And Solomon
<08010>
determined
<0559> (8799)
to build
<01129> (8800)
an house
<01004>
for the name
<08034>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and an house
<01004>
for his kingdom
<04438>_.
And Solomon
<08010>
told out
<05608> (8799)
threescore and ten
<07657>
thousand
<0505>
men
<0376>
to bear burdens
<05449>_,
and fourscore
<08084>
thousand
<0505> <0376>
to hew
<02672> (8802)
in the mountain
<02022>_,
and three
<07969>
thousand
<0505>
and six
<08337>
hundred
<03967>
to oversee
<05329> (8764)
them.
And Solomon
<08010>
sent
<07971> (8799)
to Huram
<02361>
the king
<04428>
of Tyre
<06865>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
As thou didst deal
<06213> (8804)
with David
<01732>
my father
<01>_,
and didst send
<07971> (8799)
him cedars
<0730>
to build
<01129> (8800)
him an house
<01004>
to dwell
<03427> (8800)
therein, [even so deal with me]. {Huram: or, Hiram}
Behold, I build
<01129> (8802)
an house
<01004>
to the name
<08034>
of the LORD
<03068>
my God
<0430>_,
to dedicate
<06942> (8687)
[it] to him, [and] to burn
<06999> (8687)
before
<06440>
him sweet
<05561>
incense
<07004>_,
and for the continual
<08548>
shewbread
<04635>_,
and for the burnt offerings
<05930>
morning
<01242>
and evening
<06153>_,
on the sabbaths
<07676>_,
and on the new moons
<02320>_,
and on the solemn feasts
<04150>
of the LORD
<03068>
our God
<0430>_.
This [is an ordinance] for ever
<05769>
to Israel
<03478>_.
{sweet...: Heb. incense of spices}
And the house
<01004>
which I build
<01129> (8802)
[is] great
<01419>_:
for great
<01419>
[is] our God
<0430>
above all gods
<0430>_.
But who is able
<06113> (8799) <03581>
to build
<01129> (8800)
him an house
<01004>_,
seeing the heaven
<08064>
and heaven
<08064>
of heavens
<08064>
cannot contain
<03557> (8770)
him? who [am] I then, that I should build
<01129> (8799)
him an house
<01004>_,
save only
<0518>
to burn sacrifice
<06999> (8687)
before
<06440>
him? {is able: Heb. hath retained, or, obtained strength}
Send
<07971> (8798)
me now therefore a man
<0376>
cunning
<02450>
to work
<06213> (8800)
in gold
<02091>_,
and in silver
<03701>_,
and in brass
<05178>_,
and in iron
<01270>_,
and in purple
<0710>_,
and crimson
<03758>_,
and blue
<08504>_,
and that can skill
<03045> (8802)
to grave
<06605> (8763) <06603>
with the cunning men
<02450>
that [are] with me in Judah
<03063>
and in Jerusalem
<03389>_,
whom David
<01732>
my father
<01>
did provide
<03559> (8689)_.
{to grave: Heb. to grave gravings}
Send
<07971> (8798)
me also cedar
<0730>
trees
<06086>_,
fir trees
<01265>_,
and algum trees
<0418>_,
out of Lebanon
<03844>_:
for I know
<03045> (8804)
that thy servants
<05650>
can skill
<03045> (8802)
to cut
<03772> (8800)
timber
<06086>
in Lebanon
<03844>_;
and, behold, my servants
<05650>
[shall be] with thy servants
<05650>_,
{algum: also called, almuggim}
Even to prepare
<03559> (8687)
me timber
<06086>
in abundance
<07230>_:
for the house
<01004>
which I am about to build
<01129> (8802)
[shall be] wonderful
<06381> (8687)
great
<01419>_.
{wonderful...: Heb. great and wonderful}
And, behold, I will give
<05414> (8804)
to thy servants
<05650>_,
the hewers
<02404> (8802)
that cut
<03772> (8802)
timber
<06086>_,
twenty
<06242>
thousand
<0505>
measures
<03734>
of beaten
<04347>

<02406>_,
and twenty
<06242>
thousand
<0505>

<01324>
of wine
<03196>_,
and twenty
<06242>
thousand
<0505>
baths
<01324>
of oil
<08081>_.
Then Huram
<02361>
the king
<04428>
of Tyre
<06865>
answered
<0559> (8799)
in writing
<03791>_,
which he sent
<07971> (8799)
to Solomon
<08010>_,
Because the LORD
<03068>
hath loved
<0160>
his people
<05971>_,
he hath made
<05414> (8804)
thee king
<04428>
over them.
Huram
<02361>
said
<0559> (8799)
moreover, Blessed
<01288> (8803)
[be] the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_,
that made
<06213> (8804)
heaven
<08064>
and earth
<0776>_,
who hath given
<05414> (8804)
to David
<01732>
the king
<04428>
a wise
<02450>
son
<01121>_,
endued
<03045> (8802)
with prudence
<07922>
and understanding
<0998>_,
that might build
<01129> (8799)
an house
<01004>
for the LORD
<03068>_,
and an house
<01004>
for his kingdom
<04438>_.
{endued...: Heb. knowing prudence and understanding}
And now I have sent
<07971> (8804)
a cunning
<02450>
man
<0376>_,
endued
<03045> (8802)
with understanding
<0998>_,
of Huram
<02361>
my father's
<01>_,
The son
<01121>
of a woman
<0802>
of the daughters
<01323>
of Dan
<01835>_,
and his father
<01>
[was] a man
<0376>
of Tyre
<06876>_,
skilful
<03045> (8802)
to work
<06213> (8800)
in gold
<02091>_,
and in silver
<03701>_,
in brass
<05178>_,
in iron
<01270>_,
in stone
<068>_,
and in timber
<06086>_,
in purple
<0713>_,
in blue
<08504>_,
and in fine linen
<0948>_,
and in crimson
<03758>_;
also to grave
<06605> (8763)
any manner of graving
<06603>_,
and to find out
<02803> (8800)
every device
<04284>
which shall be put
<05414> (8735)
to him, with thy cunning men
<02450>_,
and with the cunning men
<02450>
of my lord
<0113>
David
<01732>
thy father
<01>_.
Now therefore the wheat
<02406>_,
and the barley
<08184>_,
the oil
<08081>_,
and the wine
<03196>_,
which my lord
<0113>
hath spoken
<0559> (8804)
of, let him send
<07971> (8799)
unto his servants
<05650>_:
And we will cut
<03772> (8799)
wood
<06086>
out of Lebanon
<03844>_,
as much as thou shalt need
<06878>_:
and we will bring
<0935> (8686)
it to thee in floats
<07513>
by sea
<03220>
to Joppa
<03305>_;
and thou shalt carry it up
<05927> (8686)
to Jerusalem
<03389>_.
{as much...: Heb according to all thy need} {Joppa: Heb. Japho}
And Solomon
<08010>
numbered
<05608> (8799)
all the strangers
<0582> <01616>
that [were] in the land
<0776>
of Israel
<03478>_,
after
<0310>
the numbering
<05610>
wherewith David
<01732>
his father
<01>
had numbered
<05608> (8804)
them; and they were found
<04672> (8735)
an hundred
<03967>
and fifty
<02572>
thousand
<0505>
and three
<07969>
thousand
<0505>
and six
<08337>
hundred
<03967>_.
{the strangers: Heb. the men the strangers}
And he set
<06213> (8799)
threescore and ten
<07657>
thousand
<0505>
of them [to be] bearers of burdens
<05449>_,
and fourscore
<08084>
thousand
<0505>
[to be] hewers
<02672> (8802)
in the mountain
<02022>_,
and three
<07969>
thousand
<0505>
and six
<08337>
hundred
<03967>
overseers
<05329> (8764)
to set
<05647> (0)
the people
<05971>
a work
<05647> (8687)_.
Then Solomon
<08010>
began
<02490> (8686)
to build
<01129> (8800)
the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>
at Jerusalem
<03389>
in mount
<02022>
Moriah
<04179>_,
where [the LORD] appeared
<07200> (8738)
unto David
<01732>
his father
<01>_,
in the place
<04725>
that David
<01732>
had prepared
<03559> (8689)
in the threshingfloor
<01637>
of Ornan
<0771>
the Jebusite
<02983>_.
{where...: or, which was seen of David his father} {Ornan: also called, Araunah}
And he began
<02490> (8686)
to build
<01129> (8800)
in the second
<08145>
[day] of the second
<08145>
month
<02320>_,
in the fourth
<0702>
year
<08141>
of his reign
<04438>_.
Now these [are the things wherein] Solomon
<08010>
was instructed
<03245> (8717)
for the building
<01129> (8800)
of the house
<01004>
of God
<0430>_.
The length
<0753>
by cubits
<0520>
after the first
<07223>
measure
<04060>
[was] threescore
<08346>
cubits
<0520>_,
and the breadth
<07341>

<06242>

<0520>_.
{instructed: Heb. founded}
And the porch
<0197>
that [was] in the front
<06440>
[of the house], the length
<0753>
[of it was] according to the breadth
<07341>
of the house
<01004>_,
twenty
<06242>
cubits
<0520>_,
and the height
<01363>
[was] an hundred
<03967>
and twenty
<06242>_:
and he overlaid
<06823> (8762)
it within
<06441>
with pure
<02889>
gold
<02091>_.
And the greater
<01419>
house
<01004>
he cieled
<02645> (8765)
with fir
<01265>
tree
<06086>_,
which he overlaid
<02645> (8762)
with fine
<02896>
gold
<02091>_,
and set
<05927> (8686)
thereon palm trees
<08561>
and chains
<08333>_.
And he garnished
<06823> (8762)
the house
<01004>
with precious
<03368>
stones
<068>
for beauty
<08597>_:
and the gold
<02091>
[was] gold
<02091>
of Parvaim
<06516>_.
{garnished: Heb. covered}
He overlaid
<02645> (8762)
also the house
<01004>_,
the beams
<06982>_,
the posts
<05592>_,
and the walls
<07023>
thereof, and the doors
<01817>
thereof, with gold
<02091>_;
and graved
<06605> (8765)
cherubims
<03742>
on the walls
<07023>_.
And he made
<06213> (8799)
the most
<06944>
holy
<06944>
house
<01004>_,
the length
<0753>
whereof [was] according to
<06440>
the breadth
<07341>
of the house
<01004>_,
twenty
<06242>
cubits
<0520>_,
and the breadth
<07341>
thereof twenty
<06242>
cubits
<0520>_:
and he overlaid
<02645> (8762)
it with fine
<02896>
gold
<02091>_,
[amounting] to six
<08337>
hundred
<03967>
talents
<03603>_.
And the weight
<04948>
of the nails
<04548>
[was] fifty
<02572>
shekels
<08255>
of gold
<02091>_.
And he overlaid
<02645> (8765)
the upper chambers
<05944>
with gold
<02091>_.
And in the most
<06944>
holy
<06944>
house
<01004>
he made
<06213> (8799)
two
<08147>
cherubims
<03742>
of image
<06816>
work
<04639>_,
and overlaid
<06823> (8762)
them with gold
<02091>_.
{image...: or, (as some think) of moveable work}
And the wings
<03671>
of the cherubims
<03742>
[were] twenty
<06242>
cubits
<0520>
long
<0753>_:
one
<0259>
wing
<03671>
[of the one cherub was] five
<02568>
cubits
<0520>_,
reaching
<05060> (8688)
to the wall
<07023>
of the house
<01004>_:
and the other
<0312>
wing
<03671>
[was likewise] five
<02568>
cubits
<0520>_,
reaching
<05060> (8688)
to the wing
<03671>
of the other
<0312>
cherub
<03742>_.
And [one] wing
<03671>
of the other
<0259>
cherub
<03742>
[was] five
<02568>
cubits
<0520>_,
reaching
<05060> (8688)
to the wall
<07023>
of the house
<01004>_:
and the other
<0312>
wing
<03671>
[was] five
<02568>
cubits
<0520>
[also], joining
<01695>
to the wing
<03671>
of the other
<0312>
cherub
<03742>_.
The wings
<03671>
of these cherubims
<03742>
spread themselves forth
<06566> (8802)
twenty
<06242>
cubits
<0520>_:
and they stood
<05975> (8802)
on their feet
<07272>_,
and their faces
<06440>
[were] inward
<01004>_.
{inward: or, toward the house}
And he made
<06213> (8799)
the vail
<06532>
[of] blue
<08504>_,
and purple
<0713>_,
and crimson
<03758>_,
and fine linen
<0948>_,
and wrought
<05927> (8686)
cherubims
<03742>
thereon. {wrought: Heb. caused to ascend}
Also he made
<06213> (8799)
before
<06440>
the house
<01004>
two
<08147>
pillars
<05982>
of thirty
<07970>
and five
<02568>
cubits
<0520>
high
<0753>_,
and the chapiter
<06858>
that [was] on the top
<07218>
of each of them [was] five
<02568>
cubits
<0520>_.
{high: Heb. long}
And he made
<06213> (8799)
chains
<08333>_,
[as] in the oracle
<01687>_,
and put
<05414> (8799)
[them] on the heads
<07218>
of the pillars
<05982>_;
and made
<06213> (8799)
an hundred
<03967>
pomegranates
<07416>_,
and put
<05414> (8799)
[them] on the chains
<08333>_.
And he reared up
<06965> (8686)
the pillars
<05982>
before
<06440>
the temple
<01964>_,
one
<0259>
on the right hand
<03225>_,
and the other
<0259>
on the left
<08040>_;
and called
<07121> (8799)

<08034>
of that on the right hand
<03233> (8675) <03227>
Jachin
<03199>_,
and the name
<08034>
of that on the left
<08042>
Boaz
<01162>_.
{Jachin: that is, He shall establish} {Boaz: that is, In it is strength}
Moreover he made
<06213> (8799)
an altar
<04196>
of brass
<05178>_,
twenty
<06242>
cubits
<0520>

<0753>
thereof, and twenty
<06242>
cubits
<0520>
the breadth
<07341>
thereof, and ten
<06235>
cubits
<0520>

<06967>
thereof.
Also he made
<06213> (8799)
a molten
<03332> (8716)
sea
<03220>
of ten
<06235>
cubits
<0520>
from brim
<08193>

<08193>_,
round
<05696>
in compass
<05439>_,
and five
<02568>

<0520>
the height
<06967>
thereof; and a line
<06957>
of thirty
<07970>
cubits
<0520>
did compass
<05437> (8799)
it round about
<05439>_.
{from...: Heb. from his brim to his brim}
And under it [was] the similitude
<01823>
of oxen
<01241>_,
which did compass
<05437> (8802)
it round about
<05439>_:
ten
<06235>
in a cubit
<0520>_,
compassing
<05362> (8688)
the sea
<03220>
round about
<05439>_.
Two
<08147>
rows
<02905>
of oxen
<01241>
[were] cast
<03332> (8803)_,
when it was cast
<04166>_.
It stood
<05975> (8802)
upon twelve
<08147> <06240>
oxen
<01241>_,
three
<07969>
looking
<06437> (8802)
toward the north
<06828>_,
and three

[was set] above
<04605>
upon them, and all their hinder parts
<0268>

for the burnt offering
<05930>
they washed

And he set

The pots

and the fleshhooks
<04207>_,
and all their instruments
<03627>_,
did Huram
<02361>
his father
<01>
make
<06213> (8804)

made
<06213> (8799)
all these vessels
<03627>

abundance
<07230>_:
for the weight
<04948>
of the brass

could not be found out
<02713> (8738)_.
And Solomon
<08010>
made

for the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>
