salomão nestes termos:11 And the word of the LORD came to Solomon, saying,
12 Esta casa que tu edificas... se obedeceres às minhas leis, praticares os meus mandamentos e observares todos os meus preceitos, seguindo-os cuidadosamente, eu cumprirei em ti as promessas que fiz ao teu pai Davi:12 Concerning this house which thou art in building, if thou wilt walk in my statutes, and execute my judgments, and keep all my commandments to walk in them; then will I perform my word with thee, which I spake unto David thy father:
13 permanecerei no meio dos israelitas e não abandonarei Israel, meu povo.13 And I will dwell among the children of Israel, and will not forsake my people Israel.
14 Salomão terminou a construção do templo.14 So Solomon built the house, and finished it.
15 Forrou o interior das paredes do edifício com placas de cedro, desde o pavimento até o teto; revestiu assim de madeira todo o interior e cobriu o pavimento com tábuas de cipreste.15 And he built the walls of the house within with boards of cedar, both the floor of the house, and the walls of the cieling: and he covered them on the inside with wood, and covered the floor of the house with planks of fir.
16 Revestiu de tábuas de cedro, a partir do fundo do templo, desde o pavimento até o teto, um espaço de vinte côvados, que destinou ao santuário, ou santo dos santos.16 And he built twenty cubits on the sides of the house, both the floor and the walls with boards of cedar: he even built them for it within, even for the oracle, even for the most holy place.
17 Os quarenta côvados restantes constituíam a parte anterior do templo.17 And the house, that is, the temple before it, was forty cubits long.
18 Dentro do edifício o cedro era esculpido de coloquíntidas e flores abertas; tudo era de cedro; não se via a pedra.18 And the cedar of the house within was carved with knops and open flowers: all was cedar; there was no stone seen.
19 Salomão dispôs o santuário no interior do templo, bem ao fundo, para ali colocar a arca da aliança do Senhor.19 And the oracle he prepared in the house within, to set there the ark of the covenant of the LORD.
20 O santuário tinha por dentro vinte côvados de comprimento, vinte de largura e vinte de altura. Salomão revestiu-o de ouro fino, e cobriu o altar de cedro.20 And the oracle in the forepart was twenty cubits in length, and twenty cubits in breadth, and twenty cubits in the height thereof: and he overlaid it with pure gold; and so covered the altar which was of cedar.
21 Revestiu de ouro fino o interior do edifício e fechou com cadeias de ouro a frente do santuário, que era também revestido de ouro.21 So Solomon overlaid the house within with pure gold: and he made a partition by the chains of gold before the oracle; and he overlaid it with gold.
22 A casa ficou assim inteiramente coberta de ouro, como também toda a superfície do altar que estava diante do santuário.22 And the whole house he overlaid with gold, until he had finished all the house: also the whole altar that was by the oracle he overlaid with gold.
23 Fez no santuário dois querubins de pau de oliveira, que tinham dez côvados de altura.23 And within the oracle he made two cherubims of olive tree, each ten cubits high.
24 Cada uma das asas dos querubins tinha cinco côvados, o que fazia dez côvados da extremidade de uma asa à extremidade da outra.24 And five cubits was the one wing of the cherub, and five cubits the other wing of the cherub: from the uttermost part of the one wing unto the uttermost part of the other were ten cubits.
25 O segundo querubim tinha também dez côvados; os dois tinham a mesma forma e as mesmas dimensões.25 And the other cherub was ten cubits: both the cherubims were of one measure and one size.
26 Um e outro tinham dez côvados de altura.26 The height of the one cherub was ten cubits, and so was it of the other cherub.
27 Salomão pô-los no fundo do templo, no santuário. Tinham as asas estendidas, de sorte que uma asa do primeiro tocava uma das paredes e uma asa do segundo tocava a outra parede, enquanto as outras duas asas se encontravam no meio do santuário.27 And he set the cherubims within the inner house: and they stretched forth the wings of the cherubims, so that the wing of the one touched the one wall, and the wing of the other cherub touched the other wall; and their wings touched one another in the midst of the house.
28 Revestiu também de ouro os querubins.28 And he overlaid the cherubims with gold.
29 Mandou esculpir em relevo em todas as paredes da casa, ao redor, no santuário como no templo, querubins, palmas e flores abertas.29 And he carved all the walls of the house round about with carved figures of cherubims and palm trees and open flowers, within and without.
30 Cobriu de ouro o pavimento do edifício, tanto o do santuário como o do templo.30 And the floor of the house he overlaid with gold, within and without.
31 Pôs à porta do santuário vigas de pau de oliveira; o seu enquadramento com as ombreiras ocupava a quinta parte da parede.31 And for the entering of the oracle he made doors of olive tree: the lintel and side posts were a fifth part of the wall.
32 Nos dois batentes de pau de oliveira mandou esculpir querubins, palmas e flores desabrochadas, e cobriu-as de ouro; cobriu de ouro tanto os querubins como as palmas.32 The two doors also were of olive tree; and he carved upon them carvings of cherubims and palm trees and open flowers, and overlaid them with gold, and spread gold upon the cherubims, and upon the palm trees.
33 Para a porta do templo fez vigas de pau de oliveira que ocupavam a quarta parte da parede,33 So also made he for the door of the temple posts of olive tree, a fourth part of the wall.
34 bem como dois batentes de madeira de cipreste, sendo cada batente formado de duas folhas móveis.34 And the two doors were of fir tree: the two leaves of the one door were folding, and the two leaves of the other door were folding.
35 Mandou esculpir nelas querubins, palmas e flores desabrochadas, e cobriu tudo de ouro, ajustado às esculturas.35 And he carved thereon cherubims and palm trees and open flowers: and covered them with gold fitted upon the carved work.
36 Construiu, ao redor do átrio interior, um muro de três ordens de pedras talhadas e uma fileira de traves de cedro.36 And he built the inner court with three rows of hewed stone, and a row of cedar beams.
37 No mês de Ziv do quarto ano de reinado, foram lançados os fundamentos do templo do Senhor,37 In the fourth year was the foundation of the house of the LORD laid, in the month Zif:
38 e no ano undécimo, no mês de Bul, que é o oitavo mês, foi o templo acabado em todas as suas partes e em todos os seus pormenores. O templo foi construído em sete anos.38 And in the eleventh year, in the month Bul, which is the eighth month, was the house finished throughout all the parts thereof, and according to all the fashion of it. So was he seven years in building it.
