19. And he prepared the Speaking Place in the midst of the House, to place the ark of the covenant of יהוה there.
20. And the front of the Speaking Place was twenty cubits long, and twenty cubits wide, and twenty cubits high. And he overlaid it with refined gold, and overlaid the altar of cedar.
21. And Shelomoh overlaid the inside of the House with refined gold, and made gold chains pass over the front of the Speaking Place, and overlaid it with gold.
22. Thus he overlaid the entire House with gold, until the entire House was completed. And the entire altar that was by the Speaking Place he overlaid with gold.
23. And inside the Speaking Place he made two keruḇim of olive wood, ten cubits high.
24. And one wing of the keruḇ was five cubits, and the other wing of the keruḇ five cubits – ten cubits from the tip of one wing to the tip of the other.
25. And the other keruḇ was ten cubits. Both keruḇim were of the same size and shape.
