3. And these are the foundations which Shelomoh laid for building the House of Elohim: The length by cubits according to the former measure were sixty cubits, and the width twenty cubits.

4. And the porch that was in front was twenty cubits long according to the breadth of the house, and the height was one hundred and twenty. And he overlaid the inside with clean gold.

5. And the great house he panelled with cypress which he overlaid with fine gold, and he carved palm trees and chainwork on it.

6. And he covered the house with precious stones for comeliness, and the gold was gold from Parwayim.

7. And he overlaid the house, the beams, the doorposts, and its walls, and its doors with gold, and carved keruḇim on the walls.

8. And he made the House of the Most Set-apart. Its length was according to the width of the house, twenty cubits, and its width twenty cubits. And he overlaid it with fine gold, six hundred talents.

9. And the weight of the nails was fifty sheqels of gold. And he overlaid the upper rooms with gold.

10. In the Most Set-apart House he made two keruḇim of sculptured work, and overlaid them with gold.
