1 Kings 7:27–37

²⁷He made the ten stands of bronze; each stand was four cubits long, four cubits wide, and three cubits in height. ²⁸Now this was the construction of the stands: there were frames for them and frames between the crossbars, ²⁹and on the frames which were between the crossbars were lions, oxen, and cherubim. On the crossbars both above and beneath the lions and oxen were works of cascading wreaths. ³⁰There were four bronze wheels for each of the stands, with bronze axles; the four support pedestals for these were under the basin, and the supports were decorated on each side with wreaths. ³¹Its opening from the inside of the capital and above was a cubit; its pedestal was a round work of a cubit and a half; moreover, on its opening were the carvings with four-sided frames, not circular. ³²Four of the wheels were underneath the frames, and the axles of the wheels were on the stands. The height of each wheel was a cubit and a half. ³³The construction of the wheel was like the construction of the wheel of the chariot; their axles, their rims, their spokes, and their naves were all cast. ³⁴The four supports were the four corners of each stand, with the stand supporting it. ³⁵On top of the stand was half a cubit deep, circular all around, and on the top of the stand were its supports and its frames. ³⁶He engraved on the plates, on its supports, and on its frame cherubim, lions and images of a palm tree, according to the space for each, with wreaths all around. ³⁷He made the ten stands like this in one cast, with the same measurement and shape for each of them.
