Then SolomonH8010 beganH2490 to buildH1129 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 at JerusalemH3389 in mountH2022 MoriahH4179, where the LORD appearedH7200 unto DavidH1732 his fatherH1, in the placeH4725 that DavidH1732 had preparedH3559 in the threshingfloorH1637 of OrnanH771 the JebusiteH2983. {where…: or, which was seen of David his father}
And he beganH2490 to buildH1129 in the secondH8145 day of the secondH8145 monthH2320, in the fourthH702 yearH8141 of his reignH4438.
Now these are the things wherein SolomonH8010 was instructedH3245 for the buildingH1129 of the houseH1004 of GodH430. The lengthH753 by cubitsH520 after the firstH7223 measureH4060 was threescoreH8346 cubitsH520, and the breadthH7341 twentyH6242 cubitsH520. {instructed: Heb. founded}
And the porchH197 that was in the frontH6440 of the house, the lengthH753 of it was according to the breadthH7341 of the houseH1004, twentyH6242 cubitsH520, and the heightH1363 was an hundredH3967 and twentyH6242: and he overlaidH6823 it withinH6441 with pureH2889 goldH2091.
And the greaterH1419 houseH1004 he cieledH2645 with firH1265 treeH6086, which he overlaidH2645 with fineH2896 goldH2091, and setH5927 thereon palm treesH8561 and chainsH8333.
And he garnishedH6823 the houseH1004 with preciousH3368 stonesH68 for beautyH8597: and the goldH2091 was goldH2091 of ParvaimH6516. {garnished: Heb. covered}
He overlaidH2645 also the houseH1004, the beamsH6982, the postsH5592, and the wallsH7023 thereof, and the doorsH1817 thereof, with goldH2091; and gravedH6605 cherubimsH3742 on the wallsH7023.
And he madeH6213 the mostH6944 holyH6944 houseH1004, the lengthH753 whereof was according toH6440 the breadthH7341 of the houseH1004, twentyH6242 cubitsH520, and the breadthH7341 thereof twentyH6242 cubitsH520: and he overlaidH2645 it with fineH2896 goldH2091, amounting to sixH8337 hundredH3967 talentsH3603.
And the weightH4948 of the nailsH4548 was fiftyH2572 shekelsH8255 of goldH2091. And he overlaidH2645 the upper chambersH5944 with goldH2091.
And in the mostH6944 holyH6944 houseH1004 he madeH6213 twoH8147 cherubimsH3742 of imageH6816 workH4639, and overlaidH6823 them with goldH2091. {image…: or, (as some think) of moveable work}
And the wingsH3671 of the cherubimsH3742 were twentyH6242 cubitsH520 longH753: oneH259 wingH3671 of the one cherub was fiveH2568 cubitsH520, reachingH5060 to the wallH7023 of the houseH1004: and the otherH312 wingH3671 was likewise fiveH2568 cubitsH520, reachingH5060 to the wingH3671 of the otherH312 cherubH3742.
And one wingH3671 of the otherH259 cherubH3742 was fiveH2568 cubitsH520, reachingH5060 to the wallH7023 of the houseH1004: and the otherH312 wingH3671 was fiveH2568 cubitsH520 also, joiningH1695 to the wingH3671 of the otherH312 cherubH3742.
The wingsH3671 of these cherubimsH3742 spread themselves forthH6566 twentyH6242 cubitsH520: and they stoodH5975 on their feetH7272, and their facesH6440 were inwardH1004. {inward: or, toward the house}
And he madeH6213 the vailH6532 of blueH8504, and purpleH713, and crimsonH3758, and fine linenH948, and wroughtH5927 cherubimsH3742 thereon. {wrought: Heb. caused to ascend}
Also he madeH6213 beforeH6440 the houseH1004 twoH8147 pillarsH5982 of thirtyH7970 and fiveH2568 cubitsH520 highH753, and the chapiterH6858 that was on the topH7218 of each of them was fiveH2568 cubitsH520. {high: Heb. long}
And he madeH6213 chainsH8333, as in the oracleH1687, and putH5414 them on the headsH7218 of the pillarsH5982; and madeH6213 an hundredH3967 pomegranatesH7416, and putH5414 them on the chainsH8333.
And he reared upH6965 the pillarsH5982 beforeH6440 the templeH1964, oneH259 on the right handH3225, and the otherH259 on the leftH8040; and calledH7121 the nameH8034 of that on the right handH3233+H3227 JachinH3199, and the nameH8034 of that on the leftH8042 BoazH1162. {Jachin: that is, He shall establish} {Boaz: that is, In it is strength}
