¹Salomon tada poče graditi Dom Jahvi u Jeruzalemu, na Morijskoj gori, ondje gdje je njegov otac David imao viđenje. To je mjesto koje je pripravio David, gumno Jebusejca Ornana.

¹And Solomon began to build the house of Jehovah at Jerusalem on mount Moriah, where he appeared to David his father, in the place that David had prepared in the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite.

²Salomon otpoče gradnju drugoga mjeseca četvrte godine svojega vladanja.

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

³Ovo su temelji koje je Salomon postavio za gradnju Doma Božjega: šezdeset lakata u duljinu - po staroj mjeri lakta - a u širinu dvadeset lakata.

³And this was Solomon's foundation for the construction of the house of God. The length by cubits after the first measure was sixty cubits, and the breadth twenty cubits.

⁴Trijem, koji je bio pred Domom, imao je, po širini ovoga potonjega, u dužinu dvadeset lakata, a visok je bio sto i dvadeset lakata. Obložio ga je iznutra čistim zlatom.

⁴And the porch which was in front was twenty cubits in length, in front of the house broadways, and the height was a hundred and twenty; and he overlaid it within with pure gold.

⁵Veliku je dvoranu obložio čempresovinom, koju je prekrio čistim zlatom i postavio palme i cvjetne vijence.

⁵And the greater house he boarded with cypress-wood, which he overlaid with fine gold, and set on it palm-trees and chains.

⁶Optočio je potom Dvoranu blistavim draguljima; zlato je bilo zlato parvajimsko.

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

⁷Prekrio je njime Dvoranu: grede, pragove, zidove i vratna krila te izrezao kerubine po zidovima.

⁷And he covered the house, the beams, the threshold, and its walls, and its doors with gold, and engraved cherubim on the walls.

⁸Potom sazda dvoranu Svetinje nad svetinjama. Bila je, prema hramskoj širini, dvadeset lakata duga i dvadeset lakata široka i obloži je sa šest stotina talenata suhog zlata.

⁸And he made the house of the most holy place, the length of which was according to the breadth of the house, twenty cubits, and its breadth twenty cubits; and he covered it with fine gold, amounting to six hundred talents.

⁹Za čavle je dao na mjeru pedeset zlatnih šekela. I gornje je odaje obložio zlatom.

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

¹⁰U dvorani Svetinje nad svetinjama napravi dva kerubina, liveno djelo. I njih obloži zlatom.

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

¹¹Krila kerubina bila su dvadeset lakata duga: jedno krilo od pet lakata dodirivaše hramski zid, a drugo od pet lakata doticaše krilo drugoga kerubina.

¹¹And the wings of the cherubim were twenty cubits long: one wing of five cubits touched the wall of the house; and the other wing of five cubits touched the wing of the other cherub.

¹²Tako je i krilo drugoga kerubina, od pet lakata, dodirivalo hramski zid, a drugo mu se krilo, od pet lakata, spajalo s krilom drugoga kerubina.

¹²And the wing of the other cherub of five cubits touched the wall of the house; and the other wing was five cubits joining the wing of the other cherub.

¹³Raširena, krila kerubina imala su dvadeset lakata. Stajali su kerubini uspravno, lic-a okrenutih Dvorani.

¹³The wings of these cherubim spread forth were twenty cubits; and they stood on their feet, and their faces were toward the house.

¹⁴Napravi zastor od ljubičastog baršuna, od grimiza, karmezina i bÓeza te na njemu izveze kerubine.

¹⁴And he made the veil of blue, and purple, and crimson, and byssus, and made cherubim upon it.

¹⁵Pred Dvoranom napravi dva stupa dugačka trideset i pet lakata, a glavice im na vrhu pet lakata.

¹⁵And before the house he made two pillars thirty-five cubits long; and the capital that was on the top of each of them was five cubits.

¹⁶U Debiru on splete vijence te ih postavi navrh stupova i napravi sto mogranja koje postavi među vijence.

¹⁶And he made chains [as] in the oracle, and he put them on the top of the pillars; and he made a hundred pomegranates, and put them on the chains.

¹⁷Postavi stupove pred Hekal, jedan zdesna, drugi slijeva, te nazva Jakin onaj zdesna, a Boaz onaj slijeva.

¹⁷And he set up the pillars in front of the temple, one on the right hand and the other on the left; and he called the name of that on the right Jachin, and the name of that on the left Boaz.
