Furnishings of the Temple

40 pHuram 3made the lavers and the shovels and the bowls. So Huram finished doing all the work that he was to do for King Solomon for the house of the Lord: 41 the two pillars, the two bowl-shaped capitals that were on top of the two pillars; the two qnetworks covering the two bowl-shaped capitals which were on top of the pillars; 42 rfour hundred pomegranates for the two networks (two rows of pomegranates for each network, to cover the two bowl-shaped capitals that were on top of the pillars); 43 the ten carts, and ten lavers on the carts; 44 one Sea, and twelve oxen under the Sea; 45 sthe pots, the shovels, and the bowls.

All these articles which 4Huram made for King Solomon for the house of the Lord were of burnished bronze. 46 tIn the plain of Jordan the king had them cast in clay molds, between uSuccoth and vZaretan. 47 And Solomon did not weigh all the articles, because there were so many; the weight of the bronze was not wdetermined.

48 Thus Solomon had all the furnishings made for the house of the Lord: xthe altar of gold, and ythe table of gold on which was zthe showbread; 49 the lampstands of pure gold, five on the right side and five on the left in front of the inner sanctuary, with the flowers and the lamps and the wick-trimmers of gold; 50 the basins, the trimmers, the bowls, the ladles, and the 5censers of pure gold; and the hinges of gold, both for the doors of the inner room (the Most Holy Place) and for the doors of the main hall of the temple.

51 So all the work that King Solomon had done for the house of the Lord was finished; and Solomon brought in the things awhich his father David had dedicated: the silver and the gold and the furnishings. He put them in the treasuries of the house of the Lord.

About The New King James Version

The New King James Version is a total update of the 1611 King James Version, also known as the "Authorized Version." Every attempt has been made to maintain the beauty of the original version while updating the English grammar to contemporary style and usage. The result is much better "readability." It is noteworthy that the NKJV is one of the few modern translations still based on the "Western" or "Byzantine" manuscript tradition. This makes the New King James Version an invaluable aid to comparative English Bible study.
