1 Kings 6:7-9
English Standard Version
7 When the house was built, (A)it was with stone prepared at the quarry, so that neither hammer nor axe nor any tool of iron was heard in the house while it was being built.
8 The entrance for the lowest[a] story was on the south side of the house, and one went up by stairs to the middle story, and from the middle story to the third. 9 (B)So he built the house and finished it, and he made the ceiling of the house of beams and planks of cedar.
