2 Kings 25:13-17
131Now the Chaldeans smashed to pieces the bronze pillars which were in the house of the Lord, and the stands and 2the bronze 3Sea which were in the house of the Lord, and carried the 4bronze to Babylon. 145And they took away the pots, the shovels, the 6shears, the spoons, and all the bronze utensils 7which were used in temple service. 15The captain of the bodyguards 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--89the bronze of all these articles was too heavy to weigh. 1710The height of the one pillar was 11eighteen cubits, and a bronze capital was on it; the height of the capital was 12three cubits, with latticework and pomegranates on the capital all around, all of bronze. And the second pillar was like these, same features with latticework.
