1st Kings 7:35-44

³⁵And in the highness of the founda-ment was a roundness, of one cubit and an half, so made craftily, that the washing vessel might be set above, having his portrayings, and diverse engravings of itself.

³⁶Also he engraved in those walls, that were of brass, and in the corners, cherubims or cherubim, and lions, and palms, as by the likeness of a man standing, that those or they seemed not engraved, but put to by compass.

³⁷By this manner he made ten foundaments, by one melting out, and one measure, and like engraving.

³⁸Also he made ten washing vessels of brass; one washing vessel took, or held, forty baths, and it was of four cubits; and he put each washing vessel by itself by each foundament by itself, that is, ten.

³⁹And he made ten foundaments, five at the right half of the temple, and five at the left half; and he set the sea at the right half of the temple, against the east, at the south.

⁴⁰Also Hiram made cauldrons, and pans, and wine vessels; and he made perfectly all the work of king Solomon in the temple of the Lord.

⁴¹He made two pillars, and two cords of the pommels, that is, circles compassing the pommels, at the manner of cords, upon the pommels of the pillars, and two works like nets, that those or they should cover the two cords, that were upon the heads of the pillars.

⁴²And he made pomegranates four hundred in two works like nets; and two orders of pomegranates in each work like a net, to cover the cords of the pommels, that were on the heads of the pillars.

⁴³And he made the ten founda-ments, and the ten washing vessels on the foundaments;

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