1 Kings 6:7 in Context — 1 Kings 6
5 Il bâtit contre le mur de la maison des étages circulaires, qui entouraient les murs de la maison, le temple et le sanctuaire; et il fit des chambres latérales tout autour.
6 L’étage inférieur était large de cinq coudées, celui du milieu de six coudées, et le troisième de sept coudées; car il ménagea des retraites à la maison tout autour en dehors, afin que la charpente n’entrât pas dans les murs de la maison.
7 Lorsqu’on bâtit la maison, on se servit de pierres toutes taillées, et ni marteau, ni hache, ni aucun instrument de fer, ne furent entendus dans la maison pendant qu’on la construisait.
8 L’entrée des chambres de l’étage inférieur était au côté droit de la maison; on montait à l’étage du milieu par un escalier tournant, et de l’étage du milieu au troisième.
9 Après avoir achevé de bâtir la maison, Salomon la couvrit de planches et de poutres de cèdre.
