3 Kings 6:32

And two doors of olive tree: and he carved upon them figures of cherubims, and figures of palm trees, and carvings very much projecting: and he overlaid them with gold: and he covered both the cherubims and the palm trees, and the other things with gold.

The verse in its languages

Vulgate (Clementine)
Et duo ostia de lignis olivarum : et sculpsit in eis picturam cherubim, et palmarum species, et anaglypha valde prominentia : et texit ea auro, et operuit tam cherubim quam palmas, et cetera, auro.
Septuagint (Swete)
The Greek has no verse for the two carved olive-wood doors of the oracle. It goes from the oracle's doors and posts (6:30-31) to the two fir-wood doors of the temple (6:32).
Hebrew (WLC)
וּשְׁתֵּי֮ דַּלְת֣וֹת עֲצֵי שֶׁמֶן֒ וְקָלַ֣ע עֲ֠לֵיהֶם מִקְלְע֨וֹת כְּרוּבִ֧ים וְתִמֹר֛וֹת וּפְטוּרֵ֥י צִצִּ֖ים וְצִפָּ֣ה זָהָ֑ב וַיָּ֛רֶד עַל הַכְּרוּבִ֥ים וְעַל הַתִּֽמֹר֖וֹת אֶת הַזָּהָֽב

Haydock's commentary

And carvings, &c. Hebrew, "and flowers full-blown." The term anaglypha, denotes a sculpture in relievo, (Calmet) or projecting. (Haydock)
