¹Then 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.

¹Huchiin, Solomon in Jerusalemah, Moriah tang, apa David kiang a TOUPA kilakna, Jebus mi Ornan phualjang, David naseh saah TOUPA in alam panta hi,

²And he began to build in the second day of the second month, in the fourth year of his reign.

²Alal kumli kum, khanihna ni nihni in alam panta hi.

³Now 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.

³Pathian in lamdan ding Solomon in a ngaihtuah dan hichi bang ahi. Adung lambel tong tehdan ngeina in tong sawmguk ahi a, a vai lam bel tong sawmnih ahi.

⁴And 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.

⁴Amalam ah inlim dunglam pen in vailam tan mah tong sawmnih ahi a, asan lam bel ja leh sawmnih ahi a, a sung bel dangka eng chi keleu ngen in a luan hi,

⁵And the greater house he cieled with fir tree, which he overlaid with fine gold, and set thereon palm trees and chains.

⁵Huan dantan lianjaw pen bangah meilah sing a thuap a, huai tuh dangkaeng chikeleu ngen in a luan a, huaiah tumsing leh khainiang lim a tuang sak hi.

⁶And he garnished the house with precious stones for beauty: and the gold was gold of Parvaim.

⁶Huan, a kilawmsak dingin in bel suangmantam in a jem a, dangkaeng bel Paravaim dangkaeng ahi.

⁷He overlaid also the house, the beams, the posts, and the walls thereof, and the doors thereof, with gold; and graved cherubim on the walls.

⁷In bel, kalkhang te, bangte, apialkhang te, kongkhakte dangkaeng in a luana; bangte ah cherub lim te a tuang sak ahi.

⁸And 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.

⁸Huan, munsiangthoupen a bawla adunglam in vailam tanmah, tongsawmnih ahi a, a vailam bel tongsawmnih ahi a, dangkaeng chikeleu ngen in a luan a, talent zaguk a pha hi.

⁹And the weight of the nails was fifty shekels of gold. And he overlaid the upper chambers with gold.

⁹Huan, a kilhna gikdan dangkaeng sekel sawmnga ahi. Huan, dantan tungnung te dangkaeng in a luan a.

¹⁰And in the most holy house he made two cherubim of image work, and overlaid them with gold.

¹⁰Huan, insiangthou pen ah cherub lim nih a bawla, huaite dangkaeng in a luan hi.

¹¹And the wings of the cherubim 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.

¹¹Huan cherub kha ten tong sawmnih a; khak a cherub khat kha tongnga ahi a, bang ava pha a, huan, a kha langkhat leng tong nga mah ahi a, cherub khat kha ava pha hi.

¹²And 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.

¹²Huan, cherub khat kha leng tong nga ahi a, bang ava pha a; huan, akha lang khat tong nga mah ahi a, cherub khat kha ava pha hi.

¹³The wings of these cherubim spread themselves forth twenty cubits: and they stood on their feet, and their faces were inward.

¹³Huan cherub ten tong sawmnih khak in akha uh a jak ua, a ding ua, innsung lam nga in a ding uh.

¹⁴And he made the vail of blue, and purple, and crimson, and fine linen, and wrought cherubim thereon.

¹⁴Huan puanjak ding a dumbuangte, asan dupte, a sanaute, khauzang ngat mahmahte in a bawl a, huai ah cherub limte a tuang sak hi.

¹⁵Also 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.

¹⁵Huan, amailam ah tong sawmthum leh tong ngaa sang khuam nih a phuta, huaite dawn tong nga tuaktuak ahi.

¹⁶And 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.

¹⁶Huailaiah khainiang a bawla, khuamdawnte ah a viala; huan, pomegranet ja a bawla, khainiang ah a khai hi,Huan, biakin mailam ah khuamte a phuta, khat taklam ah, khat veilam ah, huan, taklam a pen Jakin a chi a, veilam a pen boaz achi hi.

¹⁷And 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.

¹⁷Huan, biakin mailam ah khuamte a phuta, khat taklam ah, khat veilam ah, huan, taklam a pen Jakin a chi a, veilam a pen boaz achi hi.
