1 Solomon was building his own house thirteen years, and he finished all his house. 1 Kings 7:1WEB
2 For he built the House of the Forest of Lebanon. Its length was one hundred cubits, its width fifty cubits, and its height thirty cubits, on four rows of cedar pillars, with cedar beams on the pillars. 1 Kings 7:2WEB
3 It was covered with cedar above over the forty-five beams that were on the pillars, fifteen in a row. 1 Kings 7:3WEB
4 There were beams in three rows, and window was facing window in three ranks. 1 Kings 7:4WEB
5 All the doors and posts were made square with beams; and window was facing window in three ranks. 1 Kings 7:5WEB
6 He made the hall of pillars. Its length was fifty cubits and its width thirty cubits, with a porch before them, and pillars and a threshold before them. 1 Kings 7:6WEB
7 He made the porch of the throne where he was to judge, even the porch of judgment; and it was covered with cedar from floor to floor. 1 Kings 7:7WEB
8 His house where he was to dwell, the other court within the porch, was of the same construction. He made also a house for Pharaoh’s daughter (whom Solomon had taken as wife), like this porch. 1 Kings 7:8WEB
9 All these were of costly stones, even of stone cut according to measure, sawed with saws, inside and outside, even from the foundation to the coping, and so on the outside to the great court. 1 Kings 7:9WEB
10 The foundation was of costly stones, even great stones, stones of ten cubits and stones of eight cubits. 1 Kings 7:10WEB
11 Above were costly stones, even cut stone, according to measure, and cedar wood. 1 Kings 7:11WEB
12 The great court around had three courses of cut stone with a course of cedar beams, like the inner court of YHWH’s house and the porch of the house. 1 Kings 7:12WEB
13 King Solomon sent and brought Hiram out of Tyre. 1 Kings 7:13WEB
14 He was the son of a widow of the tribe of Naphtali, and his father was a man of Tyre, a worker in bronze; and he was filled with wisdom and understanding and skill to work all works in bronze. He came to king Solomon and performed all his work. 1 Kings 7:14WEB
15 For he fashioned the two pillars of bronze, eighteen cubits high apiece; and a line of twelve cubits encircled either of them. 1 Kings 7:15WEB
16 He made two capitals of molten bronze to set on the tops of the pillars. The height of the one capital was five cubits, and the height of the other capital was five cubits. 1 Kings 7:16WEB
17 There were nets of checker work and wreaths of chain work for the capitals which were on the top of the pillars: seven for the one capital, and seven for the other capital. 1 Kings 7:17WEB
18 So he made the pillars; and there were two rows of pomegranates around the one network, to cover the capitals that were on the top of the pillars; and he did so for the other capital. 1 Kings 7:18WEB
19 The capitals that were on the top of the pillars in the porch were of lily work, four cubits. 1 Kings 7:19WEB
20 There were capitals above also on the two pillars, close by the belly which was beside the network. There were two hundred pomegranates in rows around the other capital. 1 Kings 7:20WEB
21 He set up the pillars at the porch of the temple. He set up the right pillar and called its name Jachin; and he set up the left pillar and called its name Boaz. 1 Kings 7:21WEB
22 On the tops of the pillars was lily work. So the work of the pillars was finished. 1 Kings 7:22WEB
23 He made the molten sea ten cubits from brim to brim, round in shape. Its height was five cubits; and a line of thirty cubits encircled it. 1 Kings 7:23WEB
24 Under its brim around there were buds which encircled it for ten cubits, encircling the sea. The buds were in two rows, cast when it was cast. 1 Kings 7:24WEB
25 It stood on twelve oxen, three looking toward the north, and three looking toward the west, and three looking toward the south, and three looking toward the east; and the sea was set on them above, and all their hindquarters were inward. 1 Kings 7:25WEB
26 It was a hand width thick. Its brim was worked like the brim of a cup, like the flower of a lily. It held two thousand baths. 1 Kings 7:26WEB
27 He made the ten bases of bronze. The length of one base was four cubits, four cubits its width, and three cubits its height. 1 Kings 7:27WEB
28 The work of the bases was like this: they had panels; and there were panels between the ledges; 1 Kings 7:28WEB
29 and on the panels that were between the ledges were lions, oxen, and cherubim; and on the ledges there was a pedestal above; and beneath the lions and oxen were wreaths of hanging work. 1 Kings 7:29WEB
30 Every base had four bronze wheels and axles of bronze; and its four feet had supports. The supports were cast beneath the basin, with wreaths at the side of each. 1 Kings 7:30WEB
31 Its opening within the capital and above was a cubit. Its opening was round like the work of a pedestal, a cubit and a half; and also on its opening were engravings, and their panels were square, not round. 1 Kings 7:31WEB
32 The four wheels were underneath the panels; and the axles of the wheels were in the base. The height of a wheel was a cubit and half a cubit. 1 Kings 7:32WEB
33 The work of the wheels was like the work of a chariot wheel. Their axles, their rims, their spokes, and their hubs were all of cast metal. 1 Kings 7:33WEB
34 There were four supports at the four corners of each base. Its supports were of the base itself. 1 Kings 7:34WEB
35 In the top of the base there was a round band half a cubit high; and on the top of the base its supports and its panels were the same. 1 Kings 7:35WEB
36 On the plates of its supports and on its panels, he engraved cherubim, lions, and palm trees, each in its space, with wreaths all around. 1 Kings 7:36WEB
37 He made the ten bases in this way: all of them had one casting, one measure, and one form. 1 Kings 7:37WEB
38 He made ten basins of bronze. One basin contained forty baths. Every basin measured four cubits. One basin was on every one of the ten bases. 1 Kings 7:38WEB
39 He set the bases, five on the right side of the house and five on the left side of the house. He set the sea on the right side of the house eastward and toward the south. 1 Kings 7:39WEB
40 Hiram made the pots, the shovels, and the basins. So Hiram finished doing all the work that he worked for king Solomon in YHWH’s house: 1 Kings 7:40WEB
41 the two pillars; the two bowls of the capitals that were on the top of the pillars; the two networks to cover the two bowls of the capitals that were on the top of the pillars; 1 Kings 7:41WEB
42 the four hundred pomegranates for the two networks; two rows of pomegranates for each network, to cover the two bowls of the capitals that were on the pillars; 1 Kings 7:42WEB
43 the ten bases; the ten basins on the bases; 1 Kings 7:43WEB
44 the one sea; the twelve oxen under the sea; 1 Kings 7:44WEB
45 the pots; the shovels; and the basins. All of these vessels, which Hiram made for king Solomon in YHWH’s house, were of burnished bronze. 1 Kings 7:45WEB
46 The king cast them in the plain of the Jordan, in the clay ground between Succoth and Zarethan. 1 Kings 7:46WEB
47 Solomon left all the vessels unweighed, because there were so many of them. The weight of the bronze could not be determined. 1 Kings 7:47WEB
48 Solomon made all the vessels that were in YHWH’s house: the golden altar and the table that the show bread was on, of gold; 1 Kings 7:48WEB
49 and the lamp stands, five on the right side and five on the left, in front of the inner sanctuary, of pure gold; and the flowers, the lamps, and the tongs, of gold; 1 Kings 7:49WEB
50 the cups, the snuffers, the basins, the spoons, and the fire pans, of pure gold; and the hinges, both for the doors of the inner house, the most holy place, and for the doors of the house, of the temple, of gold. 1 Kings 7:50WEB
51 Thus all the work that king Solomon did in YHWH’s house was finished. Solomon brought in the things which David his father had dedicated—the silver, the gold, and the vessels—and put them in the treasuries of YHWH’s house. 1 Kings 7:51WEB
