2 And he began to build in the second [day] of the second month, in the fourth year of his reign.
3 Now these [are the things in which] Solomon was instructed for the building of the house of God. The length by cubits after the first measure [was] sixty cubits, and the breadth twenty cubits.
4 And the porch that [was] in the front [of the house], the length [of it was] according to the breadth of the house, twenty cubits, and the hight [was] a hundred and twenty: and he overlaid it within with pure gold.
5 And the greater house he cieled with fir tree, which he overlaid with fine gold, and set on it palm trees and chains.
6 And he garnished the house with precious stones for beauty: and the gold [was] gold of Parvaim.
