2 Chronicles 4

1 Καὶ ἐποίησε θυσιαστήριον χαλκοῦν, εἴκοσι πήχεων τὸ μῆκος, καὶ εἴκοσι πήχεων τὸ εὖρος, καὶ δέκα πήχεων τὸ ὕψος.

2 Καὶ ἐποίησε τὴν θάλασσαν χυτὴν, δέκα πήχεων τὴν διαμέτρησιν, στρογγύλην κυκλόθεν, καὶ πέντε πήχεων τὸ ὕψος, καὶ τὸ κύκλωμα τριάκοντα πήχεων.

3 Καὶ ὁμοίωμα μόσχων ὑποκάτω αὐτῆς, κύκλῳ κυκλοῦσιν αὐτήν· δέκα πήχεις περιέχουσι τὸν λουτῆρα κυκλόθεν· δύο γένη ἐχώνευσαν τοὺς μόσχους ἐν τῇ χωνεύσει αὐτῶν

4 ᾗ ἐποίησαν αὐτοὺς δώδεκα μόσχους, οἱ τρεῖς βλέποντες Βοῤῥᾶν, καὶ οἱ τρεῖς δυσμὰς, καὶ οἱ τρεῖς Νότον, καὶ οἱ τρεῖς κατʼ ἀνατολὰς, καὶ ἡ θάλασσα ἐπʼ αὐτῶν ἄνω, ἦσαν τὰ ὀπίσθια αὐτῶν ἔσω.

5 Καὶ τὸ πάχος αὐτῆς παλαιστὴς, καὶ τὸ χεῖλος αὐτῆς ὡς χεῖλος ποτηρίου, διαγεγλυμμένα βλαστοὺς κρίνου, χωροῦσαν μετρητὰς τρισχιλίους· καὶ ἐξετέλεσε.

6 Καὶ ἐποίησε λουτῆρας δέκα, καὶ ἔθηκε τοὺς πέντε ἐκ δεξιῶν καὶ τοὺς πέντε ἐξ ἀριστερῶν, τοῦ πλύνειν ἐν αὐτοῖς τὰ ἔργα τῶν ὁλοκαυτωμάτων, καὶ ἀποκλύζειν ἐν αὐτοῖς, καὶ ἡ θάλασσα εἰς τὸ νίπτεσθαι τοὺς ἱερεῖς ἐν αὐτῇ.

7 Καὶ ἐποίησε τὰς λυχνίας τὰς χρυσᾶς δέκα κατὰ τὸ κρίμα αὐτῶν, καὶ ἔθηκεν ἐν τῷ ναῷ, πέντε ἐκ δεξιῶν καὶ πέντε ἐξ ἀριστερῶν.

8 Καὶ ἐποίησε τραπέζας δέκα, καὶ ἔθηκεν ἐν τῷ ναῷ, πέντε ἐκ δεξιῶν καὶ πέντε ἐξ εὐωνύμων, καὶ ἐποίησε φιάλας χρυσᾶς ἑκατὸν,

9 καὶ ἐποίησε τὴν αὐλὴν τῶν ἱερέων, καὶ τὴν αὐλὴν τὴν μεγάλην, καὶ θύρας τῇ αὐλῇ, καὶ θυρώματα αὐτῶν κατακεχαλκωμένα χαλκῷ.

10 Καὶ τὴν θάλασσαν ἔθηκεν ἀπὸ γωνίας τοῦ οἴκου ἐκ δεξιῶν ὡς πρὸς ἀνατολὰς κατέναντι.

11 Καὶ ἐποίησε Χιρὰμ τὰς κρεάγρας, καὶ τὰ πυρεῖα, καὶ τὴν ἐσχάραν τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου, καὶ πάντα τὰ σκεύη αὐτοῦ· καὶ συνετέλεσε Χιρὰμ ποιῆσαι πᾶσαν τὴν ἐργασίαν ἣν ἐποίησε Σαλωμὼν τῷ βασιλεῖ ἐν οἴκῳ τοῦ Θεοῦ,

12 στύλους δύο, καὶ ἐπʼ αὐτῶν γελὰθ τῇ χωθαρὲθ ἐπὶ τῶν κεφαλῶν τῶν στύλων δύο, καὶ δίκτυα δύο συγκαλύψαι τὰς κεφαλὰς τῶν χωθαρὲθ ἅ ἐστιν ἐπὶ τῶν κεφαλῶν τῶν στύλων,

13 καὶ κώδωνας χρυσοῦς τετρακοσίους εἰς τὰ δύο δίκτυα, καὶ δύο γένη ῥοΐσκων ἐν τῷ δικτύῳ τῷ ἑνὶ τοῦ συγκαλύψαι τὰς δύο γωλὰθ τῶν χωθαρὲθ ἅ ἐστιν ἐπάνω τῶν στύλων·

14 Καὶ τοὺς μεχωνὼθ ἐποίησε δέκα, καὶ τοὺς λουτῆρας ἐποίησεν ἐπὶ τοὺς μεχωνὼθ,

15 καὶ τὴν θάλασσαν μίαν, καὶ τοὺς μόσχους τοὺς δώδεκα ὑποκάτω αὐτῆς,

16 καὶ τοὺς ποδιστῆρας, καὶ τοὺς ἀναλημπτῆρας, καὶ τοὺς λέβητας, καὶ τὰς κρεάγρας, καὶ πάντα τὰ σκεύη αὐτῶν ἃ ἐποίησε Χιρὰμ, καὶ ἀνήνεγκε τῷ βασιλεῖ Σαλωμὼν ἐν οἴκῳ Κυρίου, χαλκοῦ καθαροῦ.

17 Ἐν τῷ περιχώρῳ τοῦ Ἰορδάνου ἐχώνευσεν αὐτὰ ὁ βασιλεὺς ἐν τῷ πάχει τῆς γῆς ἐν οἴκῳ Σοκχὼθ καὶ ἀναμέσον Σαρηδαθά.

18 Καὶ ἐποίησε Σαλωμὼν πάντα τὰ σκεύη ταῦτα εἰς πλῆθος σφόδρα, ὅτι οὐκ ἐξέλιπεν ὁλκὴ τοῦ χαλκοῦ.

19 Καὶ ἐποίησε Σαλωμὼν πάντα τὰ σκεύη οἴκου Κυρίου, καὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριον τὸ χρυσοῦν, καὶ τὰς τραπέζας, καὶ ἐπʼ αὐτῶν ἄρτοι προθέσεως,

20 καὶ τὰς λυχνίας, καὶ τοὺς λύχνους τοῦ φωτὸς κατὰ τὸ κρίμα καὶ κατὰ πρόσωπον τοῦ δαβὶρ χρυσίου καθαροῦ,

21 καὶ λαβίδες αὐτῶν, καὶ οἱ λύχνοι αὐτῶν, καὶ τὰς φιάλας, καὶ τὰς θυΐσκας, καὶ τὰ πυρεῖα χρυσίου καθαροῦ,

22 καὶ ἡ θύρα τοῦ οἴκου ἡ ἐσωτέρα εἰς τὰ ἅγια τῶν ἁγίων, καὶ τὰς θύρας τοῦ οἴκου τοῦ ναοῦ χρυσᾶς· καὶ συνετελέσθη πᾶσα ἡ ἐργασία ἣν ἐποίησε Σαλωμὼν ἐν οἴκῳ Κυρίου.

1 And he made a brazen altar, the length of it twenty cubits, and the breadth twenty cubits, and the height ten cubits.

2 And he made the molten sea, in diameter ten cubits, entirely round, and the height of it five cubits, and the circumference thirty cubits.

3 And beneath it the likeness of calves, they compass it round about: ten cubits compass the laver round about, they cast the calves two rows in their casting,

4 wherein they made them twelve calves,—three looking northwards, and three westwards, and three southwards, and three eastwards: and the sea was upon them above, and their hinder parts were inward.

5 And its thickness was a hand-breadth, and its brim as the brim of a cup, graven with flowers of lilies, holding three thousand measures: and he finished it .

6 And he made ten lavers, and set five on the right hand, and five on the left, to wash in them the instruments of the whole-burnt-offerings, and to rinse the vessels in them; and the sea was for the priests to wash in.

7 And he made the ten golden candlesticks according to their pattern, and he put them in the temple, five on the right hand, and five on the left.

8 And he made ten tables, and put them in the temple, five on the right hand, and five on the left: and he made a hundred golden bowls.

9 Also he made the priests' court, and the great court, and doors to the court, and their panels were overlaid with brass.

10 And he set the sea at the corner of the house on the right, as it were fronting the east.

11 And Chiram made the fleshhooks, and the fire-pans, and the grate of the altar, and all its instruments: and Chiram finished doing all the work which he wrought for king Solomon in the house of God:

12 two pillars, and upon them an embossed work for the chapiters on the heads of the two pillars, and two nets to cover the heads of the chapiters which are on the heads of the pillars;

13 and four hundred golden bells for the two nets, and two rows of pomegranates in each net, to cover the two embossed rims of the chapiters which are upon the pillars.

14 And he made the ten bases, and he made the lavers upon the bases;

15 and the one sea, and the twelve calves under it;

16 and the foot-baths, and the buckets, and the caldrons, and the flesh-hooks, and all their furniture (which Chiram made, and brought to king Solomon in the house of the Lord) of pure brass.

17 In the country round about Jordan the king cast them, in the clay ground in the house of Socchoth, and between that and Saredatha.

18 So Solomon made all these vessels in great abundance, for the quantity of brass failed not.

19 And Solomon made all the vessels of the house of the Lord, and the golden altar, and the tables, and upon them were to be the loaves of shewbread;

20 also the candlesticks, and the lamps to give light according to the pattern, and in front of the oracle, of pure gold.

21 And their snuffers, and their lamps were made , and he made the bowls, and the censers, and the fire-pans, of pure gold.

22 And there was the inner door of the house opening into the holy of holies, and he made the inner doors of the temple of gold. So all the work which Solomon wrought for the house of the Lord was finished.
