1 Kings 6:10-17
-
10 And then he built chambers against all the house, five cubits high: and they rested on the house with timber of cedar.
-
11 And the word of the LORD came to Solomon, saying,
-
12 Concerning this house which thou art in building, if thou wilt walk in my statutes, and execute my judgments, and keep all my commandments to walk in them; then will I perform my word with thee, which I spake unto David thy father:
-
13 And I will dwell among the children of Israel, and will not forsake my people Israel.
-
14 So Solomon built the house, and finished it.
-
15 And he built the walls of the house within with boards of cedar, both the floor of the house, and the walls of the ceiling: and he covered them on the inside with wood, and covered the floor of the house with planks of fir.
-
16 And he built twenty cubits on the sides of the house, both the floor and the walls with boards of cedar: he even built them for it within, even for the oracle, even for the most holy place.
-
17 And the house, that is, the temple before it, was forty cubits long.
