1 Kings 7:35-51 Jubilee Bible (JUB)

35. And in the top of the base there was a rounded compass of half a cubit high and on the top of the base, its mouldings and borders which were part of it.

36. For on the tables of the mouldings and on the borders thereof, he made cherubim, lions, and palm trees, in front of the additions of each one round about.

37. After this manner he made ten bases cast in the same manner, of the same size and of the same shape.

38. Then he also made ten lavers of brass; each laver contained forty baths, and each laver measured four cubits; and he set a laver upon each one of the ten bases.

39. And he put five bases on the right side of the house and five on the left side of the house, and he set the sea on the right side of the house to the east towards the Negev.

40. Hiram made the lavers and the shovels and the basins likewise. So Hiram finished all the work that he made King Solomon for the house of the Lord:

41. That is, the two pillars and the two bowls of the chapiters that were on the top of the two pillars and the two networks, to cover the two bowls of the chapiters which were upon the head of the pillars,

42. and four hundred pomegranates for the two networks, even two orders of pomegranates for each network, to cover the two bowls of the chapiters that were upon the heads of the pillars,

43. and the ten bases and ten lavers upon the bases,

44. and one sea and twelve oxen under the sea,

45. and the pots and the shovels and the basins and all the other vessels, which Hiram made to King Solomon for the house of the Lord of bright brass.

46. And the king caused them all to be cast in the plain of the Jordan, in the clay ground between Succoth and Zarthan.

47. And Solomon did not inquire the weight of the brass of all the vessels because they were exceeding many.

48. And Solomon made all the vessels that pertained unto the house of the Lord: an altar of gold, and a table upon which the showbread was, also of gold,

49. and the lampstands of pure gold, five on the right hand, and five on the left, in front of the oracle, with the flowers and the lamps and the tongs of gold,

50. likewise the bowls and the snuffers and the basins and the spoons and the censers of pure gold, also the hinges of gold, both for the doors of the inner house, the holy of holies, and for the doors of the house of the temple.

51. So all the work that King Solomon made for the house of the Lord was complete. And Solomon brought in the things which David, his father, had dedicated, even the silver and the gold and the vessels, and he kept it all in the treasury of the house of the Lord.
