* Moreover he made a bronze altar : twenty cubits was its length , twenty cubits its width , and ten cubits its height . * Then he made the Sea of cast bronze , ten cubits from one brim to the other ; it was completely round . Its height was five cubits , and a line of thirty cubits measured its circumference . * And under it was the likeness of oxen encircling it all around , ten to a cubit , all the way around the Sea . The oxen were cast in two rows , when it was cast . * It stood on twelve oxen : three looking toward the north , three looking toward the west , three looking toward the south , and three looking toward the east ; the Sea was set upon them , and all their back parts pointed inward . * It was a handbreadth thick ; and its brim was shaped like the brim of a cup , like a lily blossom . It contained three thousand baths . * He also made ten lavers , and put five on the right side and five on the left , to wash in them ; such things as they offered for the burnt offering they would wash in them , but the Sea was for the priests to wash in . * And he made ten lampstands of gold according to their design , and set them in the temple , five on the right side and five on the left . * He also made ten tables , and placed them in the temple , five on the right side and five on the left . And he made one hundred bowls of gold . * Furthermore he made the court of the priests , and the great court and doors for the court ; and he overlaid these doors with bronze . * He set the Sea on the right side , toward the southeast . * Then Huram made the pots and the shovels and the bowls . So Huram finished doing the work that he was to do for King Solomon for the house of God : * the two pillars and the bowl-shaped capitals that were on top of the two pillars ; the two networks covering the two bowl-shaped capitals which were on top of the pillars ; * four hundred pomegranates for the two networks (two rows of pomegranates for each network , to cover the two bowl-shaped capitals that were on the pillars ); * he also made carts and the lavers on the carts ; * one Sea and twelve oxen under it ; * also the pots , the shovels , the forks--and all their articles Huram his master craftsman made of burnished bronze for King Solomon for the house of the LORD . * In the plain of Jordan the king had them cast in clay molds , between Succoth and Zeredah . * And Solomon had all these articles made in such great abundance that the weight of the bronze was not determined . * Thus Solomon had all the furnishings made for the house of God : the altar of gold and the tables on which was the showbread ; * the lampstands with their lamps of pure gold , to burn in the prescribed manner in front of the inner sanctuary , * with the flowers and the lamps and the wick-trimmers of gold , of purest gold ; * the trimmers , the bowls , the ladles , and the censers of pure gold . As for the entry of the sanctuary , its inner doors to the Most Holy Place , and the doors of the main hall of the temple , were gold .
