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.
