2 Chronicles Chapter 4 (NASB)
undefined
Then he made a bronze altar, twenty cubits in length and twenty cubits in width and ten cubits in height.
undefined
Also he made the cast [metal] sea, ten cubits from brim to brim, circular in form, and its height [was] five cubits and its circumference thirty cubits.
undefined
Now figures like oxen [were] under it [and] all around it, ten cubits, entirely encircling the sea. The oxen [were] in two rows, cast in one piece.
undefined
It stood on twelve oxen, three facing the north, three facing west, three facing south and three facing east; and the sea [was set] on top of them and all their hindquarters turned inwards.
undefined
It was a handbreadth thick, and its brim was made like the brim of a cup, [like] a lily blossom; it could hold 3,000 baths.
undefined
He also made ten basins in which to wash, and he set five on the right side and five on the left to rinse things for the burnt offering; but the sea [was] for the priests to wash in.
undefined
Then he made the ten golden lampstands in the way prescribed for them and he set them in the temple, five on the right side and five on the left.
undefined
He also made ten tables and placed them in the temple, five on the right side and five on the left. And he made one hundred golden bowls.
undefined
Then he made the court of the priests and the great court and doors for the court, and overlaid their doors with bronze.
undefined
He set the sea on the right side [of the house] toward the southeast.
undefined
Huram also made the pails, the shovels and the bowls. So Huram finished doing the work which he performed for King Solomon in the house of God:
undefined
the two pillars, the bowls and the two capitals on top of the pillars, and the two networks to cover the two bowls of the capitals which were on top of the pillars,
undefined
and the four hundred pomegranates for the two networks, two rows of pomegranates for each network to cover the two bowls of the capitals which were on the pillars.
undefined
He also made the stands and he made the basins on the stands,
undefined
[and] the one sea with the twelve oxen under it.
undefined
The pails, the shovels, the forks and all its utensils, Huram-abi made of polished bronze for King Solomon for the house of the LORD.
undefined
On the plain of the Jordan the king cast them in the clay ground between Succoth and Zeredah.
undefined
Thus Solomon made all these utensils in great quantities, for the weight of the bronze could not be found out.
undefined
Solomon also made all the things that [were] in the house of God: even the golden altar, the tables with the bread of the Presence on them,
undefined
the lampstands with their lamps of pure gold, to burn in front of the inner sanctuary in the way prescribed;
undefined
the flowers, the lamps, and the tongs of gold, of purest gold;
undefined
and the snuffers, the bowls, the spoons and the firepans of pure gold; and the entrance of the house, its inner doors for the holy of holies and the doors of the house, [that is], of the nave, of gold.
