1 Kings 6:15-36

¹⁵And built the walles of the house within, with boards of cedar tree from the pauement of the house vnto the walles of the sieling, and within he couered them with wood, and couered the floore of the house with planks of firre.

¹⁶And he built twentie cubites in the sides of the house with boards of cedar, from the floore to the walles, and he prepared a place within it for the oracle, euen the most holy place.

¹⁷But the house, that is, the Temple before it, was fourtie cubites long.

¹⁸And the cedar of the house within was carued with knops, and grauen with floures: all was cedar, so that no stone was seene.

¹⁹Also he prepared the place of the oracle in the mids of the house within, to set the Arke of the couenant of the Lord there.

²⁰And the place of the oracle within was twentie cubites long, and twentie cubites broad, and twentie cubites hie, and hee couered it with pure golde, and couered the altar with cedar.

²¹So Salomon couered the house within with pure golde: and he shut the place of the oracle with chaines of gold, and couered it with golde.

²²And he ouerlayde all the house with gold, vntill all the house was made perfite. also he couered the whole altar, that was before the oracle, with golde.

²³And within the oracle he made two Cherubims of oliue tree, ten cubites hie.

²⁴The wing also of the one Cherub was fiue cubites, and the wing of the other Cherub was fiue cubites: from the vttermost part of one of his wings vnto the vttermost part of the other of his wings, were ten cubites.

²⁵Also the other Cherub was of ten cubites: both the Cherubims were of one measure and one sise.

²⁶For the height of the one Cherub was ten cubits, and so was the other Cherub.

²⁷And he put the Cherubims within the inner house, and the Cherubims stretched out their wings, so that the wing of the one touched the one wall, and the wing of the other Cherub touched the other wall: and their other wings touched one another in the middes of the house.

²⁸And he ouerlaied the Cherubims with golde.

²⁹And he carued all the walles of the house round about with grauen figures of Cherubims and of Palmetrees, and grauen flowres within and without.

³⁰And the floore of the house hee couered with golde within and without.

³¹And in the entring of the oracle he made two doores of oliue tree: and the vpper post and side postes were fiue square.

³²The two doores also were of oliue tree, and he graued them with grauing of Cherubims and palme trees, and grauen floures, and couered them with golde, and layed thin golde vpon the Cherubims and vpon the palme trees.

³³And so made he for the doore of the Temple, postes of oliue tree foure square.

³⁴But the two doores were of firre tree, the two sides of the one doore were round, and the two sides of the other doore were round.

³⁵And he graued Cherubims, and palme trees, and carued floures and couered the carued worke with golde, finely wrought.

³⁶And hee built the court within with three rowes of hewed stone, and one rowe of beames of cedar.
