2 Chronicles 4:11–5:1

¹¹Then Huram^l made^m the pots, the shovels, and the bowls.

COMPLETION OF THE BRONZE FURNISHINGS

So Huram finished doing the work that he was doing for King Solomon in God’s temple: ¹²two pillars; the bowls and the capitals on top of the two pillars; the two gratings for covering both bowls of the capitals that were on top of the pillars; ¹³the four hundred pomegranates for the two gratings (two rows of pomegranates for each grating covering both capitals’ bowls on top of the pillarsⁿ). ¹⁴He also made the water carts^No and the basins on the water carts. ¹⁵The one basin and the twelve oxen underneath it, ¹⁶the pots, the shovels, the forks, and all their utensils—Huram-abi^Ap made them for King Solomon for the Lord’s temple. All these were made of polished bronze. ¹⁷The king had them cast in clay molds in the Jordan Valley between Succoth and Zeredah. ¹⁸Solomon made all these utensils in such great abundance that the weight of the bronze was not determined.

COMPLETION OF THE GOLD FURNISHINGS

¹⁹Solomon also made all the equipment in God’s temple: the gold altar; the tables on which to put the Bread of the Presence;^{q 20}the lampstands and their lamps of pure gold to burn in front of the inner sanctuary according to specifications;^{r 21}the flowers, lamps, and gold tongs—of purest gold; ²²the wick trimmers, sprinkling basins, ladles,^B and firepans—of purest gold; and the entryway to the temple, its inner doors to the most holy place, and the doors of the temple sanctuary—of gold.

5So all the work Solomon did for the Lord’s temple was completed. Then Solomon brought the consecrated things of his father David—the silver, the gold, and all the utensils—and put them in the treasuries of God’s temple.
