1. But Solomon was building his own house thirteen years, and he finished all his house.
2. He built also the house of the forest of Lebanon; its length was a hundred cubits, and its breadth fifty cubits, and its hight thirty cubits, upon four rows of cedar pillars, with cedar beams upon the pillars.
3. And it was covered with cedar above upon the beams, that lay on forty-five pillars, fifteen in a row.
4. And there were windows in three rows, and light was against light in three ranks.
5. And all the doors and posts were square, with the windows: and light was against light in three ranks.
6. And he made a porch of pillars; its length was fifty cubits, and its breadth thirty cubits: and the porch was before them: and the other pillars and the thick beams were before them.
7. Then he made a porch for the throne where he might judge, even the porch of judgment: and it was covered with cedar from one side of the floor to the other.
8. And his house where he dwelt had another court within the porch, which was of the like work. Solomon made also a house for Pharaoh's daughter, whom he had married, like to this porch.
