Jeremiah 52:19-23

19The captain of the guard also took the 1bowls, the firepans, the basins, the pots, the lampstands, the 2pans, and the drink offering bowls, whatever was fine gold, and whatever was fine silver. 20The two pillars, the one 3sea, and the twelve bronze bulls that were under 4the sea, and the stands, which King Solomon had made for the house of the Lord--the bronze of all these vessels was 5beyond weight. 21As for the pillars, the 6height of each pillar was 7eighteen cubits, and 8it was twelve cubits in 9circumference and four fingers in thickness, and hollow. 22Also, a 10capital of bronze was on top of it; and the height of each capital was 11five cubits, with latticework and 12pomegranates on the capital all around, all of bronze. And the second pillar was like these, including pomegranates. 23There were ninety-six 13exposed pomegranates; all 14the pomegranates numbered a hundred on the latticework all around.
