1 KINGS 7:36-51

7:36 And on the surfaces of the stays and on its panels he engraved cherubim, lions, and palm trees, as there was space on each, with wreaths all around.
7:37 In this manner he made the ten bases; all of them had one casting, one measure, and one form.
7:38 And he made ten bronze lavers; each laver held forty baths; each laver was four cubits across; there was one laver upon every one of the ten bases.
7:39 And he set the bases, five on the right side of the house and five on the left side of the house; and the sea he set on the right side of the house, on the east side at the south.
7:40 And Hiram made the pots and the shovels and the bowls.
Thus Hiram finished doing all the work that he was doing for King Solomon in the house of Jehovah:
7:41 The two pillars, and the two bowls of the capitals that were at the top of the pillars, and the two networks to cover the two bowls of the capitals that were at the top of the pillars;
7:42 And the four hundred pomegranates for the two networks, two rows of pomegranates for each network, to cover the two bowls of the capitals that were on the pillars;
7:43 And the ten bases and the ten lavers upon the bases;
7:44 And the one sea and the twelve oxen under the sea;
7:45 And the pots and the shovels and the bowls; all these vessels that Hiram made for King Solomon in the house of Jehovah were of burnished bronze.
7:46 The king cast them in the plain of the Jordan, in the clay ground between Succoth and Zarethan.
7:47 And Solomon left all the vessels unweighed because of the very great number; the weight of bronze could not be ascertained.
7:48 And Solomon made all the vessels that were in the house of Jehovah: the golden altar; and the golden table upon which the bread of the Presence was put;
7:49 And the lampstands of pure gold, five on the right and five on the left, before the innermost sanctuary; and the flowers and the lamps and the tongs, of gold;
7:50 And the cups and the snuffers and the bowls and the cups and the firepans, of pure gold; and the hinges, for the doors of the inner house, the Holy of Holies, and for the doors of the house of the temple, of gold.
7:51 Thus all the work that King Solomon did in the house of Jehovah was finished. And Solomon brought in the things that David his father had sanctified, the silver and the gold and the vessels, and he put them in the treasuries of the house of Jehovah.
