16 the pots, shovels, meat forks and all related articles.
All the objects that Huram-Abi(A) made for King Solomon for the temple of the Lord were of polished bronze. 17 The king had them cast in clay molds in the plain of the Jordan between Sukkoth(B) and Zarethan.[a] 18 All these things that Solomon made amounted to so much that the weight of the bronze(C) could not be calculated.
