Also he made the molten sea of ten cubits from brim to brim. It was round, five cubits high, and thirty cubits in circumference.

Under it was the likeness of oxen, which encircled it, for ten cubits, encircling the sea. The oxen were in two rows, cast when it was cast.

It stood on twelve oxen, three looking toward the north, three looking toward the west, three looking toward the south, and three looking toward the east; and the sea was set on them above, and all their hindquarters were inward.
5 A thah kutsom pakhat lo tih a rhai te boengloeng rhai mueimae bangla om. Rhaiphuelh tuilipai a doeng tih bath thawng thum kun.
It was a handbreadth thick. Its brim was made like the brim of a cup, like the flower of a lily. It received and held three thousand baths.

He also made ten basins, and put five on the right hand and five on the left, to wash in them. The things that belonged to the burnt offering were washed in them, but the sea was for the priests to wash in.
7 Sui hmaitung parha te amamih kah khosing bangla a saii tih bawkim khuiah te bantang ah panga, banvoei ah panga a khueh.
He made the ten lamp stands 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.

Furthermore he made the court of the priests, the great court, and doors for the court, and overlaid their doors with bronze.
10 Tuili te khaw khothoeng bantang hael kah tuithim imdan ah a khueh.
He set the sea on the right side of the house eastward, toward the south.
11 Huram loh am neh hmaisoh khaw, baelcak khaw a saii. Huram Khiram loh bitat a saii te a khah coeng. Te te manghai Solomon hamla Pathen im ah a saii pah.
Huram made the pots, the shovels, and the basins. So Huram finished doing the work that he did for King Solomon in God’s house:
12 Tung panit neh tuidueh khaw, tung soi rhoi kah tungthi khaw, tung soi, tungthi dongkah tuidueh rhoi aka cam sahamlong rhoi khaw,
the two pillars, the bowls, the two capitals which were on the top of the pillars, the two networks to cover the two bowls of the capitals that were on the top of the pillars,
13 Sahamlong rhoi dongkah hamla tale thaih ya li lo. Sahamlong pakhat dongah tale thaih than nit om tih tung soi tungthi dongkah tuidueh rhoi te a thingcam.
and 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.
14 Tungkho khaw a saii tih tungkho soah baeldung a saii.
He also made the bases, and he made the basins on the bases—
15 Tuili pakhat te khaw a hmui ah vaito hlai nit.
one sea, and the twelve oxen under it.
16 Te phoeiah am neh hmaisoh khaw, ciksum neh hnopai boeih khaw a saii. Te rhoek Huramabi loh manghai Solomon ham neh BOEIPA im ham rhohum met neh a saii.
Huram-abi also made the pots, the shovels, the forks, and all its vessels for King Solomon, for the LORD’s house, of bright bronze.
17 Te rhoek te Jordan vannaem kah Sukkoth laklo neh Zeredah laklo, lai thah dongah manghai loh a saii.
The king cast them in the plain of the Jordan, in the clay ground between Succoth and Zeredah.
18 He hnopai boeih he Solomon loh a cungkuem la muep a saii tih rhohum kah a khiing te khe lek pawh.
Thus Solomon made all these vessels in great abundance, so that the weight of the bronze could not be determined.
19 Solomon loh Pathen im kah hnopai cungkuem, sui hmueihtuk neh caboei khaw a so kah a hmai buh khaw a saii.
Solomon made all the vessels that were in God’s house: the golden altar, the tables with the show bread on them,

and the snuffers, the basins, the spoons, and the fire pans of pure gold. As for the entry of the house, its inner doors for the most holy place and the doors of the main hall of the temple were of gold.
