“ For the Lord of Heaven’s Armies has spoken about the pillars in front of the Temple, the great bronze basin called the Sea, the water carts, and all the other ceremonial articles.

因为万军之耶和华论到柱子、铜海、盆座，并剩在这城里的器皿，

万军之耶和华这样论柱子、铜海、盆座，并留在这城里剩下的器皿，

因为万军之耶和华这样说，论到这些柱子、铜海、盆座和留在这城其余的器皿，

因為萬軍之耶和華論到柱子、銅海、盆座，並剩在這城裏的器皿，

萬軍之耶和華這樣論柱子、銅海、盆座，並留在這城裏剩下的器皿，

萬軍之耶和華這樣論柱子、銅海、盆座，並留在這城裏剩下的器皿，

因為萬軍之耶和華這樣說，論到這些柱子、銅海、盆座和留在這城其餘的器皿，

因為萬軍之永恆主是這麼說、論到這些柱子、這些銅海、和盆座、以及剩在這城裏的器皿、

萬軍之耶和華、言及銅柱銅海銅座、暨所遺於斯邑之器、

萬有之主耶和華曰、昔巴比倫王尼布甲尼撒、擄猶大王約雅金子約雅斤、及猶大耶路撒冷諸世職、自耶路撒冷、至巴比倫時、不取柱、與盤、及座、暨所遺邑內諸器皿。

萬有之主、有言論及銅柱銅海、與盤座、及斯邑所遺諸器皿、

For Yahweh of Armies says concerning the pillars, concerning the sea, concerning the bases, and concerning the rest of the vessels that are left in this city,

The Babylonians broke up the bronze pillars in front of the Lord’s Temple, the bronze water carts, and the great bronze basin called the Sea, and they carried all the bronze away to Babylon.

The Babylonians broke up the bronze pillars in front of the Lord’s Temple, the bronze water carts, and the great bronze basin called the Sea, and they carried all the bronze away to Babylon.They also took all the ash buckets, shovels, lamp snuffers, basins, dishes, and all the other bronze articles used for making sacrifices at the Temple.The captain of the guard also took the small bowls, incense burners, basins, pots, lampstands, ladles, bowls used for liquid offerings, and all the other articles made of pure gold or silver.The weight of the bronze from the two pillars, the Sea with the twelve bronze oxen beneath it, and the water carts was too great to be measured. These things had been made for the Lord’s Temple in the days of King Solomon.Each of the pillars was 27 feet tall and 18 feet in circumference. They were hollow, with walls 3 inches thick.The bronze capital on top of each pillar was 7 1/2 feet high and was decorated with a network of bronze pomegranates all the way around.There were 96 pomegranates on the sides, and a total of 100 pomegranates on the network around the top.

Each of the pillars was 27 feet tall. The bronze capital on top of each pillar was 7 1/2 feet high and was decorated with a network of bronze pomegranates all the way around.

Then he cast a great round basin, 15 feet across from rim to rim, called the Sea. It was 7 1/2 feet deep and about 45 feet in circumference.It was encircled just below its rim by two rows of figures that resembled oxen. There were about six oxen per foot all the way around, and they were cast as part of the basin.The Sea was placed on a base of twelve bronze oxen, all facing outward. Three faced north, three faced west, three faced south, and three faced east, and the Sea rested on them.The walls of the Sea were about three inches thick, and its rim flared out like a cup and resembled a water lily blossom. It could hold about 16,500 gallons of water.He also made ten smaller basins for washing the utensils for the burnt offerings. He set five on the south side and five on the north. But the priests washed themselves in the Sea.He then cast ten gold lampstands according to the specifications that had been given, and he put them in the Temple. Five were placed against the south wall, and five were placed against the north wall.He also built ten tables and placed them in the Temple, five along the south wall and five along the north wall. Then he molded 100 gold basins.He then built a courtyard for the priests, and also the large outer courtyard. He made doors for the courtyard entrances and overlaid them with bronze.The great bronze basin called the Sea was placed near the southeast corner of the Temple.Huram abi also made the necessary washbasins, shovels, and bowls. So at last Huram abi completed everything King Solomon had assigned him to make for the Temple of God:the two pillars; the two bowl shaped capitals on top of the pillars; the two networks of interwoven chains that decorated the capitals;the 400 pomegranates that hung from the chains on the capitals( two rows of pomegranates for each of the chain networks that decorated the capitals on top of the pillars);the water carts holding the basins;the Sea and the twelve oxen under it;the ash buckets, the shovels, the meat hooks, and all the related articles. Huram abi made all these things of burnished bronze for the Temple of the Lord, just as King Solomon had directed.

Huram cast two bronze pillars, each 27 feet tall and 18 feet in circumference.For the tops of the pillars he cast bronze capitals, each 7 1/2 feet tall.Each capital was decorated with seven sets of latticework and interwoven chains.He also encircled the latticework with two rows of pomegranates to decorate the capitals over the pillars.The capitals on the columns inside the entry room were shaped like water lilies, and they were six feet tall.The capitals on the two pillars had 200 pomegranates in two rows around them, beside the rounded surface next to the latticework.Huram set the pillars at the entrance of the Temple, one toward the south and one toward the north. He named the one on the south Jakin, and the one on the north Boaz.The capitals on the pillars were shaped like water lilies. And so the work on the pillars was finished.
