* Then Solomon began to build the house of the LORD at Jerusalem in mount Moriah , where the LORD appeared unto David his father , in the place that David had prepared in the threshingfloor of Ornan the Jebusite . * And he began to build in the second day of the second month , in the fourth year of his reign . * Now these are the things wherein Solomon was instructed for the building of the house of God . The length by cubits after the first measure was threescore cubits , and the breadth twenty cubits . * 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 height was an hundred and twenty : and he overlaid it within with pure gold . * And the greater house he cieled with fir tree , which he overlaid with fine gold , and set thereon palm trees and chains . * And he garnished the house with precious stones for beauty : and the gold was gold of Parvaim . * He overlaid also the house , the beams , the posts , and the walls thereof , and the doors thereof , with gold ; and graved cherubims on the walls . * And he made the most holy house , the length whereof was according to the breadth of the house , twenty cubits , and the breadth thereof twenty cubits : and he overlaid it with fine gold , amounting to six hundred talents . * And the weight of the nails was fifty shekels of gold . And he overlaid the upper chambers with gold . * And in the most holy house he made two cherubims of image work , and overlaid them with gold . * And the wings of the cherubims were twenty cubits long : one wing of the one cherub was five cubits , reaching to the wall of the house : and the other wing was likewise five cubits , reaching to the wing of the other cherub . * And one wing of the other cherub was five cubits , reaching to the wall of the house : and the other wing was five cubits also , joining to the wing of the other cherub .
