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.

¹[Ny nanaovana ny tempoly sy ny fanaka momba azy] Ary Solomona nanomboka nanao ny tranon'i Jehovah tany Jerosalema, tao an-tendrombohitra Moria, ilay nisehoan'i Jehovah tamin'i Davida rainy, dia ilay namboarina teo amin'ny fitoerana nofidin'i Davida teo amin'ny famoloan'i Araona Jebosita.

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

²Ary nanomboka nanao ny trano izy tamin'ny andro faharoa tamin'ny volana faharoa tamin'ny taona fahefatra nanjakany.

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.

³Ary toy izao no nanorenan'i Solomona ny tranon'Andriamanitra: Ny lavany, raha araka ny hakiho taloha, dia enim-polo hakiho, ary ny sakany roa-polo hakiho.

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.

⁴Ary ny amin'ny lavarangana fidirana izay teo anoloany, ny lavany dia roa-polo hakiho, dia araka ny sakan'ny trano ihany, ary ny hahavony dia roa-polo amby zato hakiho; ary nopetahany takela-bolamena tsara ny ao anatiny.

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

⁵Ary ny ati-trano lehibe nopetahany hazo kypreso, dia vao nopetahany takela-bolamena tsara ireo ary noravahany hazo rofia sy tongalika. [palma]

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

⁶Ary noravahany vato soa koa ny trano; ary ny volamena dia volamena avy any Parvaima.

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

⁷Ary nopetahany takela-bolamena ny trano, dia ny rairainy sy ny tokonany sy ny rindriny ary ny lela-varavarany; ary nosoratany nasiany sarin'ny kerobima ny rindrina.

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.

⁸Ary nanao ny efi-trano masina indrindra izy: ny lavany dia roa-polo hakiho mifanerana amin'ny sakan'ny trano, ary roa-polo hakiho koa ny sakany; ary nopetahany takela-bolamena tsara talenta enin-jato izy

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

⁹Ary ny lanjan'ny hombo volamena dia sekely dimam-polo. Ary ny efi-trano ambony nopetahany volamena koa.

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

¹⁰Ary tao amin'ny efi-trano masina indrindra dia nasiany sarin'ny kerobima roa, ary nosokiriny no nanaovany azy, dia nopetahany takela-bolamena.

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.

¹¹Ny halavan'ny elatry ny kerobima dia roa-polo hakiho: ny elatry ny anankiray dia dimy hakiho, mipaka amin'ny rindrina; ary ny elany iray koa dimy hakiho sady mifanendry amin'ny elatry ny kerobima anankiray;

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.

¹²ary ny elatry ny kerobima anankiray koa dia dimy hakiho, mipaka amin'ny rindrina; ary ny elany iray koa dimy hakiho sady mifanendry amin'ny elatry ny kerobima anankiray.

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

¹³Nivelatra ny elatr'ireo kerobima Ireo. ka roa-polo hakiho ny halavany; nijoro tamin'ny tongony, tarehiny nanatrika ny trano.

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

¹⁴Ary izy nanao ny efitra lamba tamin'ny manga sy volomparasy sy jaky sy rongony fotsy madinika; ary nataony sarin'ny kerobima ny sorany.

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.

¹⁵Ary nanao andry roa teo anoloan'ny trano izy; dimy amby telo-polo hakiho ny hahavony, ary ny kapitaly teo an-tampony dia dimy hakiho ary.

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.

¹⁶Ary nanao tongalika tao amin'ny efitra anatiny izy, ka nataony teo an-tampon'ny andry ireo; ary nanao sarin'apongaben-danitra zato izy, ka nataony teo amin'ny tongalika ireo.Ary ny andry natsangany teo anoloan'ny tempoly, ny iray tamin'ny ankavanana, ary ny iray tamin'ny ankavia; ary ny anaran'ny teo amin'ny ankavanana nanao ny hoe Jakina, ary ny anaran'ny teo amin'ny ankavia kosa natao hoe Boaza.[Jakina = Hampiorina izy][Boaza = Ao aminy no misy hery (?)]

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.

¹⁷Ary ny andry natsangany teo anoloan'ny tempoly, ny iray tamin'ny ankavanana, ary ny iray tamin'ny ankavia; ary ny anaran'ny teo amin'ny ankavanana nanao ny hoe Jakina, ary ny anaran'ny teo amin'ny ankavia kosa natao hoe Boaza.[Jakina = Hampiorina izy][Boaza = Ao aminy no misy hery (?)]
