| 1 | And he made a brazen altar: its length was twenty cubits, and its breadth twenty cubits, and its height ten cubits. |
| 2 | And he made the sea, molten, ten cubits from brim to brim, round all about; and its height was five cubits; and a line of thirty cubits encompassed it round about. |
| 3 | And under it was the similitude of oxen, encompassing it round about, ten in a cubit enclosing the sea round about, two rows of oxen, cast when it was cast. |
| 4 | It stood upon twelve oxen, three looking toward the north, and three looking toward the west, and three looking toward the south, and three looking toward the east; and the sea was above upon them, and all their hinder parts were inward. |
| 5 | And its thickness was a hand-breadth, and its brim like the work of the brim of a cup, with lily-blossoms; in capacity it held three thousand baths. |
| 6 | And he made ten lavers, and put five on the right and five on the left, to wash in them: they rinsed in them what they prepared for the burnt-offering; and the sea was for the priests to wash in. |
| 7 | And he made ten candlesticks of gold according to the ordinance respecting them, and set them in the temple, five on the right hand and five on the left. |
| 8 | And he made ten tables, and placed them in the temple, five on the right hand and five on the left. And he made a hundred golden bowls. |
| 9 | And he made the court of the priests, and the great court, and doors for the court, and overlaid the doors thereof with bronze. |
| 10 | And he set the sea on the right side eastward, over against the south. |
| 11 | And Huram made the pots and the shovels and the bowls. So Huram ended doing the work that he made for king Solomon in the house of God: |
| 12 | two pillars, and the globes and the capitals on the top of the pillars, two; and the two networks, to cover the two globes of the capitals which were on the top of the pillars; |
| 13 | and the four hundred pomegranates for the two networks, two rows of pomegranates for one network, to cover the two globes of the capitals which were upon the pillars. |
| 14 | And he made the bases, and he made the lavers on the bases; |
| 15 | one sea, and the twelve oxen under it. |
| 16 | And the pots, and the shovels, and the forks, and all their instruments did Huram Abiv make king Solomon for the house of Jehovah, of bright brass. |
| 17 | In the plain of the Jordan did the king cast them, in the clay-ground between Succoth and Zeredathah. |
| 18 | And Solomon made all these vessels in great number; for the weight of the brass was not ascertained. |
| 19 | And Solomon made all the vessels that were [in] the house of God: the golden altar; and the tables whereon was the shewbread; |
| 20 | and the candlesticks with their lamps to burn according to the ordinance before the oracle, of pure gold; |
| 21 | and the flowers, and the lamps, and the tongs, of gold (it was perfect gold); |
| 22 | and the knives, and the bowls, and the cups, and the censers, of pure gold; and the entrance of the house, the inner folding-doors thereof for the most holy place, and the doors of the house, of the temple, of gold. |
