15For he castH6696 twoH8147 pillarsH5982 of brassH5178, of eighteenH6240H8083 cubitsH520 highH6967 apieceH259H5982: and a lineH2339 of twelveH6240H8147 cubitsH520 did compassH5437 eitherH8145 of them aboutH5437.1 16And he madeH6213 twoH8147 chapitersH3805 of moltenH3332 brassH5178, to setH5414 upon the topsH7218 of the pillarsH5982: the heightH6967 of the oneH259 chapiterH3805 was fiveH2568 cubitsH520, and the heightH6967 of the otherH8145 chapiterH3805 was fiveH2568 cubitsH520: 17And netsH7638 of checkerH7639 workH4639, and wreathsH1434 of chainH8333 workH4639, for the chapitersH3805 which were upon the topH7218 of the pillarsH5982; sevenH7651 for the oneH259 chapiterH3805, and sevenH7651 for the otherH8145 chapiterH3805. 18And he madeH6213 the pillarsH5982, and twoH8147 rowsH2905 round aboutH5439 upon the oneH259 networkH7639, to coverH3680 the chapitersH3805 that were upon the topH7218, with pomegranatesH7416: and so didH6213 he for the otherH8145 chapiterH3805. 19And the chapitersH3805 that were upon the topH7218 of the pillarsH5982 were of lilyH7799 workH4639 in the porchH197, fourH702 cubitsH520. 20And the chapitersH3805 upon the twoH8147 pillarsH5982 had pomegranates also aboveH4605, over againstH5980 the bellyH990 which was byH5676 the networkH7639: and the pomegranatesH7416 were two hundredH3967 in rowsH2905 round aboutH5439 upon the otherH8145 chapiterH3805. 21And he set upH6965 the pillarsH5982 in the porchH197 of the templeH1964: and he set upH6965 the rightH3233 pillarH5982, and calledH7121 the nameH8034 thereof JachinH3199: and he set upH6965 the leftH8042 pillarH5982, and calledH7121 the nameH8034 thereof BoazH1162.23 22And upon the topH7218 of the pillarsH5982 was lilyH7799 workH4639: so was the workH4399 of the pillarsH5982 finishedH8552.
23And he madeH6213 a moltenH3332 seaH3220, tenH6235 cubitsH520 from the one brimH8193 to the otherH8193: it was roundH5696 all aboutH5439, and his heightH6967 was fiveH2568 cubitsH520: and a lineH6961H6957 of thirtyH7970 cubitsH520 did compassH5437 it round aboutH5439.4 24And under the brimH8193 of it round aboutH5439 there were knopsH6497 compassingH5437 it, tenH6235 in a cubitH520, compassingH5362 the seaH3220 round aboutH5439: the knopsH6497 were castH3333 in twoH8147 rowsH2905, when it was castH3332. 25It stoodH5975 upon twelveH6240H8147 oxenH1241, threeH7969 lookingH6437 toward the northH6828, and threeH7969 lookingH6437 toward the westH3220, and threeH7969 lookingH6437 toward the southH5045, and threeH7969 lookingH6437 toward the eastH4217: and the seaH3220 was set aboveH4605 upon them, and all their hinder partsH268 were inwardH1004. 26And it was an hand breadthH2947 thickH5672, and the brimH8193 thereof was wroughtH4639 like the brimH8193 of a cupH3563, with flowersH6525 of liliesH7799: it containedH3557 two thousandH505 bathsH1324.
