2 Chronicles 4:4-8 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

4. It was standing upon twelve oxen, three facing north, and three facing west, and three facing south, and three facing east. The sea was set upon them from above, and all their hindquarters faced inward.

5. And its thickness was a handbreadth, and its brim was like the working of the lip of a cup, the blossom of a lily. And it held three thousand baths.

6. And he made ten basins. And he set five on the south and five on the north in which to wash; they washed off the work of the burnt offering in them, but the sea was for the priests to wash therein.

7. And he made ten golden lampstands according to their custom, and he set them in the temple, five on the south and five on the north.

8. And he made ten tables and placed them in the temple, five on the south and five on the north. And he made a hundred drinking bowls of gold.
