9. So he built the house and finished it and covered the house with work of cedar placed in order.
10. And then he built the wing against all the house, five cubits high; and they rested on the house with timber of cedar.
11. And the word of the Lord came to Solomon, saying,
12. Concerning this house which thou art building, if thou wilt walk in my statutes and execute my rights and keep all my commandments to walk in them, then I will perform my word with thee, which I spoke unto David thy father;
13. and I will dwell among the sons of Israel and will not forsake my people Israel.
14. So Solomon built the house and finished it.
15. And he built the walls of the house within with boards of cedar, both the floor of the house and the walls of the ceiling; and he covered them on the inside with wood and covered the floor of the house with planks of fir.
16. And he built twenty cubits on the end of the house, both the floor and the walls with boards of cedar; and he built an oracle in the house, which is the holy of holies.
17. And the house, that is, the temple before it, was forty cubits long.
18. And the cedar of the house within was carved with wild gourds and open flowers. All was cedar; no stone was seen.
19. And he prepared the oracle in the house within, to set there the ark of the covenant of the Lord.
20. And the oracle in the forepart was twenty cubits in length and twenty cubits wide and twenty cubits high, and he overlaid it with pure gold and likewise covered the altar which was of cedar.
21. So Solomon overlaid the house within with pure gold, and he closed the door of the oracle with chains of gold, and he overlaid it with gold.
