pillars,
5982
with cedar
730

3773
upon

the pillars.
5982

And [it was] covered
5603
z8803
with cedar
730
above
4605
x4480
upon
x5921
the beams,
6763

7:6 ¶
And he made
6213
z8804
a porch
197
of pillars;
5982
the length
753
thereof [was] fifty
2572
cubits,
520
and the breadth

x5921
them: and the [other] pillars
5982
and the thick beam
5646
[were] before
x5921
x6440
them.

7:7 ¶
Then he made
6213
z8804
a porch
197
for the throne
3678
where
x834
x8033
he might judge,
8199
z8799
[even] the porch
197
of judgment:
4941
and [it was] covered
5603
z8803
with cedar
730
from one side of the floor
7172
x4480
to
x5704
the other.
7172

7:8 ¶
And his house
1004
where
x834
x8033
he dwelt
3427
z8799
[had] another
312
court
2691
within
1004
x4480
the porch,
197
[which] was
x1961
of the like
x2088
work.
4639
Solomon
8010
made
6213
z8799
also an house
1004
for Pharaoh's
6547
daughter,
1323
whom
x834
he had taken
3947
z8804
[to wife], like unto this
x2088
porch.
197

7:9
All
x3605
these
x428
[were of] costly
3368
stones,
68
according to the measures
4060
of hewed stones,
1496
sawed
1641
z8775
with saws,
4050
within
1004
x4480
and without,
2351
x4480
even from the foundation
4527
x4480
unto
x5704
the coping,
y2947
x2948
and [so] on the outside
2351
x4480
toward
x5704
the great
1419
court.
2691

7:10
And the foundation
3245
z8794
[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
x4480
[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
z8799
and fetched
3947
z8799
x853
Hiram
2438
out of Tyre.
6865
x4480

7:14
He
x1931
[was] a widow's
490
y802
son
1121
of the tribe
4294
x4480
of Naphtali,
5321
and his father
1
[was] a man
376
of Tyre,
6876
a worker
2790
z8802
in brass:
5178
and he was filled
4390
z8735
with
x854
wisdom,
2451
and understanding,
8394
and cunning
1847
to work
6213
z8800
all
x3605
works
4399
in brass.
5178
And he came
935
z8799
to
x413
king
4428
Solomon,
8010
and wrought
6213
z8799
x853
all
x3605
his work.
4399

7:15
For he cast
6696
z8799
x853
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
y5437
z0
either
y8145
of them about.
5437
z8799
x853
x5982
x8145

7:16
And he made
6213
z8804
two
8147
chapiters
3805
[of] molten
3332
z8716
brass,
5178
to set
5414
z8800
upon
x5921
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
x834
[were] upon
x5921
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
z8799
x853
the pillars,
5982
and two
8147
rows
2905
round about
5439
upon
x5921
the one
259
network,
7639
to cover
3680
z8763
x853
the chapiters
3805
that
x834
[were] upon
x5921
the top,
7218
with pomegranates:
7416
and so
x3651
did
6213
z8804
he for the other
8145
chapiter.
3805

7:19
And the chapiters
3805
that
x834
[were] upon
x5921
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
x5921
the two
8147
pillars
5982
[had pomegranates] also
x1571
above,
4605
x4480
over against
5980
x4480
the belly
990
which
x834
[was] by
5676
the network:
7639
and the pomegranates
7416
[were] two hundred
3967
in rows
2905
round about
5439
upon
x5921
the other
8145
chapiter.
3805

7:21
And he set up
6965
z8686
x853
the pillars
5982
in the porch
197
of the temple:
1964
and he set up
6965
z8686
the right
3233
x853
pillar,
5982
and called
7121
z8799
x853
the name
8034
thereof Jachin:
3199
and he set up
6965
z8686
x853
the left
8042
pillar,
5982
and called
7121
z8799
x853
the name
8034
thereof Boaz.
1162

7:22
And upon
x5921
the top
7218
of the pillars
5982
[was] lily
7799
work:
4639
so was the work
4399
of the pillars
5982
finished.
8552
z8799

7:23 ¶
And he made
6213
z8799
x853
a molten
3332
z8716
sea,
3220
ten
6235
cubits
520
from the one brim
8193
x4480
to
x5704
the other:
8193
[it was] round
5696
all about,
5439
and his height
6967
[was] five
2568
cubits:
520
and a line
6957
z8675
y6961
of thirty
7970
cubits
520
did compass
5437
z8799
it round about.
5439

7:24
And under
x4480
x8478
the brim
8193
of it round about
5439
[there were] knops
6497
compassing
5437
z8802
it, ten
6235
in a cubit,
520
compassing
5362
z8688
x853
the sea
3220
round about:
5439
the knops
6497
[were] cast
y3333
x3332
in two
8147
rows,
2905
when it was cast.
y3332
z8803
x3333

7:25
It stood
5975
z8802
upon
x5921
twelve
8147
6240
oxen,
1241
three
7969
looking
6437
z8802
toward the north,
6828
and three
7969
looking
6437
z8802
toward the west,
3220
and three
7969
looking
6437
z8802
toward the south,
5045
and three
7969
looking
6437
z8802
toward the east:
4217
and the sea
3220
[was set] above
4605
x4480
upon
x5921
them, and all
x3605
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
z8686
two thousand
505
baths.
1324

7:27 ¶
And he made
6213
z8799
x853
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
x2088
[manner]: they had borders,
4526
and the borders
4526
[were] between
x996
the ledges:
7948

7:29
And on
x5921
the borders
4526
that
x834
[were] between
x996
the ledges
7948
[were] lions,
738
oxen,
1241
and cherubims:
3742
and upon
x5921
the ledges
7948
[there was] a base
3653
above:
4605
x4480
and beneath
x4480
x8478
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
x4480
x8478
the laver
3595
[were] undersetters
3802
molten,
3332
z8803
at the side
5676
x4480
of every
376
addition.
3914

7:31
And the mouth
6310
of it within
1004
x4480
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
x520
and also
x1571
upon
x5921
the mouth
6310
of it [were] gravings
4734
with their borders,
4526
foursquare,
7251
z8794
not
x3808
round.
5696

7:32
And under
8478
x4480
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

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
x3605
molten.
3332
z8716

7:34
And [there were] four
702
undersetters
3802
to
x413
the four
702
corners
6438
of one
259
base:
4350
[and] the undersetters
3802
[were] of
x4480
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
x5921
the top
7218
of the base
4350
the ledges
3027
thereof and the borders
4526
thereof [were] of
x4480
the same.

7:36
For on
x5921
the plates
3871
of the ledges
3027
thereof, and on
x5921
the borders
4526
thereof, he graved
6605
z8762
cherubims,
3742
lions,
738
and palm trees,
8561
according to the proportion
4626
of every one,
376
and additions
3914
round about.
5439

7:37
After this
x2063
[manner] he made
6213
z8804
x853
the ten
6235
bases:
4350
all
x3605
of them had one
259
casting,
4165
one
259
measure,
4060
[and] one
259
size.
7095

7:38 ¶
Then made
6213
z8799
he ten
6235
lavers
3595
of brass:
5178
one
259
laver
3595
contained
3557
z8686
forty
705
baths:
1324
[and] every
259
laver
3595
was four
702
cubits:
520
[and] upon
x5921
every one
259
of the ten
6235
bases
4350
one
259
laver.
3595

7:39
And he put
5414
z8799
x853
five
2568
bases
4350
on
x5921
the right
3225
x4480
side
3802
of the house,
1004
and five
2568
on
x5921
the left
8040
x4480
side
3802
of the house:
1004
and he set
5414
z8804
the sea
3220
on the right
3233
side
3802
x4480
of the house
1004
eastward
6924
over against
4136
x4480
the south.
5045

7:40 ¶
And Hiram
2438
made
6213
z8799
x853
the lavers,
3595
and the shovels,
3257
and the basons.
4219
So Hiram
2438
made
y3615
z8762
an end
x3615
of doing
6213
z8800
x853
all
x3605
the work
4399
that
x834
he made
6213
z8804
king
4428
Solomon
8010
for the house
1004
of the LORD:
3068

7:41
The two
8147
pillars,
5982
and the [two] bowls
1543
of the chapiters
3805
that
x834
[were] on
x5921
the top
7218
of the two
8147
pillars;
5982
and the two
8147
networks,
7639
to cover
3680
z8763
x853
the two
8147
bowls
1543
of the chapiters
3805
which
x834
[were] upon
x5921
the top
7218
of the pillars;
5982

7:42
And four
702
hundred
3967
pomegranates
7416
for the two
8147
