1He made a bronze altar twenty cubits long, twenty cubits wide, and ten cubits high.2He made the sea cast: ten cubits from rim to rim, round all around, five cubits its height, and a line of thirty cubits encircled it all around.3And likenesses of cattle underneath it all around, all around, ten cubits surrounding the sea all around; two rows of the cattle were cast in its casting.4Standing upon twelve cattle, three turning northward, three turning westward, three turning southward, and three turning eastward, and the sea upon them from above, and all their backs toward the house.5And its thickness a handbreadth, and its rim like the work of a cup rim, a lily blossom; it held three thousand baths.6He made ten basins and placed five on the right and five on the left for washing in them the work of the burnt offering; they washed in them, and the sea was for the priests to wash in.7He made ten gold lampstands according to their judgment and placed five on the right and five on the left in the temple.8He made ten tables and placed five on the right and five on the left in the temple, and made one hundred gold bowls.9He made the court of the priests and the large enclosure, and doors for the enclosure, and their doors overlaid with bronze.10He placed the sea on the right side, eastward opposite the south.11Hiram made the pots, the shovels, and the bowls, and Hiram completed the work he had undertaken for King Solomon in the house of God.12Two pillars, and the bowls and the capitals upon the heads of the two pillars, and two latticeworks to cover the two bowls of the capitals that were upon the heads of the pillars.13And four hundred pomegranates for the two latticeworks, two rows of pomegranates for each latticework to cover the two bowls of the capitals that were upon the faces of the pillars.14He made the stands and made the basins upon the stands.15He made the one sea and the twelve cattle beneath it.16And the pots, and the shovels, and the forks, and all their utensils Hiram and Ab made for King Solomon for the house of the LORD of polished bronze.17In the plain of the Jordan the king cast them, in the clay of the land, between Succoth and Zeredah.18Solomon made all these utensils in very great abundance, for the weight of the bronze was not searched.19Solomon made all the utensils that were for the house of God, and the gold altar, and the tables, and upon them the bread of the Presence.20And the lampstands and their lamps, of pure gold, to burn before the inner sanctuary, according to the judgment.21The flowers, the lamps, and the tongs were of pure gold.22And the snuffers, and the bowls, and the palms, and the censers of pure gold, and the entrance of the house, its inner doors to the inner sanctuary, and the doors of the house for the temple of gold.
Chapter 5
1And all the work that Solomon made for the house of the LORD was completed, and Solomon brought the holy things of David his father, and the silver, and the gold, and all the utensils; he gave them into the treasuries of the house of God.
