Da nun die zwanzig Jahre um waren, in welchen Salomo die zwei Häuser baute, des HERRN Haus und des Königs Haus,
Y aconteció al cabo de veinte años, en que Salomón había edificado las dos casas, la casa de Jehová y la casa real,
Al cabo de los veinte años en que Salomón construyó las dos casas, la casa de Jehová y el palacio real,
Au bout de vingt ans, Salomon avait bâti les deux maisons, la maison de l'Eternel et la maison du roi.
ORA in capo de’ venti anni, ne’ quali Salomone edificò le due case, la Casa del Signore, e la casa reale,
E sucedeu, ao fim de vinte anos, que Salomão edificara as duas casas; a casa do SENHOR e a casa do rei
所羅門 建造耶和華殿和王宮這兩座殿宇,用了二十年才完成。
