1 MOREOVER he made an altar of brass, twenty cubits its length and twenty cubits its breadth and ten cubits its height. 2 land he made a molten sea of ten cubits from brim to brim, round in shape, and five cubits its height and thirty cubits its circumference. 3 And it stood upon twelve oxen, three facing north, three facing south, three facing west, and three facing east; and the sea was set above them, and their hinder parts were inward. 4 And the thickness of it was a handbreadth, and its brim was round like the brim of a cup, very beautiful. 5 And he made also ten poles, and put five on the right hand and five on the left, to carry with them the altar of burnt offering. 6 And he made ten lavers of brass, and put five on the right hand and five on the left, so that the priests might wash their hands and their feet in them. 7 And he made ten candlesticks of gold according to their specifications, and set them in the temple, five on the right hand and five on the left. 8 He made also ten tables, and placed them in the temple, five on the right side and five on the left. And he made a hundred basins of fine gold. 9 Furthermore he made a large court for the priests and for the Levites, and overlaid the doors and the bars with brass. 10 And he set the sea on the right side of the north end, over against the south. 11 And Hiram made the pots, and the shovels, and the basins. And Hiram finished the work that he was to make for King Solomon for the house of God; 2 Chronicles 4:1-11, Lamsa Bible. Public domain.
