14:002:018 And he set threescore and ten thousand
of them to be bearers
of
burdens, and fourscore thousand to be hewers in the
mountain,
and three thousand and six hundred overseers to set
the
people a work.
14:003:001 Then Solomon began to build the house of
the lord at Jerusalem
in
mount Moriah, where the Lord appeared unto David his
father,
in the place that David had prepared in the
threshingfloor
of Ornan the Jebusite.
14:003:002 And he began to build in the second day
of the second month,
in
the fourth year of his reign.
14:003:003 Now these are the things wherein Solomon
was instructed for
the
building of the house of God. The length by cubits
after
the
first measure was threescore cubits, and the breadth
twenty
cubits.
14:003:004 And the porch that was in the front of
the house, the length
of
it was according to the breadth of the house, twenty
cubits,
and the height was an hundred and twenty: and
he
overlaid
it within with pure gold.
14:003:005 And the greater house he cieled with fir
tree, which he
overlaid
with fine gold, and set thereon palm trees and
chains.
14:003:006 And he garnished the house with precious
stones for beauty:
and
the gold was gold of Parvaim.
14:003:007 He overlaid also the house, the beams,
the posts, and the
walls
thereof, and the doors thereof, with gold; and graved
cherubims
on the walls.
14:003:008 And he made the most holy house, the length
whereof was
according
to the breadth of the house, twenty cubits, and the
breadth
thereof twenty cubits: and he overlaid it with
fine
gold,
amounting to six hundred talents.
14:003:009 And the weight of the nails was fifty shekels
of gold. And he
overlaid
the upper chambers with gold.
14:003:010 And in the most holy house he made two
cherubims of image
work,
and overlaid them with gold.
14:003:011 And the wings of the cherubims were twenty
cubits long: one
wing
of the one cherub was five cubits, reaching to the
wall
of
the house: and the other wing was likewise five
cubits,
reaching
to the wing of the other cherub.
14:003:012 And one wing of the other cherub was five
cubits, reaching to
the
wall of the house: and the other wing was five
cubits
also,
joining to the wing of the other cherub.
14:003:013 The wings of these cherubims spread themselves
forth twenty
cubits:
and they stood on their feet, and their faces were
inward.
14:003:014 And he made the vail of blue, and purple,
and crimson, and
fine
linen, and wrought cherubims thereon.
