HYK-Translation-a

 

Before even thinking about translation, consider the differences in European and ancient middle east languages.

 

Our language ---->
And he made a porch of pillars; the length
thereof was fifty cubits and the breadth
thereof thirty cubits and the porch was
before them and the other pillars and the
thick beam were before them Then he made a
porch for the throne where he might judge
even the porch of judgment and it was covered
with cedar from one side of the floor to the
other And his house where he dwelt had
another court within the porch which was of
the like work Solomon made also an house for
Pharaoh's daughter whom he had taken to wife
like unto this porch All these were of costly
stones according to the measures of hewed
stones sawed with saws within and without
even from the foundation unto the coping and
so on the outside toward the great court.

Even if some one had the complete ancient text in tact, the translator needs to read right to left.

NOW consider the ancient text crumbling with large segments missing.
