1 T hen SolomonH8010 beganH2490 to buildH1129 the houseH1004 of JehovahH3068 at JerusalemH3389 on mountH2022 Moriah,H4179 where [Jehovah] appearedH7200 unto DavidH1732 his father,H1 which he made ready in the placeH4725 that DavidH1732 had appointed,H3559 in the threshing-floorH1637 of OrnanH771 the Jebusite.H2983
2 And he beganH2490 to buildH1129 in the secondH8145 [day] of the secondH8145 month,H2320 in the fourthH702 yearH8141 of his reign.H4438
3 Now these are the foundations which SolomonH8010 laidH3245 for the buildingH1129 of the houseH1004 of God.H430 The lengthH753 by cubitsH520 after the firstH7223 measureH4060 was threescoreH8346 cubits,H520 and the breadthH7341 twentyH6242 cubits.H520
4 And the porchH197 that was beforeH6440 [the house], the lengthH753 of it, according to the breadthH7341 of the house,H1004 was twentyH6242 cubits,H520 and the heightH1363 a hundredH3967 and twenty;H6242 and he overlaidH6823 it withinH6441 with pureH2889 gold.H2091
5 And the greaterH1419 houseH1004 he ceiledH2645 with fir-wood,H1265 H6086 which he overlaidH2645 with fineH2896 gold,H2091 and wroughtH5927 thereon palm-treesH8561 and chains.H8333
6 And he garnishedH6823 the houseH1004 with preciousH3368 stonesH68 for beauty:H8597 and the goldH2091 was goldH2091 of Parvaim.H6516
7 He overlaidH2645 also the house,H1004 the beams,H6982 the thresholds,H5592 and the wallsH7023 thereof, and the doorsH1817 thereof, with gold;H2091 and gravedH6605 cherubimH3742 on the walls.H7023
8 And he madeH6213 the mostH6944 holyH6944 house:H1004 the lengthH753 thereof, according toH6440 the breadthH7341 of the house,H1004 was twentyH6242 cubits,H520 and the breadthH7341 thereof twentyH6242 cubits;H520 and he overlaidH2645 it with fineH2896 gold,H2091 amounting to sixH8337 hundredH3967 talents.H3603
9 And the weightH4948 of the nailsH4548 was fiftyH2572 shekelsH8255 of gold.H2091 And he overlaidH2645 the upper chambersH5944 with gold.H2091
10 And in the mostH6944 holyH6944 houseH1004 he madeH6213 twoH8147 cherubimH3742 of imageH6816 work;H4639 and they overlaidH6823 them with gold.H2091
11 And the wingsH3671 of the cherubimH3742 were twentyH6242 cubitsH520 long:H753 the wingH3671 of the oneH259 [cherub] was fiveH2568 cubits,H520 reachingH5060 to the wallH7023 of the house;H1004 and the otherH312 wingH3671 was [likewise] fiveH2568 cubits,H520 reachingH5060 to the wingH3671 of the otherH312 cherub.H3742
12 And the wingH3671 of the otherH259 cherubH3742 was fiveH2568 cubits,H520 reachingH5060 to the wallH7023 of the house;H1004 and the otherH312 wingH3671 was fiveH2568 cubitsH520 [also], joiningH1695 to the wingH3671 of the otherH312 cherub.H3742
13 The wingsH3671 of these cherubimH3742 spread themselves forthH6566 twentyH6242 cubits:H520 and they stoodH5975 on their feet,H7272 and their facesH6440 were towardH1004 the house.
14 And he madeH6213 the veilH6532 of blue,H8504 and purple,H713 and crimson,H3758 and fine linen,H948 and wroughtH5927 cherubimH3742 thereon.
15 Also he madeH6213 beforeH6440 the houseH1004 twoH8147 pillarsH5982 of thirtyH7970 and fiveH2568 cubitsH520 high,H753 and the capitalH6858 that was on the topH7218 of each of them was fiveH2568 cubits.H520
16 And he madeH6213 chainsH8333 in the oracle,H1687 and putH5414 [them] on the topsH7218 of the pillars;H5982 and he madeH6213 a hundredH3967 pomegranates,H7416 and putH5414 them on the chains.H8333
17 And he set upH6965 the pillarsH5982 beforeH6440 the temple,H1964 oneH259 on the right hand,H3225 and the otherH259 on the left;H8040 and calledH7121 the nameH8034 of that on the right handH3233 Jachin,H3199 and the nameH8034 of that on the leftH8042 Boaz.H1162
