1 Kings 6:7-36

71The houseH1004, while it was being builtH1129, was builtH1129 of stoneH68 finishedH8003 at the quarryH4551, and neitherH3808 hammerH4717, norH3808 axeH1631, norH3808 anyH3605 ironH1270 toolH3627 was heardH8085 in the houseH1004 while it was being builtH1129.

8The doorwayH6607 for the 2lowestH8481 sideH6763 chamberH6763 was on the rightH3233 sideH3802 of the houseH1004; and they would goH5927 upH5927 by a windingH3883 staircaseH3883 to the middleH8484 story, and from the middleH8484 to the thirdH7992. 9So 3he builtH1129 the houseH1004 and finishedH3615 it; and he coveredH5603 the houseH1004 with beamsH1356 and 4planksH7713 of cedarH730. 10He also builtH1129 the storiesH3330 againstH5921 the wholeH3605 houseH1004, each 5fiveH2568 cubitsH520 highH6967; and they 6were attachedH270 to the houseH1004 with timbersH6086 of cedarH730.

11Now the wordH1697 of the LordH3068 cameH1961 to SolomonH8010, sayingH559, 12“As for thisH2088 houseH1004 whichH834 you are buildingH1129, 7ifH518 you will walkH1980 in My statutesH2708 and executeH6213 My ordinancesH4941 and keepH8104 allH3605 My commandmentsH4687 by walkingH1980 in them, then I will fulfillH6965 My wordH1697 with you whichH834 I spokeH1696 to DavidH1732 your fatherH1. 13And 8I will dwellH7931 amongH8432 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478, and 9will not abandonH5800 My peopleH5971 IsraelH3478.”

1410So SolomonH8010 builtH1129 the houseH1004 and finishedH3615 it. 15He 11builtH1129 the wallsH7023 of the houseH1004 on the insideH4480H1004 with boardsH6763 of cedarH730; from the floorH7172 of the houseH1004 to the 12ceilingH7023H5604 he paneledH6823 the walls on the insideH4480H1004 with woodH6086, and he paneledH6823 the floorH7172 of the houseH1004 with boardsH6763 of juniperH1265. 1613He also builtH1129 14twentyH6242 cubitsH520 on the rearH3411 partH3411 of the houseH1004 with boardsH6763 of cedarH730 from the floorH7172 to the 15ceilingH7023; he builtH1129 them for it on the insideH4480H1004 as an innerH1687 sanctuaryH1687, as 16the MostH6944 HolyH6944 PlaceH6944. 17The houseH1004, that is, the mainH1964 roomH1964 in frontH6440 of the inner sanctuary, was 17fortyH705 cubitsH520 long. 18There was cedarH730 insideH6441 the houseH1004, carvedH4734 in the shape of 18gourdsH6497 and openH6362 flowersH6731; everythingH3605 was cedarH730, thereH369 wasH369 noH369 stoneH68 visibleH7200. 19Then he preparedH3559 an innerH1687 sanctuaryH1687 insideH8432 the houseH1004 in order to placeH5414 thereH8033 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LordH3068. 2019The innerH1687 sanctuaryH1687 was twentyH6242 cubitsH520 in lengthH753, twentyH6242 cubitsH520 in widthH7341, and twentyH6242 cubitsH520 in heightH6967; and he overlaidH6823 it with pureH5458 goldH2091. He also paneledH6823 the altarH4196 with cedarH730. 21So SolomonH8010 overlaidH6823 the insideH4480H6441 of the houseH1004 with pureH5458 goldH2091. And he extendedH5674 chainsH7569 of goldH2091 acrossH5674 the frontH6440 of the innerH1687 sanctuaryH1687, and he overlaidH6823 it with goldH2091. 22He overlaidH6823 the entireH3605 houseH1004 with goldH2091, untilH5704 allH3605 the houseH1004 was finishedH8552. Also 20the entireH3605 altarH4196 whichH834 was by the innerH1687 sanctuaryH1687 he overlaidH6823 with goldH2091.

2321And in the innerH1687 sanctuaryH1687 he madeH6213 twoH8147 22cherubimH3742 of oliveH8081 woodH6086, each 23tenH6235 cubitsH520 highH6967. 24The oneH259 wingH3671 of the first cherubH3742 was fiveH2568 cubitsH520, and the otherH8145 wingH3671 of the first cherubH3742 was fiveH2568 cubitsH520; from the endH7098 of one wingH3671 to the endH7098 of the other wingH3671 were tenH6235 cubitsH520. 25The secondH8145 cherubH3742 was tenH6235 cubitsH520; bothH8147 of the cherubimH3742 were of the sameH259 measurementH4060 and the sameH259 formH7095. 26The heightH6967 of the oneH259 cherubH3742 was tenH6235 cubitsH520, and soH3651 was that of the otherH8145 cherubH3742. 27He placedH5414 the cherubimH3742 in the midstH8432 of the innerH6442 houseH1004, and 24the wingsH3671 of the cherubimH3742 spreadH6566 outH6566 so that the wingH3671 of the oneH259 was touchingH5060 the one wallH7023, and the wingH3671 of the otherH8145 cherubH3742 was touchingH5060 the otherH8145 wallH7023. And their wingsH3671 were touchingH5060 25endH3671 to 26endH3671 in the centerH8432 of the houseH1004. 28He also overlaidH6823 the cherubimH3742 with goldH2091.

29Then he carvedH7049 allH3605 the surroundingH4524 wallsH7023 of the houseH1004 with engravingsH4734H6603 of cherubimH3742, palmH8561 treesH8561, and openH6362 flowersH6731, for the innerH6441 and outerH2435 sanctuaries. 30And he overlaidH6823 the floorH7172 of the houseH1004 with goldH2091, for the innerH6441 and outerH2435 sanctuaries.

31And for the entranceH6607 of the innerH1687 sanctuaryH1687 he madeH6213 doorsH1817 of oliveH8081 woodH6086, the lintelH352, and five-sidedH2549 doorpostsH4201. 32So he made twoH8147 doorsH1817 of oliveH8081 woodH6086, and he carvedH7049 on them carvingsH4734 of cherubimH3742, palmH8561 treesH8561, and openH6362 flowersH6731, and overlaidH6823 them with goldH2091; and he overlaidH7286 the cherubimH3742 and the palmH8561 treesH8561 with goldH2091.

33SoH3651 too he madeH6213 for the entranceH6607 of the mainH1964 roomH1964 four-sidedH7243 doorpostsH4201 of oliveH8081 woodH6086, 34and 27twoH8147 doorsH1817 of juniperH1265 woodH6086; the twoH8147 leavesH6763 of the oneH259 doorH1817 turnedH1550 onH1550 pivotsH1550, and the twoH8147 28leavesH6763 of the otherH8145 doorH1817 turnedH1550 onH1550 pivotsH1550. 35He carvedH7049 on it cherubimH3742, palmH8561 treesH8561, and openH6362 flowersH6731; and he overlaidH6823 them with goldH2091 platedH3474 on the carvedH2707 work. 36And 29he builtH1129 the innerH6442 courtyardH2691 with threeH7969 rowsH2905 of cutH1496 stoneH1496 and a rowH2905 of cedarH730 beamsH3773.
