2 Chronicles 4

Moreover he made an altar of bronze, twenty cubits its length, and twenty cubits its width, and ten cubits its height. ²Also he made the Sea of cast metal of ten cubits from brim to brim, round in shape; and its height was five cubits; and it took a line of thirty cubits to measure it all around. ³Under it was the likeness of oxen, which surrounded it, for ten cubits, surrounding the sea all around. The oxen were in two rows, cast when it was cast. ⁴It stood on 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 set on them above, and all their hinder parts were inward. ⁵It was a handbreadth thick; and its brim was worked like the brim of a cup, like the flower of a lily: it received and held three thousand baths. ⁶He made also ten basins, and put five on the right hand, and five on the left, to wash in them; such things as belonged to the burnt-offering they washed in them; but the sea was for the priests to wash in. ⁷He made the ten lampstands of gold according to the ordinance concerning them; and he set them in the temple, five on the right hand, and five on the left. ⁸He made also ten tables, and placed them in the temple, five on the right side, and five on the left. He made one hundred basins of gold. ⁹Furthermore he made the court of the priests, and the great court, and doors for the court, and overlaid the doors of them with bronze. ¹⁰He set the sea on the right side of the house eastward, toward the south. ¹¹Huram made the pots, and the shovels, and the basins. So Huram made an end of doing the work that he did for king Sulayman in the house of God: ¹²the two pillars, and the bowls, and the two capitals which were on the top of the pillars, and the two networks to cover the two bowls of the capitals that were on the top of the pillars, ¹³and the four hundred pomegranates for the two networks; two rows of pomegranates for each network, to cover the two bowls of the capitals that were on the pillars. ¹⁴He made also the bases, and the basins made he on the bases; ¹⁵one sea, and the twelve oxen under it. ¹⁶The pots also, and the shovels, and the meat-hooks, and all its vessels, did Huram his father make for king Sulayman for the house of Allah of bright bronze. ¹⁷In the plain of the Jordan did the king cast them, in the clay ground between Succoth and Zeredah. ¹⁸Thus Sulayman made all these vessels in great abundance: for the weight of the bronze could not be found out. ¹⁹Sulayman made all the vessels that were in the house of God, the golden altar also, and the tables whereon was the show bread; ²⁰and the lampstands with their lamps, to burn according to the ordinance before the inner sanctuary, of pure gold; ²¹and the flowers, and the lamps, and the tongs, of gold, and that pure gold; ²²and the snuffers, and the basins, and the spoons, and the fire pans, of pure gold: and as for the entry of the house, the inner doors of it for the most holy place, and the doors of the house, to wit, of the temple, were of gold.
