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

2 And he made a molten sea, —ten—by the cubit, from the one brim thereof into the other brim thereof, it was round all about, and, five—by the cubit, was the height thereof, and, a line—of thirty by the cubit, did compass it round about.

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.

3 And, the likeness of oxen, was under it round about on every side, encircling it, ten in a cubit, going round the sea, on every side, -two rows of oxen, made in the casting.

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.

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.

5 And, the thickness thereof, was a hand-breadth, and, the brim thereof, was like the brim-work of a cup, with blossoms of lilies, —it could hold [many] baths, three thousand, would it contain.

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.

6 And he made ten lavers, and set five on the right hand—and five on the left, to bathe therein, what is offered as an ascending-sacrifice, do they rinse therein, —but, the sea, was, that the priests should bathe therein.

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.

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.

10 And, the sea, he set on the right side of the house, eastward over against the south.

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

11 And Huram made—the pans, and the shovels, and the tossing bowls, —and Huram finished doing the work, which he did for King Solomon, in the house of God: —

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;

12 two pillars, and the bowls and the capitals on the top of the two pillars, and the two frames of checker work, to cover the two bowls of the capitals, which were on the top of the pillars;

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;

13 and four hundred pomegranates, for the two frames, -two rows of pomegranates, for each frame, for covering the two bowls of the capitals, which were on the face of the pillars;

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.

14 and, the stands, made he, —and, the lavers, made he upon the stands;

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

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

the one sea, and the twelve oxen under it,

16 and, the pans and the shovels and the flesh-hooks, and all the vessels, made Huram his father for King Solomon, for the house of Yahweh, —of burnished bronze,

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.

17 In the circuit of the Jordan, did the king cast them, in the clay ground between Succoth and Zeredah.

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

18 So Solomon made all these utensils, in great abundance, —for the weight of the bronze could not be searched out.

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

19 Yea Solomon made all the utensils which were for the house of God, —and the altar of gold, and the tables, whereon was the Presence-bread;

20 and the lamp-holders and their lamps, that they should burn according to the regulation before the shrine, of purified gold;

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

21 and the blossom-work, and the lamps, and the tongs, of gold, —the same, was the purest gold;

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