1 Kings 6:19-28

19And he preparedH3559 the oracle in the midstH8432 of the houseH1004 within, to setH5414 there the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of Jehovah.

20And the oracle within was twentyH6242 cubitsH520 in lengthH753, and twentyH6242 cubitsH520 in breadthH7341, and twentyH6242 cubitsH520 in the heightH6967 thereof; and he overlaidH6823 it with pureH5462 goldH2091; and he overlaidH6823 the cedar-wood altarH4196 —

21and SolomonH8010 overlaidH6823 the houseH1004 within with pureH5462 goldH2091, and shutH5462 off the oracle in front with chains of goldH2091, and overlaidH6823 it with goldH2091.

22And the whole houseH1004 he overlaidH6823 with goldH2091, the whole houseH1004 entirely; also the whole altarH4196 that was by the oracle he overlaidH6823 with goldH2091.

23And he madeH6213 in the oracle twoH8147 cherubimH3742 of olive-wood, tenH6235 cubitsH520 high;

24and oneH259 wingH3671 of the cherubH3742 was fiveH2568 cubitsH520, and fiveH2568 cubitsH520 the other wingH3671 of the cherubH3742, tenH6235 cubitsH520 from the endH7098 of oneH259 wingH3671 to the endH7098 of the other wingH3671;

25and the other cherubH3742 was tenH6235 cubitsH520: both the cherubimH3742 were of oneH259 measure and oneH259 form.

26The heightH6967 of the oneH259 cherubH3742 was tenH6235 cubitsH520, and soH3651 of the other cherubH3742.

27And he setH5414 the cherubimH3742 in the midstH8432 of the innerH6442 houseH1004; and the wingsH3671 of the cherubimH3742 were stretched forth, so that the wingH3671 of the oneH259 touchedH5060 the wallH7023, and the wingH3671 of the other cherubH3742 touchedH5060 the other wallH7023; and their wingsH3671 touchedH5060, wingH3671 to wingH3671, in the midstH8432 of the houseH1004.

28And he overlaidH6823 the cherubimH3742 with goldH2091.
