4:1καὶ ἐποίησεν τὸ θυσιαστήριον χαλκοῦν, πήχεααον εἴκοσι μῆκος, καὶ τὸ εὕρος πήχεω εἵκοσι· ὕψος πήχεων δέκα.
4:2καὶ ἐποίησεν τὴν θάλασσαν χυτὴν, πήχεων δέκα τὴν διαμέτρησιν, στρογγύλην κυκλόθεν, καὶ πήχεαυν πέντε τὸ ὕψος, καὶ τὸ κύκλωμα πήχεαον τριάκοντα.
4:3καὶ ὁμοίωμα μόσχων ὑποκάτω αὐτῆς· κύκλῳ κυκλοῦσιν αὐτήν, πήχεις δέκα περιέχουσιν τὸν λουτῆρα κυκλόθεν· δύο γένη ἐχώνευσαν τοὺς μόσχους ἐν τῇ χαονεύσει αὐτῶν,
4:4ῇ ἐποίησαν αὐτοὺς δώδεκα μόσχους, οἱ τρεῖς βλέποντες βορρᾶν, καὶ οἱ τρεῖς δυσμάς, καὶ οἱ τρεῖς νότον, καὶ οἱ τρεῖς κατʼ ἀνατολάς· καὶ ἡ θάλασσα ἐπʼ αὐτῶν ἄνω, ἦσαν τὰ ὀπίσθα αὐτῶν ἔσω.
4:5καὶ τὸ πάχος αὐτῆς παλαιστής, καὶ τὸ χεῖλος αὐτῆς ὡς χεῖλος ποτηρίου, διαγεγλυμμένα βλαστοὺς κρίνου, χωροῦσαν μετρητὰς τρισχλίους· καὶ ἐξετέλεσεν.
4:6καὶ 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.
4:7καὶ ἐποίησεν τὰς λυχνίας τὰς χρυσᾶς δέκα κατὰ τὸ κρίμα αὐτῶν καὶ ἔθηκεν ἐν τῷ ναῷ, πέντε ἐκ δεξιῶν καὶ πέντε ἐξ ἀριστερῶν.
4:8καὶ ἐποίησεν τραπέζας δέκα καὶ ἔθηκεν ἐν τῷ ναῷ, πέντε ἐκ δεξιῶν καὶ πέντε ἐξ εὐωνύμων· καὶ ἐποίησεν φιάλας χρυσᾶς ἑκατόν·
4:9καὶ ἐποίησεν τὴν αὐλὴν τῶν ἱερέων καὶ τὴν αὐλὴν τὴν μεγάλην, καὶ θύρας τῇ αὐλῇ, καὶ θυρώματα αὐτῶν κατακεχαλκαομένα χαλκῷ.
4:10καὶ τὴν θάλασσαν ἔθηκεν ἀπὸ γωνίας τοῦ οἴκου ἐκ δεξιῶν ὡς πρὸς ἀνατολὰς κατέναντι.
4:11καὶ ἐποίησεν Κειρὰμ τὰς κρεάγρας καὶ τὰ πυρεῖα καὶ τὴν ἐσχάραν τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου καὶ πάντα τὰ σκεύη αὐτοῦ. καὶ συνετέλεσεν Κειρὰμ ποιῆσαι πᾶσαν τὴν ἐργασίαν ἣυ ἐποίησεν Σαλωμὼν τῷ βασιλεῖ ἐν οἴκῳ τοῦ θεοῦ,
4:12στύλους δύο καὶ ἐπʼ αὐτῶν γωλὰθ τῇ χωθαρὲθ ἐπὶ τῶν κεφαλῶν τῶν στύλων δύο, καὶ δίκτυα δύο συνκαλύψαι τὰς κεφαλὰς τῶν χωθαρέθ ἅ ἐστιν ἐπὶ τῶν κεφαλῶν τῶν στύλων,
4:13καὶ κώδωνας χρυσοῦς τετρακοσίους εἰς τὰ δύο δίκτυα, καὶ γένη ῥοίσκων ἐν τῷ δικτύῳ τῷ ἑνὶ τοῦ συνκαλύψαι τὰς δύο γωλὰθ τῶν χωθαρὲθ ἄ ἐστιν ἐπάνω τῶν στύλων.
4:14καὶ τὰς μεχωνὼθ ἐποίησεν δέκα, καὶ τοὺς λουτῆρας ἐποίησεν ἐπὶ τῶν μεχαονώθ,
4:15καὶ τὴν θάλασσαν μίαν καὶ τοὺς μόσχους τοὺς δώδεκα ὑποκάτω αὐτῆς,
4:16καὶ τοὺς ποδιστῆρας καὶ τοὺς ἀναλημπτῆρας καὶ τοὺς λέβητας καὶ τὰς κρεάγρας, καὶ πάντα τὰ σκεύη αὐτῶν ἃ ἐποίησεν Κειρὰμ καὶ ἀνήνεγκεν τῷ βασιλεῖ Σαλωμὼν ἐν οἴκῳ Κυρίου χαλκοῦ καθαροῦ.
4:17ἐν τῷ περιχώρῳ τοῦ Ἰορδάνου ἐχώνευσεν αὐτὰ ὁ βασιλεὺς ἐν τῷ πάχει τῆς γῆς, ἐν οἴκῳ Σεχχὼθ καὶ Ἀναμεσιρδάθαι.
4:18καὶ ἐποίησεν Σαλωμὼν πάντα τὰ σκεύη ταῦτα εἰς πλῆθος σφόδρα, ὅτι οὐκ ἐξέλιπεν ὁλκὴ τοῦ χαλκοῦ.
4:19καὶ ἐποίησεν Σαλωμὼν πάντα τὰ σκεύη οἴκου Κυρίου, καὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριον τὸ χρυσοῦν καὶ τὰς τραπέζας, καὶ ἐπʼ αὐτῶν ἄρτοι προθέσεως,
4:21καὶ λαβίδες αὐτῶν καὶ οἱ λύχνοι αὐτῶν, καὶ τὰς φιάλας καὶ τὰς θυίσκας καὶ τὰ πυρεῖα χρυσίου καθαροῦ,
4:22καὶ ἡ θύρα τοῦ οἴκου ἡ ἐσωτέρα εἰς τὰ ἅγια τῶν ἁγίων, εἰς τὰς θύρας τοῦ οἴκου τοῦ ναοῦ χρυσᾶς.¹καὶ συνετελέσθη πᾶσα ἡ ἐργασία ἣν ἐποίησεν Σαλωμῶν ἐν οἴκῳ Κυρίου.
4:220καὶ τὰς λυχνίας καὶ τοὺς λύχνους τοῦ φωτὸς κατὰ τὸ κρίμα καὶ κατὰ πρόσωπον τοῦ δαβεὶρ χρυσίου καθαροῦ,

What the layers are

L0 witness
The text as its witness or edition has it, original spelling; its dialect is a description and is never standardized.
L0.5 transliteration
For Egyptian texts: the transliteration with the editors' marks turned into the symbols ° * < > _ ^ (ruled 2026-09-10). For papyri: the edition's Leiden marks as the same symbols, and the editors' readings beside the scribe's as ‹scribe→editors› (ruled PAP-3).
L1 Cairene
Standardized Greco-Bohairic spelling and grammar, generated by code from the layer above under the rulings of the project.
L2 Kemetic
The Kemetic alphabet, generated by code from L1.
English
Quoted translations where they exist, credited; otherwise model drafts, marked as drafts.
