23
And within the oracle he made two cherubims
of olive wood,
each ten cubits high.
24
And one wing of the cherub was five cubits, and the other wing of the cherub five cubits; from the uttermost part of the one wing unto the uttermost part of the other
were ten cubits.
25
Likewise, the other cherub
was ten cubits, for both the cherubims
were of one measure and one size.
26
The height of one cherub
was ten cubits, and so
was the other cherub.
27
And he set the cherubims within the inner house, and they stretched forth the wings of the cherubims, so that the wing of the one touched the
one wall, and the wing of the other cherub touched the other wall; and their wings touched one another in the midst of the house.
28
And he overlaid the cherubims with gold.
29
And he carved all the walls of the house round about with carved figures of cherubims and palm trees and open flowers, within and without.
30
And the floor of the house he overlaid with gold, within and without.
31
And at the entrance of the oracle he made doors
of olive wood; the lintel
and side posts had five sides.
32
The two doors
were of olive wood, and he carved upon them carvings of cherubims and palm trees and open flowers and overlaid
them with gold and covered the cherubims and the palm trees with gold.
33
In the same manner he made posts
of olive wood at the entrance of the temple with four sides.
