11_1KI_07_01 but Solomon was building his own house thirteen years , And he finished all his house .
11_1KI_07_02 he built also the house of the forest of Lebanon ; the length thereof [ was ] an hundred cubits , And the breadth thereof fifty cubits , And the height thereof thirty cubits , upon four rows of cedar pillars , with cedar beams upon the pillars .
11_1KI_07_03 And [ it was ] covered with cedar above upon the beams , that [ lay ] on forty five pillars , fifteen [ in ] A row .
11_1KI_07_04 And [ there were ] windows [ in ] three rows , And light [ was ] against light [ in ] three ranks .
11_1KI_07_05 And all the doors And posts [ were ] square , with the windows : And light [ was ] against light [ in ] three ranks .
11_1KI_07_06 And he made A porch of pillars ; the length thereof [ was ] fifty cubits , And the breadth thereof thirty cubits : And the porch [ was ] before them : And the [ other ] pillars And the thick beam [ were ] before them .
11_1KI_07_07 Then he made A porch for the throne where he might judge , [ even ] the porch of judgment : And [ it was ] covered with cedar from one side of the floor to the other .
11_1KI_07_08 And his house where he dwelt [ had ] another court within the porch , [ which ] was of the like work . Solomon made also an house for Pharaoh's daughter , whom he had taken [ to wife ] , like unto this porch .
11_1KI_07_09 all These [ were of ] costly stones , according to the measures of hewed stones , sawed with saws , within And without , even from the foundation unto the coping , And [ So ] on the outside toward the great court .
11_1KI_07_10 And the foundation [ was of ] costly stones , even great stones , stones of ten cubits , And stones of eight cubits .
11_1KI_07_11 And above [ were ] costly stones , after the measures of hewed stones , And cedars .
11_1KI_07_12 And the great court round about [ was ] with three rows of hewed stones , And A row of cedar beams , Both for the inner court of the house of the LORD , And for the porch of the house .
11_1KI_07_13 And king Solomon sent And fetched Hiram out of Tyre .
11_1KI_07_14 he [ was ] A widow's son of the tribe of Naphtali , And his Father [ was ] A man of Tyre , A worker in brass : And he was filled with wisdom , And understanding , And cunning to work all works in brass . And he came to king Solomon , And wrought all his work .
11_1KI_07_15 for he cast two pillars of brass , of eighteen cubits high apiece : And A line of twelve cubits did compass either of them about .
11_1KI_07_16 And he made two chapiters [ of ] molten brass , to set upon the tops of the pillars : the height of the one chapiter [ was ] five cubits , And the height of the other chapiter [ was ] five cubits :
11_1KI_07_17 [ And ] nets of checker work , And wreaths of chain work , for the chapiters which [ were ] upon the top of the pillars ; seven for the one chapiter , And seven for the other chapiter .
11_1KI_07_18 And he made the pillars , And two rows round about upon the one network , to cover the chapiters that [ were ] upon the top , with pomegranates : And So did he for the other chapiter .
11_1KI_07_19 And the chapiters that [ were ] upon the top of the pillars [ were ] of lily work in the porch , four cubits .
11_1KI_07_20 And the chapiters upon the two pillars [ had pomegranates ] also above , over against the belly which [ was ] by the network : And the pomegranates [ were ] two hundred in rows round about upon the other chapiter .
11_1KI_07_21 And he set up the pillars in the porch of the temple : And he set up the right pillar , And called the name thereof Jachin : And he set up the left pillar , And called the name thereof Boaz .
11_1KI_07_22 And upon the top of the pillars [ was ] lily work : So was the work of the pillars finished .
11_1KI_07_23 And he made A molten sea , ten cubits from the one brim to the other : [ it was ] round all about , And his height [ was ] five cubits : And A line of thirty cubits did compass it round about .
11_1KI_07_24 And under the brim of it round about [ there were ] knops compassing it , ten in A cubit , compassing the sea round about : the knops [ were ] cast in two rows , when it was cast .
11_1KI_07_25 it stood upon twelve oxen , three looking toward the north , And three looking toward the west , And three looking toward the south , And three looking toward the east : And the sea [ was set ] above upon them , And all their hinder parts [ were ] inward .
11_1KI_07_26 And it [ was ] an hand breadth thick , And the brim thereof was wrought like the brim of A cup , with flowers of lilies : it contained two thousand baths .
11_1KI_07_27 And he made ten bases of brass ; four cubits [ was ] the length of one base , And four cubits the breadth thereof , And three cubits the height of it .
11_1KI_07_28 And the work of the bases [ was ] on this [ manner ] : they had borders , And the borders [ were ] between the ledges :
11_1KI_07_29 And on the borders that [ were ] between the ledges [ were ] lions , oxen , And cherubims : And upon the ledges [ there was ] A base above : And beneath the lions And oxen [ were ] certain additions made of thin work .
11_1KI_07_30 And every base had four brazen wheels , And plates of brass : And the four corners thereof had undersetters : under the laver [ were ] undersetters molten , at the side of every addition .
11_1KI_07_31 And the mouth of it within the chapiter And above [ was ] A cubit : but the mouth thereof [ was ] round [ after ] the work of the base , A cubit And an half : And also upon the mouth of it [ were ] gravings with their borders , foursquare , not round .
11_1KI_07_32 And under the borders [ were ] four wheels ; And the axletrees of the wheels [ were joined ] to the base : And the height of A wheel [ was ] A cubit And half A cubit .
11_1KI_07_33 And the work of the wheels [ was ] like the work of A chariot wheel : their axletrees , And their naves , And their felloes , And their spokes , [ were ] all molten .
11_1KI_07_34 And [ there were ] four undersetters to the four corners of one base : [ And ] the undersetters [ were ] of the very base itself .
11_1KI_07_35 And in the top of the base [ was there ] A round compass of half A cubit high : And on the top of the base the ledges thereof And the borders thereof [ were ] of the same .
11_1KI_07_36 for on the plates of the ledges thereof , And on the borders thereof , he graved cherubims , lions , And palm trees , according to the proportion of every one , And additions round about .
11_1KI_07_37 after this [ manner ] he made the ten bases : all of them had one casting , one measure , [ And ] one size .
11_1KI_07_38 Then made he ten lavers of brass : one laver contained forty baths : [ And ] every laver was four cubits : [ And ] upon every one of the ten bases one laver .
11_1KI_07_39 And he put five bases on the right side of the house , And five on the left side of the house : And he set the sea on the right side of the house eastward over against the south .
11_1KI_07_40 And Hiram made the lavers , And the shovels , And the basins . So Hiram made an end of doing all the work that he made king Solomon for the house of the LORD :
11_1KI_07_41 the two pillars , And the [ two ] bowls of the chapiters that [ were ] on the top of the two pillars ; And the two networks , to cover the two bowls of the chapiters which [ were ] upon the top of the pillars ;
11_1KI_07_42 And four hundred pomegranates for the two networks , [ even ] two rows of pomegranates for one network , to cover the two bowls of the chapiters that [ were ] upon the pillars ;
11_1KI_07_43 And the ten bases , And ten lavers on the bases ;
11_1KI_07_44 And one sea , And twelve oxen under the sea ;
11_1KI_07_45 And the pots , And the shovels , And the basins : And all These vessels , which Hiram made to king Solomon for the house of the LORD , [ were of ] bright brass .
11_1KI_07_46 in the plain of Jordan did the king cast them , in the clay ground between Succoth And Zarthan .
11_1KI_07_47 And Solomon left all the vessels [ unweighed ] , because they were exceeding Many : neither was the weight of the brass found out .
11_1KI_07_48 And Solomon made all the vessels that [ pertained ] unto the house of the LORD : the altar of gold , And the table of gold , whereupon the showbread [ was ] ,
11_1KI_07_49 And the candlesticks of pure gold , five on the right [ side ] , And five on the left , before the oracle , with the flowers , And the lamps , And the tongs [ of ] gold ,
11_1KI_07_50 And the bowls , And the snuffers , And the basins , And the spoons , And the censers [ of ] pure gold ; And the hinges [ of ] gold , [ Both ] for the doors of the inner house , the most holy [ place , And ] for the doors of the house , [ to wit ] , of the temple .
11_1KI_07_51 So was ended all the work that king Solomon made for the house of the LORD . And Solomon brought in the things which David his Father had dedicated ; [ even ] the silver , And the gold , And the vessels , did he put among the treasures of the house of the LORD .
