1 Kings 7:35-51

³⁵In the top of the base there was a round band half a cubit high; and on the top of the base its supports and its panels were the same.

³⁶On the plates of its supports and on its panels, he engraved cherubim, lions, and palm trees, each in its space, with wreaths all around.

³⁷He made the ten bases in this way: all of them had one casting, one measure, and one form.

³⁸He made ten basins of bronze. One basin contained forty baths. Every basin measured four cubits. One basin was on every one of the ten bases.

³⁹He set the bases, five on the right side of the house and five on the left side of the house. He set the sea on the right side of the house eastward and toward the south.

⁴⁰Hiram made the pots, the shovels, and the basins. So Hiram finished doing all the work that he worked for king Solomon in Yahweh’s house:

⁴¹the two pillars; the two bowls of the capitals that were on the top of the pillars; the two networks to cover the two bowls of the capitals that were on the top of the pillars;

⁴²the four hundred pomegranates for the two networks; two rows of pomegranates for each network, to cover the two bowls of the capitals that were on the pillars;

⁴³the ten bases; the ten basins on the bases;

⁴⁴the one sea; the twelve oxen under the sea;

⁴⁵the pots; the shovels; and the basins. All of these vessels, which Hiram made for king Solomon in Yahweh’s house, were of burnished bronze.

⁴⁶The king cast them in the plain of the Jordan, in the clay ground between Succoth and Zarethan.

⁴⁷Solomon left all the vessels unweighed, because there were so many of them. The weight of the bronze could not be determined.

⁴⁸Solomon made all the vessels that were in Yahweh’s house: the golden altar and the table that the show bread was on, of gold;

⁴⁹and the lamp stands, five on the right side and five on the left, in front of the inner sanctuary, of pure gold; and the flowers, the lamps, and the tongs, of gold;

⁵⁰the cups, the snuffers, the basins, the spoons, and the fire pans, of pure gold; and the hinges, both for the doors of the inner house, the most holy place, and for the doors of the house, of the temple, of gold.

⁵¹Thus all the work that king Solomon did in Yahweh’s house was finished. Solomon brought in the things which David his father had dedicated—the silver, the gold, and the vessels—and put them in the treasuries of Yahweh’s house.
