8 The doorway to the lowest story of the side chambers was on the right side of the House. They went up by winding stairs to the middle story, and from the middle to the third.
9 When he finished building the House, he covered the House with beams and planks of cedar.
10 He built the stories of the side-structure against the whole House, each five cubits high, and they were fastened to the House with timbers of cedar.
11 Then the word of Adonai came to Solomon saying:
12 “As for this House which you are building, if you will walk in My statutes, execute My ordinances and keep all My mitzvot by walking in them, then I will establish My word with you, which I spoke to your father David,
13 I will dwell among the children of Israel, and will not forsake My people Israel.”
14 So Solomon built the House and finished it.
