וַיִּבֶן֩ אֶת־קִיר֨וֹת הַבַּ֤יִת מִבַּ֙יְתָה֙ בְּצַלְע֣וֹת אֲרָזִ֔ים מִקַּרְקַ֤ע הַבַּ֙יִת֙ עַד־קִיר֣וֹת הַסִּפֻּ֔ן צִפָּ֥ה עֵ֖ץ מִבָּ֑יִת וַיְצַ֛ף אֶת־קַרְקַ֥ע הַבַּ֖יִת בְּצַלְע֥וֹת בְּרוֹשִֽׁים׃
Ia melapisi dinding-dinding Rumah itu di sebelah dalam dengan papan-papan kayu aras. Dari lantai Rumah itu sampai ke bagian atas dinding di bawah langit-langit, ia melapisinya dengan kayu di sebelah dalam. Lantai Rumah itu ia lapisi dengan papan-papan kayu sanobar.
