Then the word of the LORD came to Solomon, saying:

1 Kings 6:11 in context

The verses around it, from 1 Kings 6.

7 The temple was constructed using finished stones cut at the quarry, so that no hammer or chisel or any other iron tool was heard in the temple while it was being built.

8 The entrance to the bottom floor was on the south side of the temple. A stairway led up to the middle level, and from there to the third floor.

9 So Solomon built the temple and finished it, roofing it with beams and planks of cedar.

10 He built chambers all along the temple, each five cubits high and attached to the temple with beams of cedar.

11 Then the word of the LORD came to Solomon, saying:

12 “As for this temple you are building, if you walk in My statutes, carry out My ordinances, and keep all My commandments by walking in them, I will fulfill through you the promise I made to your father David.

13 And I will dwell among the Israelites and will not abandon My people Israel.”

14 So Solomon built the temple and finished it.

15 He lined the interior walls with cedar paneling from the floor of the temple to the ceiling, and he covered the floor with cypress boards.
