Jeremiah 52:17-23
17Now the bronze 1pillars which belonged to the house of the Lord and the 2stands and the bronze 34sea, which were in the house of the Lord, the Chaldeans smashed to pieces and carried all their bronze to Babylon. 18They also took the 5pots, the shovels, the snuffers, the basins, the 6pans, and all the bronze vessels which were used in temple service. 19The captain of the guard also took the 7bowls, the firepans, the basins, the pots, the lampstands, the 8pans, and the drink offering bowls, whatever was fine gold, and whatever was fine silver. 20The two pillars, the one 9sea, and the twelve bronze bulls that were under 10the sea, and the stands, which King Solomon had made for the house of the Lord--the bronze of all these vessels was 11beyond weight. 21As for the pillars, the 12height of each pillar was 13eighteen cubits, and 14it was twelve cubits in 15circumference and four fingers in thickness, and hollow. 22Also, a 16capital of bronze was on top of it; and the height of each capital was 17five cubits, with latticework and 18pomegranates on the capital all around, all of bronze. And the second pillar was like these, including pomegranates. 23There were ninety-six 19exposed pomegranates; all 20the pomegranates numbered a hundred on the latticework all around.
