1 Kings 7

1And SolomonH8010 was thirteen yearsH8141 buildingH1129 his own houseH1004; and he finishedH3615 all his houseH1004. 2And he builtH1129 the houseH1004 of the forestH3293 of LebanonH3844; its lengthH753 was a hundredH3967 cubitsH520, and its breadthH7341 fiftyH2572 cubitsH520, and its heightH6967 thirtyH7970 cubitsH520, upon fourH702 rowsH2905 of cedar-pillars, with cedar-beams upon the pillarsH5982; 3and it was coveredH5603 with cedarH730 above upon the side-chambers, which were on forty-fiveH705 pillarsH5982, fifteen in a rowH2905. 4And there were cross-beams in threeH7969 rowsH2905, and windowH4237 was against windowH4237 in threeH7969 ranks. 5And all the doorsH6607 and posts were squareH7251, with an architrave; and windowH4237 was against windowH4237 in threeH7969 ranks. 6And he madeH6213 the porchH197 of pillarsH5982; its lengthH753 was fiftyH2572 cubitsH520, and its breadthH7341 thirtyH7970 cubitsH520; and there was a porchH197 in front of them; and there were pillarsH5982, and steps in front of them. 7And he madeH6213 the porchH197 for the throneH3678 whereH834 he judgedH8199, the porchH197 of judgmentH4941; and it was coveredH5603 with cedarH730 from floorH7172 to floorH7172. 8And his houseH1004 whereH834 he dweltH3427 had another courtH2691 within the porchH197, which wasH1961 of the like workH4639. And he madeH6213, like to this porchH197, a houseH1004 for Pharaoh's daughterH1323, whom SolomonH8010 had takenH3947. 9All these [buildings] were of costlyH3368 stonesH68, hewnH1496 stonesH68, according to the measures, sawed with sawsH4050, within and without, even from the foundation to the coping, and on the outsideH2351 as far as the greatH1419 courtH2691. 10And the foundations were of costlyH3368 stonesH68, greatH1419 stonesH68, stonesH68 of tenH6235 cubitsH520 and stonesH68 of eightH8083 cubitsH520. 11And above were costlyH3368 stonesH68, hewnH1496 stonesH68, according to the measures, and cedarH730. 12And the greatH1419 courtH2691 roundH5439 about had threeH7969 rowsH2905 of hewnH1496 stonesH1496, and a rowH2905 of cedar-beams; and so it was for 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 a widow's sonH1121 of the tribeH4294 of NaphtaliH5321, and his fatherH1 was a manH376 of Tyre, a worker in brass; and he was fullH4390 of wisdomH2451 and understandingH8394 and knowledgeH1847, to do all kinds of works in brass. And he cameH935 to kingH4428 SolomonH8010, and madeH6213 all his workH4399. 15And he formed the twoH8147 pillarsH5982 of brass; the heightH6967 of oneH259 pillarH5982 was eighteen cubitsH520, and a lineH2339 of twelve cubitsH520 encompassed the secondH8145 pillarH5982. 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; 17[and] nets of checker-work, 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. 18And he madeH6213 pomegranatesH7416, namely twoH8147 rowsH2905 roundH5439 about upon the oneH259 networkH7639, to coverH3680 the capitalsH3805 that were upon the topH7218 of the pillarsH5982; and so he did for the other capitalH3805. 19And the capitalsH3805 that were upon the topH7218 of the pillarsH5982 were of lily-work [as] in the porchH197, fourH702 cubitsH520. 20And the capitalsH3805 upon the twoH8147 pillarsH5982, above alsoH1571, closeH5980 to the enlargement which was behind the networkH7639, had twoH8147 hundredH3967 pomegranatesH7416 in rowsH2905 roundH5439 about, [alsoH1571] on the other capitalH3805. 21And he setH6965 up the pillarsH5982 for the porchH197 of the templeH1964; and he setH6965 up the rightH3233 pillarH5982, and calledH7121 its nameH8034 Jachin; and he setH6965 up the left pillarH5982, and calledH7121 its nameH8034 BoazH1162. 22And upon the topH7218 of the pillarsH5982 was lily-work; and the workH4399 of the pillarsH5982 was finishedH8552. 23And he madeH6213 the seaH3220, molten, tenH6235 cubitsH520 from brim to brim, roundH5439 all about; and its heightH6967 was fiveH2568 cubitsH520; and a line of thirtyH7970 cubitsH520 encompassed it roundH5439 about. 24And under the brim of it roundH5439 about there were colocynths, encompassing it, tenH6235 in a cubitH520 enclosing the seaH3220 roundH5439 about; twoH8147 rowsH2905 of colocynths, 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 above upon them, and all their hinder partsH268 were inward. 26And its thicknessH5672 was a hand-breadth, and its brim was like the workH4639 of the brim of a cupH3563, with lily-blossoms; it heldH3557 two thousandH505 bathsH1324. 27And he madeH6213 tenH6235 bases of brass: fourH702 cubitsH520 was the lengthH753 of oneH259 base, and the breadthH7341 fourH702 cubitsH520, and the heightH6967 threeH7969 cubitsH520. 28And the workH4639 of the bases was this: they had panels, and the panels were between the fillets. 29And on the panels that were between the fillets were lionsH738, oxenH1241 and cherubimH3742; and over the fillets there was a baseH3653 above; and beneath the lionsH738 and oxenH1241 were garlands of festoon-work. 30And every base had fourH702 wheelsH212 of brass, and axles of brass; and on its fourH702 corners were shoulder-pieces: under the laverH3595 were shoulder-pieces molten, behind every garland. 31And the mouthH6310 of it within the crown and above was a cubitH520; and its mouthH6310 was rounded, [as] the workH4639 of the baseH3653, a cubitH520 and a halfH2677; and alsoH1571 upon its mouthH6310 was sculpture; but their panels were squareH7251, not roundH5696. 32And the fourH702 wheelsH212 were under the panels; and the supports 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 supports, and their rimsH1354, and their spokes and their naves were all molten. 34And there were fourH702 shoulder-pieces to the fourH702 cornersH6438 of oneH259 base; of the base itself were its shoulder-pieces. 35And in the topH7218 of the base there was a circular elevation of halfH2677 a cubitH520 roundH5439 about; and on the topH7218 of the base its stays and its panels were of the same. 36And he engravedH6605 on the plates of its stays and on its panels cherubimH3742, lionsH738 and palm-trees, according to the space upon each; and garlands were roundH5439 about. 37After this [manner] he madeH6213 the tenH6235 bases: all of them had oneH259 castingH4165, oneH259 measure, oneH259 form. 38And he madeH6213 tenH6235 lavers of brass: oneH259 laverH3595 contained fortyH705 bathsH1324; every laverH3595 was fourH702 cubitsH520; upon every oneH259 of the tenH6235 bases oneH259 laverH3595. 39And he putH5414 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, over against the southH5045. 40And HiramH2438 madeH6213 the lavers, and the shovelsH3257, and the bowlsH4219. So HiramH2438 endedH3615 doing all the workH4399 that he madeH6213 for kingH4428 SolomonH8010 [for] the houseH1004 of Jehovah: 41twoH8147 pillarsH5982, and the globes of the capitalsH3805 that were on the topH7218 of the pillarsH5982, twoH8147; and the twoH8147 networksH7639, to coverH3680 the twoH8147 globes of the capitalsH3805 which were on the topH7218 of the pillarsH5982; 42and the fourH702 hundredH3967 pomegranatesH7416 for the twoH8147 networksH7639, twoH8147 rowsH2905 of pomegranatesH7416 for oneH259 networkH7639, to coverH3680 the twoH8147 globes of the capitalsH3805 which were upon the pillarsH5982; 43and the tenH6235 bases, and the tenH6235 lavers on the bases; 44and oneH259 seaH3220, and the twelve oxenH1241 under the seaH3220; 45and the potsH5518, and the shovelsH3257, and the bowlsH4219. And all these thingsH428, which HiramH2438 madeH6213 kingH4428 SolomonH8010 for the houseH1004 of Jehovah, were of bright brass. 46In the plain of the JordanH3383 did the kingH4428 castH3332 them, in the clay-ground between SuccothH5523 and Zaretan. 47And SolomonH8010 left all the vesselsH3627 [unweighed] from their exceeding number; the weightH4948 of the brass was not ascertainedH2713. 48And SolomonH8010 madeH6213 all the vesselsH3627 that were [in] the houseH1004 of Jehovah: the golden altarH4196; and the tableH7979 of goldH2091, whereon was the shewbread; 49and the candlesticks of pureH5462 goldH2091, fiveH2568 on the rightH3225, and fiveH2568 on the left, before the oracle; and the flowers, and the lampsH5216, and the tongsH4457 of goldH2091, 50and the basons, and the knives, and the bowlsH4219, and the cups, and the censersH4289 of pureH5462 goldH2091; and the hinges of goldH2091, for the folding-doors of the innerH6442 houseH1004, the most holyH6944 placeH6944, [and] for the doorsH1817 of the houseH1004, of the temple. 51And all the workH4399 was finished that kingH4428 SolomonH8010 madeH6213 for the houseH1004 of Jehovah. And SolomonH8010 broughtH935 in the thingsH6944 that DavidH1732 his fatherH1 had dedicated; the silverH3701 and the goldH2091 and the vesselsH3627 he putH5414 among the treasuresH214 of the houseH1004 of Jehovah.
