2 Chronicles 3:8-14
8He made the most holy place; its length was 30 feet, corresponding to the width of the temple, and its width 30 feet. He plated it with 600 talents of fine gold.
9The gold nails weighed 50 shekels; he also plated the upper areas with gold.
10In the most holy place he made two images of cherubim and plated them with gold.
11The combined wing span of the cherubs was 30 feet. One of the first cherub’s wings was seven and one-half feet long and touched one wall of the temple; its other wing was also seven and one-half feet long and touched one of the second cherub’s wings.
12Likewise one of the second cherub’s wings was seven and one-half feet long and touched the other wall of the temple; its other wing was also seven and one-half feet long and touched one of the first cherub’s wings.
13The combined wingspan of these cherubim was 30 feet. They stood upright, facing inward.
14He made the curtain out of violet, purple, crimson, and white fabrics, and embroidered on it decorative cherubim.
