3 Kings 7:6

And he made a porch of pillars of fifty cubits in length, and thirty cubits in breadth: and another porch before the greater porch: and pillars, and chapiters upon the pillars.

The verse in its languages

Et porticum columnarum fecit quinquaginta cubitorum longitudinis, et triginta cubitorum latitudinis : et alteram porticum in facie majoris porticus : et columnas, et epistylia super columnas.
Septuagint (Swete)
Verse numbering differs here, so nothing is shown rather than the wrong verse.
Hebrew (WLC)
וְאֵ֨ת אוּלָ֤ם הָֽעַמּוּדִים֙ עָשָׂ֔ה חֲמִשִּׁ֤ים אַמָּה֙ אָרְכּ֔וֹ וּשְׁלֹשִׁ֥ים אַמָּ֖ה רָחְבּ֑וֹ וְאוּלָם֙ עַל פְּנֵיהֶ֔ם וְעַמֻּדִ֥ים וְעָ֖ב עַל פְּנֵיהֶֽם

Haydock's commentary

Porch. Septuagint seem to retain the original word ulam, as they read ailam; whence our hall, and the Latin aula, may be derived. (Haydock)

It was a court surrounded by pillars and galleries, in front of the palace. (Calmet)

Another. Hebrew, "the porch before them, (pillars) and the pillars, and the thick beam before them."
