< 2 Chronicles 4 >
1 He made a bronze altar twenty cubits long, twenty cubits wide, and ten cubits high.
And hee made an altar of brasse twentie cubites long, and twentie cubites broade, and ten cubites hie.
2 He also made the Sea of cast metal. It was circular in shape, measuring ten cubits from rim to rim, five cubits in height, and thirty cubits in circumference.
And he made a molten Sea of ten cubites from brim to brim, rounde in compasse, and fiue cubites hie: and a line of thirtie cubites did compasse it about.
3 Below the rim, figures of oxen encircled it, ten per cubit all the way around the Sea, cast in two rows as a part of the Sea.
And vnder it was ye facion of oxen, which did compasse it rounde about, tenne in a cubite compassing the Sea about: two rowes of oxen were cast when it was molten.
4 The Sea stood on twelve oxen, three facing north, three facing west, three facing south, and three facing east. The Sea rested on them, with all their hindquarters toward the center.
It stoode vpon twelue oxen: three looked toward the North, and three looked towarde the West, and three looked towarde the South, and three looked towarde the East, and the Sea stoode about vpon them, and all their hinder parts were inwarde.
5 It was a handbreadth thick, and its rim was fashioned like the brim of a cup, like a lily blossom. It could hold three thousand baths.
And the thickenesse thereof was an hande breadth, and the brim thereof was like the worke of the brim of a cuppe with floures of lilies: it conteined three thousand baths.
6 He also made ten basins for washing and placed five on the south side and five on the north. The parts of the burnt offering were rinsed in them, but the priests used the Sea for washing.
He made also ten caldrons, and put fiue on the right hand, and fiue on the left, to wash in them, and to clense in them that which apperteined to the burnt offrings: but the Sea was for the Priests to wash in.
7 He made ten gold lampstands according to their specifications and placed them in the temple, five on the south side and five on the north.
And he made ten candlestickes of golde (according to their forme) and put them in the Temple, fiue on the right hand, and fiue on the left.
8 Additionally, he made ten tables and placed them in the temple, five on the south side and five on the north. He also made a hundred gold bowls.
And he made ten tables, and put them in the Temple, fiue on the right hand, and fiue on the left: and he made an hundreth basens of golde.
9 He made the courtyard of the priests and the large court with its doors, and he overlaid the doors with bronze.
And he made the court of the Priests, and the great court and doores for the court, and ouerlayd the doores thereof with brasse.
10 He put the Sea on the south side, at the southeast corner.
And he set the Sea on the right side Eastward toward the South.
11 Additionally, Huram made the pots, shovels, and sprinkling bowls. So Huram finished the work that he had undertaken for King Solomon in the house of God:
And Huram made pottes and besoms and basens, and Huram finished the worke that hee shoulde make for King Salomon for the house of God,
12 the two pillars; the two bowl-shaped capitals atop the pillars; the two sets of network covering both bowls of the capitals atop the pillars;
To wit, two pillars, and the bowles and the chapiters on the top of ye two pillars, and two grates to couer the two bowles of the chapiters which were vpon the toppe of the pillars:
13 the four hundred pomegranates for the two sets of network (two rows of pomegranates for each network covering both the bowl-shaped capitals atop the pillars);
And foure hundreth pomegranates for the two grates, two rowes of pomegranates for euery grate to couer the two bowles of the chapiters, that were vpon the pillars.
14 the stands; the basins on the stands;
He made also bases, and made caldrons vpon the bases:
15 the Sea; the twelve oxen underneath the Sea;
And a Sea, and twelue bulles vnder it:
16 and the pots, shovels, meat forks, and all the other articles. All these objects that Huram-abi made for King Solomon for the house of the LORD were of polished bronze.
Pottes also and besomes, and fleshhookes, and all these vessels made Huram his father, to King Salomon for the house of the Lord, of shining brasse.
17 The king had them cast in clay molds in the plain of the Jordan between Succoth and Zeredah.
In the playne of Iorden did the King cast them in clay betweene Succoth and Zeredathah.
18 Solomon made all these articles in such great abundance that the weight of the bronze could not be determined.
And Salomon made al these vessels in great abundance: for the weight of brasse could not be rekoned.
19 Solomon also made all the furnishings for the house of God: the golden altar; the tables on which was placed the Bread of the Presence;
And Salomon made al the vessels that were for the house of God: the golden altar also and the tables, whereon the shewbread stoode.
20 the lampstands of pure gold and their lamps, to burn in front of the inner sanctuary as prescribed;
Moreouer the candlestickes, with their lampes to burne them after the maner, before the oracle, of pure golde.
21 the flowers, lamps, and tongs of gold—of purest gold;
And the floures and the lampes, and the snuffers of gold, which was fine golde.
