11Then Huram ijmade kthe 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 400 pomegranates for the two gratings (two rows of pomegranates for each grating covering both capitals’ bowls on top of the pillars l). 14He also made the water carts mnand the basins on the water carts. 15The one reservoir and the 12 oxen underneath it, 16the pots, the shovels, the forks, and all their utensils—Huram-abi opmade 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; q20the lampstands and their lamps of pure gold to burn in front of the inner sanctuary according to specifications; r21the flowers, lamps, and gold tongs—of purest gold; 22the wick trimmers, sprinkling basins, ladles, sand 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.
