2 Chronicles 4:1-7 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

1. And he made an altar of bronze, twenty cubits long, and twenty cubits wide, and ten cubits high.

2. And he made the Sea of cast metal, ten cubits from one rim to the other, round all about. And its height was five cubits, and a line of thirty cubits measured around it.

3. And figures like oxen were under it, all around it, ten to a cubit, all the way around the Sea. Two rows of oxen were cast when it was cast.

4. It stood on twelve oxen, three facing north, and three facing west, and three facing south, and three facing east. And the Sea was set upon them, and all their back parts were inward.

5. And it was a handbreadth thick, and its rim was shaped like the rim of a cup, like a lily blossom. It held three thousand baths.

6. And he made ten basins, and put five on the right side and five on the left, to wash in them. In them they rinsed off what pertains to the burnt offering, but the Sea was for the priests to wash in.

7. And he made ten lampstands of gold according to their ruling, and set them in the Hĕḵal, five on the right side and five on the left.
