1 Kings 7:15-26
15For he fashioned the twoH8147 pillarsH5982 of brassH5178, of eighteenH6240 cubitsH520 highH6967 apieceH259: and a lineH2339 of twelveH6240 cubitsH520 compassed either of them aboutH5437.
16And he madeH6213 twoH8147 chapiters of moltenH3332 brassH5178, to setH5414 uponH5921 the topsH7218 of the pillarsH5982: the heightH6967 of the one chapiter was fiveH2568 cubitsH520, and the heightH6967 of the otherH259 chapiter was fiveH2568 cubitsH520.
17There were netsH7639 of checker workH4639, and wreathsH1434 of chain workH4639, for the chapiters whichH834 were uponH5921 the topH7218 of the pillarsH5982; sevenH7651 for the one chapiter, and sevenH7651 for the otherH259 chapiter.
18SoH3651 he madeH6213 the pillarsH5982; and there were twoH8147 rowsH2905 roundH5439 aboutH5439 uponH5921 the one networkH7639, to coverH3680 the chapiters that were uponH5921 the topH7218 of the pillarsH5982: and soH3651 didH6213 he for the otherH259 chapiter.
19And the chapiters that were uponH5921 the topH7218 of the pillarsH5982 in the porchH197 were of lilyH7799 workH4639, fourH702 cubitsH520.
20And there were chapiters aboveH5921 also uponH5921 the twoH8147 pillarsH5982, closeH5980 by the bellyH990 whichH834 was besideH5921 the networkH7639: and the pomegranatesH7416 were twoH8147 hundredH3967, in rowsH2905 roundH5439 aboutH5439 uponH5921 the otherH8145 chapiter.
21And he setH6965 upH6965 the pillarsH5982 at the porchH197 of the templeH1964: and he setH6965 upH6965 the rightH3233 pillarH5982, and calledH7121 the nameH8034 thereof JachinH3199: and he setH6965 upH6965 the leftH8042 pillarH5982, and calledH7121 the nameH8034 thereof BoazH1162.
22And uponH5921 the topH7218 of the pillarsH5982 was lilyH7799 workH4399: soH5921 was the workH4399 of the pillarsH5982 finishedH8552.
23And he madeH6213 the molten seaH3220 of tenH6235 cubitsH520 from brimH8193 to brimH8193, roundH5439 in compass, and the heightH6967 thereof was fiveH2568 cubitsH520: and a line of thirtyH7970 cubitsH520 compassed it roundH5439 aboutH5439.
24And underH8478 the brimH8193 of it roundH5439 aboutH5439 there were knops which did compass it, for tenH6235 cubitsH520, compassing the seaH3220 roundH5439 aboutH5439: the knops were in twoH8147 rowsH2905, castH3332 when it was castH3332.
25It stoodH5975 uponH5921 twelveH6240 oxenH1241, threeH7969 looking towardH5921 the northH6828, and threeH7969 looking towardH5921 the westH3220, and threeH7969 looking towardH5921 the southH5045, and threeH7969 looking towardH5921 the eastH4217: and the seaH3220 was setH5975 uponH5921 them aboveH5921, and allH3605 their hinder partsH268 were inwardH1004.
26And it was an handbreadthH2947 thickH5672; and the brimH8193 thereof was wroughtH4639 like the brimH8193 of a cupH3563, like the flowerH6525 of a lilyH7799: it heldH3557 twoH3557 thousandH505 bathsH1324.
