Septuagint (Greek Old Testament), second edition
1Then Solomon began to build the LORD’s house at Jerusalem on Mount Moriah, where the LORD appeared to David his father, which he prepared in the place that David had appointed, on the threshing floor 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.
2He began to build in the second day of 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 for the building of God’s house: the length by cubits after the first measure was sixty cubits, and the width twenty cubits.
3καὶ ταῦτα ἤρξατο Σαλωμὼν τοῦ οἰκοδομῆσαι τὸν οἶκον τοῦ Θεοῦ· μῆκος πήχεων ἡ διαμέτρησις ἡ πρώτη πήχεων ἑξήκοντα καὶ εὗρος πήχεων εἴκοσι.
4The porch that was in front, its length, across the width of the house, was twenty cubits, and the height one hundred twenty; 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.
5He made the larger room with a ceiling of cypress wood, which he overlaid with fine gold, and ornamented it with palm trees and chains.
5καὶ τὸν οἶκον τὸν μέγαν ἐξύλωσε ξύλοις κεδρίνοις καὶ κατεχρύσωσε χρυσίῳ καθαρῷ καὶ ἔγλυψεν ἐπ' αὐτοῦ φοίνικας καὶ χαλαστά.
6He decorated the house with precious stones for beauty. The gold was gold from Parvaim.
6καὶ ἐκόσμησε τὸν οἶκον λίθοις τιμίοις εἰς δόξαν καὶ ἐχρύσωσε χρυσίῳ χρυσίου τοῦ ἐκ Φαρουΐμ
7He also overlaid the house, the beams, the thresholds, its walls, and its doors with gold, and engraved cherubim 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 the most holy place. Its length, according to the width of the house, was twenty cubits, and its width twenty cubits; and he overlaid it with fine gold, amounting to 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.
9The weight of the nails was fifty shekels of gold. He overlaid the upper rooms with gold.
9καὶ ὁλκὴ τῶν ἥλων, ὁλκὴ τοῦ ἑνὸς πεντήκοντα σίκλοι χρυσίου. καὶ τὸ ὑπερῷον ἐχρύσωσε χρυσίῳ.
10In the most holy place he made two cherubim by carving, and they 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 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.
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·
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.
no verse 12 in this text
13The wings of these cherubim spread themselves out twenty cubits. They stood on their feet, and their faces were toward the house.
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 the veil of blue, purple, crimson, and fine linen, and ornamented it with cherubim.
14καὶ ἐποίησε τὸ καταπέτασμα ὑακίνθου καὶ πορφύρας καὶ κοκκίνου καὶ βύσσου καὶ ὕφανεν ἐν αὐτῷ Χερουβίμ.
15Also he made before the house two pillars thirty-five cubits high, and the capital that was on the top of each of them was five cubits.
15καὶ ἐποίησεν ἔμπροσθεν τοῦ οἴκου στύλους δύο, πήχεων τριακονταπέντε τὸ ὕψος καὶ τὰς κεφαλὰς αὐτῶν πήχεων πέντε.
16He made chains in the inner sanctuary, and put them on the tops of the pillars; and he made one hundred pomegranates, and put them on the chains.
16καὶ ἐποίησε σερσερὼθ ἐν τῷ δαβὶρ καὶ ἔδωκεν ἐπὶ τῶν κεφαλῶν τῶν στύλων. καὶ ἐποίησε ροΐσκους ἑκατὸν καὶ ἐποίησε ροΐσκους ἐπὶ τῶν χαλαστῶν.
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.
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.
