1 Kin 7:1 Now Solomon was building his own house thirteen years, and he finished all his house.
1 Kin 7:2 He built the house of the forest of Lebanon; its length was 100 cubits and its width 50 cubits and its height 30 cubits, on four rows of cedar pillars with cedar beams on the pillars.
1 Kin 7:3 It was paneled with cedar above the side chambers which were on the 45 pillars, 15 in each row.
1 Kin 7:4There were artistic window frames in three rows, and window was opposite window in three ranks.
1 Kin 7:5 All the doorways and doorposts had squared artistic frames, and window was opposite window in three ranks.
1 Kin 7:6 ¶ Then he made the hall of pillars; its length was 50 cubits and its width 30 cubits, and a porch was in front of them and pillars and a threshold in front of them.
1 Kin 7:7 ¶ He made the hall of the throne where he was to judge, the hall of judgment, and it was paneled with cedar from floor to floor.
1 Kin 7:8 ¶ His house where he was to live, the other court inward from the hall, was of the same workmanship. He also made a house like this hall for Pharaoh's daughter, whom Solomon had married.
1 Kin 7:9 ¶ All these were of costly stones, of stone cut according to measure, sawed with saws, inside and outside; even from the foundation to the coping, and so on the outside to the great court.
1 Kin 7:10 ¶ The foundation was of costly stones, even large stones, stones of ten cubits and stones of eight cubits.
1 Kin 7:11 And above were costly stones, stone cut according to measure, and cedar.
1 Kin 7:12 So the great court all around had three rows of cut stone and a row of cedar beams even as the inner court of the house of the LORD, and the porch of the house.
1 Kin 7:13 ¶ Now King Solomon sent and brought Hiram from Tyre.
1 Kin 7:14 He was a widow's son from the tribe of Naphtali, and his father was a man of Tyre, a worker in bronze; and he was filled with wisdom and understanding and skill for doing any work in bronze. So he came to King Solomon and performed all his work.
1 Kin 7:15 ¶ He fashioned the two pillars of bronze; eighteen cubits was the height of one pillar, and a line of twelve cubits measured the circumference of both.
1 Kin 7:16 He also made two capitals of molten bronze to set on the tops of the pillars; the height of the one capital was five cubits and the height of the other capital was five cubits.
1 Kin 7:17There were nets of network and twisted threads of chainwork for the capitals which were on the top of the pillars; seven for the one capital and seven for the other capital.
1 Kin 7:18 So he made the pillars, and two rows around on the one network to cover the capitals which were on the top of the pomegranates; and so he did for the other capital.
1 Kin 7:19 The capitals which were on the top of the pillars in the porch were of lily design, four cubits.
1 Kin 7:20There were capitals on the two pillars, even above and close to the rounded projection which was beside the network; and the pomegranates numbered two hundred in rows around both capitals.
