2 Chronicles 4:11–5:1

¹¹And Huram^d made the pots, the shovels, and the drinking bowls. So Hiram^e finished making the work that he made on the house of God for King Solomon: ¹²the two columns, the bowls, and the two capitals on top of the columns, and the two latticeworks to cover the two bowls of the capitals that were on top of the columns, ¹³and the four hundred pomegranates for the two latticeworks, two rows of pomegranates for the latticework, to cover the two bowls of the capitals that were before the columns. ¹⁴And he made the water carts, and he made the basins on the water carts, ¹⁵and the one sea and the twelve oxen underneath it.

¹⁶And Huram-abi made for King Solomon the pots, the shovels, the three-pronged meat forks, and all the utensils of polished bronze for the house of Yahweh. ¹⁷The king cast them in the plain of the Jordan, in the clay soil between Succoth and Zeredah. ¹⁸Solomon made all these utensils in great abundance, for the weight of the bronze could not be determined. ¹⁹So Solomon made all the objects that were in the house of God: the altar of gold; the tables upon which was the bread of the presence; ²⁰the lampstands, and the lamps for burning according to the custom before the inner sanctuary, of solid gold; ²¹and the blossoms, the lamps, and the tongs that were of solid gold; ²²and the snuffers, the drinking bowls, the dishes, and the firepans, of solid gold; and the entrance to the house, the inner doors to the most holy place, and the doors to the house of the temple were of gold.

The Ark Installed in the Temple

5When all the work that Solomon did for the house of Yahweh was finished, Solomon brought the holy objects of David his father: the silver, the gold, and all the objects he had put into the storehouses of the house of God.
