New Living Translation
2 Chronicles 4:10-22
10The great bronze basin called the Sea was placed near the southeast corner of the Temple.
11Huram-abi also made the necessary washbasins, shovels, and bowls. So at last Huram-abi completed everything King Solomon had assigned him to make for the Temple of God:
12the two pillars; the two bowl-shaped capitals on top of the pillars; the two networks of interwoven chains that decorated the capitals;
13the 400 pomegranates that hung from the chains on the capitals (two rows of pomegranates for each of the chain networks that decorated the capitals on top of the pillars);
14the water carts holding the basins;
15the Sea and the twelve oxen under it;
16the ash buckets, the shovels, the meat hooks, and all the related articles. Huram-abi made all these things of burnished bronze for the Temple of the Lord, just as King Solomon had directed.
17The king had them cast in clay molds in the Jordan Valley between Succoth and Zarethan.
18Solomon used such great quantities of bronze that its weight could not be determined.
19Solomon also made all the furnishings for the Temple of God: the gold altar; the tables for the Bread of the Presence;
20the lampstands and their lamps of solid gold, to burn in front of the Most Holy Place as prescribed;
21the flower decorations, lamps, and tongs—all of the purest gold;
22the lamp snuffers, bowls, ladles, and incense burners—all of solid gold; the doors for the entrances to the Most Holy Place and the main room of the Temple, overlaid with gold.
