1 Kings 6:31-38 Amplified Bible (AMP)

31. For the Holy of Holies he made [folding] doors of olive wood; their entire width was one-fifth that of the wall.

32. On the two doors of olive wood he carved cherubim, palm trees, and open flowers; he overlaid them with gold, and spread gold on the cherubim and palm trees.

33. Also he made for the door of the Holy Place four-sided posts of olive wood.

34. The two doors were of cypress wood; the two leaves of each door were folding.

35. He carved on them cherubim, palm trees, and open flowers, covered with gold evenly applied on the carved work.

36. He built the inner court with three rows of hewn stone and a row of cedar beams.

37. In the fourth year the foundation of the Lord's house was laid, in the [second] month, Ziv.

38. In the eleventh year, in Bul, the eighth month, the house was finished throughout according to all its specifications. So he was seven years in building it.
