Then
Solomon began
to build the house of the

LORD
had
appeared to his father David.
This
was
the place that David had prepared on
the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite .
And
Solomon beginneth
to build the house of Jehovah,
in Jerusalem ,
in
the
mount of
Moriah, where He
appeared to David
his father ,

the second month in the fourth year of his reign.
and
he
beginneth
to
build
in
the second `
day ',
in
the second month ,
in the fourth year of his reign.
The
foundation
that
Solomon laid
for
the house of God was
sixty cubits long
and twenty cubits wide,
according
to
the
old
standard
.
And
`in'
these
hath
Solomon been
instructed
to
build
the house of God :
The
length
`in'
cubits
by
the
former
measure
`is'
sixty cubits ,
and the
breadth
twenty cubits.
The portico
at
the front, extending
across
the width
of the temple
, was
twenty cubits long
and twenty cubits
high.
He overlaid
the
inside
with pure gold.
As
to
the porch
that
`is'
on
the front, the length
`is'
by
the
front
of the breadth
of
the
house
, twenty cubits ,
and the
height
a
hundred
and
twenty ,
and
he overlayeth
it
within
with pure gold.
He
paneled
the main
room
with cypress
, which
he overlaid
with fine
gold and decorated
with
palm
trees
and chains .
And
the large
house
he
hath
covered
with fir-trees
, and
he doth
cover
it
with good
gold ,
and causeth
to
ascend
on
it
palms
and chains ,
He adorned
the temple
with precious stones
for beauty, and its
gold was
from
Parvaim .
and
he overlayeth
the house
with precious stone
for beauty, and the
gold `is'
gold
of
Parvaim ,
He overlaid
its
beams, thresholds, walls, and doors with gold, and he
carved
cherubim
on the walls.
and
he covereth
the
house,
the
beams, the
thresholds, and
its
walls, and its
doors ,
with gold, and hath
graved
cherubs
on the walls.
Then
he made
the Most Holy Place;
its length corresponded
to
the width
of the temple—
twenty cubits long
and twenty cubits wide.
And he overlaid
the
inside
with six hundred talents of
fine
gold.
And
he maketh
the most holy house:
its length `is'
by
the front
of the breadth
of
the
house
twenty cubits ,
and its
breadth
twenty cubits ,
and he covereth
it
with good
gold,
to
six hundred talents ;
The weight of the nails was
fifty shekels of gold .
He
also
overlaid
the upper area
with gold.
and
the weight of the nails `is'
fifty shekels of gold ,
and
the upper chambers
he
hath
covered
with gold.
In the Most Holy Place
he
made
two cherubim
of
sculptured
work, and he overlaid
them with gold .
And
he
maketh
in the most holy house
two cherubs,
image
work, and he overlayeth
them with gold ;
The total
wingspan
of the cherubim
was
twenty cubits .
One
wing of the first
cherub
was
five cubits long
and
touched
the wall of the temple
, and its
other wing was
five cubits long
and
touched
the wing of the other cherub.
as
to
the wings
of the cherubs,
their
length
`is'
twenty cubits ,
the
wing of the one
`is'
five cubits ,
touching
the wall of the house
, and the
other wing `is'
five cubits ,
touching
the wing of the other cherub.
The wing of the second
cherub also
measured
five cubits and
touched
the wall of the temple
, while
its
other wing measured
five cubits and
touched
the wing of the first
cherub.
And
the wing of the other
cherub `is'
five cubits touching
the wall of the house
, and
the
other wing `is'
five cubits ,
adhering
to
the wing of the other
cherub.
So
the total
wingspan
of these cherubim
was
twenty cubits .
They stood
on their feet ,
facing
the
main
room
.
The wings
of these cherubs
are
spreading
forth
twenty cubits ,
and
they are
standing
on their feet and
their
faces
`are'
inward
.
He made
the veil
of blue, purple, and crimson yarn
and fine linen, with
cherubim
woven
into
it.
And
he maketh
the vail
of blue, and
purple, and crimson ,
and fine linen, and
causeth
cherubs
to
go
up
on
it.
In
front of the temple
he
made
two pillars, which
together
were
thirty -
five cubits high
, each
with
a
capital
on top
measuring
five cubits.
And
he
maketh
at
the
front of the house
two pillars, thirty and
five cubits in
length
, and
the
ornament
that
`is'
on their
heads
five cubits.
He made
interwoven
chains and put
them
on top
of the pillars .
He
made
a hundred pomegranates and fastened
them
into
the chainwork
.
And
he maketh
chains in
the
oracle,
and putteth
on the
heads
of the pillars ,
and
maketh
a hundred pomegranates ,
and putteth
on
the chains
.
Then
he set
up the pillars in
front of the temple, one on the south
and one on the north.
The pillar
on the south
he
named
Jachin, and the pillar
on the north
he
named
Boaz.
And
he raiseth
up the pillars on
the
front of the temple, one on the right,
and one on the left,
and
calleth
the name
of
that
on the right
Jachin, and the name
of
that
on the left
Boaz.
