1Now Solomon<8010> was building<1129> his own house<1004> thirteen<7969><6240> years<8141>, and he finished<3615> all<3605> his house<1004>.
2He built<1129> the house<1004> of the forest<3293> of Lebanon<3844>; its length<753> was 100 <3967> cubits<520> and its width<7341> 50 <2572> cubits<520> and its height<6967> 30 <7970> cubits<520>, on four<702> rows<2905> of cedar<730> pillars<5982> with cedar<730> beams<3772> on the pillars<5982>.
3It was paneled<5603> with cedar<730> above<4605><5921> the side<6763> chambers<6763> which<834> were on the 45 <705><2568> pillars<5982>, 15 <2568><6240> in each row<2905>.
4There were artistic window frames<8261> in three<7969> rows<2905>, and window<4237> was opposite<413> window<4237> in three<7969> ranks<6471>.
5All<3605> the doorways<6607> and doorposts<4201> had squared<7251> artistic frames<8260>, and window<4237> was opposite<4136><413> window<4237> in three<7969> ranks<6471>.
6Then he made<6213> the hall<197> of pillars<5982>; its length<753> was 50 <2572> cubits<520> and its width<7341> 30 <7970> cubits<520>, and a porch<197> was in front<6440> of them and pillars<5982> and a threshold<5646> in front<6440> of them.
7He made<6213> the hall<197> of the throne<3678> where<834><8033> he was to judge<8199>, the hall<197> of judgment<4941>, and it was paneled<5603> with cedar<730> from floor<7172> to floor<7172>.
8His house<1004> where<834><8033> he was to live<3427>, the other<312> court<2691> inward<4480><1004> from the hall<197>, was of the same<2088> workmanship<4639>. He also made<6213> a house<1004> like this<2088> hall<197> for Pharaoh's<6547> daughter<1323>, whom<834> Solomon<8010> had married<3947>.
9All<3605> these<428> were of costly<3368> stones<68>, of stone<1496> cut<1496> according to measure<4060>, sawed<1641> with saws<4050>, inside<4480><1004> and outside<4480><2351>; even from the foundation<4527> to the coping<2947>, and so on the outside<2351> to the great<1419> court<2691>.
10The foundation<3245> was of costly<3368> stones<68>, even large<1419> stones<68>, stones<68> of ten<6235> cubits<520> and stones<68> of eight<8083> cubits<520>.
11And above<4480><4605> were costly<3368> stones<68>, stone<1496> cut<1496> according to measure<4060>, and cedar<730>.
12So the great<1419> court<2691> all<5439> around<5439> had three<7969> rows<2905> of cut<1496> stone<1496> and a row<2905> of cedar<730> beams<3772> even as the inner<6442> court<2691> of the house<1004> of the LORD<3068>, and the porch<197> of the house<1004>.
13Now King<4428> Solomon<8010> sent<7971> and brought<3947> Hiram<2438> from Tyre<6865>.
14He was a widow's<490> son<1121> from the tribe<4294> of Naphtali<5321>, and his father<1> was a man<376> of Tyre<6876>, a worker<2790> in bronze<5178>; and he was filled<4390> with wisdom<2451> and understanding<8394> and skill<1847> for doing<6213> any<3605> work<4399> in bronze<5178>. So he came<935> to King<4428> Solomon<8010> and performed<6213> all<3605> his work<4399>.
15He fashioned<6696> the two<8147> pillars<5982> of bronze<5178>; eighteen<8083><6240> cubits<520> was the height<6967> of one<259> pillar<5982>, and a line<2339> of twelve<8147><6240> cubits<520> measured<5437> the circumference<5437> of both<8147>.
16He also made<6213> two<8147> capitals<3805> of molten<3332> bronze<5178> to set<5414> on the tops<7218> of the pillars<5982>; the height<6967> of the one<259> capital<3805> was five<2568> cubits<520> and the height<6967> of the other<8145> capital<3805> was five<2568> cubits<520>.
17There were nets<7639> of network<7639> and twisted<1434> threads<1434> of chainwork<4639><8333> for the capitals<3805> which<834> were on the top<7218> of the pillars<5982>; seven<7651> for the one<259> capital<3805> and seven<7651> for the other<8145> capital<3805>.
18So he made<6213> the pillars<5982>, and two<8147> rows<2905> around<5439> on the one<259> network<7639> to cover<3680> the capitals<3805> which<834> were on the top<7218> of the pomegranates<7416>; and so<3651> he did<6213> for the other<8145> capital<3805>.
19The capitals<3805> which<834> were on the top<7218> of the pillars<5982> in the porch<197> were of lily<7799> design<4639>, four<702> cubits<520>.
20There were capitals<3805> on the two<8147> pillars<5982>, even<1571> above<4480><4605> and close<4480><5980> to the rounded<990> projection<990> which<834> was beside<5676> the network<7639>; and the pomegranates<7416> numbered two hundred<3967> in rows<2905> around<5439> both<8145> capitals<3805>.
21Thus he set<6965> up the pillars<5982> at the porch<197> of the nave<1964>; and he set<6965> up the right<3233> pillar<5982> and named<7121><8034> it Jachin<3199>, and he set<6965> up the left<8042> pillar<5982> and named<7121><8034> it Boaz<1162>.
22On the top<7218> of the pillars<5982> was lily<7799> design<4639>. So the work<4399> of the pillars<5982> was finished<8552>.
23Now he made<6213> the sea<3220> of cast<3332> metal ten<6235> cubits<520> from brim<8193> to brim<8193>, circular<5696> in form<5439>, and its height<6967> was five<2568> cubits<520>, and thirty<7970> cubits<520> in circumference<6961><5437><5439>.
24Under<8478> its brim<8193> gourds<6497> went around<5439> encircling<5437> it ten<6235> to a cubit<520>, completely<5439> surrounding<5362> the sea<3220>; the gourds<6497> were in two<8147> rows<2905>, cast<3332> with the rest<3333>.
25It stood<5975> on twelve<8147><6240> oxen<1241>, three<7969> facing<6437> north<6828>, three<7969> facing<6437> west<3220>, three<7969> facing<6437> south<5045>, and three<7969> facing<6437> east<4217>; and the sea<3220> was set on top<4605> of them, and all<3605> their rear<268> parts<268> turned inward<1004>.
26It was a handbreadth<2947> thick<5672>, and its brim<8193> was made<4639> like the brim<8193> of a cup<3563>, as a lily<7799> blossom<6525>; it could hold<3557> two thousand<505> baths<1324>.
27Then he made<6213> the ten<6235> stands<4350> of bronze<5178>; the length<753> of each<259> stand<4350> was four<702> cubits<520> and its width<7341> four<702> cubits<520> and its height<6967> three<7969> cubits<520>.
28This<2088> was the design<4639> of the stands<4350>: they had borders<4526>, even borders<4526> between<996> the frames<7948>,
29and on the borders<4526> which<834> were between<996> the frames<7948> were lions<738>, oxen<1241> and cherubim<3742>; and on the frames<7948> there was a pedestal<3653> above<4480><4605>, and beneath<4480><8478> the lions<738> and oxen<1241> were wreaths<3914> of hanging<4174> work<4639>.
30Now each<259> stand<4350> had four<702> bronze<5178> wheels<212> with bronze<5178> axles<5633>, and its four<702> feet<6471> had supports<3802>; beneath<4480><8478> the basin<3595> were cast<3332> supports<3802> with wreaths<3914> at each<376> side<5676>.
31Its opening<6310> inside<4480><1004> the crown<3805> at the top<4605> was a cubit<520>, and its opening<6310> was round<5696> like the design<4639> of a pedestal<3653>, a cubit<520> and a half<2677>; and also<1571> on its opening<6310> there were engravings<4734>, and their borders<4526> were square<7251>, not round<5696>.
32The four<702> wheels<212> were underneath<8478> the borders<4526>, and the axles<3027> of the wheels<212> were on the stand<4350>. And the height<6967> of a wheel<212> was a cubit<520> and a half<2677>.
33The workmanship<4639> of the wheels<212> was like the workmanship<4639> of a chariot<4818> wheel<212>. Their axles<3027>, their rims<1354>, their spokes<2839>, and their hubs<2840> were all<3605> cast<3332>.
34Now there were four<702> supports<3802> at the four<702> corners<6438> of each<259> stand<4350>; its supports<3802> were part of the stand<4350> itself.
35On the top<7218> of the stand<4350> there was a circular<5696> form<5439> half<2677> a cubit<520> high<6967>, and on the top<7218> of the stand<4350> its stays<3027> and its borders<4526> were part<4480> of it.
36He engraved<6605> on the plates<3871> of its stays<3027> and on its borders<4526>, cherubim<3742>, lions<738> and palm<8561> trees<8561>, according to the clear<4626> space<4626> on each<376>, with wreaths<3914> all around<5439>.
37He made<6213> the ten<6235> stands<4350> like this<2088>: all<3605> of them had one<259> casting<4165>, one<259> measure<4060> and one<259> form<7095>.
38He made<6213> ten<6235> basins<3595> of bronze<5178>, one<259> basin<3595> held<3557> forty<705> baths<1324>; each<259> basin<3595> was four<702> cubits<520>, and on each<259> of the ten<6235> stands<4350> was one<259> basin<3595>.
39Then he set<5414> the stands<4350>, five<2568> on the right<3225> side<3802> of the house<1004> and five<2568> on the left<8040> side<3802> of the house<1004>; and he set<5414> the sea<3220> of cast metal on the right<3233> side<3802> of the house<1004> eastward<6924> toward<4480><4136> the south<5045>.
40Now Hiram<2438> made<6213> the basins<3595> and the shovels<3257> and the bowls<4219>. So Hiram<2438> finished<3615> doing<6213> all<3605> the work<4399> which<834> he performed<6213> for King<4428> Solomon<8010> in the house<1004> of the LORD<3068>:
41the two<8147> pillars<5982> and the two bowls<1543> of the capitals<3805> which<834> were on the top<7218> of the two<8147> pillars<5982>, and the two<8147> networks<7639> to cover<3680> the two<8147> bowls<1543> of the capitals<3805> which<834> were on the top<7218> of the pillars<5982>;
42and the four<702> hundred<3967> pomegranates<7416> for the two<8147> networks<7639>, two<8147> rows<2905> of pomegranates<7416> for each<259> network<7639> to cover<3680> the two<8147> bowls<1543> of the capitals<3805> which<834> were on the tops<6440> of the pillars<5982>;
43and the ten<6235> stands<4350> with the ten<6235> basins<3595> on the stands<4350>;
44and the one<259> sea<3220> and the twelve<8147><6240> oxen<1241> under<8478> the sea<3220>;
45and the pails<5518> and the shovels<3257> and the bowls<4219>; even all<3605> these<428> utensils<3627> which<834> Hiram<2438> made<6213> for King<4428> Solomon<8010> in the house<1004> of the LORD<3068> were of polished<4803> bronze<5178>.
46In the plain<3603> of the Jordan<3383> the king<4428> cast<3332> them, in the clay<4568> ground<127> between<996> Succoth<5523> and Zarethan<6891>.
47Solomon<8010> left<5117> all<3605> the utensils<3627> unweighed, because<4480> they were too<3966> many<7230>; the weight<4948> of the bronze<5178> could not be ascertained<2713>.
48Solomon<8010> made<6213> all<3605> the furniture<3627> which<834> was in the house<1004> of the LORD<3068>: the golden<2091> altar<4196> and the golden<2091> table<7979> on which<834> was the bread<3899> of the Presence<6440>;
49and the lampstands<4501>, five<2568> on the right<3225> side<3225> and five<2568> on the left<8040>, in front<6440> of the inner<1687> sanctuary<1687>, of pure<5462> gold<2091>; and the flowers<6525> and the lamps<5216> and the tongs<4457>, of gold<2091>;
50and the cups<5592> and the snuffers<4212> and the bowls<4219> and the spoons<3709> and the firepans<4289>, of pure<5462> gold<2091>; and the hinges<6596> both for the doors<1817> of the inner<6442> house<1004>, the most<6944> holy<6944> place<6944>, and for the doors<1817> of the house<1004>, that is, of the nave<1964>, of gold<2091>.
51Thus all<3605> the work<4399> that King<4428> Solomon<8010> performed<6213> in the house<1004> of the LORD<3068> was finished<7999>. And Solomon<8010> brought<935> in the things<6944> dedicated<6944> by his father<1> David<1732>, the silver<3701> and the gold<2091> and the utensils<3627>, and he put<5414> them in the treasuries<214> of the house<1004> of the LORD<3068>.
