2 Chronicles 3:10-17 Common English Bible (CEB)

10. In the most holy place he formed two statues of winged creatures and covered them with gold.

11. Together the wingspan of these creatures was thirty feet. One of the first creature’s wings was seven and a half feet long and touched the temple wall, while the other wing was seven and a half feet long, touching the wing of the other creature.

12. Similarly, one wing of the other creature was seven and a half feet long and touched the temple wall, while the other wing was seven and a half feet long and touched the other creature.

13. The wings of these creatures extended thirty feet. They stood on their feet facing the main room.

14. Then he made the curtain out of fine linen and violet, purple, and crimson yarn, weaving winged creatures into it.

15. Then he made two columns in front of the temple, fifty-two and a half feet high, with a seven and a half foot cap on top of each.

16. Then he made chains like a necklace and placed them on the tops of the columns. He made a hundred pomegranates and placed them into the chains.

17. Then he set up the pillars in front of the sanctuary, one on the south, the other on the north. The one on the south he named Jachin, and the one on the north he named Boaz.
