1. Solomon was building his own house thirteen years, and he finished his entire house.
|
1. But Solomon H8010 was building H1129 his own house H1004 thirteen H7969 H6240 years H8141 , and he finished H3615 H853 all H3605 his house H1004 .
|
|
2. He built the House of the Forest of the Lebanon one hundred cubits long, fifty cubits wide, and thirty cubits high, built on four rows of cedar pillars, with cedar beams on the pillars.
|
2. He built H1129 also H853 the house H1004 of the forest H3293 of Lebanon H3844 ; the length H753 thereof was a hundred H3967 cubits H520 , and the breadth H7341 thereof fifty H2572 cubits H520 , and the height H6967 thereof thirty H7970 cubits H520 , upon H5921 four H702 rows H2905 of cedar H730 pillars H5982 , with cedar H730 beams H3773 upon H5921 the pillars H5982 .
|
|
3. It was roofed with cedar on the forty-five rafters, fifteen in each row, which were on the pillars.
|
3. And it was covered H5603 with cedar H730 above H4480 H4605 upon H5921 the beams H6763 , that H834 lay on H5921 forty H705 five H2568 pillars H5982 , fifteen H2568 H6240 in a row H2905 .
|
|
4. There were window frames in the three rows, facing each other in the three rows.
|
4. And there were windows H8261 in three H7969 rows H2905 , and light H4237 was against H413 light H4237 in three H7969 ranks H6471 .
|
|
5. All the doorways and doorposts had four-sided frames, opposite, facing each other in the three rows.
|
5. And all H3605 the doors H6607 and posts H4201 were square H7251 , with the windows H8260 : and light H4237 was against H413 light H4237 in three H7969 ranks H6471 .
|
|
6. He made the Hall of Pillars fifty cubits long and thirty cubits wide. There was a porch in front with pillars, and a canopy in front of them.
|
6. And he made H6213 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 H5921 H6440 them : and the other pillars H5982 and the thick beam H5646 were before H5921 H6440 them.
|
|
7. He made the Hall of the Throne where he was to pronounce judgment, the Hall of Justice, covered with cedar from floor to floor.
|
7. Then he made H6213 a porch H197 for the throne H3678 where H834 H8033 he might judge H8199 , even the porch H197 of judgment H4941 : and it was covered H5603 with cedar H730 from one side of the floor H4480 H7172 to H5704 the other H7172 .
|
|
8. His own house where he would reside, in the other court back of the hall, was of the same construction. Solomon also made a house like this hall for Pharaoh's daughter, whom he had taken in marriage.
|
8. And his house H1004 where H834 H8033 he dwelt H3427 had another H312 court H2691 within H4480 H1004 the porch H197 , which was H1961 of the like H2088 work H4639 . Solomon H8010 made H6213 also a house H1004 for Pharaoh H6547 's daughter H1323 , whom H834 he had taken H3947 to wife , like unto this H2088 porch H197 .
|
|
9. All these were made of costly stones, cut according to measure, sawed with saws, back and front, from the foundation to the coping, and from outside to the great court.
|
9. All H3605 these H428 were of costly H3368 stones H68 , according to the measures H4060 of hewed stones H1496 , sawed H1641 with saws H4050 , within H4480 H1004 and without H4480 H2351 , even from the foundation H4480 H4527 unto H5704 the coping H2948 , and so on the outside H4480 H2351 toward H5704 the great H1419 court H2691 .
|
|
10. The foundation was of costly stones, huge stones, stones of eight and ten cubits.
|
10. And the foundation H3245 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. There were costly stones above, cut to measure, and cedarwood.
|
11. And above H4480 H4605 were costly H3368 stones H68 , after the measures H4060 of hewed stones H1496 , and cedars H730 .
|
|
12. The great court had three courses of dressed stone to one layer of cedar beams all around; so had the inner court of the house of the LORD, and the vestibule of the house.
|
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. Now King Solomon invited and received Hiram from Tyre.
|
13. And king H4428 Solomon H8010 sent H7971 and fetched H3947 H853 Hiram H2438 out of Tyre H4480 H6865 .
|
|
14. He was the son of a widow of the tribe of Naphtali, whose father, a man of Tyre, had been an artisan in bronze; he was full of skill, intelligence, and knowledge in working bronze. He came to King Solomon, and did all his work.
|
14. He H1931 was a widow H490 's son H1121 of the tribe H4480 H4294 of Naphtali H5321 , and his father H1 was a man H376 of Tyre H6876 , a worker H2790 in brass H5178 : and he was filled H4390 with H854 wisdom H2451 , and understanding H8394 , and cunning H1847 to work H6213 all H3605 works H4399 in brass H5178 . And he came H935 to H413 king H4428 Solomon H8010 , and wrought H6213 H853 all H3605 his work H4399 .
|
|
15. He cast two pillars of bronze. Eighteen cubits was the height of the one, and a cord of twelve cubits would encircle it; the second pillar was the same.
|
15. For he cast H6696 H853 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 either of them about H5437 H853 H5982 H8145 .
|
|
16. He also 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.
|
16. And he made H6213 two H8147 chapiters H3805 of molten H3332 brass H5178 , to set H5414 upon H5921 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. There were nets of checker work with wreaths of chain work for the capitals on the tops of the pillars; seven for the one capital, and seven for the other capital.
|
17. And nets H7638 of checker H7639 work H4639 , and wreaths H1434 of chain H8333 work H4639 , for the chapiters H3805 which H834 were upon H5921 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. He made the columns with two rows around each latticework to cover the capitals that were above the pomegranates; he did the same with the other capital.
|
18. And he made H6213 H853 the pillars H5982 , and two H8147 rows H2905 round about H5439 upon H5921 the one H259 network H7639 , to cover H3680 H853 the chapiters H3805 that H834 were upon H5921 the top H7218 , with pomegranates H7416 : and so H3651 did H6213 he for the other H8145 chapiter H3805 .
|
|
19. Now the capitals that were on the tops of the pillars in the vestibule were of lily-work, four cubits high.
|
19. And the chapiters H3805 that H834 were upon H5921 the top H7218 of the pillars H5982 were of lily H7799 work H4639 in the porch H197 , four H702 cubits H520 .
|
|
20. The capitals were on the two pillars and also above the rounded projection that was beside the latticework; there were two hundred pomegranates in rows all around; and so with the other capital.
|
20. And the chapiters H3805 upon H5921 the two H8147 pillars H5982 had pomegranates also H1571 above H4480 H4605 , over against H4480 H5980 the belly H990 which H834 was by H5676 the network H7639 : and the pomegranates H7416 were two hundred H3967 in rows H2905 round about H5439 upon H5921 the other H8145 chapiter H3805 .
|
|
21. He set up the pillars at the vestibule of the temple; he set up the pillar on the south and called it Jachin; and he set up the pillar on the north and called it Boaz.
|
21. And he set up H6965 H853 the pillars H5982 in the porch H197 of the temple H1964 : and he set up H6965 the right H3233 H853 pillar H5982 , and called H7121 H853 the name H8034 thereof Jachin H3199 : and he set up H6965 H853 the left H8042 pillar H5982 , and called H7121 H853 the name H8034 thereof Boaz H1162 .
|
|
22. On the tops of the pillars was lily-work. Thus the work of the pillars was finished.
|
22. And upon H5921 the top H7218 of the pillars H5982 was lily H7799 work H4639 : so was the work H4399 of the pillars H5982 finished H8552 .
|
|
23. Then he made the molten sea; it was round, ten cubits from brim to brim, and five cubits high. A line of thirty cubits would encircle it completely.
|
23. And he made H6213 H853 a molten H3332 sea H3220 , ten H6235 cubits H520 from the one brim H4480 H8193 to H5704 the other H8193 : it was round H5696 all about H5439 , and his height H6967 was five H2568 cubits H520 : and a line H6957 of thirty H7970 cubits H520 did compass H5437 it round about H5439 .
|
|
24. Under its brim were panels all around it, each of ten cubits, surrounding the sea; there were two rows of panels, cast when it was cast.
|
24. And under H4480 H8478 the brim H8193 of it round about H5439 there were knops H6497 compassing H5437 it, ten H6235 in a cubit H520 , compassing H5362 H853 the sea H3220 round about H5439 : the knops H6497 were cast H3332 in two H8147 rows H2905 , when it was cast H3333 .
|
|
25. It stood on twelve oxen, three facing north, three facing west, three facing south, and three facing east; the sea was set on them. The hindquarters of each were toward the inside.
|
25. It stood H5975 upon H5921 twelve H8147 H6240 oxen H1241 , three H7969 looking H6437 toward the north H6828 , and three H7969 looking H6437 toward the west H3220 , and three H7969 looking H6437 toward the south H5045 , and three H7969 looking H6437 toward the east H4217 : and the sea H3220 was set above H4480 H4605 upon H5921 them , and all H3605 their hinder parts H268 were inward H1004 .
|
|
26. Its thickness was a handbreadth; its brim was made like the brim of a cup, like the flower of a lily; it held two thousand baths.
|
26. And it was a handbreadth 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 two thousand H505 baths H1324 .
|
|
27. He also made the ten stands of bronze; each stand was four cubits long, four cubits wide, and three cubits high.
|
27. And he made H6213 H853 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. This was the construction of the stands: they had borders; the borders were within the frames;
|
28. And the work H4639 of the bases H4350 was on this H2088 manner : they had borders H4526 , and the borders H4526 were between H996 the ledges H7948 :
|
|
29. on the borders that were set in the frames were lions, oxen, and cherubim. On the frames, both above and below the lions and oxen, there were wreaths of beveled work.
|
29. And on H5921 the borders H4526 that H834 were between H996 the ledges H7948 were lions H738 , oxen H1241 , and cherubims H3742 : and upon H5921 the ledges H7948 there was a base H3653 above H4480 H4605 : and beneath H4480 H8478 the lions H738 and oxen H1241 were certain additions H3914 made of thin H4174 work H4639 .
|
|
30. Each stand had four bronze wheels and axles of bronze; at the four corners were supports for a basin. The supports were cast with wreaths at the side of each.
|
30. And every H259 base H4350 had four H702 brazen H5178 wheels H212 , and plates H5633 of brass H5178 : and the four H702 corners H6471 thereof had undersetters H3802 : under H4480 H8478 the laver H3595 were undersetters H3802 molten H3332 , at the side H4480 H5676 of every H376 addition H3914 .
|
|
31. Its opening was within the crown whose height was one cubit; its opening was round, as a pedestal is made; it was a cubit and a half wide. At its opening there were carvings; its borders were four-sided, not round.
|
31. And the mouth H6310 of it within H4480 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 a half H2677 H520 : and also H1571 upon H5921 the mouth H6310 of it were gravings H4734 with their borders H4526 , foursquare H7251 , not H3808 round H5696 .
|
|
32. The four wheels were underneath the borders; the axles of the wheels were in the stands; and the height of a wheel was a cubit and a half.
|
32. And under H4480 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. The wheels were made like a chariot wheel; their axles, their rims, their spokes, and their hubs were all cast.
|
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 H3605 molten H3332 .
|
|
34. There were four supports at the four corners of each stand; the supports were of one piece with the stands.
|
34. And there were four H702 undersetters H3802 to H413 the four H702 corners H6438 of one H259 base H4350 : and the undersetters H3802 were of H4480 the very base H4350 itself.
|
|
35. On the top of the stand there was a round band half a cubit high; on the top of the stand, its stays and its borders were of one piece with it.
|
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 H5921 the top H7218 of the base H4350 the ledges H3027 thereof and the borders H4526 thereof were of H4480 the same.
|
|
36. On the surfaces of its stays and on its borders he carved cherubim, lions, and palm trees, where each had space, with wreaths all around.
|
36. For on H5921 the plates H3871 of the ledges H3027 thereof , and on H5921 the borders H4526 thereof , he graved H6605 cherubims H3742 , lions H738 , and palm trees H8561 , according to the proportion H4626 of every one H376 , and additions H3914 round about H5439 .
|
|
37. In this way he made the ten stands; all of them were cast alike, with the same size and the same form.
|
37. After this H2063 manner he made H6213 H853 the ten H6235 bases H4350 : all H3605 of them had one H259 casting H4165 , one H259 measure H4060 , and one H259 size H7095 .
|
|
38. He made ten basins of bronze; each basin held forty baths, each basin measured four cubits; there was a basin for each of the ten stands.
|
38. Then made H6213 he ten H6235 lavers H3595 of brass H5178 : one H259 laver H3595 contained H3557 forty H705 baths H1324 : and every H259 laver H3595 was four H702 cubits H520 : and upon H5921 every one H259 of the ten H6235 bases H4350 one H259 laver H3595 .
|
|
39. He set five of the stands on the south side of the house, and five on the north side of the house; he set the sea on the southeast corner of the house.
|
39. And he put H5414 H853 five H2568 bases H4350 on H5921 the right H4480 H3225 side H3802 of the house H1004 , and five H2568 on H5921 the left H4480 H8040 side H3802 of the house H1004 : and he set H5414 the sea H3220 on the right H3233 side H4480 H3802 of the house H1004 eastward H6924 over against H4480 H4136 the south H5045 .
|
|
40. Hiram also made the pots, the shovels, and the basins. So Hiram finished all the work that he did for King Solomon on the house of the LORD:
|
40. And Hiram H2438 made H6213 H853 the lavers H3595 , and the shovels H3257 , and the basins H4219 . So Hiram H2438 made an end H3615 of doing H6213 H853 all H3605 the work H4399 that H834 he made H6213 king H4428 Solomon H8010 for the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 :
|
|
41. the two pillars, the two bowls of the capitals that were on the tops of the pillars, the two latticeworks to cover the two bowls of the capitals that were on the tops of the pillars;
|
41. The two H8147 pillars H5982 , and the two bowls H1543 of the chapiters H3805 that H834 were on H5921 the top H7218 of the two H8147 pillars H5982 ; and the two H8147 networks H7639 , to cover H3680 H853 the two H8147 bowls H1543 of the chapiters H3805 which H834 were upon H5921 the top H7218 of the pillars H5982 ;
|
|
42. the four hundred pomegranates for the two latticeworks, two rows of pomegranates for each latticework, to cover the two bowls of the capitals that were on the pillars;
|
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 H853 the two H8147 bowls H1543 of the chapiters H3805 that H834 were upon H5921 H6440 the pillars H5982 ;
|
|
43. the ten stands, the ten basins on the stands;
|
43. And the ten H6235 bases H4350 , and ten H6235 lavers H3595 on H5921 the bases H4350 ;
|
|
44. the one sea, and the twelve oxen underneath the sea.
|
44. And one H259 sea H3220 , and twelve H8147 H6240 oxen H1241 under H8478 the sea H3220 ;
|
|
45. The pots, the shovels, and the basins, all these vessels that Hiram made for King Solomon for the house of the LORD were of burnished bronze.
|
45. And the pots H5518 , and the shovels H3257 , and the basins H4219 : and all H3605 these H428 vessels H3627 , which H834 Hiram H2438 made H6213 to king H4428 Solomon H8010 for the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 , were of bright H4803 brass H5178 .
|
|
46. In the plain of the Jordan the king cast them, in the clay ground between Succoth and Zarethan.
|
46. In the plain H3603 of Jordan H3383 did the king H4428 cast H3332 them , in the clay H4568 ground H127 between H996 Succoth H5523 and Zarthan H6891 .
|
|
47. Solomon left all the vessels unweighed, because there were so many of them; the weight of the bronze was not determined.
|
47. And Solomon H8010 left H5117 H853 all H3605 the vessels H3627 unweighed , because they were exceeding H3966 H3966 many H4480 H7230 : neither H3808 was the weight H4948 of the brass H5178 found out H2713 .
|
|
48. So Solomon made all the vessels that were in the house of the LORD: the golden altar, the golden table for the bread of the Presence,
|
48. And Solomon H8010 made H6213 H853 all H3605 the vessels H3627 that H834 pertained unto the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 : H853 the altar H4196 of gold H2091 , and the table H7979 of gold H2091 , whereupon H834 H5921 the shewbread H3899 H6440 was ,
|
|
49. the lampstands of pure gold, five on the south side and five on the north, in front of the inner sanctuary; the flowers, the lamps, and the tongs, of gold;
|
49. And the candlesticks H4501 of pure H5462 gold H2091 , five H2568 on the right H4480 H3225 side , and five H2568 on the left H4480 H8040 , before H6440 the oracle H1687 , with the flowers H6525 , and the lamps H5216 , and the tongs H4457 of gold H2091 ,
|
|
50. the cups, snuffers, basins, dishes for incense, and firepans, of pure gold; the sockets for the doors of the innermost part of the house, the most holy place, and for the doors of the nave of the temple, of gold.
|
50. And the bowls H5592 , and the snuffers H4212 , and the basins H4219 , and the spoons H3709 , and the censers H4289 of pure H5462 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. Thus all the work that King Solomon did on the house of the LORD was finished. Solomon brought in the things that his father David had dedicated, the silver, the gold, and the vessels, and stored them in the treasuries of the house of the LORD.
