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.

¹Then Solomon began to build the house of Yahweh at Jerusalem on Mount Moriah, where Yahweh appeared to David his father, which he prepared in the place that David had appointed, in the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite.

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

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

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.

³Now these are the foundations which Solomon laid for the building of God’s house. The length by cubits after the first measure was sixty cubits, and the breadth twenty cubits.

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.

⁴The porch that was in front, its length, according to the breadth of the house, was twenty cubits, and the height one hundred twenty; and he overlaid it within with pure gold.

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

⁵The greater house he made a ceiling with fir wood, which he overlaid with fine gold, and ornamented it with palm trees and chains.

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

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

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.

⁷He overlaid also the house, the beams, the thresholds, and its walls, and its doors, with gold; and engraved cherubim on the walls.

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

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

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

⁹The weight of the nails was fifty shekels of gold. He overlaid the upper rooms 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.

¹⁰In the most holy house he made two cherubim of image work; and they overlaid them with gold.

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;

¹¹The wings of the cherubim were twenty cubits long: the wing of the one was five cubits, reaching to the wall of the house; and the other wing was five cubits, reaching to 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.

¹²The wing of the other cherub was five cubits, reaching to the wall of the house; and the other wing was five cubits, joining to the wing of the other cherub.

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

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

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

¹⁴He made the veil of blue, and purple, and crimson, and fine linen, and ornamented it with cherubim.

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.

¹⁵Also he made before the house two pillars of thirty-five cubits high, and the capital that was on the top of each of them was five cubits.

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 (?)]

¹⁶He made chains in the oracle, and put them on the tops of the pillars; and he made one hundred pomegranates, and put them on the chains.

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 (?)]

¹⁷He set 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.
