1 Kings 7

The building of Solomon's house. One would expect architectural terms, but one gets some surprises.
Verse 6 both NIV and JB consider the Hebrew uncertain or corrupted.
Verse 8, Solomon reused his construction plans.

I agree with JB that some of these verses are unintelligible. In verses 30 to 35, words describing a human body (hand, shoulder, head, even אישׁ, a word which generally applies to a person, is uniquely used here) are put to technical usage in the description of the various parts of the wheeled stands. The translations on Sefaria confirmed by NIV were helpful is guessing what's what. (They guess too.) My rules on using a different English word for a different Hebrew stem are sometimes stretched too far. This seemed for a sleep (sleep often helps) like rocks in the pathway for the final stretch with the finish line in sight. There are still rocks but I stepped over them as has every translation I look at each in its own different way. It is not impossible that the scribes were embarrassed by this description, as if the image of a human was embedded into the furniture of the temple.

Verses 40 and 45 frame the summary of the things that Hiram made. The phrasing puts king Solomon in apposition to the house of Yahweh. It is odd.

1 Kings 7 Fn Min Max Syll
וְאֶת־בֵּיתוֹ֙ בָּנָ֣ה שְׁלֹמֹ֔ה שְׁלֹ֥שׁ עֶשְׂרֵ֖ה שָׁנָ֑ה
וַיְכַ֖ל אֶת־כָּל־בֵּיתֽוֹ
1 And Solomon was building his house thirteen years.
And he finished all his house.
3e 4B 15
6
וַיִּ֜בֶן אֶת־בֵּ֣ית ׀ יַ֣עַר הַלְּבָנ֗וֹן מֵאָ֨ה אַמָּ֤ה אָרְכּוֹ֙ וַחֲמִשִּׁ֤ים אַמָּה֙ רָחְבּ֔וֹ וּשְׁלֹשִׁ֥ים אַמָּ֖ה קוֹמָת֑וֹ
עַ֗ל אַרְבָּעָה֙ טוּרֵי֙ עַמּוּדֵ֣י אֲרָזִ֔ים וּכְרֻת֥וֹת אֲרָזִ֖ים עַל־הָעַמּוּדִֽים
2 And he built the house of the forest of Lebanon, a hundred cubits, its length, and fifty cubits, its breadth, and thirty cubits, its height,
on four rows of cedar pillars, and cedar cuttings on the pillars.
3e 4C 32
23
וְסָפֻ֣ן בָּאֶ֗רֶז מִמַּ֙עַל֙ עַל־הַצְּלָעֹת֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר עַל־הָֽעַמּוּדִ֔ים אַרְבָּעִ֖ים וַחֲמִשָּׁ֑ה
חֲמִשָּׁ֥ה עָשָׂ֖ר הַטּֽוּר
3 And it was paneled with cedar above on the ribs that were on the forty five pillars,
fifteen in the row.
3e 4B 27
7
וּשְׁקֻפִ֖ים שְׁלֹשָׁ֣ה טוּרִ֑ים
וּמֶחֱזָ֥ה אֶל־מֶחֱזָ֖ה שָׁלֹ֥שׁ פְּעָמִֽים
4 And clerestories three rows,
and vision to vision, three times.
3e 4B 8
13
וְכָל־הַפְּתָחִ֥ים וְהַמְּזוּז֖וֹת רְבֻעִ֣ים שָׁ֑קֶף
וּמ֧וּל מֶחֱזָ֛ה אֶל־מֶחֱזָ֖ה שָׁלֹ֥שׁ פְּעָמִֽים
5 And all the doors and the posts were squared with clerestory,
and the cutting edge of vision to vision, three times.
3c 4B 14
14
וְאֵ֨ת אוּלָ֤ם הָֽעַמּוּדִים֙ עָשָׂ֔ה חֲמִשִּׁ֤ים אַמָּה֙ אָרְכּ֔וֹ וּשְׁלֹשִׁ֥ים אַמָּ֖ה רָחְבּ֑וֹ
וְאוּלָם֙ עַל־פְּנֵיהֶ֔ם וְעַמֻּדִ֥ים וְעָ֖ב עַל־פְּנֵיהֶֽם
6 And he made a porch of the pillars, fifty cubits its length, and thirty cubits its breadth,
and porch was facing them, and pillars and thickness facing them.
3e 4C 24
17
וְאוּלָ֤ם הַכִּסֵּא֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר יִשְׁפָּט־שָׁ֔ם אֻלָ֥ם הַמִּשְׁפָּ֖ט עָשָׂ֑ה
וְסָפ֣וּן בָּאֶ֔רֶז מֵהַקַּרְקַ֖ע עַד־הַקַּרְקָֽע
7 And the porch for the throne where he would judge, the porch of judgment, he made,
and panels with cedar, from the floor to the floor.
3e 4C 18
14
וּבֵיתוֹ֩ אֲשֶׁר־יֵ֨שֶׁב שָׁ֜ם חָצֵ֣ר הָאַחֶ֗רֶת מִבֵּית֙ לָֽאוּלָ֔ם כַּמַּֽעֲשֶׂ֥ה הַזֶּ֖ה הָיָ֑ה
וּבַ֜יִת יַעֲשֶׂ֤ה לְבַת־פַּרְעֹה֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר לָקַ֣ח שְׁלֹמֹ֔ה כָּאוּלָ֖ם הַזֶּֽה
8 And his house where he inhabited, this had another court inside the porch similar in construction.
And he constructed a house for the daughter of Pharaoh, (whom Solomon had taken) like this porch.
3e 4C 27
22
כָּל־אֵ֜לֶּה אֲבָנִ֤ים יְקָרֹת֙ כְּמִדֹּ֣ת גָּזִ֔ית מְגֹרָר֥וֹת בַּמְּגֵרָ֖ה מִבַּ֣יִת וּמִח֑וּץ
וּמִמַּסָּד֙ עַד־הַטְּפָח֔וֹת וּמִח֖וּץ עַד־הֶחָצֵ֥ר הַגְּדוֹלָֽה
9 All these were of precious stones according to the measures of cut-stone, sawed with saws on the inside and on the outside,
and from the foundation to the friezes, and from the street to the great court.
3e 4C 27
18
וּמְיֻסָּ֕ד אֲבָנִ֥ים יְקָר֖וֹת אֲבָנִ֣ים גְּדֹל֑וֹת
אַבְנֵי֙ עֶ֣שֶׂר אַמּ֔וֹת וְאַבְנֵ֖י שְׁמֹנֶ֥ה אַמּֽוֹת
10 And the foundation was precious stones, great stones,
stones of ten cubits, and stones of eight cubits.
3e 4B 15
14
וּמִלְמַ֗עְלָה אֲבָנִ֧ים יְקָר֛וֹת כְּמִדּ֥וֹת גָּזִ֖ית וָאָֽרֶז 11 And ascending were precious stones according to the measures of cut-stone and cedar. 3c 3g 18
וְחָצֵ֨ר הַגְּדוֹלָ֜ה סָבִ֗יב שְׁלֹשָׁה֙ טוּרִ֣ים גָּזִ֔ית וְט֖וּר כְּרֻתֹ֣ת אֲרָזִ֑ים
וְלַחֲצַ֧ר בֵּית־יְהוָ֛ה הַפְּנִימִ֖ית וּלְאֻלָ֥ם הַבָּֽיִת
12 And the great court round about was three rows of cut-stones and a row of cut cedar,
both for the court of the house of Yahweh, the presence, and for the porch of the house.
3c 4B 23
16
וַיִּשְׁלַח֙ הַמֶּ֣לֶךְ שְׁלֹמֹ֔ה וַיִּקַּ֥ח אֶת־חִירָ֖ם מִצֹּֽר 13 And king Solomon sent and he took Hiram from Tyre. 3e 4B 17
בֶּן־אִשָּׁה֩ אַלְמָנָ֨ה ה֜וּא מִמַּטֵּ֣ה נַפְתָּלִ֗י וְאָבִ֣יו אִישׁ־צֹרִי֮ חֹרֵ֣שׁ נְחֹשֶׁת֒ וַ֠יִּמָּלֵא אֶת־הַחָכְמָ֤ה וְאֶת־הַתְּבוּנָה֙ וְאֶת־הַדַּ֔עַת לַעֲשׂ֥וֹת כָּל־מְלָאכָ֖ה בַּנְּחֹ֑שֶׁת
וַיָּבוֹא֙ אֶל־הַמֶּ֣לֶךְ שְׁלֹמֹ֔ה וַיַּ֖עַשׂ אֶת־כָּל־מְלַאכְתּֽוֹ
14 A child of a widow woman, he was from the branch of Naphtali, and his father was a man of Tyre, an artificer of brass, and he was filled with shrewdness and discernment, and the knowledge of all lines of work in brass.
And he came to king Solomon, and he did all his lines of work.
3e 4C 52
19
וַיָּ֛צַר אֶת־שְׁנֵ֥י הָעַמּוּדִ֖ים נְחֹ֑שֶׁת
שְׁמֹנֶ֨ה עֶשְׂרֵ֜ה אַמָּ֗ה קוֹמַת֙ הָעַמּ֣וּד הָאֶחָ֔ד וְחוּט֙ שְׁתֵּים־עֶשְׂרֵ֣ה אַמָּ֔ה יָסֹ֖ב אֶת־הָעַמּ֥וּד הַשֵּׁנִֽי

שְׂבָכִ֞ים מַעֲשֵׂ֣ה שְׂבָכָ֗ה גְּדִלִים֙ מַעֲשֵׂ֣ה שַׁרְשְׁר֔וֹת לַכֹּ֣תָרֹ֔ת אֲשֶׁ֖ר עַל־רֹ֣אשׁ הָעַמּוּדִ֑ים
שִׁבְעָה֙ לַכֹּתֶ֣רֶת הָאֶחָ֔ת וְשִׁבְעָ֖ה לַכֹּתֶ֥רֶת הַשֵּׁנִֽית
17 Meshes making a great fretwork, made links for the diadems that were on the top of the pillars,

וּשְׁנֵי֩ טוּרִ֨ים סָבִ֜יב עַל־הַשְּׂבָכָ֣ה הָאֶחָ֗ת לְכַסּ֤וֹת אֶת־הַכֹּֽתָרֹת֙ אֲשֶׁר֙ עַל־רֹ֣אשׁ הָֽרִמֹּנִ֔ים וְכֵ֣ן עָשָׂ֔ה לַכֹּתֶ֖רֶת הַשֵּׁנִֽית
18 And he made the pillars,
and two rows round about on the first fretwork to cover the diadems that were over the top of the pomegranates. And so he did for the second diadem.

40
וְכֹֽתָרֹ֗ת אֲשֶׁר֙ עַל־רֹ֣אשׁ הָעַמּוּדִ֔ים מַעֲשֵׂ֖ה שׁוּשַׁ֣ן בָּֽאוּלָ֑ם
אַרְבַּ֖ע אַמּֽוֹת
19 And the diadems that were on the top of the pillars were making a lily in the porch,
four cubits.

4
וְכֹתָרֹ֗ת עַל־שְׁנֵי֙ הָֽעַמּוּדִ֔ים גַּם־מִמַּ֙עַל֙ מִלְּעֻמַּ֣ת הַבֶּ֔טֶן אֲשֶׁ֖ר לְעֵ֣בֶר הַשְּׂבָכָ֑ה
וְהָרִמּוֹנִ֤ים מָאתַ֙יִם֙ טֻרִ֣ים סָבִ֔יב עַ֖ל הַכֹּתֶ֥רֶת הַשֵּׁנִֽית
20 And the diadems on both the pillars were also above, matching the belly that passes through the fretwork,
and the pomegranates, two hundred rows round about against the second diadem.

19
וַיָּ֙קֶם֙ אֶת־הָֽעַמֻּדִ֔ים לְאֻלָ֖ם הַֽהֵיכָ֑ל
וַיָּ֜קֶם אֶת־הָעַמּ֣וּד הַיְמָנִ֗י וַיִּקְרָ֤א אֶת־שְׁמוֹ֙ יָכִ֔ין וַיָּ֙קֶם֙ אֶת־הָעַמּ֣וּד הַשְּׂמָאלִ֔י וַיִּקְרָ֥א אֶת־שְׁמ֖וֹ בֹּֽעַז
21 And he raised up the pillars for the porch of the temple.
And he raised up the right hand pillar, and he called its name, He Will Prepare. And he raised up the left hand pillar, and he called its name, In Strength.

עֶ֣שֶׂר בָּ֠אַמָּה מִשְּׂפָת֨וֹ עַד־שְׂפָת֜וֹ עָגֹ֣ל ׀ סָבִ֗יב וְחָמֵ֤שׁ בָּֽאַמָּה֙ קוֹמָת֔וֹ וְקָו֙ שְׁלֹשִׁ֣ים בָּֽאַמָּ֔ה יָסֹ֥ב אֹת֖וֹ סָבִֽיב
23 And he made the molded sea,
ten cubits from its brim to its brim, the diameter of the circle, and five cubits its height, and a line of thirty cubits surrounded it all around.

וּפְקָעִים֩ מִתַּ֨חַת לִשְׂפָת֤וֹ ׀ סָבִיב֙ סֹבְבִ֣ים אֹת֔וֹ עֶ֚שֶׂר בָּֽאַמָּ֔ה מַקִּפִ֥ים אֶת־הַיָּ֖ם סָבִ֑יב
שְׁנֵ֤י טוּרִים֙ הַפְּקָעִ֔ים יְצֻקִ֖ים בִּיצֻקָתֽוֹ
24 And decorations beneath its brim, round about surrounding it, ten per cubit, encompassing the sea round about.

14
עֹמֵ֞ד עַל־שְׁנֵ֧י עָשָׂ֣ר בָּקָ֗ר שְׁלֹשָׁ֣ה פֹנִ֣ים ׀ צָפ֡וֹנָה וּשְׁלֹשָׁה֩ פֹנִ֨ים ׀ יָ֜מָּה וּשְׁלֹשָׁ֣ה ׀ פֹּנִ֣ים נֶ֗גְבָּה וּשְׁלֹשָׁה֙ פֹּנִ֣ים מִזְרָ֔חָה וְהַיָּ֥ם עֲלֵיהֶ֖ם מִלְמָ֑עְלָה
וְכָל־אֲחֹֽרֵיהֶ֖ם בָּֽיְתָה
25 It stood on twelve oxen, three facing north, and three facing seaward, and three facing southward, and three facing toward the sunrise, and the sea was over them from above it,
and all their hindquarters toward the inside.
3c 4B 48
8
וְעָבְי֣וֹ טֶ֔פַח וּשְׂפָת֛וֹ כְּמַעֲשֵׂ֥ה שְׂפַת־כּ֖וֹס פֶּ֣רַח שׁוֹשָׁ֑ן
אַלְפַּ֥יִם בַּ֖ת יָכִֽיל
26 And its thickness was a hand-breadth, and its brim like the making of the brim of a cup, flourishing with lily,
a thousand baths abiding.
3d 4B 19
5
וַיַּ֧עַשׂ אֶת־הַמְּכֹנ֛וֹת עֶ֖שֶׂר נְחֹ֑שֶׁת
אַרְבַּ֣ע בָּאַמָּ֗ה אֹ֚רֶךְ הַמְּכוֹנָ֣ה הָֽאֶחָ֔ת וְאַרְבַּ֤ע בָּֽאַמָּה֙ רָחְבָּ֔הּ וְשָׁלֹ֥שׁ בָּאַמָּ֖ה קוֹמָתָֽהּ
27 And he made the ten brass bases,
four cubits the length of the first base, and four cubits its breadth, and three cubits its height.
3c 4C 12
30
וְזֶ֛ה מַעֲשֵׂ֥ה הַמְּכוֹנָ֖ה מִסְגְּרֹ֣ת לָהֶ֑ם
וּמִסְגְּרֹ֖ת בֵּ֥ין הַשְׁלַבִּֽים
28 And this was the construction of the bases. They had insets,
and the insets were between the frames.
3d 4B 13
8
וְעַֽל־הַמִּסְגְּר֞וֹת אֲשֶׁ֣ר ׀ בֵּ֣ין הַשְׁלַבִּ֗ים אֲרָי֤וֹת ׀ בָּקָר֙ וּכְרוּבִ֔ים וְעַל־הַשְׁלַבִּ֖ים כֵּ֣ן מִמָּ֑עַל
וּמִתַּ֙חַת֙ לַאֲרָי֣וֹת וְלַבָּקָ֔ר לֹי֖וֹת מַעֲשֵׂ֥ה מוֹרָֽד
29 And over the insets that were between the frames were lions, oxen, and cherubim. And over the frames was a base above.
And beneath for the lions and for the oxen were garlands made to descend.

19
וְאַרְבָּעָה֩ אוֹפַנֵּ֨י נְחֹ֜שֶׁת לַמְּכוֹנָ֤ה הָֽאַחַת֙ וְסַרְנֵ֣י נְחֹ֔שֶׁת וְאַרְבָּעָ֥ה פַעֲמֹתָ֖יו כְּתֵפֹ֣ת לָהֶ֑ם
מִתַּ֤חַת לַכִּיֹּר֙ הַכְּתֵפֹ֣ת יְצֻק֔וֹת מֵעֵ֥בֶר אִ֖ישׁ לֹיֽוֹת
30 And four wheels of brass for each single base, and axle-trees of brass, and its four footings had shoulder-brackets.
Beneath the laver, the shoulder-brackets were molded across each garland.

18
וּ֠פִיהוּ מִבֵּ֨ית לַכֹּתֶ֤רֶת וָמַ֙עְלָה֙ בָּֽאַמָּ֔ה וּפִ֙יהָ֙ עָגֹ֣ל מַעֲשֵׂה־כֵ֔ן אַמָּ֖ה וַחֲצִ֣י הָֽאַמָּ֑ה
וְגַם־עַל־פִּ֙יהָ֙ מִקְלָע֔וֹת וּמִסְגְּרֹתֵיהֶ֥ם מְרֻבָּע֖וֹת לֹ֥א עֲגֻלּֽוֹת
31 ~ And its funnel was from inside of the diadem, and came up by a cubit. And its funnel was a hoop making a base, a cubit and a half the cubit.
And even over its funnel were hangings. But their insets were four-square, not a hoop.
3e 4C 32
22
וְאַרְבַּ֣עַת הָאֽוֹפַנִּ֗ים לְמִתַּ֙חַת֙ לַֽמִּסְגְּר֔וֹת וִיד֥וֹת הָאֽוֹפַנִּ֖ים בַּמְּכוֹנָ֑ה
וְקוֹמַת֙ הָאוֹפַ֣ן הָאֶחָ֔ד אַמָּ֖ה וַחֲצִ֥י הָאַמָּֽה
32 And the four wheels were beneath the insets and the axles of the wheels in from its base.
And the height of each one of the wheels, a cubit and a half the cubit.
3e 4B 25
17
וּמַֽעֲשֵׂה֙ הָא֣וֹפַנִּ֔ים כְּמַעֲשֵׂ֖ה אוֹפַ֣ן הַמֶּרְכָּבָ֑ה
יְדוֹתָ֣ם וְגַבֵּיהֶ֗ם וְחִשֻּׁקֵיהֶ֛ם וְחִשֻּׁרֵיהֶ֖ם הַכֹּ֥ל מוּצָֽק
33 And the construction of the wheels was like the construction of the wheel of a chariot,
their axles, and their arches, and their spokes, and their hubs. The whole was molded.
3d 4B 18
21
וְאַרְבַּ֣ע כְּתֵפ֔וֹת אֶ֚ל אַרְבַּ֣ע פִּנּ֔וֹת הַמְּכֹנָ֖ה הָֽאֶחָ֑ת

כְּמַֽעַר־אִ֥ישׁ וְלֹי֖וֹת סָבִֽיב

as if exposing a person, and garlands round about.

כָּזֹ֣את עָשָׂ֔ה אֵ֖ת עֶ֣שֶׂר הַמְּכֹנ֑וֹת
מוּצָ֨ק אֶחָ֜ד מִדָּ֥ה אַחַ֛ת קֶ֥צֶב אֶחָ֖ד לְכֻלָּֽהְנָה

38 And he made ten brass lavers, the one laver abiding forty baths.
Each one of the lavers, four cubits, one laver over the one base for the ten bases.
