6. And he made a porch of pillars of fifty cubits in length, and thirty cubits in breadth: and another porch before the greater porch: and pillars, and chapiters upon the pillars.

7. He made also the porch of the throne, wherein is the seat of judgment: and covered it with cedar wood from the floor to the top.

8. And in the midst of the porch, was a small house where he sat in judgment, of the like work. He made also a house for the daughter of Pharao (whom Solomon had taken to wife) of the same work, as this porch,

9. All of costly stones, which were sawed by a certain rule and measure both within and without: from the foundation to the top of the walls, and without unto the great court.

10. And the foundations were of costly stones, great stones of ten cubits or eight cubits:

11. And above there were costly stones, or equal measure, hewed; and, in like manner, planks of cedar:

12. And the greater court was made round with three rows of hewed stones, and one row of planks of cedar, moreover also in the inner court of the house of the Lord, and in the porch of the house.
