1 Kings 6:17-19

Lexham English Bible

¹⁷ The main hall of the temple^[a] was forty cubits in front of the inner sanctuary,^{[b] 18} with the cedar within the inner house having carvings of gourds and buds of flowers. It was entirely of cedar; there was not a stone visible. ¹⁹ Now in the inner sanctuary in the middle of the temple^[c] he prepared the inside to place the ark of the covenant of Yahweh there.
