— 1 Kings 6:19, Catholic Public Domain Version
“And the oracle he prepared in the house within, to set there the ark of the covenant of the Lord.”
“And he prepared an oracle in the midst of the house within, to set there the ark of the covenant of Jehovah. ”
“He prepared an oracle in the midst of the house within, to set there the ark of the covenant of Yahweh.”
“He prepared the inner sanctuary inside the temple so that the ark of the covenant of the LORD could be placed there.”
“And he made the oracle in the midst of the house, in the inner part, to set there the ark of the covenant of the Lord.”
“And he made ready an inmost room in the middle of the house, in which to put the ark of the agreement of the Lord.”
“And the oracle he prepared in the house within, to set there the ark of the covenant of the Lord.”
And he built panels of cedar, of twenty cubits, at the back part of the temple, from the floor even to the top. And he made the inner house of the oracle as the Holy of Holies.
And the temple itself, before the doors of the oracle, was forty cubits.
And the entire house was clothed with cedar on the interior, having its turnings and junctures artfully wrought, with carvings projecting outward. Everything was clothed with panels of cedar. And no stone at all was able to be seen in the wall.
Now he made the oracle in the middle of the house, in the inner part, so that he might station the ark of the covenant of the Lord there.
And the oracle held twenty cubits in length, and twenty cubits in width, and twenty cubits in height. And he covered and clothed it with the purest gold. Then, too, he clothed the altar in cedar.
Also, the house before the oracle, he covered with the purest gold, and he fastened the plates with nails of gold.
And there was nothing in the temple that was not covered with gold. Moreover, the entire altar of the oracle he overlaid with gold.
