[13]And king Solomon sent, and took Chiram out of Tyre, [No book]
[14]the son of a widow woman; and he was of the tribe of Nephthalim, and his father was a Tyrian; a worker in brass, and accomplished in art and skill and knowledge to work every work in brass: and he was brought in to king Solomon, and he wrought all the works. [No book]
[15]And he cast the two pillars for the porch of the house: eighteen cubits was the height of each pillar, and a circumference of fourteen cubits encompassed it, even the thickness of the pillar: the flutings were four fingers wide, and thus was the other pillar formed. [No book]
[16]And he made two molten chapiters to put on the heads of the pillars: five cubits was the height of one chapiter, and five cubits was the height of the other chapiter. [No book]
[17]And he made two ornaments of net-work to cover the chapiters of the pillars; even a net for one chapiter, and a net for the other chapiter. [No book]
[18]And hanging work, two rows of brazen pomegranates, formed with net-work, hanging work, row upon row: and thus he framed the ornaments for the second chapiter. [No book]
[19]And on the heads of the pillars he made lily-work against the porch, of four cubits, [No book]
[20]and a chamber over both the pillars, and above the sides an addition equal to the chamber in width. [No book]
[21]And he set up the pillars of the porch of the temple: and he set up the one pillar, and called its name Jachum: and he set up the second pillar, and called its name Boloz. [No book]
22[No verse] [No book]
[23]And he made the sea, ten cubits from one rim to the other, the same was completely circular round about: its height was five cubits, and its circumference thirty-three cubits. [No book]
[24]And stays underneath its rim round about compassed it ten cubits round; [No book]
[25]And there were twelve oxen under the sea: three looking to the north, and three looking to the west, and three looking to the south, and three looking to the east: and all their hinder parts were inward, and the sea was above upon them. [No book]
[26]and its rim was as the work of the rim of a cup, a lily-flower, and the thickness of it was a span. [No book]
[27]And he made ten brazen bases: five cubits was the length of one base, and four cubits the breadth of it, and its height was six cubits. [No book]
[28]And this work of the bases was formed with a border the them, and there was a border between the ledges. [No book]
[29]And upon their borders between the projection were lions, and oxen, and cherubs: and on the projections, even so above, and also below were the places of lions and oxen, hanging work. [No book]
[30]And there were four brazen wheels to one base; and there were brazen bases, and their four sides answering to them, side pieces under the bases. [No book]
[31]And there were axles in the wheels under the base. [No book]
[32]And the height of one wheel was a cubit and a half. [No book]
[33]And the work of the wheels was as the work of chariot wheels: their axles, and their felloes, and the rest of their work, were all molten. [No book]
[34]The four side pieces were at the four corners of each base; its shoulders were formed of the base. [No book]
[35]And on the top of the base half a cubit was the size of it, there was a circle on the top of the base, and there was the top of its spaces and its borders: and it was open at the top of its spaces. [No book]
[36]And its borders were cherubs, and lions, and palm-trees, upright, each was joined in front and within and round about. [No book]
[37]According to the same form he made all the ten bases, even one order and one measure to all. [No book]
[38]And he made ten brazen lavers, each laver containing forty baths, and measuring four cubits, each laver placed on a several base throughout the ten bases. [No book]
[39]And he put five bases on the right side of the house, and five on the left side of the house: and the sea was placed on the right side of the house eastward in the direction of the south. [No book]
[40]And Chiram made the caldrons, and the pans, and the bowls; and Chiram finished making all the works that he wrought for king Solomon in the house of the Lord: [No book]
[41]two pillars and the wreathen works of the pillars on the heads of the two pillars; and the two net-works to cover both the wreathen works of the flutings that were upon the pillars. [No book]
[42]The four hundred pomegranates for both the net-works, two rows of pomegranates for one net-work, to cover both the wreathen works of the bases belonging to both pillars. [No book]
[43]And the ten bases, and the ten lavers upon the bases. [No book]
[44]And one sea, and the twelve oxen under the sea. [No book]
[45]And the caldrons, and pans, and bowls, and all the furniture, which Chiram made for king Solomon for the house of the Lord: and there were eight and forty pillars of the house of the king and of the house of the Lord: all the works of the king which Chiram made were entirely of brass. [No book]
[46]In the country round about Jordan did he cast them, in the clay land between Socchoth and Sira. [No book]
[47]There was no reckoning of the brass of which he made all these works, from the very great abundance, there was no end of the weight of the brass. [No book]
[48]And king Solomon took the furniture which Chiram made for the house of the Lord, the golden altar, and the golden table of shewbread. [No book]
[49]And he put the five candlesticks on the left, and five on the right in front of the oracle, being of pure gold, and the lamp-stands, and the lamps, and the snuffers of gold. [No book]
[50]And there were made the porches, and the nails, and the bowls, and the spoons, and the golden censers, of pure gold: and the panels of the doors of the innermost part of the house, even the holy of holies, and the golden doors of the temple. [No book]
[51]So the work of the house of the Lord which Solomon wrought was finished; and Solomon brought in the holy things of David his father, and all the holy things of Solomon; he put the silver, and the gold, and the furniture, into the treasures of the house of the Lord. [No book]
[52]And Solomon built a house for himself in thirteen years. [No book]
[53]And he built the house with the wood of Libanus; its length was a hundred cubits, and its breadth was fifty cubits, and its height was of thirty cubits, and it was made with three rows of cedar pillars, and the pillars had side-pieces of cedar. [No book]
[54]And he formed the house with chambers above on the sides of the pillars, and the number of the pillars was each row forty and five, [No book]
[55]and there were three chambers, and space against space in three rows. [No book]
[56]And all the doors and spaces formed like chambers were square, and from door to door was a correspondence in three rows. [No book]
[57]And he made the porch of the pillars, they were fifty cubits long and fifty broad, the porch joining them in front; and the other pillars and the thick beam were in front of the house by the porches. [No book]
[58]And there was the Porch of seats where he would judge, the porch of judgment. [No book]
[59]And their house where he would dwell, had one court communicating with these according to this work; and he built the house for the daughter of Pharao whom Solomon had taken, according to this porch. [No book]
[60]All these were of costly stones, sculptured at intervals within even from the foundation even to the top, and outward to the great court, [No book]
[61]founded with large costly stones, stones of ten cubits and eight cubits long. [No book]
[62]And above with costly stones, according to the measure of hewn stones, and with cedars. [No book]
