9So Solomon builtH1129 the templeH1004 and finished itH3615, roofingH5603 itH1004 with beamsH1356 and planksH7713 of cedarH730. 10He builtH1129 chambersH3326 all alongH5921H3605 the templeH1004, each fiveH2568 cubitsH520 highH6967 and attachedH270 to the templeH1004 with beamsH6086 of cedarH730.
11Then the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 cameH1961 toH413 SolomonH8010, sayingH559: 12“As for thisH2088 templeH1004 youH859 are buildingH1129, ifH518 you walkH1980 in My statutesH2708, carry outH6213 My ordinancesH4941, and keepH8104 allH3605 My commandmentsH4687 by walkingH1980 in them, I will fulfillH6965 through youH854 the promiseH1697 I madeH1696 toH413 your fatherH1 DavidH1732. 13And I will dwellH7931 amongH8432 the IsraelitesH1121H3478 and will notH3808 abandonH5800 My peopleH5971 IsraelH3478.”
14So SolomonH8010 builtH1129 the templeH1004 and finishedH3615 itH853. 15He linedH1129 the interiorH1004 wallsH7023 with cedarH730 panelingH6763 from the floorH7172 of the templeH1004 toH5704 the ceilingH5604, and he coveredH6823 the floorH7172H1004 with cypressH12651 boardsH6763.
16He partitioned offH1129 the twentyH6242 cubitsH520 atH4480 the rearH3411 of the templeH1004 with cedarH730 boardsH6763 from floorH7172 toH5704 ceilingH7023 to formH1129 within the templeH1004 an inner sanctuaryH1687, the Most Holy PlaceH6944.2 17And the main hallH1004H1931H1964 in front ofH6440 this room wasH1961 fortyH705 cubitsH520 long.3
18The cedarH730H413 paneling insideH6441 the templeH1004 was carvedH4734 with gourdsH6497 and openH6362 flowersH6731. EverythingH3605 was cedarH730; notH369 a stoneH68 could be seenH7200.
