2 Chronicles 4:11-22 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

11. When Huram had made the pots, shovels, and bowls, he finished all his work for King Solomon in the house of God:

12. two columns; two nodes for the capitals on top of the columns; and two pieces of netting covering the two nodes for the capitals on top of the columns;

13. four hundred pomegranates in double rows on both pieces of netting that covered the two nodes of the capitals on top of the columns.

14. He made the stands, and the basins on the stands;

15. one sea, and the twelve oxen under it;

16. pots, shovels, forks, and all the articles Huram-abi made for King Solomon for the house of the Lord; they were of burnished bronze.

17. The king had them cast in the neighborhood of the Jordan, between Succoth and Zeredah, in thick clay molds.

18. Solomon made all these vessels, so many in number that the weight of the bronze could not be determined.

19. Solomon made all the articles that were for the house of God: the golden altar, the tables on which the showbread lay,

20. the menorahs and their lamps of pure gold which were to burn as prescribed before the inner sanctuary,

21. flowers, lamps, and gold tongs (this was of purest gold),

22. snuffers, bowls, cups, and firepans of pure gold. As for the entrance to the house, its inner doors to the holy of holies, as well as the doors to the nave of the temple, were of gold.
