Revised Version 1895
1 Kings 7:27-43
27And he madeH6213 the tenH6235 bases of brassH5178; fourH702 cubitsH520 was the lengthH753 of one baseH753, and fourH702 cubitsH520 the breadthH7341 thereof, and threeH7969 cubitsH520 the heightH6967 of it.
28And the workH4639 of the bases was on this manner: they had bordersH4526; and there were bordersH4526 betweenH996 the ledges:
29and on the bordersH4526 that were betweenH996 the ledges were lionsH738, oxenH1241, and cherubimH3742; and uponH5921 the ledges there was a pedestalH3653 aboveH5921: and beneathH8478 the lionsH738 and oxenH1241 were wreathsH3914 of hangingH4174 workH4639.
30And everyH376 base had fourH702 brasen wheelsH212, and axlesH5633 of brassH5178: and the fourH702 feetH6471 thereof had undersetters: beneathH8478 the laverH3595 were the undersetters molten, with wreathsH3914 at the sideH3802 of eachH376.
31And the mouthH6310 of it withinH5921 the chapiter and aboveH5921 was a cubitH520: and the mouthH6310 thereof was roundH5696 afterH5921 the workH4639 of a pedestalH3653, a cubitH520 and an halfH2677: and also uponH5921 the mouthH6310 of it were gravings, and their bordersH4526 were foursquare, notH3808 roundH5696.
32And the fourH702 wheelsH212 were underneathH8478 the bordersH4526; and the axletrees of the wheelsH212 were in the base: and the heightH6967 of a wheelH212 was a cubitH520 and halfH2677 a cubitH520.
33And the workH4639 of the wheelsH212 was like the workH4639 of a chariotH4818 wheelH212: their axletrees, and their felloes, and their spokesH2839, and their naves, were allH3605 moltenH3332.
34And there were fourH702 undersetters at the fourH702 cornersH6438 of eachH259 base: the undersetters thereof were of the base itself.
35And in the topH7218 of the base was there a roundH5439 compass of halfH2677 a cubitH520 highH6967: and on the topH7218 of the base the staysH3027 thereof and the bordersH4526 thereof were of the sameH4480.
36And on the platesH3871 of the staysH3027 thereof, and on the bordersH4526 thereof, he graved cherubimH3742, lionsH738, and palmH8561 tress, accordingH5921 to the spaceH4626 of eachH376, with wreathsH3914 roundH5439 aboutH5439.
37After this manner he madeH6213 the tenH6235 bases: allH3605 of them had one castingH4165, one measure, and one formH7095.
38And he madeH6213 tenH6235 lavers of brassH5178: one laverH3595 contained fortyH705 bathsH1324: and everyH259 laverH3595 was fourH702 cubitsH520: and uponH5921 everyH259 one of the tenH6235 bases one laverH3595.
39And he setH5414 the bases, fiveH2568 on the rightH3225 sideH3802 of the houseH1004, and fiveH2568 on the leftH8040 sideH3802 of the houseH1004: and he setH5414 the seaH3220 on the rightH3225 sideH3802 of the houseH1004 eastwardH6924, towardH5921 the southH5045.
40And HiramH2438 madeH6213 the lavers, and the shovelsH3257, and the basons. SoH6213 HiramH2438 madeH6213 an endH3615 of doingH6213 allH3605 the workH4399 that he wrought for kingH4428 SolomonH8010 in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068:
41the twoH8147 pillarsH5982, and the twoH8147 bowlsH1543 of the chapiters that were on the topH7218 of the pillarsH5982; and the twoH8147 networksH7639 to coverH3680 the twoH8147 bowlsH1543 of the chapiters that were on the topH7218 of the pillarsH5982;
42and the fourH702 hundredH3967 pomegranatesH7416 for the twoH8147 networksH7639; twoH8147 rowsH2905 of pomegranatesH7416 for eachH259 networkH7639, to coverH3680 the twoH8147 bowlsH1543 of the chapiters that were uponH5921 the pillarsH5982;
43and the tenH6235 bases, and the tenH6235 lavers on the bases;
