2 Chronicles 4

1
English · Berean Standard Bible

He made a bronze altar twenty cubits long, twenty cubits wide, and ten cubits high.

2
English · Berean Standard Bible

He also made the Sea of cast metal. It was circular in shape, measuring ten cubits from rim to rim, five cubits in height, and thirty cubits in circumference.

3
English · Berean Standard Bible

Below the rim, figures of oxen encircled it, ten per cubit all the way around the Sea, cast in two rows as a part of the Sea.

4
English · Berean Standard Bible

The Sea stood on twelve oxen, three facing north, three facing west, three facing south, and three facing east. The Sea rested on them, with all their hindquarters toward the center.

5
English · Berean Standard Bible

It was a handbreadth thick, and its rim was fashioned like the brim of a cup, like a lily blossom. It could hold three thousand baths.

6
English · Berean Standard Bible

He also made ten basins for washing and placed five on the south side and five on the north. The parts of the burnt offering were rinsed in them, but the priests used the Sea for washing.

7
English · Berean Standard Bible

He made ten gold lampstands according to their specifications and placed them in the temple, five on the south side and five on the north.

8
English · Berean Standard Bible

Additionally, he made ten tables and placed them in the temple, five on the south side and five on the north. He also made a hundred gold bowls.

9
English · Berean Standard Bible

He made the courtyard of the priests and the large court with its doors, and he overlaid the doors with bronze.

10
English · Berean Standard Bible

He put the Sea on the south side, at the southeast corner.

11
English · Berean Standard Bible

Additionally, Huram made the pots, shovels, and sprinkling bowls. So Huram finished the work that he had undertaken for King Solomon in the house of God:

12
English · Berean Standard Bible

the two pillars; the two bowl-shaped capitals atop the pillars; the two sets of network covering both bowls of the capitals atop the pillars;

13
English · Berean Standard Bible

the four hundred pomegranates for the two sets of network (two rows of pomegranates for each network covering both the bowl-shaped capitals atop the pillars);

14
English · Berean Standard Bible

the stands; the basins on the stands;

15
English · Berean Standard Bible

the Sea; the twelve oxen underneath the Sea;

16
English · Berean Standard Bible

and the pots, shovels, meat forks, and all the other articles. All these objects that Huram-abi made for King Solomon for the house of the LORD were of polished bronze.

17
English · Berean Standard Bible

The king had them cast in clay molds in the plain of the Jordan between Succoth and Zeredah.

18
English · Berean Standard Bible

Solomon made all these articles in such great abundance that the weight of the bronze could not be determined.

19
English · Berean Standard Bible

Solomon also made all the furnishings for the house of God: the golden altar; the tables on which was placed the Bread of the Presence;

20
English · Berean Standard Bible

the lampstands of pure gold and their lamps, to burn in front of the inner sanctuary as prescribed;

21
English · Berean Standard Bible

the flowers, lamps, and tongs of gold—of purest gold;

22
English · Berean Standard Bible

the wick trimmers, sprinkling bowls, ladles, and censers of pure gold; and the gold doors of the temple: the inner doors to the Most Holy Place as well as the doors of the main hall.
