Melachim Alef 7:38-46 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

38. Then made he ten kiyyorot nechoshet (basins of bronze); one kiyor could hold forty baths; and every kiyor was four cubits; and upon each of the ten Mekhonot there was one kiyor (basin).

39. And he put five Mekhonot (Stands) on the right side of the Beis [HaMikdash], and five on the left side of the Beis ; and he set the Yam on the right side of the Beis eastward opposite the south.

40. And Chiram made the kiyyrot, and the ya'im (shovels), and the mizrakot (bowls for sprinkling blood). So Chiram completed all the melakhah (work) that he made for Sh'lomo HaMelech for the Beis Hashem;

41. The two ammudim, and the two bowls of the capitals that were on the top of the two ammudim; and the two networks, decorating the two bowls of the capitals which were upon the top of the ammudim;

42. And four hundred rimonim (pomegranates) for the two networks, even two courses of rimonim (pomegranates) for one network, to decorate the two bowls of the capitals that were upon the ammudim;

43. And the ten Mekhonot (stands), and ten Kiyyorot (basins) on the Mekhonot;

44. And one Yam, and twelve Bakar under the Yam;

45. And the sirot (pots), and the ya'im (shovels), and the mizrakot (bowls for sprinkling blood); and all these kelim (vessels), which Chiram made for Sh'lomo HaMelech for the Beis Hashem were of burnished nechoshet.

46. In the plain of the Yarden did HaMelech cast them, in the clay of the adamah (ground) between Sukkot and Tzartan.
