1 Kings 6:5-7
English Standard Version Anglicised
5 (A)He also built a structure[a] against the wall of the house, running round the walls of the house, both the nave and (B)the inner sanctuary. And he made (C)side chambers all round. 6 The lowest storey[b] was five cubits broad, the middle one was six cubits broad, and the third was seven cubits broad. For round the outside of the house he made offsets on the wall in order that the supporting beams should not be inserted into the walls of the house.
7 When the house was built, (D)it was with stone prepared at the quarry, so that neither hammer nor axe nor any tool of iron was heard in the house while it was being built.
