²⁰ And there were capitals also above upon the two pillars, close by the protuberance which was beside the network. And the pomegranates were two hundred, in rows round about upon the other capital.

⁴² and the four hundred pomegranates for the two networks, two rows of pomegranates for each network, to cover the two bowls of the capitals that were upon the pillars,

¹³ Thy shoots are an orchard of pomegranates, with precious fruits, henna with spikenard plants,

²⁷ And he made the ten bases of brass; four cubits was the length of one base, and four cubits the breadth of it, and three cubits the height of it. ²⁸ And the work of the bases was on this manner: They had panels, and there were panels between the ledges. ²⁹ And on the panels that were between the ledges were lions, oxen, and cherubim. And upon the ledges there was a pedestal above. And beneath the lions and oxen were wreaths of hanging work. ³⁰ And every base had four brazen wheels, and axles of brass. And the four corners of it had supports. Beneath the laver were the molten supports with wreaths at the side of each. ³¹ And the mouth of it within the capital and above was a cubit. And the mouth of it was round after the work of a pedestal, a cubit and a half. And also upon the mouth of it were engravings. And their panels were foursquare, not round. ³² And the four wheels were underneath the panels. And the axletrees of the wheels were in the base. And the height of a wheel was a cubit and half a cubit. ³³ And the work of the wheels was like the work of a chariot wheel. Their axletrees, and their felloes, and their spokes, and their naves, were all molten. ³⁴ And there were four supports at the four corners of each base. The supports of it were of the base itself. ³⁵ And in the top of the base there was a round band half a cubit high. And on the top of the base the ledges of it and the panels of it were of the same. ³⁶ And on the plates of the ledges of it, and on the panels of it, he engraved cherubim, lions, and palm trees, according to the space of each, with wreaths round about. ³⁷ After this manner he made the ten bases: all of them had one casting, one measure, and one form. ³⁸ And he made ten basins of brass. One basin contained forty baths. And every basin was four cubits. And upon every one of the ten bases one basin. ³⁹ And he set the bases, five on the right side of the house, and five on the left side of the house. And he set the sea on the right side of the house eastward, toward the south. ⁴⁰ And Hiram made the basins, and the shovels, and the bowls. So Hiram made an end of doing all the work that he wrought for king Solomon in the house of LORD: ⁴¹ the two pillars, and the two bowls of the capitals that were on the top of the pillars, and the two networks to cover the two bowls of the capitals that were on the top of the pillars, ⁴² and the four hundred pomegranates for the two networks, two rows of pomegranates for each network, to cover the two bowls of the capitals that were upon the pillars, ⁴³ and the ten bases, and the ten basins on the bases,

¹³ And the custom of the priests with the people was, that, when any man offered sacrifice, the priest's servant came, while the flesh was boiling, with a flesh-hook of three teeth in his hand, ¹⁴ and he struck it into the pan, or kettle, or caldron, or pot. All that the flesh-hook brought up the priest took with it. So they did in Shiloh to all the Israelites who came there.

¹³ And king Solomon sent and fetched Hiram out of Tyre. ¹⁴ He was the son of a widow of the tribe of Naphtali, and his father was a man of Tyre, a workman in brass. And he was filled with wisdom and understanding and skill, to work all works in brass. And he came to king Solomon, and wrought all his work.

⁴⁵ and the pots, and the shovels, and the bowls. And all these vessels, which Hiram made for king Solomon in the house of LORD were of burnished brass.

¹⁷ and the flesh-hooks, and the basins, and the cups, of pure gold, and for the golden bowls by weight for every bowl, and for the silver bowls by weight for every bowl,

¹³ And now I have sent a skilful man, endued with understanding, of Huram my father's,

¹¹ And Huram made the pots, and the shovels, and the basins. So Huram made an end of doing the work that he wrought for king Solomon in the house of God:

²⁰ In that day there shall be upon the bells of the horses, HOLY TO JEHOVAH, and the pots in LORD's house shall be like the bowls before the altar. ²¹ Yea, every pot in Jerusalem and in Judah shall be holy to LORD of hosts. And all those who sacrifice shall come and take of them, and boil in it. And in that day there shall be no more a Canaanite in the house of LORD of hosts.

⁴⁶ The king cast them in the plain of the Jordan, in the clay ground between Succoth and Zarethan. ⁴⁷ And Solomon left all the vessels unweighed because they were very many; the weight of the brass could not be found out.

³ And David prepared iron in abundance for the nails for the doors of the gates, and for the couplings, and brass in abundance without weight,

¹⁴ Now, behold, in my affliction I have prepared for the house of LORD a hundred thousand talents of gold, and a million talents of silver, and of brass and iron without weight, for it is in abundance. Also I have prepared timber and stone, and thou may add thereto.

²⁰ The two pillars, the one sea, and the twelve brazen bulls that were under the bases, which king Solomon had made for the house of LORD-the brass of all these vessels was without weight.

Once in the year he shall make atonement for it throughout your generations. It is most holy to LORD.

²⁵ And he made the altar of incense of acacia wood: a cubit was the length of it, and a cubit the breadth of it, foursquare, and two cubits was the height of it.

¹³ And he carried out from there all the treasures of the house of LORD, and the treasures of the king's house, and cut in pieces all the vessels of gold, which Solomon king of Israel had made in the temple of LORD, as LORD had said.

¹³ And the pillars of brass that were in the house of LORD, and the bases and the brazen sea that were in the house of LORD, the Chaldeans broke in pieces, and carried the brass of them to Babylon. ¹⁴ And they took away the pots, and the shovels, and the snuffers, and the spoons, and all the vessels of brass with which they ministered. ¹⁵ And the captain of the guard took away the firepans, and the basins, that which was of gold, in gold, and that which was of silver, in silver.

¹⁶ and the gold by weight for the tables of showbread, for every table, and silver for the tables of silver,

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 gold.

¹⁶ But when he was strong, his heart was lifted up, so that he did corruptly, and he trespassed against LORD his God. For he went into the temple of LORD to burn incense upon the altar of incense. ¹⁷ And Azariah the priest went in after him, and with him eighty priests of LORD, who were valiant men. ¹⁸ And they withstood Uzziah the king, and said to him, It does not pertain to thee, Uzziah, to burn incense to LORD, but to the priests the sons of Aaron who are consecrated to burn incense. Go out of the sanctuary. For thou have trespassed, neither shall it be for thine honor from LORD God.

¹⁰ And at the return of the year king Nebuchadnezzar sent, and brought him to Babylon, with the good vessels of the house of LORD, and made Zedekiah his brother king over Judah and Jerusalem.

¹⁸ And all the vessels of the house of God, great and small, and the treasures of the house of LORD, and the treasures of the king, and of his rulers, all these he brought to Babylon.

⁷ Also Cyrus the king brought forth the vessels of the house of LORD, which Nebuchadnezzar had brought forth out of Jerusalem, and had put in the house of his gods, ⁸ even those Cyrus king of Persia brought forth by the hand of Mithredath the treasurer, and numbered them to Sheshbazzar, the ruler of Judah. ⁹ And this is the number of them: thirty platters of gold, a thousand platters of silver, twenty-nine knives, ¹⁰ thirty bowls of gold, four hundred and ten silver bowls of a second sort, and a thousand other vessels. ¹¹ All the vessels of gold and of silver were five thousand and four hundred. All these Sheshbazzar brought up when those of the captivity were brought up from Babylon to Jerusalem.

³ Within two full years I will bring again into this place all the vessels of LORD's house that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon took away from this place, and carried to Babylon.

² Belshazzar, while he tasted the wine, commanded to bring the golden and silver vessels which Nebuchadnezzar his father had taken out of the temple which was in Jerusalem, that the king and his lords, his wives and his concubines, might drink from there. ³ Then they brought the golden vessels that were taken out of the temple of the house of God which was at Jerusalem. And the king and his lords, his wives and his concubines, drank from them.

²³ but have lifted up thyself against the Lord of heaven. And they have brought the vessels of his house before thee, and thou and thy lords, thy wives and thy concubines, have drunk wine from them. And thou have praised the gods of silver and gold, of brass, iron, wood, and stone, which neither see, nor hear, nor know. And the God in whose hand thy breath is, and whose are all thy ways, thou have not glorified.

³ And another agent came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer. And much incense was given to him, so that he would give with the prayers of all the sanctified upon the golden altar before the throne.

¹³ And the sixth agent sounded, and I heard a voice, one from the four horns of the golden altar before God,

³¹ And thou shall make a lampstand of pure gold. Of beaten work shall the lampstand be made, even its base, and its shaft, its cups, its knobs, and its flowers, shall be of one piece with it. ³² And there shall be six branches going out of the sides of it, three branches of the lampstand out of the one side of it, and three branches of the lampstand out of the other side of it: ³³ three cups made like almond-blossoms in one branch, a knob and a flower, and three cups made like almond-blossoms in the other branch, a knob and a flower, so for the six branches going out of the lampstand, ³⁴ and in the lampstand four cups made like almond-blossoms, the knobs of it, and the flowers of it. ³⁵ And a knob under two branches of one piece with it, and a knob under two branches of one piece with it, and a knob under two branches of one piece with it, for the six branches going out of the lampstand. ³⁶ Their knobs and their branches shall be of one piece with it, the whole of it one beaten work of pure gold. ³⁷ And thou shall make the lamps of it, seven. And they shall light the lamps of it, to give light in front of it.

²⁰ And thou shall command the sons of Israel, that they bring to thee pure beaten olive oil for the light, to cause a lamp to burn continually ²¹ in the tent of meeting, outside the veil which is before the testimony. Aaron and his sons shall keep it in order from evening to morning before LORD. It shall be a statute forever throughout their generations on the behalf of the sons of Israel.

⁵ And against the wall of the house he built stories round about, against the walls of the house round about, both of the temple and of the oracle. And he made side-chambers round about.

¹⁶ And he built twenty cubits on the hinder part of the house with boards of cedar from the floor to the walls of the ceiling. He built them for it inside, for an oracle, even for the most holy place. ¹⁷ And the house, that is, the temple in front of the oracle, was forty cubits long.

⁶ And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of LORD to its place, into the oracle of the house, to the most holy place, even under the wings of the cherubim.

⁷ And he made the ten lampstands of gold according to the ordinance concerning them. And he set them in the temple, five on the right hand, and five on the left.

² Hear the voice of my supplications when I cry to thee, when I lift up my hands toward thy holy oracle.

²⁰ And in the lampstand were four cups made like almond-blossoms, the knobs of it, and the flowers of it,

¹⁸ And there was cedar on the house inside, carved with knops and open flowers. All was cedar; there was no stone seen.

²⁹ And he carved all the walls of the house round about with carved figures of cherubim and palm trees and open flowers, inside and outside.

³⁵ And he carved thereon cherubim and palm trees and open flowers. And he overlaid them with gold fitted upon the graven work.

⁵ And it was a handbreadth thick. And the brim of it was wrought like the brim of a cup, like the flower of a lily. It received and held three thousand baths.

²³ And he made the lamps of it, seven, and the snuffers of it, and the snuff dishes of it, of pure gold.

³¹ And for the entrance of the oracle he made doors of olive-wood. The lintel and door-posts were a fifth part of the wall. ³² So he made two doors of olive-wood. And he carved upon them carvings of cherubim and palm trees and open flowers, and overlaid them with gold. And he spread the gold upon the cherubim, and upon the palm trees.

⁵⁰ and the cups, and the snuffers, and the basins, and the spoons, and the firepans, of pure gold, and the hinges, both for the doors of the inner house, the most holy place, and for the doors of the house, namely, of the temple, of gold.

¹³ But there were not made for the house of LORD cups of silver, snuffers, basins, trumpets, any vessels of gold, or vessels of silver, of the money that was brought into the house of LORD,

¹⁴ And they took away the pots, and the shovels, and the snuffers, and the spoons, and all the vessels of brass with which they ministered.

¹⁸ The pots also, and the shovels, and the snuffers, and the basins, and the spoons, and all the vessels of brass with which they ministered, they took away.
