2 Chronicles 4:8-19 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

8. Solomon made 10 tables and put them in the Temple. He put 5 on the south side and 5 on the north. And he used gold to make 100 other bowls.

9. Solomon also made the priests’ courtyard and the large courtyard. He made the doors that opened to the courtyard and covered them with bronze.

10. Then he put the large bowl on the south side. He put it in the Temple’s southeast corner.

11. He made the pots, shovels and bowls. So Huram finished his work for King Solomon on the Temple of God. He had made these things:

12. two pillars;two large bowls for the capitals on top of the pillars;two nets to cover the two large bowls for the capitals on top of the pillars;

13. 400 pomegranates for the two nets (there were two rows of pomegranates for each net covering the bowls for the capitals on top of the pillars);

14. the stands with a bowl on each stand;

15. the large bowl with 12 bulls under it;

16. the pots, shovels, forks and all the things to go with them.All the things Huram-Abi made King Solomon for the Temple of the Lord were made of polished bronze.

17. King Solomon first had these things poured into clay molds. The molds were made in the plain of the Jordan between Succoth and Zarethan.

18. Solomon had so many things made no one even tried to weigh all the bronze used.

19. Solomon also made all the things for God’s Temple. He made the gold altar. He made tables to hold the bread that shows we are in God’s presence.
