²⁵ And the other cherub was ten cubits: both the cherubim were of one measure and one form.

²⁶ The height of the one cherub was ten cubits, and so was it of the other cherub.

²⁷ And he set the cherubim within the inner house; and the wings of the cherubim were stretched forth, 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.

²⁵ The second cherub also was ten cubits: and the measure, and the work was the same in both the cherubims:

²⁶ That is to say, one cherub was ten cubits high, and in like manner the other cherub.

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 were folding, and the two leaves of the other door were folding.

³⁵ And he carved thereon cherubims and palm trees and open flowers: and covered them with gold fitted upon the carved work.

³⁶ And he built the inner court with three rows of hewed stone, and a row of cedar beams.

²⁴ And five cubits was the one wing of the cherub, and five cubits the other wing of the cherub: there were ten cubits from the uttermost part of the one wing unto the uttermost part of the other.

²⁵ And the other cherub was also ten cubits: both the cherubim were of one measure and one form.

²⁶ The height of the one cherub was ten cubits, and so that of the other cherub.

²⁷ And he set the cherubim within the innermost part of the house: and they spread forth the wings of the cherubim, 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 toward the middle of the house touched one another.

²⁸ And he overlaid the cherubim with gold.

²⁹ And on all the wall of the house round about he carved figures of cherubim and palm-trees and opening flowers, in the debir and in the temple.

³⁰ And the floor of the house he overlaid with gold for the debir and for the temple.

³¹ And for the entrance of the debir he made doors of oleaster-wood: the lintel with the side-posts forming five sides.

³² And also upon the two doors of oleaster-wood he carved figures of cherubim and palm-trees and opening flowers, and overlaid them with gold, and spread the gold, by beating, upon the cherubim, and upon the palm-trees.

³³ So also made he for the entrance of the temple door-posts of oleaster-wood in shape of a square;

³⁵ And he carved thereon cherubim, and palm-trees and opening flowers: and he overlaid them with gold fitting upon the carved work.
