Bible in Basic English
And in the most holy place he made images of two winged beings, covering them with gold.
Their outstretched wings were twenty cubits across; one wing, five cubits long, touching the wall of the house, and the other, of the same size, meeting the wing of the other winged one.
And in the same way, the wings of the other, five cubits long, were stretched out, one touching the wall and the other meeting the wing of the first winged one.
Their outstretched wings were twenty cubits across; they were placed upright on their feet, facing the inner part of the house.
And he made the veil of blue and purple and red, of the best linen, worked with winged ones.
And in front of the house he made two pillars, thirty-five cubits high, with crowns on the tops of them, five cubits high.
And he made chains, like neck ornaments, and put them on the tops of the pillars, and a hundred apples on the chains.
He put up the pillars in front of the Temple, one on the right side and one on the left, naming the one on the right Jachin and that on the left Boaz.
— 2 Chronicles 3:10-1964, Bible in Basic English
“In the most holy place he made two images of cherubim and plated them with gold. The combined wing span of the cherubim was 30 feet. One of the first cherub’s wings was seven and one-half feet long and touched one wall of the temple; its other wing was also seven and one-half feet long and touched one of the second cherub’s wings. Likewise one of the second cherub’s wings was seven and one-half feet long and touched the other wall of the temple; its other wing was also seven and one-half feet long and touched one of the first cherub’s wings. The combined wingspan of these cherubim was 30 feet. They stood upright, facing inward. He made the curtain out of blue, purple, crimson, and white fabrics, and embroidered on it decorative cherubim. In front of the temple he made two pillars which had a combined length of 52½ feet, with each having a plated capital seven and one-half feet high. He made ornamental chains and put them on top of the pillars. He also made one hundred pomegranate-shaped ornaments and arranged them within the chains. He set up the pillars in front of the temple, one on the right side and the other on the left. He named the one on the right Yakin, and the one on the left Boaz.”
All the house was plated with gold, the supports, the steps, the walls and the doors; and the walls were ornamented with designs of winged ones.
