7:1 But Solomon 8010 was building 1129 8804 his own house 1004 thirteen 7969 6240 years 8141, and he finished 3615 8762 all his house 1004.

7:2 He built 1129 8799 also the house 1004 of the forest 3293 of Lebanon 3844; the length 753 thereof [was] an hundred 3967 cubits 520, and the breadth 7341 thereof fifty 2572 cubits 520, and the height 6967 thereof thirty 7970 cubits 520, upon four 702 rows 2905 of cedar 730 pillars 5982, with cedar 730 beams 3773 upon the pillars 5982.

7:3 And [it was] covered 5603 8803 with cedar 730 above 4605 upon the beams 6763, that [lay] on forty 705 five 2568 pillars 5982, fifteen 6240 [in] a row 2905.(beams: Heb. ribs)

7:4 And [there were] windows 8261 [in] three 7969 rows 2905, and light 4237 [was] against light 4237 [in] three 7969 ranks 6471.(light was…: Heb. sight against sight)

7:5 And all the doors 6607 and posts 4201 [were] square 7251 8803, with the windows 8260: and light 4237 [was] against 4136 light 4237 [in] three 7969 ranks 6471.(doors…: or, spaces and pillars were square in prospect)

7:6 And he made 6213 8804 a porch 197 of pillars 5982; the length 753 thereof [was] fifty 2572 cubits 520, and the breadth 7341 thereof thirty 7970 cubits 520: and the porch 197 [was] before 6440 them: and the [other] pillars 5982 and the thick beam 5646 [were] before them.(before them: or, according to them)

7:7 Then he made 6213 8804 a porch 197 for the throne 3678 where he might judge 8199 8799, [even] the porch 197 of judgment 4941: and [it was] covered 5603 8803 with cedar 730 from one side of the floor 7172 to the other 7172.(from…: Heb. from floor to floor)

7:8 And his house 1004 where he dwelt 3427 8799 [had] another 312 court 2691 within 1004 the porch 197, [which] was of the like work 4639. Solomon 8010 made 6213 8799 also an house 1004 for Pharaoh's 6547 daughter 1323, whom he had taken 3947 8804 [to wife], like unto this porch 197.

7:9 All these [were of] costly 3368 stones 68, according to the measures 4060 of hewed stones 1496, sawed 1641 8775 with saws 4050, within 1004 and without 2351, even from the foundation 4527 unto the coping 2947, and [so] on the outside 2351 toward the great 1419 court 2691.

7:10 And the foundation 3245 8794 [was of] costly 3368 stones 68, even great 1419 stones 68, stones 68 of ten 6235 cubits 520, and stones 68 of eight 8083 cubits 520.

7:11 And above 4605 [were] costly 3368 stones 68, after the measures 4060 of hewed stones 1496, and cedars 730.

7:12 And the great 1419 court 2691 round about 5439 [was] with three 7969 rows 2905 of hewed stones 1496, and a row 2905 of cedar 730 beams 3773, both for the inner 6442 court 2691 of the house 1004 of the LORD 3068, and for the porch 197 of the house 1004.

7:13 And king 4428 Solomon 8010 sent 7971 8799 and fetched 3947 8799 Hiram 2438 out of Tyre 6865.

7:14 He [was] a widow's 802 490 son 1121 of the tribe 4294 of Naphtali 5321, and his father 1 [was] a man 376 of Tyre 6876, a worker 2790 8802 in brass 5178: and he was filled 4390 8735 with wisdom 2451, and understanding 8394, and cunning 1847 to work 6213 8800 all works 4399 in brass 5178. And he came 935 8799 to king 4428 Solomon 8010, and wrought 6213 8799 all his work 4399.(a widow's…: Heb. the son of a widow woman)

7:15 For he cast 6696 8799 two 8147 pillars 5982 of brass 5178, of eighteen 8083 6240 cubits 520 high 6967 apiece 5982 259: and a line 2339 of twelve 8147 6240 cubits 520 did compass 5437 0 either 8145 of them about 5437 8799.(cast: Heb. fashioned)

7:16 And he made 6213 8804 two 8147 chapiters 3805 [of] molten 3332 8716 brass 5178, to set 5414 8800 upon the tops 7218 of the pillars 5982: the height 6967 of the one 259 chapiter 3805 [was] five 2568 cubits 520, and the height 6967 of the other 8145 chapiter 3805 [was] five 2568 cubits 520:

7:17 [And] nets 7638 of checker 7639 work 4639, and wreaths 1434 of chain 8333 work 4639, for the chapiters 3805 which [were] upon the top 7218 of the pillars 5982; seven 7651 for the one 259 chapiter 3805, and seven 7651 for the other 8145 chapiter 3805.

7:18 And he made 6213 8799 the pillars 5982, and two 8147 rows 2905 round about 5439 upon the one 259 network 7639, to cover 3680 8763 the chapiters 3805 that [were] upon the top 7218, with pomegranates 7416: and so did 6213 8804 he for the other 8145 chapiter 3805.

7:19 And the chapiters 3805 that [were] upon the top 7218 of the pillars 5982 [were] of lily 7799 work 4639 in the porch 197, four 702 cubits 520.

7:20 And the chapiters 3805 upon the two 8147 pillars 5982 [had pomegranates] also above 4605, over against 5980 the belly 990 which [was] by 5676 the network 7639: and the pomegranates 7416 [were] two hundred 3967 in rows 2905 round about 5439 upon the other 8145 chapiter 3805.

7:21 And he set up 6965 8686 the pillars 5982 in the porch 197 of the temple 1964: and he set up 6965 8686 the right 3233 pillar 5982, and called 7121 8799 the name 8034 thereof Jachin 3199: and he set up 6965 8686 the left 8042 pillar 5982, and called 7121 8799 the name 8034 thereof Boaz 1162.(Jachin: that is, He shall establish)(Boaz: that is, In it is strength)

7:22 And upon the top 7218 of the pillars 5982 [was] lily 7799 work 4639: so was the work 4399 of the pillars 5982 finished 8552 8799.

7:23 And he made 6213 8799 a molten 3332 8716 sea 3220, ten 6235 cubits 520 from the one brim 8193 to the other 8193: [it was] round 5696 all about 5439, and his height 6967 [was] five 2568 cubits 520: and a line 6957 8675 6961 of thirty 7970 cubits 520 did compass 5437 8799 it round about 5439.(from…: Heb. from his brim to his brim)

7:24 And under the brim 8193 of it round about 5439 [there were] knops 6497 compassing 5437 8802 it, ten 6235 in a cubit 520, compassing 5362 8688 the sea 3220 round about 5439: the knops 6497 [were] cast 3333 in two 8147 rows 2905, when it was cast 3332 8803.

7:25 It stood 5975 8802 upon twelve 8147 6240 oxen 1241, three 7969 looking 6437 8802 toward the north 6828, and three 7969 looking 6437 8802 toward the west 3220, and three 7969 looking 6437 8802 toward the south 5045, and three 7969 looking 6437 8802 toward the east 4217: and the sea 3220 [was set] above 4605 upon them, and all their hinder parts 268 [were] inward 1004.

7:26 And it [was] an hand breadth 2947 thick 5672, and the brim 8193 thereof was wrought 4639 like the brim 8193 of a cup 3563, with flowers 6525 of lilies 7799: it contained 3557 8686 two thousand 505 baths 1324.

7:27 And he made 6213 8799 ten 6235 bases 4350 of brass 5178; four 702 cubits 520 [was] the length 753 of one 259 base 4350, and four 702 cubits 520 the breadth 7341 thereof, and three 7969 cubits 520 the height 6967 of it.

7:28 And the work 4639 of the bases 4350 [was] on this [manner]: they had borders 4526, and the borders 4526 [were] between the ledges 7948:

7:29 And on the borders 4526 that [were] between the ledges 7948 [were] lions 738, oxen 1241, and cherubims 3742: and upon the ledges 7948 [there was] a base 3653 above 4605: and beneath the lions 738 and oxen 1241 [were] certain additions 3914 made of thin 4174 work 4639.

7:30 And every 259 base 4350 had four 702 brasen 5178 wheels 212, and plates 5633 of brass 5178: and the four 702 corners 6471 thereof had undersetters 3802: under the laver 3595 [were] undersetters 3802 molten 3332 8803, at the side 5676 of every 376 addition 3914.

7:31 And the mouth 6310 of it within 1004 the chapiter 3805 and above 4605 [was] a cubit 520: but the mouth 6310 thereof [was] round 5696 [after] the work 4639 of the base 3653, a cubit 520 and an half 2677: and also upon the mouth 6310 of it [were] gravings 4734 with their borders 4526, foursquare 7251 8794, not round 5696.

7:32 And under 8478 the borders 4526 [were] four 702 wheels 212; and the axletrees 3027 of the wheels 212 [were joined] to the base 4350: and the height 6967 of a 259 wheel 212 [was] a cubit 520 and half 2677 a cubit 520.(joined…: Heb. in the base)

7:33 And the work 4639 of the wheels 212 [was] like the work 4639 of a chariot 4818 wheel 212: their axletrees 3027, and their naves 1354, and their felloes 2839, and their spokes 2840, [were] all molten 3332 8716.

7:34 And [there were] four 702 undersetters 3802 to the four 702 corners 6438 of one 259 base 4350: [and] the undersetters 3802 [were] of the very base 4350 itself.

7:35 And in the top 7218 of the base 4350 [was there] a round 5696 compass 5439 of half 2677 a cubit 520 high 6967: and on the top 7218 of the base 4350 the ledges 3027 thereof and the borders 4526 thereof [were] of the same.

7:36 For on the plates 3871 of the ledges 3027 thereof, and on the borders 4526 thereof, he graved 6605 8762 cherubims 3742, lions 738, and palm trees 8561, according to the proportion 4626 of every one 376, and additions 3914 round about 5439.(proportion: Heb. nakedness)

7:37 After this [manner] he made 6213 8804 the ten 6235 bases 4350: all of them had one 259 casting 4165, one 259 measure 4060, [and] one 259 size 7095.

7:38 Then made 6213 8799 he ten 6235 lavers 3595 of brass 5178: one 259 laver 3595 contained 3557 8686 forty 705 baths 1324: [and] every 259 laver 3595 was four 702 cubits 520: [and] upon every one 259 of the ten 6235 bases 4350 one 259 laver 3595.

7:39 And he put 5414 8799 five 2568 bases 4350 on the right 3225 side 3802 of the house 1004, and five 2568 on the left 8040 side 3802 of the house 1004: and he set 5414 8804 the sea 3220 on the right 3233 side 3802 of the house 1004 eastward 6924 over against 4136 the south 5045.(side: Heb. shoulder)

7:40 And Hiram 2438 made 6213 8799 the lavers 3595, and the shovels 3257, and the basons 4219. So Hiram 2438 made 3615 8762 an end of doing 6213 8800 all the work 4399 that he made 6213 8804 king 4428 Solomon 8010 for the house 1004 of the LORD 3068:(And Hiram: Heb. And Hirom)

7:41 The two 8147 pillars 5982, and the [two] bowls 1543 of the chapiters 3805 that [were] on the top 7218 of the two 8147 pillars 5982; and the two 8147 networks 7639, to cover 3680 8763 the two 8147 bowls 1543 of the chapiters 3805 which [were] upon the top 7218 of the pillars 5982;

7:42 And four 702 hundred 3967 pomegranates 7416 for the two 8147 networks 7639, [even] two 8147 rows 2905 of pomegranates 7416 for one 259 network 7639, to cover 3680 8763 the two 8147 bowls 1543 of the chapiters 3805 that [were] upon 6440 the pillars 5982;(upon…: Heb. upon the face of the pillars)

7:43 And the ten 6235 bases 4350, and ten 6235 lavers 3595 on the bases 4350;

7:44 And one 259 sea 3220, and twelve 8147 6240 oxen 1241 under the sea 3220;

7:45 And the pots 5518, and the shovels 3257, and the basons 4219: and all these vessels 3627, which Hiram 2438 made 6213 8804 to king 4428 Solomon 8010 for the house 1004 of the LORD 3068, [were of] bright 4178 8794 brass 5178.(bright: Heb. made bright or, scoured)

7:46 In the plain 3603 of Jordan 3383 did the king 4428 cast 3332 8804 them, in the clay 4568 ground 127 between Succoth 5523 and Zarthan 6891.(in…: Heb. in the thickness of the ground)

7:47 And Solomon 8010 left 3240 8686 all the vessels 3627 [unweighed], because they were exceeding 3966 3966 many 7230: neither was the weight 4948 of the brass 5178 found out 2713 8738.(because…: Heb. for the exceeding multitude)(found: Heb. searched)

7:48 And Solomon 8010 made 6213 8799 all the vessels 3627 that [pertained] unto the house 1004 of the LORD 3068: the altar 4196 of gold 2091, and the table 7979 of gold 2091, whereupon the shewbread 3899 6440 [was],

7:49 And the candlesticks 4501 of pure 5462 8803 gold 2091, five 2568 on the right 3225 [side], and five 2568 on the left 8040, before 6440 the oracle 1687, with the flowers 6525, and the lamps 5216, and the tongs 4457 [of] gold 2091,

7:50 And the bowls 5592, and the snuffers 4212, and the basons 4219, and the spoons 3709, and the censers 4289 [of] pure 5462 8803 gold 2091; and the hinges 6596 [of] gold 2091, [both] for the doors 1817 of the inner 6442 house 1004, the most 6944 holy 6944 [place, and] for the doors 1817 of the house 1004, [to wit], of the temple 1964.(censers: Heb. ash pans)

7:51 So was ended 7999 8799 all the work 4399 that king 4428 Solomon 8010 made 6213 8804 for the house 1004 of the LORD 3068. And Solomon 8010 brought in 935 8686 the things which David 1732 his father 1 had dedicated 6944; [even] the silver 3701, and the gold 2091, and the vessels 3627, did he put 5414 8804 among the treasures 214 of the house 1004 of the LORD 3068.(things…: Heb. holy things of David)
