3
These are Solomon's measurements for building the house of God: the length, in cubits of the old standard, was sixty cubits, and the breadth twenty cubits.
4
The vestibule in front of the nave of the house was twenty cubits long, equal to the width of the house; and its height was a hundred and twenty cubits. He overlaid it on the inside with pure gold.
5
The nave he lined with cypress, and covered it with fine gold, and made palms and chains on it.
6
He adorned the house with settings of precious stones. The gold was gold of Parva'im.
7
So he lined the house with gold--its beams, its thresholds, its walls, and its doors; and he carved cherubim on the walls.
