Markaasaa Sulaymaan bilaabay inuu gurigii Rabbiga Yeruusaalem ka dhiso oo ka dul dhiso Buur Moriyaah oo ahayd meeshii Rabbigu ugu muuqday aabbihiis Daa'uud, oo wuxuu wax ku diyaarshay meeshii Daa'uud doortay oo ahayd meeshii wax lagu tumi jiray oo uu Aarnaankii reer Yebuus lahaa. Oo wuxuu dhismihii bilaabay sannaddii afraad oo boqortooyadiisa, bisheedii labaad, maalinteedii labaad. Haddaba kanu waa aasaaskii Sulaymaan u dhigay dhismihii guriga Ilaah. Oo dhererku markii cabbirkii hore lagu xisaabo wuxuu ahaa lixdan dhudhun, oo ballaadhkiisuna wuxuu ahaa labaatan dhudhun. Oo balbaladii guriga ka horraysayna dhererkeedu wuxuu le'ekaa guriga ballaadhkiisu oo labaatan dhudhun ahaa, oo sarajooggeeduna wuxuu ahaa boqol iyo labaatan dhudhun, oo wuxuu gudaha hoose kaga dahaadhay dahab saafiya. Oo gurigii weynaa wuxuu saqaf hoose uga dhigay qoryo beroosh ah oo uu dahab wanaagsan ku dahaadhay, oo wuxuuna ku xardhay geedo timireed iyo silsilado. Oo gurigiina wuxuu ku qurxiyey dhagaxyo qaali ah, dahabkuna wuxuu ahaa dahabkii Farwaayim. Oo gurigiina iyo alwaaxdii saqafka haysay, iyo fayaaradihiisii, iyo derbiyadiisii, iyo albaabbadiisiiba wuxuu ku dahaadhay dahab, oo derbiyadana Keruubiim buu ku xardhay. Oo wuxuu sameeyey gurigii ugu wada quduusnaa, dhererkiisuna wuxuu le'ekaa guriga ballaadhkiisa oo labaatan dhudhun ahaa, oo ballaadhkiisuna wuxuu ahaa labaatan dhudhun, oo isagana wuxuu ku dahaadhay dahab wanaagsan oo gaadhaya lix boqol oo talanti. Oo musmaarrada miisaankooduna wuxuu ahaa konton sheqel oo dahab ah, oo qolalkii sarena wuxuu ku dahaadhay dahab. 10 Oo guriga ugu wada quduusan gudihiisana wuxuu ku sameeyey laba keruub oo wax xardhan ah, oo iyagana dahab baa lagu dahaadhay. 11 Keruubiimta baalashooda dhererkooduna wuxuu ahaa labaatan dhudhun; mid baalkiisu wuxuu ahaa shan dhudhun oo wuxuu gaadhi karay guriga derbigiisa, oo kan kalena wuxuu ahaa shan dhudhun sidaasoo kale oo wuxuu gaadhi karay baalka keruubka kale. 12 Oo keruubka kale baalkiisuna wuxuu ahaa shan dhudhun, oo wuxuu gaadhi karay guriga derbigiisa kale; oo baalka kalena sidaasoo kale wuxuu ahaa shan dhudhun oo wuxuu gaadhi karay baalka keruubka kale. 13 Oo keruubiimtaas baalashoodu way kala baxsanaayeen intii labaatan dhudhun ah; oo cagahooday ku taagnaayeen, wejiyadooduna waxay u jeedeen guriga gudihiisa. 14 Oo haddana wuxuu ilxidhka ka dhigay buluug, iyo guduud, iyo casaan, oo maro wanaagsan laga sameeyey, oo keruubiim lagu daabacay. 15 Oo weliba guriga hortiisana wuxuu ku sameeyey laba tiir oo mid kasta dhererkiisu yahay shan iyo soddon dhudhun, oo mid kastana taajkii saarnaa wuxuu ahaa shan dhudhun. 16 Oo wuxuu kaloo sameeyey silsilado u eg kuwii guriga quduuska ah markaasuu saaray tiirarka dushoodii; oo wuxuu kaloo sameeyey boqol rummaan oo silsiladihii buu ku dhejiyey. 17 Markaasuu tiirarkii qotomiyey macbudka hortiisa, mid dhanka midigta, kii kalena dhanka bidixda, oo kii dhanka midigta ahaa magiciisii wuxuu u bixiyey Yaakiin, kii dhanka bidixda ahaana wuxuu u bixiyey Bocas.

Solomon Builds the Temple(A)

Then Solomon began to build(B) the temple of the Lord(C) in Jerusalem on Mount Moriah, where the Lord had appeared to his father David. It was on the threshing floor of Araunah[a](D) the Jebusite, the place provided by David. He began building on the second day of the second month in the fourth year of his reign.(E)

The foundation Solomon laid for building the temple of God was sixty cubits long and twenty cubits wide[b](F) (using the cubit of the old standard). The portico at the front of the temple was twenty cubits[c] long across the width of the building and twenty[d] cubits high.

He overlaid the inside with pure gold. He paneled the main hall with juniper and covered it with fine gold and decorated it with palm tree(G) and chain designs. He adorned the temple with precious stones. And the gold he used was gold of Parvaim. He overlaid the ceiling beams, doorframes, walls and doors of the temple with gold, and he carved cherubim(H) on the walls.

He built the Most Holy Place,(I) its length corresponding to the width of the temple—twenty cubits long and twenty cubits wide. He overlaid the inside with six hundred talents[e] of fine gold. The gold nails(J) weighed fifty shekels.[f] He also overlaid the upper parts with gold.

10 For the Most Holy Place he made a pair(K) of sculptured cherubim and overlaid them with gold. 11 The total wingspan of the cherubim was twenty cubits. One wing of the first cherub was five cubits[g] long and touched the temple wall, while its other wing, also five cubits long, touched the wing of the other cherub. 12 Similarly one wing of the second cherub was five cubits long and touched the other temple wall, and its other wing, also five cubits long, touched the wing of the first cherub. 13 The wings of these cherubim(L) extended twenty cubits. They stood on their feet, facing the main hall.[h]

14 He made the curtain(M) of blue, purple and crimson yarn and fine linen, with cherubim(N) worked into it.

15 For the front of the temple he made two pillars,(O) which together were thirty-five cubits[i] long, each with a capital(P) five cubits high. 16 He made interwoven chains[j](Q) and put them on top of the pillars. He also made a hundred pomegranates(R) and attached them to the chains. 17 He erected the pillars in the front of the temple, one to the south and one to the north. The one to the south he named Jakin[k] and the one to the north Boaz.[l]
