Kings III 7:5-20

⁵And he made two ornaments of net-work to cover the chapiters of the pillars; even a net for one chapiter, and a net for the other chapiter.

⁶And hanging work, two rows of brazen pomegranates, formed with net-work, hanging work, row upon row: and thus he framed the ornaments for the second chapiter.

⁷And he set up the pillars of the porch of the temple: and he set up the one pillar, and called its name Jachum: and he set up the second pillar, and called its name Boloz.

⁸And on the heads of the pillars he made lily-work against the porch, of four cubits,

⁹and a chamber over both the pillars, and above the sides an addition equal to the chamber in width.

¹⁰And he made the sea, ten cubits from one rim to the other, the same was completely circular round about: its height was five cubits, and its circumference thirty-three cubits.

¹¹And stays underneath its rim round about compassed it ten cubits round;

¹²and its rim was as the work of the rim of a cup, a lily-flower, and the thickness of it was a span.

¹³And there were twelve oxen under the sea; three looking to the north, and three looking to the west, and three looking to the south, and three looking to the east: and all their hinder parts were inward, and the sea was above upon them.

¹⁴And he made ten brazen bases: five cubits was the length of one base, and four cubits the breadth of it, and its height was six cubits.

¹⁵And this work of the bases was formed with a border to them, and there was a border between the ledges.

¹⁶And upon their borders between the projections were lions, and oxen, and cherubs: and on the projections, even so above, and also below were the places of lions and oxen, hanging work.

¹⁷And there were four brazen wheels to one base; and there were brazen bases, and their four sides answering to them, side pieces under the bases.

¹⁸And there were axles in the wheels under the base. And the height of one wheel was a cubit and a half.

¹⁹And the work of the wheels was as the work of chariot wheels: their axles, and their felloes, and the rest of their work, were all molten.

²⁰The four side-pieces were at the four corners of each base; its shoulders were formed of the base.
