And the house, when it was in building, was built of stone made ready at the quarry; and there was neither hammer nor axe nor any tool of iron heard in the house, while it was in building.

(And the stones used in the building of the house were squared at the place where they were cut out; there was no sound of hammer or axe or any iron instrument while they were building the house.)

Και ο οικος, ενω ωκοδομειτο, ωκοδομηθη με λιθους προητοιμασμενους πριν μετακομισθωσιν εκει· ωστε ουτε σφυρα ουτε πελεκυς ουδεν σιδηρουν εργαλειον δεν ηκουσθη εν τω οικω ενω ωκοδομειτο.

And the house, when it was in building, was built of stone made ready before it was brought thither: so that there was neither hammer nor axe nor any tool of iron heard in the house, while it was in building.
