Revised Version 1895
1Then SolomonH8010 beganH2490 to buildH1129 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 at JerusalemH3389 in mountH2022 MoriahH4179, whereH834 the LORDH3068 appearedH7200 unto DavidH1732 his fatherH1, whichH834 he madeH3559 readyH3559 in the placeH4725 that DavidH1732 had appointedH3559, in the threshing-floor of OrnanH771 the JebusiteH2983. 2And he beganH2490 to buildH1129 in the secondH8145 dayH2320 of the secondH8145 monthH2320, in the fourthH702 yearH8141 of his reignH4438. 3Now theseH428 are the foundationsH3245 whichH428 SolomonH8010 laidH3245 for the buildingH1129 of the houseH1004 of GodH430. The lengthH753 by cubitsH520 after the firstH7223 measureH520 was threescore cubitsH520, and the breadthH7341 twentyH6242 cubitsH520. 4And the porchH197 that was beforeH6440 the houseH1004, the lengthH753 of it, accordingH5921 to the breadthH7341 of the houseH1004, was twentyH6242 cubitsH520, and the heightH1363 an hundredH3967 and twentyH6242: and he overlaidH6823 it withinH5921 with pureH2889 goldH2091. 5And the greaterH1419 houseH1004 he cieled with firH1265 treeH6086, whichH6086 he overlaidH2645 with fine goldH2091, and wrought thereonH5921 palmH8561 treesH6086 and chainsH8333: 6And he garnished the houseH1004 with preciousH3368 stonesH68 for beautyH8597: and the goldH2091 was goldH2091 of ParvaimH6516. 7He overlaidH2645 also the houseH1004, the beamsH6982, the thresholdsH5592, and the wallsH7023 thereof, and the doorsH1817 thereof, with goldH2091; and graved cherubimH3742 on the wallsH7023. 8And he madeH6213 the mostH6944 holyH6944 houseH1004; the lengthH753 thereof, accordingH5921 to the breadthH7341 of the houseH1004, was twentyH6242 cubitsH520, and the breadthH7341 thereof twentyH6242 cubitsH520: and he overlaidH2645 it with fine goldH2091, amounting to sixH8337 hundredH3967 talentsH3603. 9And the weightH4948 of the nailsH4548 was fiftyH2572 shekelsH8255 of goldH2091. And he overlaidH2645 the upperH5944 chambersH5944 with goldH2091. 10And in the mostH6944 holyH6944 houseH1004 he madeH6213 twoH8147 cherubimH3742 of image workH4639; and they overlaidH6823 them with goldH2091. 11And the wingsH3671 of the cherubimH3742 were twentyH6242 cubitsH520 longH753: the wingH3671 of the one cherubH3742 was fiveH2568 cubitsH520, reachingH5060 to the wallH7023 of the houseH1004; and the otherH312 wingH3671 was likewise fiveH2568 cubitsH520, reachingH5060 to the wingH3671 of the otherH312 cherubH3742. 12And the wingH3671 of the otherH312 cherubH3742 was fiveH2568 cubitsH520, reachingH5060 to the wallH7023 of the houseH1004: and the otherH312 wingH3671 was fiveH2568 cubitsH520 also, joining to the wingH3671 of the otherH312 cherubH3742. 13The wingsH3671 of theseH428 cherubimH3742 spreadH6566 themselvesH1992 forth twentyH6242 cubitsH520: and they stoodH5975 on their feetH7272, and their facesH6440 were towardH5921 the houseH1004. 14And he madeH6213 the veilH6532 of blueH8504, and purpleH713, and crimsonH3758, and fineH948 linenH948, and wrought cherubimH3742 thereonH5921. 15Also he madeH6213 beforeH6440 the houseH1004 twoH8147 pillarsH5982, of thirtyH7970 and fiveH2568 cubitsH520 highH753, and the chapiter that was on the topH7218 of eachH8147 of them was fiveH2568 cubitsH520. 16And he madeH6213 chainsH8333 in the oracle, and putH5414 them on the topsH7218 of the pillarsH5982; and he madeH6213 an hundredH3967 pomegranatesH7416, and putH5414 them on the chainsH8333. 17And he setH6965 upH6965 the pillarsH5982 beforeH6440 the templeH1964, one on the rightH3225 handH3225, and the otherH259 on the leftH8040; and calledH7121 the nameH8034 of that on the rightH3225 handH3225 JachinH3199, and the nameH8034 of that on the leftH8040 BoazH1162.
