1 Kings 6

1And it cameH1961 to passH1961 in the fourH702 hundredH3967 and eightiethH8084 yearH8141 afterH5921 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 were comeH1961 outH3318 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714, in the fourthH7243 yearH8141 of Solomon’sH8010 reignH4427 over IsraelH3478, in the monthH2320 ZivH2099, whichH1931 is the secondH8145 monthH2320, that he beganH1961 to buildH1129 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068. 2And the houseH1004 whichH834 kingH4428 SolomonH8010 builtH1129 for the LORDH3068, the lengthH753 thereof was threescore cubitsH520, and the breadthH7341 thereof twentyH6242 cubitsH520, and the heightH6967 thereof thirtyH7970 cubitsH520. 3And the porchH197 beforeH6440 the templeH1004 of the houseH1004, twentyH6242 cubitsH520 was the lengthH753 thereof, accordingH5921 to the breadthH7341 of the houseH1004; and tenH6235 cubitsH520 was the breadthH7341 thereof beforeH6440 the houseH1004. 4And for the houseH1004 he madeH6213 windowsH2474 of fixed lattice-work. 5And againstH5921 the wallH7023 of the houseH1004 he builtH1129 storiesH6763 roundH5439 aboutH5439, againstH5921 the wallsH7023 of the houseH1004 roundH5439 aboutH5439, bothH5921 of the templeH1004 and of the oracle: and he madeH6213 side-chambers roundH5439 aboutH5439: 6The nethermost story was fiveH2568 cubitsH520 broad, and the middleH8484 was sixH8337 cubitsH520 broad, and the thirdH7992 was sevenH7651 cubitsH520 broad: for on the outsideH2351 he madeH5414 rebatements in the wallH7023 of the houseH1004 roundH5439 aboutH5439, that the beams should notH1115 have holdH270 in the wallsH7023 of the houseH1004. 7And the houseH1004, when it was in buildingH1129, was builtH1129 of stoneH68 madeH3605 ready at the quarry: and there was neitherH3808 hammerH4717 norH3808 axeH1631 norH3808 anyH3605 toolH3627 of ironH1270 heardH8085 in the houseH1004, whileH1004 it was in buildingH1129. 8The doorH6607 for the middleH8484 side-chambers was in the rightH3233 sideH3802 of the houseH1004: and they wentH5927 upH5927 by windingH3883 stairsH3883 intoH413 the middleH8484 chambersH6763, and outH4480 of the middleH8484 intoH413 the thirdH7992. 9SoH853 he builtH1129 the houseH1004, and finishedH3615 it; and he coveredH5603 the houseH1004 with beams and planksH7713 of cedar. 10And he builtH1129 the stories againstH5921 allH3605 the houseH1004, eachH3605 fiveH2568 cubitsH520 highH6967: and they rested on the houseH1004 with timberH6086 of cedarH730. 11And the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 cameH1961 to SolomonH8010, sayingH559, 12Concerning this houseH1004 whichH834 thou art in buildingH1129, ifH518 thou wilt walk in my statutesH2708, and execute my judgmentsH4941, and keepH8104 allH3605 my commandmentsH4687 to walk in them; then will I establishH6965 my wordH1697 with thee, whichH834 I spake unto DavidH1732 thy fatherH1. 13And I will dwellH7931 among the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, and will notH3808 forsakeH5800 my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478. 14SoH853 SolomonH8010 builtH1129 the houseH1004, and finishedH3615 it. 15And he builtH1129 the wallsH7023 of the houseH1004 withinH1004 with boardsH6763 of cedarH730; from the floorH7172 of the houseH1004 unto the wallsH7023 of the cieling, he covered them on the insideH1004 with woodH6086: and he covered the floorH7172 of the houseH1004 with boardsH6763 of firH1265. 16And he builtH1129 twentyH6242 cubitsH520 on the hinder partH3411 of the houseH1004 with boardsH6763 of cedarH730 from the floorH7172 unto the wallsH7023: he evenH5704 builtH1129 them for it withinH1004, for an oracle, evenH5704 for the mostH6944 holyH6944 placeH6944. 17And the houseH1004, that is, the templeH1004 before the oracle, was fortyH705 cubitsH520 long. 18And there was cedarH730 on the houseH1004 withinH6441, carvedH4734 with knops and open flowers: allH3605 was cedarH730; there was noH369 stoneH68 seenH7200. 19And he preparedH3559 an oracle in the midstH8432 of the houseH1004 withinH8432, to setH5414 there the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068. 20And within the oracle was a space of 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 covered the altarH4196 with cedarH730. 21SoH5674 SolomonH8010 overlaidH6823 the houseH1004 withinH6441 with pureH5462 goldH2091: and he drew chainsH7572 of goldH2091 acrossH5674 beforeH6440 the oracle; and he overlaidH6823 it with goldH2091. 22And the wholeH3605 houseH1004 he overlaidH6823 with goldH2091, untilH5704 allH3605 the houseH1004 was finishedH8552: also the wholeH3605 altarH4196 that belonged to the oracle he overlaidH6823 with goldH2091. 23And in the oracle he madeH6213 twoH8147 cherubimH3742 of oliveH8081 woodH6086, eachH8147 tenH6235 cubitsH520 highH6967. 24And fiveH2568 cubitsH520 was the one wingH3671 of the cherubH3742, and fiveH2568 cubitsH520 the otherH259 wingH3671 of the cherubH3742: from the uttermost partH7098 of the one wingH3671 unto the uttermost partH7098 of the otherH259 were tenH6235 cubitsH520. 25And the otherH259 cherubH3742 was tenH6235 cubitsH520: bothH8147 the cherubimH3742 were of one measureH520 and one formH7095. 26The heightH6967 of the one cherubH3742 was tenH6235 cubitsH520, and soH3651 was it of the otherH259 cherubH3742. 27And he setH5414 the cherubimH3742 withinH8432 the innerH6442 houseH1004: and the wingsH3671 of the cherubimH3742 were stretchedH6566 forthH5414, soH5414 that the wingH3671 of the one touchedH5060 the one wallH7023, and the wingH3671 of the otherH259 cherubH3742 touchedH5060 the otherH259 wallH7023; and their wingsH3671 touchedH5060 one anotherH259 in the midstH8432 of the houseH1004. 28And he overlaidH6823 the cherubimH3742 with goldH2091. 29And he carvedH6603 allH3605 the wallsH7023 of the houseH1004 roundH4524 aboutH1004 with carvedH6603 figures of cherubimH3742 and palmH8561 treesH8561 and openH6440 flowers, withinH1004 and without. 30And the floorH7172 of the houseH1004 he overlaidH6823 with goldH2091, withinH6441 and without. 31And for the entering of the oracle he madeH6213 doorsH1817 of oliveH8081 woodH6086: the lintel and doorH1817 postsH4201 were a fifthH2549 partH2549 of the wall. 32SoH5921 he madeH6086 twoH8147 doorsH1817 of oliveH8081 woodH6086; and he carvedH4734 uponH5921 them carvingsH4734 of cherubimH3742 and palmH8561 treesH6086 and open flowers, and overlaidH6823 them with goldH2091; and he spreadH7286 the goldH2091 uponH5921 the cherubimH3742, and uponH5921 the palmH8561 treesH6086. 33SoH3651 also madeH6213 he for the entering of the templeH1964 doorH6607 postsH4201 of oliveH8081 woodH6086, outH853 of a fourthH7243 part of the wall; 34and twoH8147 doorsH1817 of firH1265 woodH6086; the twoH8147 leavesH1817 of the one doorH1817 were foldingH1550, and the twoH8147 leavesH1817 of the otherH259 doorH1817 were foldingH1550. 35And he carvedH2707 thereonH5921 cherubimH3742 and palmH8561 treesH8561 and open flowers: and he overlaidH6823 them with goldH2091 fitted uponH5921 the graven work. 36And he builtH1129 the innerH6442 courtH2691 with threeH7969 rowsH2905 of hewnH1496 stoneH1496, and a rowH2905 of cedarH730 beamsH3773. 37In the fourthH7243 yearH8141 was the foundationH3245 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 laidH3245, in the monthH3391 ZivH2099. 38And in the eleventhH6240 yearH8141, in the monthH2320 BulH945, whichH1931 is the eighthH8066 monthH2320, was the houseH1004 finishedH3615 throughoutH3605 allH3605 the partsH1697 thereof, and accordingH4941 to allH3605 the fashionH1697 of it. SoH1697 was he sevenH7651 yearsH8141 in buildingH1129 it.
