New Testament

1 Kings 7:25-30 New Century Version (NCV)

25. The bowl rested on the backs of twelve bronze bulls that faced outward from the center of the bowl. Three bulls faced north, three faced west, three faced south, and three faced east.

26. The sides of the bowl were four inches thick, and it held about eleven thousand gallons. The rim of the bowl was like the rim of a cup or like a lily blossom.

27. Then Huram made ten bronze stands, each one six feet long, six feet wide, and four and one-half feet high.

28. The stands were made from square sides, which were put on frames.

29. On the sides were bronze lions, bulls, and creatures with wings. On the frames above and below the lions and bulls were designs of flowers hammered into the bronze.

30. Each stand had four bronze wheels with bronze axles. At the corners there were bronze supports for a large bowl, and the supports had designs of flowers.
