1 But Solomon{H8010} was building{H1129}{(H8804)} his own house{H1004} thirteen{H7969}{H6240} years{H8141}, and he finished{H3615}{(H8762)} all his house{H1004}.

2 He built{H1129}{(H8799)} also the house{H1004} of the forest{H3293} of Lebanon{H3844}; the length{H753} thereof was an hundred{H3967} cubits{H520}, and the breadth{H7341} thereof fifty{H2572} cubits{H520}, and the height{H6967} thereof thirty{H7970} cubits{H520}, upon four{H702} rows{H2905} of cedar{H730} pillars{H5982}, with cedar{H730} beams{H3773} upon the pillars{H5982}.

3 And it was covered{H5603}{(H8803)} with cedar{H730} above{H4605} upon the beams{H6763}, that lay on forty{H705} five{H2568} pillars{H5982}, fifteen{H6240} in a row{H2905}.

4 And there were windows{H8261} in three{H7969} rows{H2905}, and light{H4237} was against light{H4237} in three{H7969} ranks{H6471}.

5 And all the doors{H6607} and posts{H4201} were square{H7251}{(H8803)}, with the windows{H8260}: and light{H4237} was against{H4136} light{H4237} in three{H7969} ranks{H6471}.

6 And he made{H6213}{(H8804)} a porch{H197} of pillars{H5982}; the length{H753} thereof was fifty{H2572} cubits{H520}, and the breadth{H7341} thereof thirty{H7970} cubits{H520}: and the porch{H197} was before{H6440} them: and the other pillars{H5982} and the thick beam{H5646} were before them.

7 Then he made{H6213}{(H8804)} a porch{H197} for the throne{H3678} where he might judge{H8199}{(H8799)}, even the porch{H197} of judgment{H4941}: and it was covered{H5603}{(H8803)} with cedar{H730} from one side of the floor{H7172} to the other{H7172}.

8 And his house{H1004} where he dwelt{H3427}{(H8799)} had another{H312} court{H2691} within{H1004} the porch{H197}, which was of the like work{H4639}. Solomon{H8010} made{H6213}{(H8799)} also an house{H1004} for Pharaoh's{H6547} daughter{H1323}, whom he had taken{H3947}{(H8804)} to wife, like unto this porch{H197}.

9 All these were of costly{H3368} stones{H68}, according to the measures{H4060} of hewed stones{H1496}, sawed{H1641}{(H8775)} with saws{H4050}, within{H1004} and without{H2351}, even from the foundation{H4527} unto the coping{H2947}, and so on the outside{H2351} toward the great{H1419} court{H2691}.

10 And the foundation{H3245}{(H8794)} was of costly{H3368} stones{H68}, even great{H1419} stones{H68}, stones{H68} of ten{H6235} cubits{H520}, and stones{H68} of eight{H8083} cubits{H520}.

11 And above{H4605} were costly{H3368} stones{H68}, after the measures{H4060} of hewed stones{H1496}, and cedars{H730}.

12 And the great{H1419} court{H2691} round about{H5439} was with three{H7969} rows{H2905} of hewed stones{H1496}, and a row{H2905} of cedar{H730} beams{H3773}, both for the inner{H6442} court{H2691} of the house{H1004} of the LORD{H3068}, and for the porch{H197} of the house{H1004}.

13 And king{H4428} Solomon{H8010} sent{H7971}{(H8799)} and fetched{H3947}{(H8799)} Hiram{H2438} out of Tyre{H6865}.

14 He was a widow's{H802}{H490} son{H1121} of the tribe{H4294} of Naphtali{H5321}, and his father{H1} was a man{H376} of Tyre{H6876}, a worker{H2790}{(H8802)} in brass{H5178}: and he was filled{H4390}{(H8735)} with wisdom{H2451}, and understanding{H8394}, and cunning{H1847} to work{H6213}{(H8800)} all works{H4399} in brass{H5178}. And he came{H935}{(H8799)} to king{H4428} Solomon{H8010}, and wrought{H6213}{(H8799)} all his work{H4399}.

15 For he cast{H6696}{(H8799)} two{H8147} pillars{H5982} of brass{H5178}, of eighteen{H8083}{H6240} cubits{H520} high{H6967} apiece{H5982}{H259}: and a line{H2339} of twelve{H8147}{H6240} cubits{H520} did compass{H5437} either{H8145} of them about{H5437}{(H8799)}.

16 And he made{H6213}{(H8804)} two{H8147} chapiters{H3805} of molten{H3332}{(H8716)} brass{H5178}, to set{H5414}{(H8800)} upon the tops{H7218} of the pillars{H5982}: the height{H6967} of the one{H259} chapiter{H3805} was five{H2568} cubits{H520}, and the height{H6967} of the other{H8145} chapiter{H3805} was five{H2568} cubits{H520}:

17 And nets{H7638} of checker{H7639} work{H4639}, and wreaths{H1434} of chain{H8333} work{H4639}, for the chapiters{H3805} which were upon the top{H7218} of the pillars{H5982}; seven{H7651} for the one{H259} chapiter{H3805}, and seven{H7651} for the other{H8145} chapiter{H3805}.

18 And he made{H6213}{(H8799)} the pillars{H5982}, and two{H8147} rows{H2905} round about{H5439} upon the one{H259} network{H7639}, to cover{H3680}{(H8763)} the chapiters{H3805} that were upon the top{H7218}, with pomegranates{H7416}: and so did{H6213}{(H8804)} he for the other{H8145} chapiter{H3805}.

19 And the chapiters{H3805} that were upon the top{H7218} of the pillars{H5982} were of lily{H7799} work{H4639} in the porch{H197}, four{H702} cubits{H520}.

20 And the chapiters{H3805} upon the two{H8147} pillars{H5982} had pomegranates also above{H4605}, over against{H5980} the belly{H990} which was by{H5676} the network{H7639}: and the pomegranates{H7416} were two hundred{H3967} in rows{H2905} round about{H5439} upon the other{H8145} chapiter{H3805}.

21 And he set up{H6965}{(H8686)} the pillars{H5982} in the porch{H197} of the temple{H1964}: and he set up{H6965}{(H8686)} the right{H3233} pillar{H5982}, and called{H7121}{(H8799)} the name{H8034} thereof Jachin{H3199}: and he set up{H6965}{(H8686)} the left{H8042} pillar{H5982}, and called{H7121}{(H8799)} the name{H8034} thereof Boaz{H1162}.

22 And upon the top{H7218} of the pillars{H5982} was lily{H7799} work{H4639}: so was the work{H4399} of the pillars{H5982} finished{H8552}{(H8799)}.

23 And he made{H6213}{(H8799)} a molten{H3332}{(H8716)} sea{H3220}, ten{H6235} cubits{H520} from the one brim{H8193} to the other{H8193}: it was round{H5696} all about{H5439}, and his height{H6967} was five{H2568} cubits{H520}: and a line{H6957}{(H8675)}{H6961} of thirty{H7970} cubits{H520} did compass{H5437}{(H8799)} it round about{H5439}.

24 And under the brim{H8193} of it round about{H5439} there were knops{H6497} compassing{H5437}{(H8802)} it, ten{H6235} in a cubit{H520}, compassing{H5362}{(H8688)} the sea{H3220} round about{H5439}: the knops{H6497} were cast{H3333} in two{H8147} rows{H2905}, when it was cast{H3332}{(H8803)}.

25 It stood{H5975}{(H8802)} upon twelve{H8147}{H6240} oxen{H1241}, three{H7969} looking{H6437}{(H8802)} toward the north{H6828}, and three{H7969} looking{H6437}{(H8802)} toward the west{H3220}, and three{H7969} looking{H6437}{(H8802)} toward the south{H5045}, and three{H7969} looking{H6437}{(H8802)} toward the east{H4217}: and the sea{H3220} was set above{H4605} upon them, and all their hinder parts{H268} were inward{H1004}.

26 And it was an hand breadth{H2947} thick{H5672}, and the brim{H8193} thereof was wrought{H4639} like the brim{H8193} of a cup{H3563}, with flowers{H6525} of lilies{H7799}: it contained{H3557}{(H8686)} two thousand{H505} baths{H1324}.

27 And he made{H6213}{(H8799)} ten{H6235} bases{H4350} of brass{H5178}; four{H702} cubits{H520} was the length{H753} of one{H259} base{H4350}, and four{H702} cubits{H520} the breadth{H7341} thereof, and three{H7969} cubits{H520} the height{H6967} of it.

28 And the work{H4639} of the bases{H4350} was on this manner: they had borders{H4526}, and the borders{H4526} were between the ledges{H7948}:

29 And on the borders{H4526} that were between the ledges{H7948} were lions{H738}, oxen{H1241}, and cherubims{H3742}: and upon the ledges{H7948} there was a base{H3653} above{H4605}: and beneath the lions{H738} and oxen{H1241} were certain additions{H3914} made of thin{H4174} work{H4639}.

30 And every{H259} base{H4350} had four{H702} brasen{H5178} wheels{H212}, and plates{H5633} of brass{H5178}: and the four{H702} corners{H6471} thereof had undersetters{H3802}: under the laver{H3595} were undersetters{H3802} molten{H3332}{(H8803)}, at the side{H5676} of every{H376} addition{H3914}.

31 And the mouth{H6310} of it within{H1004} the chapiter{H3805} and above{H4605} was a cubit{H520}: but the mouth{H6310} thereof was round{H5696} after the work{H4639} of the base{H3653}, a cubit{H520} and an half{H2677}: and also upon the mouth{H6310} of it were gravings{H4734} with their borders{H4526}, foursquare{H7251}{(H8794)}, not round{H5696}.

32 And under{H8478} the borders{H4526} were four{H702} wheels{H212}; and the axletrees{H3027} of the wheels{H212} were joined to the base{H4350}: and the height{H6967} of a{H259} wheel{H212} was a cubit{H520} and half{H2677} a cubit{H520}.

33 And the work{H4639} of the wheels{H212} was like the work{H4639} of a chariot{H4818} wheel{H212}: their axletrees{H3027}, and their naves{H1354}, and their felloes{H2839}, and their spokes{H2840}, were all molten{H3332}{(H8716)}.

34 And there were four{H702} undersetters{H3802} to the four{H702} corners{H6438} of one{H259} base{H4350}: and the undersetters{H3802} were of the very base{H4350} itself.

35 And in the top{H7218} of the base{H4350} was there a round{H5696} compass{H5439} of half{H2677} a cubit{H520} high{H6967}: and on the top{H7218} of the base{H4350} the ledges{H3027} thereof and the borders{H4526} thereof were of the same.

36 For on the plates{H3871} of the ledges{H3027} thereof, and on the borders{H4526} thereof, he graved{H6605}{(H8762)} cherubims{H3742}, lions{H738}, and palm trees{H8561}, according to the proportion{H4626} of every one{H376}, and additions{H3914} round about{H5439}.

37 After this manner he made{H6213}{(H8804)} the ten{H6235} bases{H4350}: all of them had one{H259} casting{H4165}, one{H259} measure{H4060}, and one{H259} size{H7095}.

38 Then made{H6213}{(H8799)} he ten{H6235} lavers{H3595} of brass{H5178}: one{H259} laver{H3595} contained{H3557}{(H8686)} forty{H705} baths{H1324}: and every{H259} laver{H3595} was four{H702} cubits{H520}: and upon every one{H259} of the ten{H6235} bases{H4350} one{H259} laver{H3595}.

39 And he put{H5414}{(H8799)} five{H2568} bases{H4350} on the right{H3225} side{H3802} of the house{H1004}, and five{H2568} on the left{H8040} side{H3802} of the house{H1004}: and he set{H5414}{(H8804)} the sea{H3220} on the right{H3233} side{H3802} of the house{H1004} eastward{H6924} over against{H4136} the south{H5045}.

40 And Hiram{H2438} made{H6213}{(H8799)} the lavers{H3595}, and the shovels{H3257}, and the basons{H4219}. So Hiram{H2438} made{H3615}{(H8762)} an end of doing{H6213}{(H8800)} all the work{H4399} that he made{H6213}{(H8804)} king{H4428} Solomon{H8010} for the house{H1004} of the LORD{H3068}:

41 The two{H8147} pillars{H5982}, and the two bowls{H1543} of the chapiters{H3805} that were on the top{H7218} of the two{H8147} pillars{H5982}; and the two{H8147} networks{H7639}, to cover{H3680}{(H8763)} the two{H8147} bowls{H1543} of the chapiters{H3805} which were upon the top{H7218} of the pillars{H5982};

42 And four{H702} hundred{H3967} pomegranates{H7416} for the two{H8147} networks{H7639}, even two{H8147} rows{H2905} of pomegranates{H7416} for one{H259} network{H7639}, to cover{H3680}{(H8763)} the two{H8147} bowls{H1543} of the chapiters{H3805} that were upon{H6440} the pillars{H5982};

43 And the ten{H6235} bases{H4350}, and ten{H6235} lavers{H3595} on the bases{H4350};

44 And one{H259} sea{H3220}, and twelve{H8147}{H6240} oxen{H1241} under the sea{H3220};

45 And the pots{H5518}, and the shovels{H3257}, and the basons{H4219}: and all these vessels{H3627}, which Hiram{H2438} made{H6213}{(H8804)} to king{H4428} Solomon{H8010} for the house{H1004} of the LORD{H3068}, were of bright{H4178}{(H8794)} brass{H5178}.

46 In the plain{H3603} of Jordan{H3383} did the king{H4428} cast{H3332}{(H8804)} them, in the clay{H4568} ground{H127} between Succoth{H5523} and Zarthan{H6891}.

47 And Solomon{H8010} left{H3240}{(H8686)} all the vessels{H3627} unweighed, because they were exceeding{H3966}{H3966} many{H7230}: neither was the weight{H4948} of the brass{H5178} found out{H2713}{(H8738)}.

48 And Solomon{H8010} made{H6213}{(H8799)} all the vessels{H3627} that pertained unto the house{H1004} of the LORD{H3068}: the altar{H4196} of gold{H2091}, and the table{H7979} of gold{H2091}, whereupon the shewbread{H3899}{H6440} was,

49 And the candlesticks{H4501} of pure{H5462}{(H8803)} gold{H2091}, five{H2568} on the right{H3225} side, and five{H2568} on the left{H8040}, before{H6440} the oracle{H1687}, with the flowers{H6525}, and the lamps{H5216}, and the tongs{H4457} of gold{H2091},

50 And the bowls{H5592}, and the snuffers{H4212}, and the basons{H4219}, and the spoons{H3709}, and the censers{H4289} of pure{H5462}{(H8803)} gold{H2091}; and the hinges{H6596} of gold{H2091}, both for the doors{H1817} of the inner{H6442} house{H1004}, the most{H6944} holy{H6944} place, and for the doors{H1817} of the house{H1004}, to wit, of the temple{H1964}.

51 So was ended{H7999}{(H8799)} all the work{H4399} that king{H4428} Solomon{H8010} made{H6213}{(H8804)} for the house{H1004} of the LORD{H3068}. And Solomon{H8010} brought in{H935}{(H8686)} the things which David{H1732} his father{H1} had dedicated{H6944}; even the silver{H3701}, and the gold{H2091}, and the vessels{H3627}, did he put{H5414}{(H8804)} among the treasures{H214} of the house{H1004} of the LORD{H3068}.
