6 katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE Passage Biblia Hebraica

15He lined the walls of the house on the inside with boards of cedar; from the floor of the house to the rafters of the ceiling, he covered them on the inside with wood; and he covered the floor of the house with boards of cypress.The Interior furnishings of the temple. 1Kgs.6.15-38 | 2Chr.3.8-14וַיִּבֶן אֶת־קִירֹות הַבַּיִת מִבַּיְתָה בְּצַלְעֹות אֲרָזִים מִקַּרְקַע הַבַּיִת עַד־קִירֹות הַסִּפֻּן צִפָּה עֵץ מִבָּיִת וַיְצַף אֶת־קַרְקַע הַבַּיִת בְּצַלְעֹות בְּרֹושִׁים׃
16He built twenty cubits of the rear of the house with boards of cedar from the floor to the rafters, and he built this within as an inner sanctuary, as the most holy place. וַיִּבֶן אֶת־עֶשְׂרִים אַמָּה כ= מִיַּרְכֹּותֵי ק= מִיַּרְכְּתֵי הַבַּיִת בְּצַלְעֹות אֲרָזִים מִן־הַקַּרְקַע עַד־הַקִּירֹות וַיִּבֶן לֹו מִבַּיִת לִדְבִיר לְקֹדֶשׁ הַקֳּדָשִׁים׃
17The house, that is, the nave in front of the inner sanctuary, was forty cubits long. וְאַרְבָּעִים בָּאַמָּה הָיָה הַבָּיִת הוּא הַהֵיכָל לִפְנָי׃
18The cedar within the house was carved in the form of gourds and open flowers; all was cedar, no stone was seen. וְאֶרֶז אֶל־הַבַּיִת פְּנִימָה מִקְלַעַת פְּקָעִים וּפְטוּרֵי צִצִּים הַכֹּל אֶרֶז אֵין אֶבֶן נִרְאָה׃
19The inner sanctuary he prepared in the innermost part of the house, to set there the ark of the covenant of Yahweh. וּדְבִיר בְּתֹוךְ־הַבַּיִת מִפְּנִימָה הֵכִין לְתִתֵּן שָׁם אֶת־אֲרֹון בְּרִית יְהוָה׃
20The inner sanctuary was twenty cubits long, twenty cubits wide, and twenty cubits high; and he overlaid it with pure gold. He also made an altar of cedar. וְלִפְנֵי הַדְּבִיר עֶשְׂרִים אַמָּה אֹרֶךְ וְעֶשְׂרִים אַמָּה רֹחַב וְעֶשְׂרִים אַמָּה קֹומָתֹו וַיְצַפֵּהוּ זָהָב סָגוּר וַיְצַף מִזְבֵּחַ אָרֶז׃
21And Solomon overlaid the inside of the house with pure gold, and he drew chains of gold across, in front of the inner sanctuary, and overlaid it with gold. וַיְצַף שְׁלֹמֹה אֶת־הַבַּיִת מִפְּנִימָה זָהָב סָגוּר וַיְעַבֵּר כ= בְּרַתִּיקֹות ק= בְּרַתּוּקֹות זָהָב לִפְנֵי הַדְּבִיר וַיְצַפֵּהוּ זָהָב׃
22And he overlaid the whole house with gold, until all the house was finished. Also the whole altar that belonged to the inner sanctuary he overlaid with gold. וְאֶת־כָּל־הַבַּיִת צִפָּה זָהָב עַד־תֹּם כָּל־הַבָּיִת וְכָל־הַמִּזְבֵּחַ אֲשֶׁר־לַדְּבִיר צִפָּה זָהָב׃
23In the inner sanctuary he made two cherubim of olivewood, each ten cubits high. וַיַּעַשׂ בַּדְּבִיר שְׁנֵי כְרוּבִים עֲצֵי־שָׁמֶן עֶשֶׂר אַמֹּות קֹומָתֹו׃
24Five cubits was the length of one wing of the cherub, and five cubits the length of the other wing of the cherub; it was ten cubits from the tip of one wing to the tip of the other. וְחָמֵשׁ אַמֹּות כְּנַף הַכְּרוּב הָאֶחָת וְחָמֵשׁ אַמֹּות כְּנַף הַכְּרוּב הַשֵּׁנִית עֶשֶׂר אַמֹּות מִקְצֹות כְּנָפָיו וְעַד־קְצֹות כְּנָפָיו׃
25The other cherub also measured ten cubits; both cherubim had the same measure and the same form. וְעֶשֶׂר בָּאַמָּה הַכְּרוּב הַשֵּׁנִי מִדָּה אַחַת וְקֶצֶב אֶחָד לִשְׁנֵי הַכְּרֻבִים׃
26The height of one cherub was ten cubits, and so was that of the other cherub. קֹומַת הַכְּרוּב הָאֶחָד עֶשֶׂר בָּאַמָּה וְכֵן הַכְּרוּב הַשֵּׁנִי׃
27He put the cherubim in the innermost part of the house; and the wings of the cherubim were spread out so that a wing of one touched the one wall, and a wing of the other cherub touched the other wall; their other wings touched each other in the middle of the house. וַיִּתֵּן אֶת־הַכְּרוּבִים בְּתֹוךְ הַבַּיִת הַפְּנִימִי וַיִּפְרְשׂוּ אֶת־כַּנְפֵי הַכְּרֻבִים וַתִּגַּע כְּנַף־הָאֶחָד בַּקִּיר וּכְנַף הַכְּרוּב הַשֵּׁנִי נֹגַעַת בַּקִּיר הַשֵּׁנִי וְכַנְפֵיהֶם אֶל־תֹּוךְ הַבַּיִת נֹגְעֹת כָּנָף אֶל־כָּנָף׃
28And he overlaid the cherubim with gold. וַיְצַף אֶת־הַכְּרוּבִים זָהָב׃
29He carved all the walls of the house round about with carved figures of cherubim and palm trees and open flowers, in the inner and outer rooms. וְאֵת כָּל־קִירֹות הַבַּיִת מֵסַב קָלַע פִּתּוּחֵי מִקְלְעֹות כְּרוּבִים וְתִמֹרֹת וּפְטוּרֵי צִצִּים מִלִּפְנִים וְלַחִיצֹון׃
30The floor of the house he overlaid with gold in the inner and outer rooms. וְאֶת־קַרְקַע הַבַּיִת צִפָּה זָהָב לִפְנִימָה וְלַחִיצֹון׃
31For the entrance to the inner sanctuary he made doors of olivewood; the lintel and the doorposts formed a pentagon. וְאֵת פֶּתַח הַדְּבִיר עָשָׂה דַּלְתֹות עֲצֵי־שָׁמֶן הָאַיִל מְזוּזֹות חֲמִשִׁית׃
32He covered the two doors of olivewood with carvings of cherubim, palm trees, and open flowers; he overlaid them with gold, and spread gold upon the cherubim and upon the palm trees. וּשְׁתֵּי דַּלְתֹות עֲצֵי־שֶׁמֶן וְקָלַע עֲלֵיהֶם מִקְלְעֹות כְּרוּבִים וְתִמֹרֹות וּפְטוּרֵי צִצִּים וְצִפָּה זָהָב וַיָּרֶד עַל־הַכְּרוּבִים וְעַל־הַתִּמֹרֹות אֶת־הַזָּהָב׃
33So also he made for the entrance to the nave doorposts of olivewood, in the form of a square, וְכֵן עָשָׂה לְפֶתַח הַהֵיכָל מְזוּזֹות עֲצֵי־שָׁמֶן מֵאֵת רְבִעִית׃
34and two doors of cypress wood; the two leaves of the one door were folding, and the two leaves of the other door were folding. וּשְׁתֵּי דַלְתֹות עֲצֵי בְרֹושִׁים שְׁנֵי צְלָעִים הַדֶּלֶת הָאַחַת גְּלִילִים וּשְׁנֵי קְלָעִים הַדֶּלֶת הַשֵּׁנִית גְּלִילִים׃
35On them he carved cherubim and palm trees and open flowers; and he overlaid them with gold evenly applied upon the carved work. וְקָלַע כְּרוּבִים וְתִמֹרֹות וּפְטֻרֵי צִצִּים וְצִפָּה זָהָב מְיֻשָּׁר עַל־הַמְּחֻקֶּה׃
36He built the inner court with three courses of hewn stone and one course of cedar beams. וַיִּבֶן אֶת־הֶחָצֵר הַפְּנִימִית שְׁלֹשָׁה טוּרֵי גָזִית וְטוּר כְּרֻתֹת אֲרָזִים׃
37In the fourth year the foundation of the house of Yahweh was laid, in the month of Ziv. בַּשָּׁנָה הָרְבִיעִית יֻסַּד בֵּית יְהוָה בְּיֶרַח זִו׃
38And in the eleventh year, in the month of Bul, which is the eighth month, the house was finished in all its parts, and according to all its specifications. He was seven years in building it. וּבַשָּׁנָה הָאַחַת עֶשְׂרֵה בְּיֶרַח בּוּל הוּא הַחֹדֶשׁ הַשְּׁמִינִי כָּלָה הַבַּיִת לְכָל־דְּבָרָיו וּלְכָל־כ= מִשְׁפָּטֹו ק= מִשְׁפָּטָיו וַיִּבְנֵהוּ שֶׁבַע שָׁנִים׃

Notes: This page displays passages from the katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE.
The katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE is a very light revision of the RSV. The changes are: (1) In places where 'the LORD', 'O LORD' occurs in the RSV, (it represents the tetragrammaton - YHWH - which is in the hebrew text), I have used the name 'Yahweh'.
(2) I have removed the quotation marks and hyphens that were used in so many names in the RSV as an aid to correct pronunciation. This now brings it in line with all other English versions, and makes any word-search more accurate.
(3) I have changed all (I hope!) of the RSV archaic language sections to modern.

The katapi New Study Bible reference section displays links to parallel passages, and to direct quotations by New Testament authors to Old Testament passages. Quotations of OT passages by NT authors can in most cases be viewed within their context of the OT passage as a whole, with the quoted text displayed, against a subdued background.
