to build the walls of the house
inside it with boards of cedar.
Fromthefloorofthehouseupto
the rafters of the ceiling he overlaid
it with timber inside; and he
went on to overlay the floor of
the house with boards of juniper.

cubits at the rear sides of the
house with boards of cedar, from
the floor up to the rafters, and

inside the inner house, so
that they spread out the wings
of the cherubs. c Thus the wing of
the one reached to the wall and
the wing of the other cherub was
reaching to the other wall; and
their wings were toward the middle
of the house, reaching wing
to wing. d 28 Moreover, he overlaid
the cherubs with gold. e
29 And all the walls of the
house round about he carved
with engraved carvings of cherubs
f and palm-tree figures g
and engravings of blossoms, h
inside and outside; 30 and the
floor i of the house he overlaid
with gold, inside and outside.
31 And the entrance of the innermost
room he made with
doors j of oil-tree k wood: side pillars,
doorposts and a fifth.
32 And the two doors were of
oil-tree wood, and he carved
upon them carvings of cherubs
and palm-tree figures and the
engravings of blossoms, and he
overlaid them with gold; and he
proceeded to beat the gold down
upon the cherubs and the palmtree
figures. 33 And that was
the way he made for the entrance
of the temple, the doorposts
of oil-tree wood, foursquare.
34 And the two doors
were of juniper wood. l The two
leaves of the one door turned
on pivots, and the two leaves of
the other door turned on pivots. m
