18There was cedar on the house within, carved with buds and open flowers: all was cedar; there was no stone seen.
19He prepared an oracle in the midst of the house within, to set there the ark of the covenant of Yahweh.
20Within the oracle was [a space of] twenty cubits in length, and twenty cubits in breadth, and twenty cubits in the height of it; and he overlaid it with pure gold: and he covered the altar with cedar.
21So Solomon overlaid the house within with pure gold: and he drew chains of gold across before the oracle; and he overlaid it with gold.
22The whole house he overlaid with gold, until all the house was finished: also the whole altar that belonged to the oracle he overlaid with gold.
23In the oracle he made two cherubim of olive-wood, each ten cubits high.
24Five cubits was the one wing of the cherub, and five cubits the other wing of the cherub: from the uttermost part of the one wing to the uttermost part of the other were ten cubits.
