[7]And the porch of the throne where he judgeth -- the porch of judgment -- he hath made, and [it is] covered with cedar from the floor unto the floor. [7]Then he made a porch for the throne, where he judged, even a porch of judgment, and it was sealed with cedar from pavement to pavement.
[8]As to his house where he dwelleth, the other court [is] within the porch -- as this work it hath been; and a house he maketh for the daughter of Pharaoh -- whom Solomon hath taken -- like this porch. [8]And in his house, where he dwelt, was another hall more inward than the porch which was of the same work. Also Solomon made an house for Pharaoh's daughter (whom he had taken to wife) like unto this porch.
[9]All these [are] of precious stone, according to the measures of hewn work, sawn with a saw, within and without, even from the foundation unto the coping, and at the outside, unto the great court. [9]All these were of costly stones, hewed by measure, and sawed with saws within and without, from the foundation unto the stones of an hand breadth, and on the outside to the great court.
[10]And the foundation [is] of precious stone, great stones, stones of ten cubits, and stones of eight cubits; [10]And the foundation was of costly stones, and great stones, even of stones of ten cubits, and stones of eight cubits.
[11]and above [are] precious stone, according to the measures of hewn work, and cedar; [11]Above also were costly stones, squared by rule, and boards of cedar.

[13]And king Solomon sendeth and taketh Hiram out of Tyre -- [13]Then king Solomon sent, and set one Hiram out of Tyrus.
[14]he [is] son of a woman, a widow, of the tribe of Naphtali, and his father a man of Tyre, a worker in brass, and he is filled with the wisdom and the understanding, and the knowledge to do all work in brass -- and he cometh unto king Solomon, and doth all his work. [14]He was a widow's son of the tribe of Naphtali, his father being a man of Tyrus , and wrought in brass: he was full of wisdom, and understanding, and knowledge to work all manner of work in brass: who came to king Solomon, and wrought all his work.
[15]And he formeth the two pillars of brass; eighteen cubits [is] the height of the one pillar, and a cord of twelve cubits doth compass the second pillar. [15]For he cast two pillars of brass: the height of a pillar was eighteen cubits, and a thread of twelve cubits did compass either of the pillars.
[16]And two chapiters he hath made to put on the tops of the pillars, cast in brass; five cubits the height of the one chapiter, and five cubits the height of the second chapiter. [16]And he made two chapiters of molten brass to set on the tops of the pillars: the height of one of the chapiters was five cubits, and the height of the other chapiter was five cubits.
[17]Nets of net-work, wreaths of chain-work [are] for the chapiters that [are] on the top of the pillars, seven for the one chapiter, and seven for the second chapiter. [17]He made grates like network, and writhen work like chains for the chapiters that were on the top of the pillars, even seven for the one chapiter, and seven for the other chapiter.
[18]And he maketh the pillars, and two rows round about on the one net-work, to cover the chapiters that [are] on the top, with the pomegranates, and so he hath made for the second chapiter. [18]So he made the pillars and two rows of pomegranates round about in the one grate to cover the chapiters that were upon the top. And thus did he for the other chapiter.
[19]And the chapiters that [are] on the top of the pillars [are] of lily-work in the porch, four cubits; [19]And the chapiters that were on the top of the pillars were after lily work in the porch, four cubits.
[20]and the chapiters on the two pillars also above, over-against the protuberance that [is] beside the net; and the pomegranates [are] two hundred, in rows round about on the second chapiter. [20]And the chapiters upon the two pillars had also above, over against the belly within the network pomegranates: for two hundred pomegranates were in the two ranks about upon either of the chapiters.
[21]And he raiseth up the pillars for the porch of the temple, and he raiseth up the right pillar, and calleth its name Jachin, and he raiseth up the left pillar, and calleth its name Boaz; [21]And he set up the pillars in the porch of the temple. And when he had set up the right pillar, he called the name thereof Jachin: and when he had set up the left pillar, he called the name thereof Boaz.
[22]and on the top of the pillars [is] lily-work; and the work of the pillars [is] completed. [22]And upon the top of the pillars was work of lilies: so was the workmanship of the pillars finished.
[23]And he maketh the molten sea, ten by the cubit from its edge unto its edge; [it is] round all about, and five by the cubit [is] its height, and a line of thirty by the cubit doth compass it round about; [23]And he made a molten sea ten cubits wide from brim to brim, round in compass, and five cubits high, and a line of thirty cubits did compass it about.
[24]and knops beneath its brim round about are compassing it, ten by the cubit, going round the sea round about; in two rows [are] the knops, cast in its being cast. [24]And under the brim of it were knops like wild cucumbers compassing it round about, ten in one cubit, compassing the sea round about: and the two rows of knops were cast, when it was molten.
[25]It is standing on twelve oxen, three facing the north, and three facing the west, and three facing the south, and three facing the east, and the sea [is] upon them above, and all their hinder parts [are] inward. [25]It stood on twelve bulls, three looking toward the north, and three toward the west, and three toward the south, and three toward the east: and the sea stood above upon them, and all their hinder parts were inward.
[26]And its thickness [is] an handbreadth, and its edge as the work of the edge of a cup, flowers of lilies; two thousand baths it containeth. [26]It was an hand breadth thick, and the brim thereof was like the work of the brim of a cup with flowers of lilies: it contained two thousand baths.
[27]And he maketh the ten bases of brass; four by the cubit [is] the length of the one base, and four by the cubit its breadth, and three by the cubit its height. [27]And he made ten bases of brass, one base was four cubits long, and four cubits broad, and three cubits high.
[28]And this [is] the work of the base: they have borders, and the borders [are] between the joinings; [28]And the work of the bases was on this manner, They had borders, and the borders were between the ledges:
[29]and on the borders that [are] between the joinings [are] lions, oxen, and cherubs, and on the joinings a base above, and beneath the lions and the oxen [are] additions -- sloping work. [29]And on the borders that were between the ledges, were lions, bulls and cherubims: and upon the ledges there was a base above: and beneath the lions and bulls, were additions made of thin work.
[30]And four wheels of brass [are] to the one base, and axles of brass; and its four corners have shoulders -- under the laver [are] the molten shoulders, beside each addition. [30]And every base had four brazen wheels, and plates of brass: and the four corners had under setters: under the cauldron were under setters molten at the side of every addition.
[31]And its mouth within the chapiter and above [is] by the cubit, and its mouth [is] round, the work of the base, a cubit and half a cubit; and also on its mouth [are] carvings and their borders, square, not round. [31]And the mouth of it was within the chapiter and above to measure by the cubit: for the mouth thereof was round made like a base, and it was a cubit and half a cubit: and also upon the mouth thereof were graven works, whose borders were four square, and not round.
[32]And the four wheels [are] under the borders, and the spokes of the wheels [are] in the base, and the height of the one wheel [is] a cubit and half a cubit. [32]And under the borders were four wheels, and the axletrees of the wheels joined to the base: and the height of a wheel was a cubit and half a cubit.
[33]And the work of the wheels [is] as the work of the wheel of a chariot, their spokes, and their axles, and their felloes, and their naves; the whole [is] molten. [33]And the fashion of the wheels was like the fashion of a chariot wheel, their axletrees, and their naves and their felloes, and their spokes were all molten.
[34]And four shoulders [are] unto the four corners of the one base; out of the base [are] its shoulders. [34]And four under setters were upon the four corners of one base: and the under setters thereof were of the base itself.
[35]And in the top of the base [is] the half of a cubit in the height all round about; and on the top of the base its spokes and its borders [are] of the same. [35]And in the top of the base was a round compass of half a cubit high round about: and upon the top of the base the ledges thereof and the borders thereof were of the same.
[36]And he openeth on the tablets of its spokes, and on its borders, cherubs, lions, and palm-trees, according to the void space of each, and additions round about. [36]And upon the tables of the ledges thereof, and on the borders thereof he did grave cherubims, lions and palm trees, on the side of every one, and additions round about.
[37]Thus he hath made the ten bases; one casting, one measure, one form, have they all. [37]Thus made he the ten bases, They had all one casting, one measure , and one size.
[38]And he maketh ten lavers of brass; forty baths doth the one laver contain, four by the cubit [is] the one laver, one laver on the one base [is] to the ten bases; [38]Then made he ten cauldrons of brass, one cauldron contained forty baths: and every cauldron was four cubits, one cauldron was upon one base throughout the ten bases.
[39]and he putteth the five bases on the right side of the house, and five on the left side of the house, and the sea he hath put on the right side of the house, eastward -- over-against the south. [39]And he set the bases, five 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 toward the south.
[40]And Hiram maketh the lavers, and the shovels, and the bowls; and Hiram completeth to do all the work that he made for king Solomon, [for] the house of Jehovah; [40]And Hiram made cauldrons, and besoms, and basins, and Hiram finished all the work that he made to king Solomon for the house of the Lord:
[41]pillars two, and bowls of the chapiters that [are] on the top of the pillars two, and the nets two, to cover the two bowls of the chapiters that [are] on the top of the pillars; [41]To wit, two pillars and two bowls of the chapiters that were on the top of the two pillars, and two grates to cover the two bowls of the chapiters which were upon the top of the pillars,
[42]and the pomegranates four hundred for the two nets, two rows of pomegranates for the one net, to cover the two bowls of the chapiters that [are] on the front of the pillars; [42]And four hundred pomegranates for the two grates, even two rows of pomegranates for every grate to cover the two bowls of the chapiters, that were upon the pillars,
[43]and the ten bases, and the ten lavers on the bases; [43]And the ten bases, and ten cauldrons upon the bases,
[44]and the one sea, the twelve oxen under the sea, [44]And the sea, and twelve bulls under that sea,
[45]and the pots, and the shovels, and the bowls; and all these vessels, that Hiram hath made to king Solomon [for] the house of Jehovah, [are] of brass -- polished. [45]And pots, and besoms and basins: and all these vessels, which Hiram made to king Solomon for the house of the Lord, were of shining brass.
[46]In the circuit of the Jordan hath the king cast them, in the thick soil of the ground, between Succoth and Zarthan. [46]In the plain of Jordan did the king cast them in clay between Succoth and Zarthan.
[47]And Solomon placeth the whole of the vessels; because of the very great abundance, the weight of the brass hath not been searched out. [47]And Solomon left to weigh all the vessels because of the exceeding abundance, neither could the weight of the brass be counted.
[48]And Solomon maketh all the vessels that [are] in the house of Jehovah: the altar of gold, and the table -- on which [is] the bread of the Presence -- of gold, [48]So Solomon made all the vessels that pertained unto the house of the Lord, the golden altar, and the golden table, whereon the showbread was,
[49]and the candlesticks, five on the right, and five on the left, before the oracle, of refined gold, and the flowers, and the lamps, and the tongs, of gold, [49]And the candlesticks, five at the right side, and five at the left, before the oracle of pure gold, and the flowers, and the lamps, and the snuffers of gold,
[50]and the basins, and the snuffers, and the bowls, and the spoons, and the censers, of refined gold, and the hinges for the doors of the inner-house, for the holy of holies, for the doors of the house of the temple, of gold. [50]And the bowls, and the hooks, and the basins, and the spoons, and the ash pans of pure gold, and the hinges of gold for the doors of the house within, even for the most holy place, and for the doors of the house, to wit, of the temple.
[51]And it is complete -- all the work that king Solomon hath made [for] the house of Jehovah, and Solomon bringeth in the sanctified things of David his father; the silver, and the gold, and the vessels he hath put in the treasuries of the house of Jehovah. [51]So was finished 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: the silver and the gold and the vessels, and laid them among the treasures of the house of the Lord.
