Melachim I 5:26-6:13

ה:כו   וַיקוק, נָתַן חָכְמָה לִשְׁלֹמֹה, כַּאֲשֶׁר, דִּבֶּר-לוֹ; וַיְהִי שָׁלֹם, בֵּין חִירָם וּבֵין שְׁלֹמֹה, וַיִּכְרְתוּ בְרִית, שְׁנֵיהֶם.5:26 And the LORD gave Solomon wisdom, as He promised him; and there was peace between Hiram and Solomon; and they two made a league together.
כז   וַיַּעַל הַמֶּלֶךְ שְׁלֹמֹה מַס, מִכָּל-יִשְׂרָאֵל; וַיְהִי הַמַּס, שְׁלֹשִׁים אֶלֶף אִישׁ.27 And king Solomon raised a levy out of all Israel; and the levy was thirty thousand men.
כח   וַיִּשְׁלָחֵם לְבָנוֹנָה, עֲשֶׂרֶת אֲלָפִים בַּחֹדֶשׁ חֲלִיפוֹת--חֹדֶשׁ יִהְיוּ בַלְּבָנוֹן, שְׁנַיִם חֳדָשִׁים בְּבֵיתוֹ; וַאֲדֹנִירָם, עַל-הַמַּס. 28 And he sent them to Lebanon, ten thousand a month by courses: a month they were in Lebanon, and two months at home; and Adoniram was over the levy.
כט   וַיְהִי לִשְׁלֹמֹה שִׁבְעִים אֶלֶף, נֹשֵׂא סַבָּל; וּשְׁמֹנִים אֶלֶף, חֹצֵב בָּהָר.29 And Solomon had threescore and ten thousand that bore burdens, and fourscore thousand that were hewers in the mountains;
ל   לְבַד מִשָּׂרֵי הַנִּצָּבִים לִשְׁלֹמֹה, אֲשֶׁר עַל-הַמְּלָאכָה, שְׁלֹשֶׁת אֲלָפִים, וּשְׁלֹשׁ מֵאוֹת--הָרֹדִים בָּעָם, הָעֹשִׂים בַּמְּלָאכָה. 30 besides Solomon's chief officers that were over the work, three thousand and three hundred, who bore rule over the people that wrought in the work.
לא   וַיְצַו הַמֶּלֶךְ וַיַּסִּעוּ אֲבָנִים גְּדֹלוֹת אֲבָנִים יְקָרוֹת, לְיַסֵּד הַבָּיִת--אַבְנֵי גָזִית.31 And the king commanded, and they quarried great stones, costly stones, to lay the foundation of the house with hewn stone.
לב   וַיִּפְסְלוּ בֹּנֵי שְׁלֹמֹה, וּבֹנֵי חִירוֹם--וְהַגִּבְלִים; וַיָּכִינוּ הָעֵצִים וְהָאֲבָנִים, לִבְנוֹת הַבָּיִת. 32 And Solomon's builders and Hiram's builders and the Gebalites did fashion them, and prepared the timber and the stones to build the house.
ו:א   וַיְהִי בִשְׁמוֹנִים שָׁנָה וְאַרְבַּע מֵאוֹת שָׁנָה לְצֵאת בְּנֵי-יִשְׂרָאֵל מֵאֶרֶץ-מִצְרַיִם בַּשָּׁנָה הָרְבִיעִית בְּחֹדֶשׁ זִו, הוּא הַחֹדֶשׁ הַשֵּׁנִי, לִמְלֹךְ שְׁלֹמֹה, עַל-יִשְׂרָאֵל; וַיִּבֶן הַבַּיִת, לַיקוק.6:1 And it came to pass in the four hundred and eightieth year after the children of Israel were come out of the land of Egypt, in the fourth year of Solomon's reign over Israel, in the month Ziv, which is the second month, that he began to build the house of the LORD.
ב   וְהַבַּיִת, אֲשֶׁר בָּנָה הַמֶּלֶךְ שְׁלֹמֹה לַיקוק--שִׁשִּׁים-אַמָּה אָרְכּוֹ, וְעֶשְׂרִים רָחְבּוֹ; וּשְׁלֹשִׁים אַמָּה, קוֹמָתוֹ.2 And the house which king Solomon built for the LORD, the length thereof was threescore cubits, and the breadth thereof twenty cubits, and the height thereof thirty cubits.
ג   וְהָאוּלָם, עַל-פְּנֵי הֵיכַל הַבַּיִת--עֶשְׂרִים אַמָּה אָרְכּוֹ, עַל-פְּנֵי רֹחַב הַבָּיִת; עֶשֶׂר בָּאַמָּה רָחְבּוֹ, עַל-פְּנֵי הַבָּיִת.3 And the porch before the temple of the house, twenty cubits was the length thereof, according to the breadth of the house; and ten cubits was the breadth thereof before the house.
ד   וַיַּעַשׂ לַבָּיִת, חַלּוֹנֵי שְׁקֻפִים אֲטוּמִים.4 And for the house he made windows broad within, and narrow without.
ה   וַיִּבֶן עַל-קִיר הַבַּיִת יצוע (יָצִיעַ), סָבִיב, אֶת-קִירוֹת הַבַּיִת סָבִיב, לַהֵיכָל וְלַדְּבִיר; וַיַּעַשׂ צְלָעוֹת, סָבִיב.5 And against the wall of the house he built a side-structure round about, against the walls of the house round about, both of the temple and of the sanctuary; and he made side-chambers round about;
ו   היצוע (הַיָּצִיעַ) הַתַּחְתֹּנָה חָמֵשׁ בָּאַמָּה רָחְבָּהּ, וְהַתִּיכֹנָה שֵׁשׁ בָּאַמָּה רָחְבָּהּ, וְהַשְּׁלִישִׁית, שֶׁבַע בָּאַמָּה רָחְבָּהּ:  כִּי מִגְרָעוֹת נָתַן לַבַּיִת סָבִיב, חוּצָה, לְבִלְתִּי, אֲחֹז בְּקִירוֹת-הַבָּיִת.6 the nethermost story of the side-structure was five cubits broad, and the middle was six cubits broad, and the third was seven cubits broad; for on the outside he made rebatements in the wall of the house round about, that the beams should not have hold in the walls of the house.--
ז   וְהַבַּיִת, בְּהִבָּנֹתוֹ--אֶבֶן-שְׁלֵמָה מַסָּע, נִבְנָה; וּמַקָּבוֹת וְהַגַּרְזֶן כָּל-כְּלִי בַרְזֶל, לֹא-נִשְׁמַע בַּבַּיִת בְּהִבָּנֹתוֹ.7 For the house, when it was in building, was built of stone made ready at the quarry; and there was neither hammer nor axe nor any tool of iron heard in the house, while it was in building.--
ח   פֶּתַח, הַצֵּלָע הַתִּיכֹנָה, אֶל-כֶּתֶף הַבַּיִת, הַיְמָנִית; וּבְלוּלִּים, יַעֲלוּ עַל-הַתִּיכֹנָה, וּמִן-הַתִּיכֹנָה, אֶל-הַשְּׁלִשִׁים.8 The door for the lowest row of chambers was in the right side of the house and they went up by winding stairs into the middle row, and out of the middle into the third.
ט   וַיִּבֶן אֶת-הַבַּיִת, וַיְכַלֵּהוּ; וַיִּסְפֹּן אֶת-הַבַּיִת גֵּבִים, וּשְׂדֵרֹת בָּאֲרָזִים.9 So he built the house, and finished it; and he covered in the house with planks of cedar over beams.
י   וַיִּבֶן אֶת-היצוע (הַיָּצִיעַ) עַל-כָּל-הַבַּיִת, חָמֵשׁ אַמּוֹת קוֹמָתוֹ; וַיֶּאֱחֹז אֶת-הַבַּיִת, בַּעֲצֵי אֲרָזִים. 10 And he built the stories of the side-structure against all the house, each five cubits high; and they rested on the house with timber of cedar.
יא   וַיְהִי, דְּבַר-יקוק, אֶל-שְׁלֹמֹה, לֵאמֹר.11 And the word of the LORD came to Solomon, saying:
יב   הַבַּיִת הַזֶּה אֲשֶׁר-אַתָּה בֹנֶה, אִם-תֵּלֵךְ בְּחֻקֹּתַי וְאֶת-מִשְׁפָּטַי תַּעֲשֶׂה, וְשָׁמַרְתָּ אֶת-כָּל-מִצְותַי, לָלֶכֶת בָּהֶם--וַהֲקִמֹתִי אֶת-דְּבָרִי אִתָּךְ, אֲשֶׁר דִּבַּרְתִּי אֶל-דָּוִד אָבִיךָ.12 'As for this house which thou art building, if thou wilt walk in My statutes, and execute Mine ordinances, and keep all My commandments to walk in them; then will I establish My word with thee, which I spoke unto David thy father;
יג   וְשָׁכַנְתִּי, בְּתוֹךְ בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל; וְלֹא אֶעֱזֹב, אֶת-עַמִּי יִשְׂרָאֵל. 13 in that I will dwell therein among the children of Israel, and will not forsake My people Israel.'
