Ebintu byonna Kulamu bye yakolera Kabaka Sulemaani ku lwa yeekaalu ya Mukama yabizigula n’ekikomo. 174:17 Lub 33:17Kabaka yalagira babisaanuusize mu lusenyi lwa Yoludaani, awali ettaka ery’ebbumba wakati w’e Sukkosi n’e Zereda. 184:18 1Bk 7:23Sulemaani n’akola ebintu ebyo byonna nga bingi nnyo nnyini, n’obuzito bw’ekikomo mwe byakolebwa ne butamanyibwa.

194:19 Kuv 25:23, 30Sulemaani n’akola ebintu byonna ebyole mu yeekaalu ya Katonda:

ekyoto ekya zaabu,

n’emmeeza okwabanga emigaati egy’okulaga,

21n’ebimuli, ne ttaala, ne wuuma nga byonna zaabu ntuukirivu,

224:22 a Kbl 7:14 b Lv 10:1n’ebisalako ebisirinza, ne bensani, ne bbakuli ez’okumansira akaloosa, ne fulampeni nga bya zaabu ennongoose, n’enzigi za yeekaalu, n’enzigi ez’omunda mu Kifo Ekitukuvu Ennyo, n’enzigi ez’ekisenge ekinene, nga byonna bya zaabu.

More Facts About the Temple

1Solomon made a bronze altar 30 feet long, 30 feet wide and 15 feet high. 2He made a huge metal bowl for washing. Its shape was round. It measured 15 feet from rim to rim. It was seven and a half feet high. And it was 45 feet around. 3Below the rim there was a circle of bull figures around the bowl. In every 18 inches around the bowl there were ten bulls. The bulls were arranged in two rows. They were made as part of the bowl itself.

4The bowl stood on 12 bulls. Three of them faced north. Three faced west. Three faced south. And three faced east. The bowl rested on top of them. Their rear ends were toward the center. 5The bowl was three inches thick. Its rim was like the rim of a cup. The rim was shaped like the bloom of a lily. The bowl held 18,000 gallons of water.

6Solomon made ten smaller bowls for washing. He placed five of them on the south side of the huge bowl. He placed the other five on the north side. The things used for the burnt offerings were rinsed in the smaller bowls. But the priests used the huge bowl for washing.

7Solomon made ten gold lampstands. He followed the pattern the Lord had given him. He placed the lampstands in the temple. He put five of them on the south side. He put the other five on the north side.

8He made ten tables. He placed them in the temple. He put five of them on the south side. He put the other five on the north side. He also made 100 gold sprinkling bowls.

In fact, it was impossible to add up the weight of all the bronze.
