1 Kings 7:25-29

English Standard Version

²⁵ It stood on ^(A)twelve oxen, three facing north, three facing west, three facing south, and three facing east. The sea was set on them, and all their rear parts were inward. ²⁶ Its thickness was a handbreadth,^[a] and its brim was made like the brim of a cup, like the flower of a lily. It held two thousand baths.^[b]

²⁷ He also made the ^(B)ten stands of bronze. Each stand was four cubits long, four cubits wide, and three cubits high. ²⁸ This was the construction of the stands: they had panels, and the panels were set in the frames, ²⁹ and on the panels that were set in the frames were lions, oxen, and cherubim. On the frames, both above and below the lions and oxen, there were wreaths of beveled work.
