36. On the flat ends of the handles and on the panels, wherever there was a bare space, cherubim, lions, and palm trees were carved, as well as wreaths all around.
37. This was how he made the ten stands, all of the same casting, the same size, the same shape.
38. He made ten bronze basins, each four cubits in diameter with a capacity of forty baths, one basin atop each of the ten stands.
39. He placed the stands, five on the south side of the house and five on the north. The sea he placed off to the southeast from the south side of the house.
40. When Hiram had made the pots, shovels, and bowls, he finished all his work for King Solomon in the house of the Lord:
41. two columns; two nodes for the capitals on top of the columns; two pieces of netting covering the two nodes for the capitals on top of the columns;
42. four hundred pomegranates in double rows on both pieces of netting that covered the two nodes of the capitals on top of the columns;
43. ten stands; ten basins on the stands;
44. one sea; twelve oxen supporting the sea;
45. pots, shovels, and bowls. All these articles which Hiram made for King Solomon in the house of the Lord were of burnished bronze.
46. The king had them cast in the neighborhood of the Jordan, between Succoth and Zarethan, in thick clay molds.
47. Solomon did not weigh all the articles because they were so numerous; the weight of the bronze, therefore, was not determined.
48. Solomon made all the articles that were for the house of the Lord: the golden altar; the table on which the showbread lay;
49. the lampstands of pure gold, five to the right and five to the left before the inner sanctuary; their flowers, lamps, and tongs of gold;
50. basins, snuffers, bowls, cups, and firepans of pure gold; hinges of gold for the doors of the innermost part of the house, or holy of holies, and for the doors of the outer room, the nave.
51. When all the work undertaken by King Solomon in the house of the Lord was completed, he brought in the votive offerings of his father David, and put the silver, gold, and other articles in the treasuries of the house of the Lord.
