141So SolomonH8010 builtH1129 the houseH1004 and finishedH3615 it.

15Then he 2builtH1129 the wallsH7023 of the houseH1004 on the insideH4480H1004 with boardsH6763 of cedarH730; from the floorH7172 of the houseH1004 to the 3ceilingH7023H5604 he overlaidH6823 the walls on the insideH4480H1004 with woodH6086, and he overlaidH6823 the floorH7172 of the houseH1004 with boardsH6763 of cypressH1265.

164He builtH1129 twentyH6242 cubitsH520 on the rearH3411 partH3411 of the houseH1004 with boardsH6763 of cedarH730 from the floorH7172 to the 5ceilingH7023; he builtH1129 them for it on the insideH4480H1004 as an innerH1687 sanctuaryH1687, even as 6the mostH6944 holyH6944 placeH6944.
