chamber
was
in the right side of the house: and they went up with winding stairs into the middle
chamber,
and out of the middle into the third.
9
So he built the house, and finished it; and covered
the house with beams and boards of cedar.
10
And
then
he built chambers against all the house, five
cubits high: and they rested on the house
with
timber of cedar.
11
And the word of the L
ORD
came to Solomon, saying,
12
Concerning
this house which thou art
in building, if thou wilt walk in my statutes, and execute my judgments, and keep all my
commandments to walk in them; then will I perform my word with thee, which I spake unto David
thy father:
13
And I will dwell among the children of Israel, and will not forsake my people Israel.
14
So Solomon built the house, and finished it.
15
And he built the walls of the house within with
boards of cedar, both the floor of the house, and the walls of the cieling:
and
he covered
them
on
the inside with wood, and covered the floor of the house with planks of fir.
16
And he built twenty
cubits on the sides of the house, both the floor and the walls with boards of cedar: he even built
them
for it within,
even
for the oracle,
even
for the most holy
place.
17
And the house, that
is,
the
temple before it, was forty cubits
long.
18
And the cedar of the house within
was
carved with knops
and open flowers: all
was
cedar; there was no stone seen.
19
And the oracle he prepared in the house
within, to set there the ark of the covenant of the L
ORD
.
20
And the oracle in the forepart
was
twenty
cubits in length, and twenty cubits in breadth, and twenty cubits in the height thereof: and he overlaid
it with pure gold; and so covered the altar
which was of
cedar.
21
So Solomon overlaid the house
within with pure gold: and he made a partition by the chains of gold before the oracle; and he
overlaid it with gold.
22
And the whole house he overlaid with gold, until he had finished all the
house: also the whole altar that
was
by the oracle he overlaid with gold.
23
And within the oracle he made two cherubims
of
olive tree,
each
ten cubits high.
24
And five
cubits
was
the one wing of the cherub, and five cubits the other wing of the cherub: from the
uttermost part of the one wing unto the uttermost part of the other
were
ten cubits.
25
And the other
cherub
was
ten cubits: both the cherubims
were
of one measure and one size.
26
The height of the
one cherub
was
ten cubits, and so
was it
of the other cherub.
27
And he set the cherubims within
the inner house: and they stretched forth the wings of the cherubims, so that the wing of the one
touched the
one
wall, and the wing of the other cherub touched the other wall; and their wings
touched one another in the midst of the house.
28
And he overlaid the cherubims with gold.
29
And
he carved all the walls of the house round about with carved figures of cherubims and palm trees
and open flowers, within and without.
30
And the floor of the house he overlaid with gold, within
and without.
31
And for the entering of the oracle he made doors
of
olive tree: the lintel
and
side posts
were
a fifth part
of the wall.
32
The two doors also
were of
olive tree; and he carved upon them carvings
of cherubims and palm trees and open flowers, and overlaid
them
with gold, and spread gold upon
the cherubims, and upon the palm trees.
33
So also made he for the door of the temple posts of olive
tree, a fourth part
of the wall.
34
And the two doors
were of
fir tree: the two leaves of the one door
