1 Kings 7

1And SolomonH8010 was buildingH1129 his own houseH1004 thirteen yearsH8141, and he finishedH3615 all his houseH1004. 2For he builtH1129 the houseH1004 of the forestH3293 of LebanonH3844; the lengthH753 thereof was a hundredH3967 cubitsH520, and the breadthH7341 thereof fiftyH2572 cubitsH520, and the heightH6967 thereof thirtyH7970 cubitsH520, upon fourH702 rowsH2905 of cedarH730 pillarsH5982, with cedarH730 beamsH3773 upon the pillarsH5982. 3And it was coveredH5603 with cedarH730 above over the fortyH705 and fiveH2568 beams, that were upon the pillarsH5982; fifteen in a rowH2905. 4And there were beams in threeH7969 rowsH2905, and windowH4237 was over against windowH4237 in threeH7969 ranks. 5And all the doorsH6607 and posts were made squareH7251 with beams: and windowH4237 was over against windowH4237 in threeH7969 ranks. 6And he madeH6213 the porchH197 of pillarsH5982; the lengthH753 thereof was fiftyH2572 cubitsH520, and the breadthH7341 thereof thirtyH7970 cubitsH520; and a porchH197 before them; and pillarsH5982 and a thresholdH5646 before them. 7And he madeH6213 the porchH197 of the throneH3678 whereH834 he was to judgeH8199, even the porchH197 of judgmentH4941: and it was coveredH5603 with cedarH730 from floorH7172 to floorH7172. 8And his houseH1004 whereH834 he wasH1961 to dwellH3427, the otherH312 courtH2691 within the porchH197, wasH1961 of the like workH4639. He madeH6213 also a houseH1004 for Pharaoh’s daughterH1323 (whom SolomonH8010 had takenH3947 to wife), like unto this porchH197.

9All these were of costlyH3368 stonesH68, even of hewnH1496 stoneH68, according to measure, sawed with sawsH4050, within and without, even from the foundation unto the coping, and so on the outsideH2351 unto the greatH1419 courtH2691. 10And the foundation was of costlyH3368 stonesH68, even greatH1419 stonesH68, stonesH68 of tenH6235 cubitsH520, and stonesH68 of eightH8083 cubitsH520. 11And above were costlyH3368 stonesH68, even hewnH1496 stoneH68, according to measure, and cedar-wood. 12And the greatH1419 courtH2691 roundH5439 about had threeH7969 courses of hewnH1496 stoneH1496, and a course of cedarH730 beamsH3773; like as the innerH6442 courtH2691 of the houseH1004 of Jehovah, and the porchH197 of the houseH1004.

13And kingH4428 SolomonH8010 sentH7971 and fetched HiramH2438 out of TyreH6865. 14He was the sonH1121 of a widowH490 of the tribeH4294 of NaphtaliH5321, and his fatherH1 was a manH376 of Tyre, a worker in brass; and he was filledH4390 with wisdomH2451 and understandingH8394 and skillH2451, to workH4399 all works in brass. And he cameH935 to kingH4428 SolomonH8010, and wrought all his workH4399. 15For he fashioned the twoH8147 pillarsH5982 of brass, eighteen cubitsH520 high apiece: and a lineH2339 of twelve cubitsH520 compassed either of them about. 16And he madeH6213 twoH8147 capitalsH3805 of molten brass, to setH5414 upon the topsH7218 of the pillarsH5982: the heightH6967 of the oneH259 capitalH3805 was fiveH2568 cubitsH520, and the heightH6967 of the other capitalH3805 was fiveH2568 cubitsH520. 17There were nets of checker-work, and wreaths of chain-work, for the capitalsH3805 which were upon the topH7218 of the pillarsH5982; sevenH7651 for the oneH259 capitalH3805, and sevenH7651 for the other capitalH3805. 18So he madeH6213 the pillarsH5982; and there were twoH8147 rowsH2905 roundH5439 about upon the oneH259 networkH7639, to coverH3680 the capitalsH3805 that were upon the topH7218 of the pillarsH5982: and soH3651 did he for the other capitalH3805. 19And the capitalsH3805 that were upon the topH7218 of the pillarsH5982 in the porchH197 were of lily-work, fourH702 cubitsH520. 20And there were capitalsH3805 above alsoH1571 upon the twoH8147 pillarsH5982, closeH5980 by the bellyH990 which was beside the networkH7639: and the pomegranatesH7416 were twoH8147 hundredH3967, in rowsH2905 roundH5439 about upon the other capitalH3805. 21And he setH6965 up the pillarsH5982 at the porchH197 of the templeH1964: and he setH6965 up the rightH3233 pillarH5982, and calledH7121 the nameH8034 thereof Jachin; and he setH6965 up the left pillarH5982, and calledH7121 the nameH8034 thereof BoazH1162. 22And upon the topH7218 of the pillarsH5982 was lily-work: so was the workH4399 of the pillarsH5982 finishedH8552.

23And he madeH6213 the molten seaH3220 of tenH6235 cubitsH520 from brim to brim, roundH5439 in compass, and the heightH6967 thereof was fiveH2568 cubitsH520; and a line of thirtyH7970 cubitsH520 compassed it roundH5439 about. 24And under the brim of it roundH5439 about there were knops which did compass it, for tenH6235 cubitsH520, compassing the seaH3220 roundH5439 about: the knops were in twoH8147 rowsH2905, castH3332 when it was castH3332. 25It stoodH5975 upon twelve oxenH1241, threeH7969 looking toward the northH6828, and threeH7969 looking toward the westH3220, and threeH7969 looking toward the southH5045, and threeH7969 looking toward the eastH4217; and the seaH3220 was setH5975 upon them above, and all their hinder partsH268 were inward. 26And it was a handbreadth thick: and the brim thereof was wrought like the brim of a cupH3563, like the flower of a lilyH7799: it heldH3557 two thousandH505 bathsH1324.

27And he madeH6213 the tenH6235 bases of brass; fourH702 cubitsH520 was the lengthH753 of oneH259 base, and fourH702 cubitsH520 the breadthH7341 thereof, and threeH7969 cubitsH520 the heightH6967 of it. 28And the workH4639 of the bases was on this manner: they had panels; and there were panels between the ledges; 29and on the panels that were between the ledges were lionsH738, oxenH1241, and cherubimH3742; and upon the ledges there was a pedestal above; and beneath the lionsH738 and oxenH1241 were wreaths of hanging workH4639. 30And every base had fourH702 brazen wheelsH212, and axles of brass; and the fourH702 feet thereof had undersetters: beneath the laverH3595 were the undersetters molten, with wreaths at the sideH3802 of each. 31And the mouthH6310 of it within the capitalH3805 and above was a cubitH520: and the mouthH6310 thereof was roundH5696 after the workH4639 of a pedestal, a cubitH520 and a halfH2677; and alsoH1571 upon the mouthH6310 of it were gravings, and their panels were foursquare, not roundH5696. 32And the fourH702 wheelsH212 were underneath the panels; and the axletrees of the wheelsH212 were in the base: and the heightH6967 of a wheelH212 was a cubitH520 and halfH2677 a cubitH520. 33And the workH4639 of the wheelsH212 was like the workH4639 of a chariotH4818 wheelH212: their axletrees, and their felloes, and their spokes, and their naves, were all molten. 34And there were fourH702 undersetters at the fourH702 cornersH6438 of each base: the undersetters thereof were of the base itself. 35And in the topH7218 of the base was there a roundH5439 compass halfH2677 a cubitH520 high; and on the topH7218 of the base the stays thereof and the panels thereof were of the same. 36And on the plates of the stays thereof, and on the panels thereof, he graved cherubimH3742, lionsH738, and palm-trees, according to the space of each, with wreaths roundH5439 about. 37After this manner he madeH6213 the tenH6235 bases: all of them had oneH259 castingH4165, oneH259 measure, and oneH259 form.

38And he madeH6213 tenH6235 lavers of brass: oneH259 laverH3595 contained fortyH705 bathsH1324; and every laverH3595 was fourH702 cubitsH520; and upon every oneH259 of the tenH6235 bases oneH259 laverH3595. 39And he setH5414 the bases, fiveH2568 on the rightH3225 sideH3802 of the houseH1004, and fiveH2568 on the left sideH3802 of the houseH1004: and he setH5414 the seaH3220 on the rightH3225 sideH3802 of the houseH1004 eastward, toward the southH5045.

40And HiramH2438 madeH6213 the lavers, and the shovelsH3257, and the basins. So HiramH2438 madeH6213 an endH3615 of doing all the workH4399 that he wrought for kingH4428 SolomonH8010 in the houseH1004 of Jehovah: 41the twoH8147 pillarsH5982, and the twoH8147 bowlsH1543 of the capitalsH3805 that were on the topH7218 of the pillarsH5982; and the twoH8147 networksH7639 to coverH3680 the twoH8147 bowlsH1543 of the capitalsH3805 that were on the topH7218 of the pillarsH5982; 42and the fourH702 hundredH3967 pomegranatesH7416 for the twoH8147 networksH7639; twoH8147 rowsH2905 of pomegranatesH7416 for each networkH7639, to coverH3680 the twoH8147 bowlsH1543 of the capitalsH3805 that were upon the pillarsH5982; 43and the tenH6235 bases, and the tenH6235 lavers on the bases; 44and the oneH259 seaH3220, and the twelve oxenH1241 under the seaH3220; 45and the potsH5518, and the shovelsH3257, and the basins: even all these vesselsH3627, which HiramH2438 madeH6213 for kingH4428 SolomonH8010, in the houseH1004 of Jehovah, were of burnished brass. 46In the plain of the JordanH3383 did the kingH4428 castH3332 them, in the clay groundH127 between SuccothH5523 and ZarethanH6891. 47And SolomonH8010 left all the vesselsH3627 unweighed, because they were exceeding many: the weightH4948 of the brass could not be found out.

48And SolomonH8010 madeH6213 all the vesselsH3627 that were in the houseH1004 of Jehovah: the golden altarH4196, and the tableH7979 whereupon the showbread was, of goldH2091; 49and the candlesticks, fiveH2568 on the rightH3225 sideH3225, and fiveH2568 on the left, before the oracle, of pureH5462 goldH2091; and the flowers, and the lampsH5216, and the tongsH4457, of goldH2091; 50and the cups, and the snuffersH4212, and the basins, and the spoons, and the firepansH4289, of pureH5462 goldH2091; and the hinges, both for the doorsH1817 of the innerH6442 houseH1004, the most holyH6944 placeH6944, and for the doorsH1817 of the houseH1004, to wit, of the temple, of goldH2091.

51Thus all the workH4399 that kingH4428 SolomonH8010 wrought in the houseH1004 of Jehovah was finished. And SolomonH8010 broughtH935 in the thingsH6944 which DavidH1732 his fatherH1 had dedicated, even the silverH3701, and the goldH2091, and the vesselsH3627, and putH5414 them in the treasuriesH214 of the houseH1004 of Jehovah.
