26 The height of one cherub was ten cubits, and so was the other cherub.

27 Then he set the cherubim inside the inner¹ room; and ^athey stretched out the wings of the cherubim so that the wing of the one touched one wall, and the wing of the other cherub touched the other wall. And their wings touched each other in the middle of the room.  ‡

29 Then he carved all the walls of the temple all around, both the inner and outer sanctuaries, with carved ^afigures of cherubim, palm trees, and open flowers.  ‡

30 And the floor of the temple he overlaid with gold, both the inner and outer sanctuaries.
