New King James Version

1 Kings 6:10-16 New King James Version (NKJV)

10. And he built side chambers against the entire temple, each five cubits high; they were attached to the temple with cedar beams.

11. Then the word of the Lord came to Solomon, saying:

12. “Concerning this temple which you are building, if you walk in My statutes, execute My judgments, keep all My commandments, and walk in them, then I will perform My word with you, which I spoke to your father David.

13. And I will dwell among the children of Israel, and will not forsake My people Israel.”

14. So Solomon built the temple and finished it.

15. And he built the inside walls of the temple with cedar boards; from the floor of the temple to the ceiling he paneled the inside with wood; and he covered the floor of the temple with planks of cypress.

16. Then he built the twenty-cubit room at the rear of the temple, from floor to ceiling, with cedar boards; he built it inside as the inner sanctuary, as the Most Holy Place.
