2 Kings 25:12-17
12But the captain of the guard left some of 1the poorest of the land to be vinedressers and plowmen.
132Now the bronze pillars which were in the house of the Lord, and the stands and 3the bronze sea which were in the house of the Lord, the Chaldeans broke in pieces and carried the 4bronze to Babylon. 145They took away the pots, the shovels, the snuffers, the spoons, and all the bronze vessels which were used in temple service. 15The captain of the guard also took away the firepans and the basins, what was fine gold and what was fine silver. 16The two pillars, the one sea, and the stands which Solomon had made for the house of the Lord--6the bronze of all these vessels was beyond weight. 177The height of the one pillar was eighteen 8cubits, and a bronze capital was on it; the height of the capital was three 9cubits, with a network and pomegranates on the capital all around, all of bronze. And the second pillar was like these with network.
