Septuagint (Greek Old Testament), second edition
1And Solomon began to build the house of the Lord in Jerusalem, in mount Moria, which had been shewn to David his father, in the place which David had prepared in the thrashingfloor of Ornan the Jebusite.
1ΚΑΙ ἤρξατο Σαλωμὼν τοῦ οἰκοδομεῖν τὸν οἶκον Κυρίου ἐν Ἱερουσαλὴμ ἐν ὄρει τοῦ Ἀμωρία, οὗ ὤφθη Κύριος τῷ Δαυὶδ πατρὶ αὐτοῦ, ἐν τῷ τόπῳ, ᾧ ἡτοίμασε Δαυὶδ ἐν ἅλῳ Ὀρνὰ τοῦ Ἰεβουσαίου.
2And he began to build in the second month, in the fourth year of his reign.
2καὶ ἤρξατο οἰκοδομῆσαι ἐν τῷ μηνὶ τῷ δευτέρῳ ἐν τῷ ἔτει τῷ τετάρτῳ τῆς βασιλείας αὐτοῦ.
3Now these are the foundations, which Solomon laid, to build the house of God, the length by the first measure sixty cubits, the breadth twenty cubits.
3καὶ ταῦτα ἤρξατο Σαλωμὼν τοῦ οἰκοδομῆσαι τὸν οἶκον τοῦ Θεοῦ· μῆκος πήχεων ἡ διαμέτρησις ἡ πρώτη πήχεων ἑξήκοντα καὶ εὗρος πήχεων εἴκοσι.
4And the porch in the front, which was extended in length according to the measure of the breadth of the house, twenty cubits: and the height was a hundred and twenty cubits: and he overlaid it within with pure gold.
4καὶ αἰλὰμ κατὰ πρόσωπον τοῦ οἴκου, μῆκος ἐπὶ πρόσωπον πλάτους τοῦ οἴκου πήχεων εἴκοσι καὶ ὕψος πήχεων ἑκατὸν εἴκοσι· καὶ κατεχρύσωσεν αὐτὸν ἔσωθεν χρυσίῳ καθαρῷ.
5And the greater house he ceiled with deal boards, and overlaid them with plates of fine gold throughout: and he graved in them palm trees, and like little chains interlaced with one another.
5καὶ τὸν οἶκον τὸν μέγαν ἐξύλωσε ξύλοις κεδρίνοις καὶ κατεχρύσωσε χρυσίῳ καθαρῷ καὶ ἔγλυψεν ἐπ' αὐτοῦ φοίνικας καὶ χαλαστά.
6He paved also the floor of the temple with most precious marble, of great beauty.
6καὶ ἐκόσμησε τὸν οἶκον λίθοις τιμίοις εἰς δόξαν καὶ ἐχρύσωσε χρυσίῳ χρυσίου τοῦ ἐκ Φαρουΐμ
7And the gold of the plates with which he overlaid the house, and the beams thereof, and the posts, and the walls, and the doors was of the finest: and he graved cherubims on the walls.
7καὶ ἐχρύσωσε τὸν οἶκον καὶ τοὺς τοίχους αὐτοῦ καὶ τοὺς πυλῶνας καὶ τὰ ὀροφώματα καὶ τὰ θυρώματα χρυσίῳ καὶ ἔγλυψε Χερουβὶμ ἐπὶ τῶν τοίχων.
8He made also the house of the holy of holies: the length of it according to the breadth of the temple, twenty cubits, and the breadth of it in like manner twenty cubits: and he overlaid it with plates of gold, amounting to about six hundred talents.
8καὶ ἐποίησε τὸν οἶκον τοῦ ἁγίου τῶν ἁγίων, μῆκος αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ πρόσωπον πλάτους τοῦ οἴκου πήχεων εἴκοσι καὶ τὸ εὗρος πήχεων εἴκοσι, καὶ ἐχρύσωσεν αὐτὸν χρυσίῳ καθαρῷ εἰς Χερουβὶμ εἰς τάλαντα ἑξακόσια.
9He made also nails of gold, and the weight of every nail was fifty sicles: the upper chambers also he overlaid with gold.
9καὶ ὁλκὴ τῶν ἥλων, ὁλκὴ τοῦ ἑνὸς πεντήκοντα σίκλοι χρυσίου. καὶ τὸ ὑπερῷον ἐχρύσωσε χρυσίῳ.
10He made also in the house of the holy of holies two cherubims of image work: and he overlaid them with gold.
10καὶ ἐποίησεν ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ τῷ ἁγίῳ τῶν ἁγίων Χερουβὶμ δύο, ἔργον ἐκ ξύλων καὶ ἐχρύσωσεν αὐτὰ χρυσίῳ.
11The wings of the cherubims were extended twenty cubits, so that one wing was five cubits long, and reached to the wall of the house: and the other was also five cubits long, and reached to the wing of the other cherub.
11καὶ αἱ πτέρυγες τῶν Χερουβὶμ τὸ μῆκος πήχεων εἴκοσι, καὶ ἡ πτέρυξ ἡ μία πήχεων πέντε ἁπτομένη τοῦ τοίχου τοῦ οἴκου, καὶ ἡ πτέρυξ ἡ ἑτέρα πήχεων πέντε ἁπτομένη τῆς πτέρυγος τοῦ Χεροὺβ τοῦ ἑτέρου·
12In like manner the wing of the other cherub, was five cubits long, and reached to the wall: and his other wing was five cubits long, and touched the wing of the other cherub.
no verse 12 in this text
13So the wings of the two cherubims were spread forth, and were extended twenty cubits: and they stood upright on their feet, and their faces were turned toward the house without.
13καὶ αἱ πτέρυγες τῶν Χερουβὶμ τούτων διαπεπετασμέναι πήχεων εἴκοσι· καὶ αὐτὰ ἑστηκόκα ἐπὶ τοὺς πόδας αὐτῶν, καὶ τὰ πρόσωπα αὐτῶν εἰς τὸν οἶκον.
14He made also a veil of violet, purple, scarlet, and silk: and wrought in it cherubims.
14καὶ ἐποίησε τὸ καταπέτασμα ὑακίνθου καὶ πορφύρας καὶ κοκκίνου καὶ βύσσου καὶ ὕφανεν ἐν αὐτῷ Χερουβίμ.
15He made also before the doors of the temple two pillars, which were five and thirty cubits high: and their chapiters were five cubits.
15καὶ ἐποίησεν ἔμπροσθεν τοῦ οἴκου στύλους δύο, πήχεων τριακονταπέντε τὸ ὕψος καὶ τὰς κεφαλὰς αὐτῶν πήχεων πέντε.
16He made also as it were little chains in the oracle, and he put them on the heads of the pillars: and a hundred pomegranates, which he put between the little chains.
16καὶ ἐποίησε σερσερὼθ ἐν τῷ δαβὶρ καὶ ἔδωκεν ἐπὶ τῶν κεφαλῶν τῶν στύλων. καὶ ἐποίησε ροΐσκους ἑκατὸν καὶ ἐποίησε ροΐσκους ἐπὶ τῶν χαλαστῶν.
17These pillars he put at the entrance of the temple, one on the right hand, and the other on the left: that which was on the right hand, he called Jachin: and that on the left hand, Boot.
17καὶ ἔστησε τοὺς στύλους κατὰ πρόσωπον τοῦ ναοῦ, ἕνα ἐκ δεξιῶν καὶ τὸν ἕνα ἐξ εὐωνύμων, καὶ ἐκάλεσε τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ ἐκ δεξιῶν Κατόρθωσις καὶ τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ ἐξ ἀριστερῶν Ἰσχύς.
