3 Salómon byrjaði á að byggja musteri Drottins í Jerúsalem á Móríafjalli, þar sem Drottinn hafði birst Davíð föður hans, á stað þeim, er Davíð hafði búið á þreskivelli Ornans Jebúsíta.
2 Og hann byrjaði að byggja á öðrum degi í öðrum mánuði á fjórða ríkisári sínu.
3 Og þessi var grundvöllurinn, er Salómon lagði að musterisbyggingu Guðs: Lengdin var sextíu álnir að fornu máli, og breiddin tuttugu álnir.
4 Og forsalurinn fyrir framan musterishúsið var tíu álnir á breidd, en tuttugu álnir á lengd fram með musterisendanum, og hundrað og tuttugu álnir á hæð, og hann lagði hann innan skíru gulli.
5 En stærra húsið þiljaði hann með kýpresborðum og lagði það fínu gulli og setti þar á pálma og festar.
6 Enn fremur bjó hann húsið dýrindis steinum til prýði, en gullið var Parvaímgull.
7 Og hann lagði húsið, bjálkana, þröskuldana, svo og veggi þess og hurðir gulli, og lét skera kerúba út á veggjunum.
8 Hann gjörði og Hið allrahelgasta. Var það tuttugu álnir á lengd, eins og musterið var á breiddina, og tuttugu álnir á breidd, og bjó það fínu gulli, sex hundruð talentum.
9 Og naglarnir vógu fimmtíu sikla gulls, og loftherbergin lagði hann og gulli.
10 En í Hinu allrahelgasta gjörði hann tvo kerúba, haglega skorna og lagði þá gulli.
11 Vængir kerúbanna voru báðir saman tíu álna langir. Annar vængur annars kerúbsins, fimm álna langur, nam húsvegginn, en hinn vængurinn, er og var fimm álnir á lengd, nam við væng hins kerúbsins.
12 Annar fimm álna langur vængur hins kerúbsins nam og húsvegginn, en hinn vængurinn, er og var fimm álnir á lengd, snart væng hins kerúbsins.
13 Voru vængir kerúba þessara tuttugu álnir, útbreiddir. Stóðu þeir á fótum sér, og sneru andlit þeirra að húsinu.
14 Og hann gjörði fortjaldið af bláum og rauðum purpura, skarlati og baðmull og gjörði kerúba á því.
15 Hann gjörði og tvær súlur, þrjátíu og fimm álna háar, fyrir framan húsið, en hnúðurinn, er efst var á hvorri, var fimm álnir.
16 Hann gjörði og festar og lét þær á súlnahöfuðin, þá gjörði hann hundrað granatepli og setti á festarnar.
17 Og hann reisti súlurnar fyrir framan aðalhúsið, aðra til hægri og hina til vinstri. Nefndi hann hægri súluna Jakín, en hina vinstri Bóas.

Solomon Builds the Temple(A)
3 Then Solomon began to build(B) the temple of the Lord(C) in Jerusalem on Mount Moriah, where the Lord had appeared to his father David. It was on the threshing floor of Araunah[a](D) the Jebusite, the place provided by David. 2 He began building on the second day of the second month in the fourth year of his reign.(E)
3 The foundation Solomon laid for building the temple of God was sixty cubits long and twenty cubits wide[b](F) (using the cubit of the old standard). 4 The portico at the front of the temple was twenty cubits[c] long across the width of the building and twenty[d] cubits high.
He overlaid the inside with pure gold. 5 He paneled the main hall with juniper and covered it with fine gold and decorated it with palm tree(G) and chain designs. 6 He adorned the temple with precious stones. And the gold he used was gold of Parvaim. 7 He overlaid the ceiling beams, doorframes, walls and doors of the temple with gold, and he carved cherubim(H) on the walls.
8 He built the Most Holy Place,(I) its length corresponding to the width of the temple—twenty cubits long and twenty cubits wide. He overlaid the inside with six hundred talents[e] of fine gold. 9 The gold nails(J) weighed fifty shekels.[f] He also overlaid the upper parts with gold.
10 For the Most Holy Place he made a pair(K) of sculptured cherubim and overlaid them with gold. 11 The total wingspan of the cherubim was twenty cubits. One wing of the first cherub was five cubits[g] long and touched the temple wall, while its other wing, also five cubits long, touched the wing of the other cherub. 12 Similarly one wing of the second cherub was five cubits long and touched the other temple wall, and its other wing, also five cubits long, touched the wing of the first cherub. 13 The wings of these cherubim(L) extended twenty cubits. They stood on their feet, facing the main hall.[h]
14 He made the curtain(M) of blue, purple and crimson yarn and fine linen, with cherubim(N) worked into it.
15 For the front of the temple he made two pillars,(O) which together were thirty-five cubits[i] long, each with a capital(P) five cubits high. 16 He made interwoven chains[j](Q) and put them on top of the pillars. He also made a hundred pomegranates(R) and attached them to the chains. 17 He erected the pillars in the front of the temple, one to the south and one to the north. The one to the south he named Jakin[k] and the one to the north Boaz.[l]
