1 Kings 6:8-10

Good News Translation

⁸ The entrance to the lowest^[a] story of the annex was on the south side of the Temple, with stairs leading up to the second and third stories. ⁹ So King Solomon finished building the Temple. He put in a ceiling made of beams and boards of cedar. ¹⁰ The three-storied annex, each story^[b] 7½ feet high, was built against the outside walls of the Temple, and was joined to them by cedar beams.
