7 Il fit le portique du trône, où il rendait la justice, le portique du jugement; et il le couvrit de cèdre, depuis le sol jusqu’au plafond.

8 Sa maison d’habitation fut construite de la même manière, dans une autre cour, derrière le portique. Et il fit une maison du même genre que ce portique pour la fille de Pharaon, qu’il avait prise pour femme.

9 Pour toutes ces constructions on employa de magnifiques pierres, taillées d’après des mesures, sciées avec la scie, intérieurement et extérieurement, et cela depuis les fondements jusqu’aux corniches, et en dehors jusqu’à la grande cour.

10 Les fondements étaient en pierres magnifiques et de grande dimension, en pierres de dix coudées et en pierres de huit coudées.
