1 And Solomon commenced to build the House of the Lord in Jerusalem on Mount Moriah, where He had appeared to his father David, which he had prepared in David’s place, in the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
2 And he commenced to build in the second month, in the second, in the fourth year of his reign.
3 And [with] these Solomon was counseled to build the House of God; the length in cubits, in the first measure was sixty cubits, and the breadth was twenty cubits.
4 And the vestibule, the length of which was according to the breadth of the House, was twenty cubits, and the height was one hundred and twenty, and he overlaid it from within with pure gold.
5 And the greater House he overlaid with juniper wood, and he overlaid it with fine gold, and he wrought upon it palm trees and chains.
6 And he overlaid the House with precious stone for glory, and the gold was the gold of Parvaim.
7 And he overlaid the House; the beams, the sideposts and its walls and its doors with gold, and he engraved cherubim on the walls.
8 And he made the House of the Holy of Holies, its length on the face of the breadth of the House, twenty cubits, and its breadth twenty cubits; and he overlaid it with fine gold of six hundred talents.
9 And the weight of the nails in shekels, fifty of gold, and the upper stories he overlaid with gold.
10 And he made in the Holy of Holies two cherubim, with the appearance of children, and they overlaid them with gold.
11 And the wings of the cherubim-their length was twenty cubits, the wing of the one was five cubits, reaching the wall of the House, and the other wing was five cubits, reaching the wing of the other cherub.
12 And the wing of the one cherub was five cubits, reaching the wall of the House, and the other wing was five cubits, cleaving to the wing of the other cherub.
13 The wings of these cherubim were spread out twenty cubits, and they were standing on their feet with their faces to the House.
14 And he made the dividing curtain of blue, purple, and crimson yarn, and fine linen, and he wrought cherubim into it.
15 And he made before the House two pillars, thirty-five cubits long, and the capital that was on the top of each one was five cubits.
16 And he made chains in the Debir, and he placed [them] atop the pillars, and he made a hundred pomegranates and placed them in the chains.
17 And he erected the pillars before the Heichal, one from the right and one from the left, and he named the right one Jachin and the left one Boaz.
