Καὶ ἤρξατο Σαλωμὼν τοῦ οἰκοδομεῖν τὸν οἶκον Κυρίου ἐν Ἰερουσαλὴμ ἐν ὄρει τοῦ Ἀμορειά, ο ὤφθη Κύριος τῷ Δαυεὶδ πατρὶ αὐτοῦ, ἐν τῷ τόπῳ ᾧ ἡτοίμασεν Δαυεὶδ ἐν ἄλῳ Φρνὰ τοῦ Ἰεβουσαίου.

καὶ ἤρξατο οἰκοδομὴ ἐν τῷ μηνὶ τῷ δευτέρῳ ἐν τῷ ἔτει τῷ τετάρτῳ τῆς βασιλείας αὐτοῦ.

Καὶ ταῦτα ἤρξατο Σαλωμὼν τοῦ οἰκοδομῆσαι τὸν οἶκον τοῦ θεοῦ· μῆκος πήχεων ἡ διαμέτρησις ἡ πρώτη πήχεων ἑξήκοντα, καὶ εὗρος πήχεων εἴκοσι.

καὶ αἰλὰμ κατὰ πρόσωπον τοῦ οἴκου, μῆκος ἐπὶ πρόσωπον πλάτος τοῦ οἴκου πήχεων εἴκοσι, καὶ ὕψος πήχεαων ἑκατὸν εἴκοσι· καὶ κατεχρύσωσεν αὐτὸν ἔσωθεν χρυσίῳ καθαρῷ.

καὶ τὸν οἶκον τὸν μέγαν ἐξύλωσεν ξύλοις κεδρίνοις, καὶ κατεχρύσωσεν χρυσίῳ καθαρῷ, καὶ ἔγλυψεν ἐπʼ αὐτοῦ φοίνικας καὶ χαλαστά.

καὶ ἐκόσμησεν τὸν οἶκον λίθοις τιμίοις εἰς δόξαν, καὶ χρυσίῳ χρυσίου τοῦ ἐκ Φαρουάιμ,

καὶ ἐχρύσωσεν οἶκον καὶ τοὺς τοίχους καὶ τοὺς πυλῶνας καὶ τὰ ὀροφώματα καὶ τὰ θυρώματα χρυσίῳ, καὶ ἔγλυψεν χερουβεὶν ἐπὶ τῶν τοίχων.

καὶ ἐποίησεν τὸν οἶκον τοῦ ἁγίου τῶν ἁγίων, μῆκος αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ πρόσαοπον, πλάτος πήχεων εἴκοσι, καὶ τὸ μῆκος πήχεων εἴκοσι, καὶ ἐχρύσαοσεναὐτὸν χρυσίῳ καθαρῷ εἰς χερουβεὶν εἰς τάλαντα ἑξακόσια.

καὶ ὁλκὴ τῶν ἥλων, ὁλκὴ τοῦ ἑνὸς πεντήκοντα σίκλοι χρυσίου· καὶ τὸ ὑπερῷον ἐχρύσωσεν χρυσίῳ.

καὶ ἐποίησεν ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ τῷ ἁγίῳ τῶν ἁγίων χερουβεὶν δύο, ἔργον ἐκ ξύλων, καὶ ἐχρύσωσεν αὐτὰ χρυσίῳ.

καὶ αἱ πτέρυγες τῶν χερουβεὶν τὸ μῆκος πήχεων εἵκοσι,
¹² καὶ ἡ μία πτέρυξ πήχεων πέντε ἁπτομένη τοῦ τοίχου τοῦ οἴκου, καὶ ἡ ³ πτέρυξ ἡ ἑτέρα πήχεον πέντε ἁπτομένη τῆς πτέρυγος τοῦ χερουβεὶν τοῦ ἑτέρου.

καὶ αἱπτέρυγες τῶν χερουβεὶν διαπεπετασμέναι πήχεων εἴκοσι, καὶ αὐτὰ ἑστηκότα ἐπὶ τοὺς πόδας αὐτῶν, καὶ τὰ πρόσαωπα αὐτῶν εἰς τὸν οἶκον.

καὶ ἐποίησεν τὸ καταπέτασμα ὑακίνθου καὶ πορφύρας καὶ κοκκίνου καὶ βύσσου, καὶ ὕφανεν ἐν αὐτῷ χερουβείν.

καὶ ἐποίησεν ἔμπροσθεν τοῦ τοίχου στύλους δύο, πήχεων τριάκοντα πέντε τὸ ὕψος, καὶ τὰς κεφαλὰς αὐτῶν πήχεων πέντε.

καὶ ἐποίησεν σερσερὼθ ἐν τῷ δαβεὶρ καὶ ἔδωκεν ἐπὶ τῶν κεφαλῶν τῶν στύλων, καὶ ἐποίησεν ῥοίσκους ἑκατὸν καὶ ἐπέθηκεν ἐπὶ τῶν χαλαστῶν.

καὶ ἔστησεν τοὺς στύλους κατὰ πρόσωπον τοῦ ναοῦ, ἕνα ἐκ δεξιῶν καὶ τὸν ἕνα ἐξ εὐωνύμαων, καὶ ἐκάλεσεν τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ ἐκ δεξιῶν Κατόρθωσις, καὶ τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ ἐξ ἀριστερῶν Ἰσχύς.

II Chronicles Perseus (World English Bible. Revision of the American Standard Version of 1901. Rainbow Missions, Inc., 2000-2024.) — 3 focus

Then Solomon began to build the house of Yahweh at Jerusalem on Mount Moriah, where [Yahweh] appeared to David his father, which he made ready in the place that David had appointed, in the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite.

He began to build in the second [day] of the second month, in the fourth year of his reign.

Now these are the foundations which Solomon laid for the building of the house of God. The length by cubits after the first measure was sixty cubits, and the breadth twenty cubits.

The porch that was before [the house], the length of it, according to the breadth of the house, was twenty cubits, and the height one hundred twenty; and he overlaid it within with pure gold.

The greater house he made a ceiling with fir-wood, which he overlaid with fine gold, and worked thereon palm trees and chains.

He garnished the house with precious stones for beauty: and the gold was gold of Parvaim.

He overlaid also the house, the beams, the thresholds, and the walls of it, and the doors of it, with gold; and engraved cherubim on the walls.

He made the most holy house: the length of it, according to the breadth of the house, was twenty cubits, and the breadth of it twenty cubits; and he overlaid it with fine gold, amounting to six hundred talents.

The weight of the nails was fifty shekels of gold. He overlaid the upper chambers with gold.

In the most holy house he made two cherubim of image work; and they overlaid them with gold.

The wings of the cherubim were twenty cubits long: the wing of the one [cherub] was five cubits, reaching to the wall of the house; and the other wing was [likewise] five cubits, reaching to the wing of the other cherub.

The wing of the other cherub was five cubits, reaching to the wall of the house; and the other wing was five cubits [also], joining to the wing of the other cherub.

The wings of these cherubim spread themselves forth twenty cubits: and they stood on their feet, and their faces were toward the house.

He made the veil of blue, and purple, and crimson, and fine linen, and worked cherubim thereon.

Also he made before the house two pillars of thirty-five cubits high, and the capital that was on the top of each of them was five cubits.

He made chains in the oracle, and put [them] on the tops of the pillars; and he made one hundred pomegranates, and put them on the chains.

He set up the pillars before the temple, one on the right hand, and the other on the left; and called the name of that on the right hand Jachin, and the name of that on the left Boaz.
