1พงศ์กษัตริย์ 7:27-43
He also made ten movable stands of bronze; each was four cubits long, four wide and three high.This is how the stands were made: They had side panels attached to uprights.On the panels between the uprights were lions, bulls and cherubim— and on the uprights as well. Above and below the lions and bulls were wreaths of hammered work.Each stand had four bronze wheels with bronze axles, and each had a basin resting on four supports, cast with wreaths on each side.On the inside of the stand there was an opening that had a circular frame one cubit deep. This opening was round, and with its basework it measured a cubit and a half. Around its opening there was engraving.

The supports and panels were attached to the top of the stand.He engraved cherubim, lions and palm trees on the surfaces of the supports and on the panels, in every available space, with wreaths all around.This is the way he made the ten stands. They were all cast in the same molds and were identical in size and shape.He then made ten bronze basins, each holding forty baths and measuring four cubits across, one basin to go on each of the ten stands.He placed five of the stands on the south side of the temple and five on the north. He placed the Sea on the south side, at the southeast corner of the temple.He also made the pots and shovels and sprinkling bowls. So Huram finished all the work he had undertaken for King Solomon in the temple of the Lord:the two pillars; the two bowl-shaped capitals on top of the pillars; the two sets of network decorating the two bowl-shaped capitals on top of the pillars;the four hundred pomegranates for the two sets of network( two rows of pomegranates for each network decorating the bowl- shaped capitals on top of the pillars);the ten stands with their ten basins; (niv)
