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].
17
And the house, that [is], the temple before it, was forty cubits [long].
18
And the cedar of the house within [was] carved with knobs and open flowers: all [was] cedar; there was no stone seen.
19
And the oracle he prepared in the house within, to set there the ark of the covenant of the LORD.
20
And the oracle in the forepart [was] twenty cubits in length, and twenty cubits in breadth, and twenty cubits in the hight of it, and he overlaid it with pure gold; and [so] covered the altar [which was of] cedar.
21
So Solomon overlaid the house within with pure gold: and he made a partition by the chains of gold before the oracle; and he overlaid it with gold.
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.
23
And within the oracle he made two cherubim [of] olive tree, [each] ten cubits high.
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 to the uttermost part of the other [were] ten cubits.
25
And the other cherub [was] ten cubits: both the cherubim [were] of one measure and one size.
26
The hight of the one cherub [was] ten cubits, and so [was it] of the other cherub.
