← 1 Kings 5:17	1 Kings 5:18 (KJV)	1 Kings 6:1 →
And the king commanded, and they brought great stones, costly stones, [and] hewed stones, to lay the foundation of the house.	And Solomon's builders and Hiram's builders did hew [them], and the stonesquarers: so they prepared timber and stones to build the house.	And it came to pass in the four hundred and eightieth year after the children of Israel were come out of the land of Egypt, in the fourth year of Solomon's reign over Israel, in the month Zif, which [is] the second month, that he began to build the house of the LORD.
