Then ^ahe made a bronze altar, ¹twenty cubits in length, ²twenty cubits in width, and ³ten cubits in height. 2 ^aHe also made the ¹Sea of cast metal, ²ten cubits from brim to brim, circular in form, and its height was ³five cubits and ⁴its circumference ⁵thirty cubits. 3 Now figures like oxen were under it and all around it, ¹ten cubits, entirely encircling the Sea. The oxen were in two rows, cast ²in one piece. 4 It was standing on twelve oxen, three facing north, three facing west, three facing south, and three facing east; and the Sea was set on top of them and all their hindquarters turned inward. 5 It was a ¹hand width thick, and its brim was made like the brim of a cup, like a lily blossom; it ^acould hold three thousand ²baths. 6 ^aHe also made ten basins in which to wash, and he set five on the right side and five on the left ¹to rinse things for the burnt offering; but the Sea was for the priests to wash in.

7 Then ^ahe made the ten golden lampstands in the way prescribed for them, and he set them in the temple, five on the right side and five on the left. 8 He also made ^aten tables and placed them in the temple, five on the right side and five on the left. And he made a hundred golden bowls. 9 Then he made ^athe courtyard of the priests and ^bthe great courtyard, and doors for the courtyard, and overlaid their doors with bronze. 10 ^aHe put the Sea on the right side of the house toward the southeast.

11 ^aHuram also made the pails, the shovels, and the bowls. So Huram finished the work that he did for King Solomon in the house of God: 12 the two pillars, the bowls and the two capitals on top of the pillars, and the two latticeworks to cover the two bowls of the capitals which were on top of the pillars, 13 and ^athe four hundred pomegranates for the two latticeworks, two rows of pomegranates for each latticework to cover the two bowls of the capitals which were on the pillars. 14 ^aHe also made the stands and he made the basins on the stands, 15 and the one Sea with the twelve oxen under it. 16 The pails, the shovels, the forks, and all its utensils, ^aHuram-abi made of polished bronze for King Solomon, for the house of the LORD. 17 On the plain of the Jordan the king cast them in the clay ground between Succoth and Zeredah. 18 ^aSo Solomon made all these utensils in great quantities, for the weight of the bronze could not be determined.

19 Solomon also made all the things that were in the house of God: the golden altar, ^athe tables with the bread of the Presence on them, 20 the lampstands with their lamps of pure gold, ^ato burn in front of the inner sanctuary in the way prescribed; 21 the flowers, the lamps, and the tongs of gold, that is, of purest gold; 22 and the snuffers, the bowls, the spoons, and the firepans of pure gold; and the entrance of the house, its inner doors for the Most Holy Place and the doors of the house, that is, of the main room, of gold.

Then ^ahe made a bronze altar, twenty cubits in length and twenty cubits in width and ten cubits in height. 2 ^aAlso he made the cast metal sea, ten cubits from brim to brim, circular in form, and its height was five cubits and ¹its circumference thirty cubits. 3 Now figures like oxen were under it and all around it, ten cubits, entirely encircling the sea. The oxen were in two rows, cast ¹in one piece. 4 It stood on twelve oxen, three facing the north, three facing west, three facing south and three facing east; and the sea was set on top of them and all their hindquarters turned inwards. 5 It was a handbreadth thick, and its brim was made like the brim of a cup, like a lily blossom; it ^acould hold 3,000 baths. 6 ^aHe also made ten basins in which to wash, and he set five on the right side and five on the left ¹to rinse things for the burnt offering; but the sea was for the priests to wash in.

7 Then ^ahe made the ten golden lampstands in the way prescribed for them and he set them in the temple, five on the right side and five on the left. 8 He also made ^aten tables and placed them in the temple, five on the right side and five on the left. And he made one hundred golden bowls. 9 Then he made ^athe court of the priests and ^bthe great court and doors for the court, and overlaid their doors with bronze. 10 ^aHe set the sea on the right ¹side of the house toward the southeast.

11 ^aHuram also made the pails, the shovels and the bowls. So Huram finished doing the work which he performed for King Solomon in the house of God: 12 the two pillars, the bowls and the two capitals on top of the pillars, and the two networks to cover the two bowls of the capitals which were on top of the pillars, 13 and ^athe four hundred pomegranates for the two networks, two rows of pomegranates for each network to cover the two bowls of the capitals which were on the pillars. 14 ^aHe also made the stands and he made the basins on the stands, 15 and the one sea with the twelve oxen under it. 16 The pails, the shovels, the forks and all its utensils, ^aHuram-abi made of polished bronze for King Solomon for the house of the LORD. 17 On the plain of the Jordan the king cast them in the clay ground between Succoth and Zeredah. 18 ^aThus Solomon made all these utensils in great quantities, for the weight of the bronze could not be found out.

19 Solomon also made all the things that were in the house of God: even the golden altar, ^athe tables with the bread of the Presence on them, 20 the lampstands with their lamps of pure gold, ^ato burn in front of the inner sanctuary in the way prescribed; 21 the flowers, the lamps, and the tongs of gold, of purest gold; 22 and the snuffers, the bowls, the spoons and the firepans of pure gold; and the entrance of the house, its inner doors for the holy of holies and the doors of the house, that is, of the nave, of gold.

Then ^aSolomon made an altar of bronze, twenty cubits in length, twenty cubits in width, and ten cubits in height. 2 ^aHe also made the Sea that is, the large basin used for ceremonial washing of cast metal, ten cubits from brim to brim, circular in form, and five cubits in height, and its circumference was thirty cubits. 3 Under it and entirely encircling it were figures of oxen, ten to a cubit. The oxen were in two rows, cast in one piece. 4 It stood on twelve oxen, three facing north, three facing west, three facing south, three facing east; and the Sea was set on top of them and all their hindquarters turned inward. 5 It was a handbreadth (the width of the four fingers) thick; its brim was made like the brim of a cup, like a lily blossom. It ^acould hold ¹3,000 baths (measures) . 6 ^aHe also made ten portable basins in which to wash, and he put five on the right (south) side and five on the left (north) . They would rinse things for the burnt offering in them, but the Sea was for the priests to wash in.

7 And ^ahe made ten golden lampstands just as directed and set them in the temple, five on the right side and five on the left. 8 He made also ^aten tables and placed them in the temple, five on the right side and five on the left side, and he made a hundred ceremonial basins of gold. 9 Moreover, he made ^athe courtyard of the priests, and ^bthe great courtyard for the people and doors for the courtyard, and he overlaid their doors with bronze. 10 ^aHe set the Sea on the right side at the southeast corner of the house.

11 And ^aHuram also made the pails for ashes, the shovels, and the basins. So Huram finished the work that he did for King Solomon in the house of God: 12 the two pillars, the bowls, the capitals on top of the two pillars, and the two lattice works to cover the two bowls of the capitals which were on top of the pillars, 13 and ^athe four hundred pomegranates for the two lattice works, two rows of pomegranates for each lattice to cover the two bowls of the capitals on the pillars. 14 ^aHe also made the stands and he made the basins on the stands; 15 and the one Sea with the twelve oxen under it. 16 The pails, the shovels, and the meat-forks, and all the utensils ^aHuram-abi made of polished bronze for King Solomon for the house of the LORD. 17 The king cast them on the plain of the Jordan, in the clay ground between Succoth and Zeredah. 18 ^aSolomon made all these utensils in such great quantity that the weight of the bronze could not be determined.

19 Solomon also made all the articles that were in the house of God: the golden altar, and ^athe tables for the bread of the Presence (showbread) , 20 and the lampstands with their lamps of pure gold, ^ato burn in front of the inner sanctuary (the Holy of Holies) as directed; 21 the flowers, the lamps, and the tongs of gold, of purest gold; 22 and the snuffers, the basins, the dishes for incense, and the firepans, of pure gold; and for the entrance of the house (temple) , the inner doors for the Holy of Holies and the doors of the Holy Place (main room) , were of gold.
