II Chronicles Chapter 4

II Chronicles Chapter 4
1 And he made an altar of brass twenty
cubits long, and twenty cubits broad, and
ten cubits high.
2 And he made a molten sea of ten cubits
from brim to brim, round in compass,
and five cubits high: and a line of thirty
cubits did compass it about. 3 And under
it was the fashion of oxen, which did
compass it round about, ten in a cubit
compassing the sea about: two rows of
oxen were cast when it was molten.
4 It stood upon twelve oxen: three
looked toward the north, and three
looked toward the west, and three
looked toward the south, and three
looked toward the east, and the sea
stood about upon them, and all their
hinder parts were inward.
5 And the thickness thereof was an hand
breadth, and the brim thereof was like
the work of the brim of a cup with
flowers of lilies: it contained three
thousand baths.
6 He made also ten cauldrons, and put
five on the right hand, and five on the
left, to wash in them, and to cleanse in
them that which appertained to the burnt
offerings: but the sea was for the priests
to wash in. 7 And he made ten
candlesticks of gold (according to their
form) and put them in the temple, five on
the right hand, and five on the left.
8 And he made ten tables, and put them
in the temple, five on the right hand, and
five on the left: and he made an hundred
basins of gold.
9 And he made the court of the priests,
and the great court and doors for the
court, and overlaid the doors thereof
with brass.
10 And he set the sea on the right side
eastward toward the south. 11 And
Huram made pots and besoms and
basins, and Huram finished the work that
he should make for king Solomon for the
house of God, 12 To wit, two pillars,
and the bowls and the chapiters on the
top of the two pillars, and two grates to
cover the two bowls of the chapiters
which were upon the top of the pillars:
13 And four hundred pomegranates for
the two grates, two rows of
pomegranates for every grate to cover
the two bowls of the chapiters, that were
upon the pillars.
14 He made also bases, and made
cauldrons upon the bases:
15 And a sea, and twelve bulls under it:
16 Pots also and besoms, and flesh
hooks, and all these vessels made Huram
his father, to king Solomon for the house
of the Lord, of shining brass. 17 In the
plain of Jordan did the king cast them in
clay between Succoth and Zeredathah.
18 And Solomon made all these vessels
in great abundance: for the weight of
brass could not be reckoned.
19 And Solomon made all the vessels
that were for the house of God: the
golden altar also and the tables, whereon
the showbread stood.
20 Moreover the candlesticks, with their
lamps to burn them after the manner,
before the oracle, of pure gold.
21 And the flowers and the lamps, and
the snuffers of gold, which was fine
gold.
22 And the hooks, and the basins, and
the spoons, and the ash pans of pure
gold: the entry also of the house and
doors thereof within, even of the most
holy place: and the doors of the house,
to wit, of the temple were of gold.
