Jeremiah 52:17-20

17The Babylonians broke the two bronze pillars in the temple of the Lord, as well as the movable stands and the large bronze basin called the “The Sea.” They took all the bronze to Babylon.

18They also took the pots, shovels, trimming shears, basins, pans, and all the bronze utensils used by the priests.

19The captain of the royal guard took the gold and silver bowls, censers, basins, pots, lampstands, pans, and vessels.

20The bronze of the items that King Solomon made for the Lord’s temple (including the two pillars, the large bronze basin called “The Sea,” the twelve bronze bulls under “The Sea,” and the movable stands) was too heavy to be weighed.
