2 Chronicles 4

1 And he makes an altar of bronze: twenty cubits its length, and twenty cubits its breadth, and ten cubits its height.

He made also an altar of copper, twenty cubits being its length, and twenty cubits its breadth, and ten cubits its height.

2 And he makes the molten sea; ten by the cubit, from its edge to its edge, round in encompassment, and its height [is] five by the cubit, and a line of thirty by the cubit surrounds it around.

He made also the molten sea, being ten cubits from the one brim to the other, rounded all about, and it was five cubits in height: and a line of thirty cubits did encompass it round about.

3 And the likeness of oxen [is] under it, encompassing it all around, ten to the cubit, surrounding the sea around; two rows of oxen are cast in its being cast.

And likenesses of oxen were under it, encompassing it all round about, ten in a cubit, encircling the sea round about: the oxen were in two rows [and were] cast [with it], when it was cast.

4 It is standing on twelve oxen, three facing the north, and three facing the west, and three facing the south, and three facing the east, and the sea [is] on them above, and all their back parts [are] within.

It was standing 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 resting above upon them, and all their hinder parts were inward.

5 And its thickness [is] a handbreadth, and its lip as the work of the lip of a cup flowered with lilies; holding [within]—it contains three thousand baths.

And its thickness was a hand's breadth, and its brim like the brim of a cup, with lily-buds; and it could hold and contain three thousand baths.

6 And he makes ten lavers, and puts five on the right, and five on the left, to wash with them; they purge the work of the burnt-offering with them; and the sea [is] for priests to wash with.

He made also ten lavers; and he placed five on the right hand, and five on the left, to wash in them: what belonged to the burnt-offering they rinsed off at them; but the sea was for the priests to wash in.

7 And he makes the ten lampstands of gold, according to their ordinance, and places [them] in the temple, five on the right, and five on the left.

And he made ten candlesticks of gold according to their prescribed manner: and he placed [them] in the temple, five on the right side, and five on the left.

8 And he makes ten tables, and places [them] in the temple, five on the right, and five on the left; and he makes one hundred bowls of gold.

He made also ten tables, and he set them in the temple, five on the right side, and five on the left. And he made a hundred bowls of gold.

9 And he makes the court of the priests, and the great court, and doors for the court, and he has overlaid their doors with bronze.

And he made the court of the priests, and the great out-court, and doors for the out-court, and their doors he overlaid with copper.

10 And he has placed the sea on the right shoulder eastward, from toward the south.

And the sea he placed on the right side toward the east, opposite to the south.

11 And Huram makes the pots, and the shovels, and the bowls, and Huram finishes to make the work that he made for King Solomon in the house of God;

And Churam made the pots, and the shovels, and the basins. And Churam made an end of doing the work which he made for king Solomon in the house of God:

12 two pillars, and the bowls, and the crowns on the heads of the two pillars, and the two networks to cover the two bowls of the crowns that [are] on the heads of the pillars;

The two pillars, and the bowls, and the capitals on the top of the two pillars, and the two networks to cover the bowl-shaped capitals which were on the top of the pillars;

13 and the four hundred pomegranates for the two networks, two rows of pomegranates for the one network, to cover the two bowls of the crowns that [are] on the front of the pillars.

And the four hundred pomegranates for the two networks, two rows of pomegranates for each network, to cover the two bowl-shaped capitals which were upon the front of the pillars.

14 And he has made the bases; and he has made the lavers on the bases;

The bases also did he make, and the lavers made he upon the bases.

15 the one sea, and the twelve oxen under it,

The one sea, and the twelve oxen under it,

16 and the pots, and the shovels, and the forks, and all their vessels, his father Huram has made for King Solomon, for the house of YHWH, of bronze purified.

And the pots also, and the shovels, and the forks, and all their instruments, did Churam-Abiv make for king Solomon for the house of the Lord, of polished copper.

17 The king has cast them in the circuit of the Jordan, in the thick soil of the ground, between Succoth and Zeredathah.

In the plain of the Jordan did the king cast them, in the clay-ground between Succoth and Zeredathah.

18 And Solomon makes all these vessels in great abundance, that the weight of the bronze has not been searched out.

And Solomon made all these vessels in very great abundance; for the weight of the copper was not inquired into.

19 And Solomon makes all the vessels that [are for] the house of God, and the altar of gold, and the tables, and on them [is] Bread of the Presentation;

And Solomon made all the vessels that pertained to the house of God; and the altar of gold also, and the tables whereon the show-bread [was set];

20 and the lampstands, and their lamps, for their burning according to the ordinance, before the oracle, of gold refined;

And the candlesticks with their lamps, to light them after the prescribed manner before the debir, of pure gold.

21 and the flowers, and the lamps, and the tongs of gold—it [is] the perfection of gold;

And the flowers, and the lamps, and the tongs, were of gold, the purest of gold;

22 and the snuffers, and the bowls, and the spoons, and the censers, of gold refined, and the opening of the house, its innermost doors to the Holy of Holies, and the doors of the house to the temple, of gold.

And the knives, and the basins, and the spoons, and the censers were of pure gold; and the entrance of the house, its inner doors for the most holy place, and the doors of the house of the temple, were of gold.
