1 And Solomon will begin to build the house of Jehovah in Jerusalem in mount Moriah, which was seen to David his father in the place which David prepared in the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite. 2 And he will begin to build in the second month, in the second, and in the fourth year to his kingdom. 3 And these Solomon founded to build the house of God. The length of cubits in the first measure, sixty cubits, and the breadth twenty cubits. 4 And the porch which was upon the face of the length, upon the face of the breadth, twenty cubits, and its height, a hundred and twenty: and he will overlay it from within with pure gold. 5 And the great house he covered with woods of cypresses, and he will cover it with good gold, and he will bring up palm trees upon it and chains. 6 And he will overlay the house with precious stone for glory: and the gold, gold of Parvaim. 7 And he will cover the house, the beams, the thresholds, and its walls, and its doors, with gold; and he engraved Cherubims upon the walls. 2 Chronicles 3:1-7, Smith's Literal Translation.
