2 Chronicles 3:5 in Context — 2 Chronicles 3

3 Estas [son las medidas de que] Salomón fundó el edificio de la casa de Dios. La primera medida fué, la longitud de sesenta codos; y la anchura de veinte codos.

4 El pórtico que estaba en la delantera de la longitud, era de veinte codos al frente del ancho de la casa, y su altura de ciento y veinte: y cubriólo por dentro de oro puro.

5 Y techó la casa mayor con madera de haya, la cual cubrió de buen oro, é hizo resaltar sobre ella palmas y cadenas.

6 Cubrió también la casa de piedras preciosas por excelencia: y el oro era oro de Parvaim.

7 Así cubrió la casa, sus vigas, sus umbrales, sus paredes, y sus puertas, con oro; y esculpió querubines por las paredes.
