2 Chronicles 4

1He made the sea of cast bronze, ten cubits in diameter. It was completely round. It was five cubits high and thirty cubits around.

καὶ ἐποίησεν τὸ θυσιαστήριον χαλκοῦν πήχεων εἴκοσι μῆκος καὶ τὸ εὖρος πήχεων εἴκοσι ὕψος πήχεων δέκα

2And he made the sea of cast bronze, ten cubits in diameter. It was completely round. It was five cubits high and thirty cubits around.

καὶ ἐποίησεν τὴν θάλασσαν χυτήν πήχεων δέκα τὴν διαμέτρησιν στρογγύλην κυκλόθεν καὶ πήχεων πέντε τὸ ὕψος καὶ τὸ κύκλωμα πήχεων τριάκοντα

3Under it were the likenesses of oxen encircling it all around, ten to a cubit, all the way around the sea. The oxen were cast in two rows when it was cast.

καὶ ὁμοίωμα μόσχων ὑποκάτωθεν αὐτῆς κύκλῳ κυκλοῦσιν αὐτήν πήχεις δέκα περιέχουσιν τὸν λουτῆρα κυκλόθεν δύο γένη ἐχώνευσαν τοὺς μόσχους ἐν τῇ χωνεύσει αὐτῶν

4It stood on twelve oxen. Three looked toward the north, three looked toward the west, three looked toward the south, and three looked toward the east. The sea was set upon them, and all their back parts pointed inward.

ᾗ ἐποίησαν αὐτούς δώδεκα μόσχους οἱ τρεῖς βλέποντες βορρᾶν καὶ οἱ τρεῖς βλέποντες δυσμὰς καὶ οἱ τρεῖς βλέποντες νότον καὶ οἱ τρεῖς βλέποντες κατ᾿ ἀνατολάς καὶ ἡ θάλασσα ἐπ᾿ αὐτῶν ἄνω ἦσαν τὰ ὀπίσθια αὐτῶν ἔσω

5It was a handbreadth thick and its brim was like the brim of a cup, like a lily blossom. It contained three thousand baths. And he finished it.

καὶ τὸ πάχος αὐτῆς παλαιστής καὶ τὸ χεῖλος αὐτῆς ὡς χεῖλος ποτηρίου διαγεγλυμμένα βλαστοὺς κρίνου χωροῦσαν μετρητὰς τρισχιλίους καὶ ἐξετέλεσεν

6He also made ten basins, and put five on the right side and five on the left, to wash what they offered for the burnt offering. The sea, however, was for the priests to wash in.

καὶ ἐποίησεν λουτῆρας δέκα καὶ ἔθηκεν 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

7He made ten gold lampstands according to their design and set them in the temple, five on the right and five on the left.

καὶ ἐποίησεν τὰς λυχνίας τὰς χρυσᾶς δέκα κατὰ τὸ κρίμα αὐτῶν καὶ ἔθηκεν ἐν τῷ ναῷ πέντε ἐκ δεξιῶν καὶ πέντε ἐξ ἀριστερῶν

8He also made ten tables and placed them in the temple, five on the right and five on the left. And he made one hundred golden bowls.

καὶ ἐποίησεν τραπέζας δέκα καὶ ἔθηκεν ἐν τῷ ναῷ πέντε ἐκ δεξιῶν καὶ πέντε ἐξ εὐωνύμων καὶ ἐποίησεν φιάλας χρυσᾶς ἑκατόν

9He made the court of the priests, and the great court, and doors for the court, and overlaid the door panels with bronze.

καὶ ἐποίησεν τὴν αὐλὴν τῶν ἱερέων καὶ τὴν αὐλὴν τὴν μεγάλην καὶ θύρας τῇ αὐλῇ καὶ θυρώματα αὐτῶν κατακεχαλκωμένα χαλκῷ

10He set the sea on the right side toward the east.

καὶ τὴν θάλασσαν ἔθηκεν ἀπὸ γωνίας τοῦ οἴκου ἐκ δεξιῶν ὡς πρὸς ἀνατολὰς κατέναντι

11Then Huram made the pots and the shovels and the bowls for the altar and all its utensils. So Huram finished the work he was to do for King Solomon for the house of God,

καὶ ἐποίησεν Χιραμ τὰς κρεάγρας καὶ τὰ πυρεῖα καὶ τὴν ἐσχάραν τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου καὶ πάντα τὰ σκεύη αὐτοῦ καὶ συνετέλεσεν Χιραμ ποιῆσαι πᾶσαν τὴν ἐργασίαν ἣν ἐποίησεν Σαλωμων τῷ βασιλεῖ ἐν οἴκῳ τοῦ θεοῦ

12the two pillars and the bowl-shaped capitals on top of the two pillars, the two networks covering the two bowl-shaped capitals on top of the pillars;

στύλους δύο καὶ ἐπ᾿ αὐτῶν γωλαθ τῇ χωθαρεθ ἐπὶ τῶν κεφαλῶν τῶν στύλων δύο καὶ δίκτυα δύο συγκαλύψαι τὰς κεφαλὰς τῶν χωθαρεθ ἅ ἐστιν ἐπὶ τῶν κεφαλῶν τῶν στύλων

13four hundred pomegranates for the two networks—two rows of pomegranates for each network, to cover the two bowl-shaped capitals on the pillars.

καὶ κώδωνας χρυσοῦς τετρακοσίους εἰς τὰ δύο δίκτυα καὶ δύο γένη ῥοΐσκων ἐν τῷ δικτύῳ τῷ ἑνὶ τοῦ συγκαλύψαι τὰς δύο γωλαθ τῶν χωθαρεθ ἅ ἐστιν ἐπάνω τῶν στύλων

14He made carts and put basins on the carts,

καὶ τὰς μεχωνωθ ἐποίησεν δέκα καὶ τοὺς λουτῆρας ἐποίησεν ἐπὶ τῶν μεχωνωθ

15and one sea with twelve oxen under it,

καὶ τὴν θάλασσαν μίαν καὶ τοὺς μόσχους τοὺς δώδεκα ὑποκάτω αὐτῆς

16and tripods and buckets and basins and forks and all the other utensils. Huram his master craftsman made them of pure bronze for King Solomon for the house of the Lord.

καὶ τοὺς ποδιστῆρας καὶ τοὺς ἀναλημπτῆρας καὶ τοὺς λέβητας καὶ τὰς κρεάγρας καὶ πάντα τὰ σκεύη αὐτῶν ἃ ἐποίησεν Χιραμ καὶ ἀνήνεγκεν τῷ βασιλεῖ Σαλωμων ἐν οἴκῳ κυρίου χαλκοῦ καθαροῦ

17The king had them cast in clay molds in the plain of Jordan between Succoth and Zeredah.

ἐν τῷ περιχώρῳ τοῦ Ιορδάνου ἐχώνευσεν αὐτὰ ὁ βασιλεὺς ἐν τῷ πάχει τῆς γῆς ἐν οἴκῳ Σοκχωθ καὶ ἀνὰ μέσον Σιρδαθα

18And Solomon had all these articles made in such great quantity that the weight of the bronze was not determined.

καὶ ἐποίησεν Σαλωμων πάντα τὰ σκεύη ταῦτα εἰς πλῆθος σφόδρα ὅτι οὐκ ἐξέλιπεν ὁλκὴ τοῦ χαλκοῦ

19Solomon had all the furnishings made for the house of God, the golden altar and the tables for the showbread,

καὶ ἐποίησεν Σαλωμων πάντα τὰ σκεύη οἴκου κυρίου καὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριον τὸ χρυσοῦν καὶ τὰς τραπέζας καὶ ἐπ᾿ αὐτῶν ἄρτοι προθέσεως

20the lamp stands with their lamps of pure gold, to burn in the prescribed manner in front of the inner sanctuary,

καὶ τὰς λυχνίας καὶ τοὺς λύχνους τοῦ φωτὸς κατὰ τὸ κρίμα καὶ κατὰ πρόσωπον τοῦ δαβιρ χρυσίου καθαροῦ

21with the tongs and the lamps and the cups and the censers of pure gold.

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

22The door of the sanctuary, the inner door to the most holy place, and the doors of the main hall of the temple were gold.

καὶ ἡ θύρα τοῦ οἴκου ἡ ἐσωτέρα εἰς τὰ ἅγια τῶν ἁγίων εἰς τὰς θύρας τοῦ οἴκου τοῦ ναοῦ χρυσᾶς
