Then Solomon
<08010>
began
<02490> (8686)
to build
<01129> (8800)
the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>
at Jerusalem
<03389>
in mount
<02022>
Moriah
<04179>_,
where [the LORD] appeared
<07200> (8738)
unto David
<01732>
his father
<01>_,
in the place
<04725>
that David
<01732>
had prepared
<03559> (8689)
in the threshingfloor
<01637>
of Ornan
<0771>
the Jebusite
<02983>_.
{where...: or, which was seen of David his father} {Ornan: also called, Araunah}
And he began
<02490> (8686)
to build
<01129> (8800)
in the second
<08145>
[day] of the second
<08145>
month
<02320>_,
in the fourth
<0702>
year
<08141>
of his reign
<04438>_.
Now these [are the things wherein] Solomon
<08010>
was instructed
<03245> (8717)
for the building
<01129> (8800)
of the house
<01004>
of God
<0430>_.
The length
<0753>

<08346>

<0520>_,

{instructed: Heb. founded}
And the porch
<0197>
that [was] in the front
<06440>
[of the house], the length
<0753>
[of it was] according to the breadth
<07341>
of the house
<01004>_,

<06242>

<0520>_,

and he overlaid
<06823> (8762)
it within
<06441>
with pure
<02889>
gold
<02091>_.
And the greater
<01419>
house
<01004>
he cieled
<02645> (8765)
with fir
<01265>
tree
<06086>_,
which he overlaid
<02645> (8762)
with fine
<02896>
gold
<02091>_,
and set
<05927> (8686)
thereon palm trees
<08561>
and chains
<08333>_.
And he garnished
<06823> (8762)
the house
<01004>
with precious
<03368>
stones
<068>
for beauty
<08597>_:
and the gold
<02091>
[was] gold
<02091>

<06516>_.
{garnished: Heb. covered}
He overlaid
<02645> (8762)
also the house
<01004>_,

<07023>
thereof, and the doors
<01817>
thereof, with gold
<02091>_;
and graved
<06605> (8765)
cherubims
<03742>
on the walls
<07023>_.
And he made
<06213> (8799)
the most
<06944>
holy
<06944>
house
<01004>_,
the length
<0753>
whereof [was] according to
<06440>
the breadth
<07341>
of the house
<01004>_,
twenty
<06242>
cubits
<0520>_,
and the breadth
<07341>
thereof twenty
<06242>
cubits
<0520>_:
and he overlaid
<02645> (8762)
it with fine
<02896>
gold
<02091>_,
[amounting] to six
<08337>
hundred
<03967>
talents
<03603>_.
And the weight
<04948>
of the nails
<04548>
[was] fifty
<02572>
shekels
<08255>
of gold
<02091>_.
And he overlaid
<02645> (8765)
the upper chambers
<05944>
with gold
<02091>_.
And in the most
<06944>
holy
<06944>
house
<01004>
he made
<06213> (8799)
two
<08147>
cherubims
<03742>
of image
<06816>
work
<04639>_,
and overlaid
<06823> (8762)
them with gold
<02091>_.
{image...: or, (as some think) of moveable work}
And the wings
<03671>
of the cherubims
<03742>
[were] twenty
<06242>
cubits
<0520>
long
<0753>_:
one
<0259>
wing
<03671>
[of the one cherub was] five
<02568>

<0520>_,
reaching
<05060> (8688)
to the wall
<07023>
of the house
<01004>_:
and the other
<0312>
wing
<03671>
[was likewise] five
<02568>
cubits
<0520>_,
reaching

to the wing
<03671>
of the other
<0312>
cherub
<03742>_.
And [one] wing
<03671>
of the other
<0259>
cherub
<03742>
[was] five
<02568>
cubits
<0520>_,
reaching
<05060> (8688)
to the wall
<07023>
of the house
<01004>_:

<03671>
[was] five
<02568>
cubits
<0520>
[also], joining
<01695>
to the wing
<03671>
of the other
<0312>
cherub
<03742>_.
The wings
<03671>
of these cherubims
<03742>
spread themselves forth
<06566> (8802)
twenty
<06242>
cubits
<0520>_:
and they stood
<05975> (8802)
on their feet
<07272>_,
and their faces
<06440>
[were] inward
<01004>_.
{inward: or, toward the house}
And he made
<06213> (8799)
the vail
<06532>
[of] blue
<08504>_,

and the chapiter
<06858>
that [was] on the top
<07218>
of each of them [was] five
<02568>

<0520>_.
{high: Heb. long}
And he made
<06213> (8799)
chains
<08333>_,
[as] in the oracle
<01687>_,
and put
<05414> (8799)
[them] on the heads
<07218>
of the pillars

the pillars
<05982>
before
<06440>
the temple
<01964>_,
one
<0259>
on the right hand
<03225>_,
and the other
<0259>

<08034>
of that on the left
<08042>
