1 Kings 7:27-36 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

27. Then Huram made ten bronze carts. Each cart was 4 cubits long, 4 cubits wide, and 3 cubits high.

28. The carts were made with square panels set in frames.

29. On the panels and frames were bronze bulls, lions, and Cherub angels. There were designs of flowers hammered into the bronze above and below the bulls and lions.

30. Each cart had four bronze wheels with bronze axles. At the corners there were bronze supports for a large bowl. The supports had designs of flowers hammered into the bronze.

31. There was a frame around the top with an opening for the bowl. The frame was 1 cubit tall, and the opening was 1 1/2 cubits in diameter. There were designs carved into the bronze on the frame. The frame was square, not round.

32. There were four wheels under the frame. The wheels were 1 1/2 cubits in diameter. The axles between the wheels were made as one piece with the cart.

33. The wheels were like the wheels on a chariot. Everything on the wheels—the axles, the rims, the spokes, and the hubs were made from bronze.

34. There were supports at each of the four corners of the carts. They were made as one piece with the cart.

35. There was a strip of bronze around the top of each cart. It was made as one piece with the cart.

36. The sides of the cart and the frames had pictures of Cherub angels, lions, and palm trees carved into the bronze. These pictures were carved all over the carts—wherever there was room. And there were flowers carved on the frame around the cart.
