10. And he built the side rooms of the structure against all the House, each five cubits high, and they were fastened to the House with cedar beams.
11. And the word of יהוה came to Shelomoh, saying,
12. “This House which you are building – if you walk in My laws, and do My right-rulings, and shall guard all My commands and walk in them, then I shall confirm My word with you, which I spoke to your father Dawiḏ,
13. and shall dwell in the midst of the children of Yisra’ĕl, and not forsake My people Yisra’ĕl.”
14. So Shelomoh built the House and completed it.
15. And he built the walls of the House inside with cedar boards, from the floor of the House to the ceiling he panelled them on the inside with wood, and covered the floor of the House with planks of cypress.
16. And he built twenty cubits at the rear of the House, from floor to the walls, with cedar boards. And he built it inside as the Speaking Place, as the Most Set-apart Place.
17. And the House was forty cubits, it is the hĕḵal before it.
18. And the cedar for the House inside was carved with ornaments and open flowers; all was cedar, not a stone was seen.
19. And he prepared the Speaking Place in the midst of the House, to place the ark of the covenant of יהוה there.
