1 Kings 6:5 And against the wall of the house he built chambers ㆍ round about, against the walls of the house round about, both of the temple and of the oracle: and he made chambers round about:
1 Kings 6:6 The nethermost chamber ㆍ was five cubits broad, and the middle was six cubits broad, and the third was seven cubits broad: for without in the wall of the house he made narrowed rests round about, that the beams should not be fastened in the walls of the house.
1 Kings 6:7 And the house, when it was in building, was built of stone made ready before it was brought thither: so that there was neither hammer nor ax nor any tool of iron heard in the house, while it was in building.

1 Kings 6:15 And he built the walls of the house within with boards of cedar, both the floor of the house, and the walls of the ceiling: and he covered them on the inside with wood, and covered the floor of the house with planks of fir.
1 Kings 6:16 And he built twenty cubits on the sides of the house, both the floor and the walls with boards of cedar: he even built them for it within, even for the oracle, even for the most holy place.
1 Kings 6:17 And the house, that is, the temple before it, was forty cubits long.
1 Kings 6:18 And the cedar of the house within was carved with knops and open flowers: all was cedar; there was no stone seen.
1 Kings 6:19 And the oracle he prepared in the house within, to set there the ark of the covenant of the LORD.
1 Kings 6:20 And the oracle in the forepart was twenty cubits in length, and twenty cubits in breadth, and twenty cubits in the height thereof: and he overlaid it with pure gold; and so covered the altar which was of cedar.
1 Kings 6:21 So Solomon overlaid the house within with pure gold: and he made a partition by the chains ㆍ of gold before the oracle; and he overlaid it with gold.
1 Kings 6:22 And the whole house he overlaid with gold, until he had finished all the house: also the whole altar that was by the oracle he overlaid with gold.
1 Kings 6:23 And within the oracle he made two cherubims of olive tree, each ten cubits high.
1 Kings 6:24 And five cubits was the one wing of the cherub, and five cubits the other wing of the cherub: from the uttermost part of the one wing unto the uttermost part of the other were ten cubits.
1 Kings 6:25 And the other cherub was ten cubits: both the cherubims were of one measure and one size.
