I Kings 6 (kjv)

And it came to pass in the four^H702 hundred^{H3967 H8141} and eightieth^H8084 year^H8141 after the children^H1121 of Israel^H3478 were come out^H3318 of the land^H776 of Egypt^H4714, in the fourth^H7243 year^H8141 of Solomon's^H8010 reign^H4427 over Israel^H3478, in the month^H2320 Zif^H2099, which is the second^H8145 month^H2320, that he began to build^H1129 the house^H1004 of the LORD^H3068.²And the house^H1004 which king^H4428 Solomon^H8010 built^H1129 for the LORD^H3068, the length^H753 thereof was threescore^H8346 cubits^H520, and the breadth^H7341 thereof twenty^H6242 cubits, and the height^H6967 thereof thirty^H7970 cubits^H520.³And the porch^H197 before^H6440 the temple^H1964 of the house^H1004, twenty^H6242 cubits^H520 was the length^H753 thereof, according to the breadth^H7341 of the house^H1004; and ten^H6235 cubits^H520 was the breadth^H7341 thereof before the house^H1004.⁴And for the house^H1004 he made^H6213 windows^H2474 of narrow^H331 lights^H8261.

⁵And against the wall^H7023 of the house^H1004 he built^H1129 chambers^{H3326 H3326} round about^H5439, against the walls^H7023 of the house^H1004 round about^H5439, both of the temple^H1964 and of the oracle^H1687: and he made^H6213 chambers^H6763 round about^H5439:⁶The nethermost^H8481 chamber^{H3326 H3326} was five^H2568 cubits^H520 broad^H7341, and the middle^H8484 was six^H8337 cubits^H520 broad^H7341, and the third^H7992 was seven^H7651 cubits^H520 broad^H7341: for without in the wall of^H2351 the house^H1004 he made^H5414 narrowed rests^H4052 round about^H5439, that the beams should not be fastened^H270 in the walls^H7023 of the house^H1004.⁷And the house^H1004, when it was in building^H1129, was built^H1129 of stone^H68 made ready^H8003 before it was brought^H4551 thither: so that there was neither hammer^H4717 nor axe^H1631 nor any tool^H3627 of iron^H1270 heard^H8085 in the house^H1004, while it was in building^H1129.⁸The door^H6607 for the middle^H8484 chamber^H6763 was in the right^H3233 side^H3802 of the house^H1004: and they went up^H5927 with winding stairs^H3883 into the middle^H8484 chamber, and out of the middle^H8484 into the third^H7992.⁹So he built^H1129 the house^H1004, and finished^H3615 it; and covered^H5603 the house^H1004 with beams^H1356 and boards^H7713 of cedar^H730.¹⁰And then he built^H1129 chambers^{H3326 H3326} against all the house^H1004, five^H2568 cubits^H520 high^H6967: and they rested^H270 on the house^H1004 with timber^H6086 of cedar^H730.

¹¹And the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came to Solomon^H8010, saying^H559,¹²Concerning this house^H1004 which thou art in building^H1129, if thou wilt walk^H3212 in my statutes^H2708, and execute^H6213 my judgments^H4941, and keep^H8104 all my commandments^H4687 to walk^H3212 in them; then will I perform^H6965 my word^H1697 with thee, which I spake^H1696 unto David^H1732 thy father^H1:¹³And I will dwell^H7931 among^H8432 the children^H1121 of Israel^H3478, and will not forsake^H5800 my people^H5971 Israel^H3478.¹⁴So Solomon^H8010 built^H1129 the house^H1004, and finished^H3615 it.

¹⁵And he built^H1129 the walls^H7023 of the house^H1004 within^H1004 with boards^H6763 of cedar^H730, both the floor^H7172 of the house^H1004, and the walls^H7023 of the cieling^H5604: and he covered^H6823 them on the inside^H1004 with wood^H6086, and covered^H6823 the floor^H7172 of the house^H1004 with planks^H6763 of fir^H1265.¹⁶And he built^H1129 twenty^H6242 cubits^H520 on the sides^H3411 of the house^H1004, both^H4480 the floor^H7172 and the walls^H7023 with boards^H6763 of cedar^H730: he even built^H1129 them for it within^H1004, even for the oracle^H1687, even for the most^H6944 holy^H6944 place.¹⁷And the house^H1004, that is, the temple^H1964 before^H3942 it, was forty^H705 cubits^H520 long.¹⁸And the cedar^H730 of the house^H1004 within^H6441 was carved^H4734 with knops^H6497 and open^H6362 flowers^H6731: all was cedar^H730; there was no stone^H68 seen^H7200.¹⁹And the oracle^H1687 he prepared^H3559 in^H8432 the house^H1004 within^H6441, to set^H5414 there the ark^H727 of the covenant^H1285 of the LORD^H3068.²⁰And the oracle^H1687 in the forepart^H6440 was twenty^H6242 cubits^H520 in length^H753, and twenty^H6242 cubits^H520 in breadth^H7341, and twenty^H6242 cubits^H520 in the height^H6967 thereof: and he overlaid^H6823 it with pure^H5462 gold^H2091; and so covered^H6823 the altar^H4196 which was of cedar^H730.²¹So Solomon^H8010 overlaid^H6823 the house^H1004 within^H6441 with pure^H5462 gold^H2091: and he made a partition^H5674 by the chains^{H7572 H7572} of gold^H2091 before^H6440 the oracle^H1687; and he overlaid^H6823 it with gold^H2091.²²And the whole house^H1004 he overlaid^H6823 with gold^H2091, until he had finished^H8552 all the house^H1004: also the whole altar^H4196 that was by the oracle^H1687 he overlaid^H6823 with gold^H2091.

²³And within the oracle^H1687 he made^H6213 two^H8147 cherubims^H3742 of olive^H8081 tree^H6086, each ten^H6235 cubits^H520 high^H6967.²⁴And five^H2568 cubits^H520 was the one^H259 wing^H3671 of the cherub^H3742, and five^H2568 cubits^H520 the other^H8145 wing^H3671 of the cherub^H3742: from the uttermost part^H7098 of the one wing^H3671 unto the uttermost part^H7098 of the other^H3671 were ten^H6235 cubits^H520.²⁵And the other^H8145 cherub^H3742 was ten^H6235 cubits^H520: both^H8147 the cherubims^H3742 were of one^H259 measure^H4060 and one^H259 size^H7095.²⁶The height^H6967 of the one^H259 cherub^H3742 was ten^H6235 cubits^H520, and so was it of the other^H8145 cherub^H3742.²⁷And he set^H5414 the cherubims^H3742 within^H8432 the inner^H6442 house^H1004: and they stretched forth^H6566 the wings^H3671 of the cherubims^H3742, so that the wing^H3671 of the one^H259 touched^H5060 the one wall^H7023, and the wing^H3671 of the other^H8145 cherub^H3742 touched^H5060 the other^H8145 wall^H7023; and their wings^H3671 touched^H5060 one^H3671 another^H3671 in the midst^H8432 of the house^H1004.²⁸And he overlaid^H6823 the cherubims^H3742 with gold^H2091.²⁹And he carved^H7049 all the walls^H7023 of the house^H1004 round about^H4524 with carved^H6603 figures^H4734 of cherubims^H3742 and palm trees^H8561 and open^H6362 flowers^H6731, within^H6441 and without^H2435.³⁰And the floor^H7172 of the house^H1004 he overlaid^H6823 with gold^H2091, within^H6441 and without^H2435.

³¹And for the entering^H6607 of the oracle^H1687 he made^H6213 doors^H1817 of olive^H8081 tree^H6086: the lintel^H352 and side posts^H4201 were a fifth part^H2549 of the wall.³²The two^H8147 doors^H1817 also were of olive^H8081 tree^H6086; and he carved^H7049 upon them carvings^H4734 of cherubims^H3742 and palm trees^H8561 and open^H6362 flowers^H6731, and overlaid^H6823 them with gold^H2091, and spread^H7286 gold^H2091 upon the cherubims^H3742, and upon the palm trees^H8561.³³So also made^H6213 he for the door^H6607 of the temple^H1964 posts^H4201 of olive^H8081 tree^H6086, a fourth part^H7243 of the wall.³⁴And the two^H8147 doors^H1817 were of fir^H1265 tree^H6086: the two^H8147 leaves^H6763 of the one^H259 door^H1817 were folding^H1550, and the two^H8147 leaves^H7050 of the other^H8145 door^H1817 were folding^H1550.³⁵And he carved^H7049 thereon cherubims^H3742 and palm trees^H8561 and open^H6362 flowers^H6731: and covered^H6823 them with gold^H2091 fitted^H3474 upon the carved work^H2707.

³⁶And he built^H1129 the inner^H6442 court^H2691 with three^H7969 rows^H2905 of hewed stone^H1496, and a row^H2905 of cedar^H730 beams^H3773.

³⁷In the fourth^H7243 year^H8141 was the foundation^H3245 of the house^H1004 of the LORD^H3068 laid^H3245, in the month^H3391 Zif^H2099:³⁸And in the eleventh^{H259 H6240} year^H8141, in the month^H3391 Bul^H945, which is the eighth^H8066 month^H2320, was the house^H1004 finished^H3615 throughout all the parts^H1697 thereof, and according to all the fashion^H4941 of it. So was he seven^H7651 years^H8141 in building^H1129 it.
