¹⁵ He cast two pillars of bronze. Eighteen cubits was the height of the one, and a cord of twelve cubits would encircle it; the second pillar was the same.^[a](A)

²¹ As for the pillars, the height of the one pillar was eighteen cubits; its circumference was twelve cubits; it was hollow, and its thickness was four fingers.^(A)

¹⁵ In front of the house he made two pillars thirty-five cubits high, each with a capital of five cubits on its top.^{(A) 16} He made encircling^[a] chains and put them on the tops of the pillars, and he made one hundred pomegranates and put them on the chains. ¹⁷ He set up the pillars in front of the temple, one on the right, the other on the left; the one on the right he called Jachin, and the one on the left, Boaz.^(B)

²¹ He set up the pillars at the vestibule of the temple; he set up the pillar on the south and called it Jachin, and he set up the pillar on the north and called it Boaz.^(A)

¹³ He burned the house of the Lord, the king’s house, and all the houses of Jerusalem; every great house he burned down.^(A)

¹² the two pillars, the bowls, and the two capitals on the top of the pillars; and the two latticeworks to cover the two bowls of the capitals that were on the top of the pillars;^{(A) 13} the four hundred pomegranates for the two latticeworks, two rows of pomegranates for each latticework, to cover the two bowls of the capitals that were on the pillars.^{(B) 14} He made the stands, the basins on the stands,^{(C) 15} the one sea, and the twelve bulls underneath it. ¹⁶ The pots, the shovels, the forks, and all the equipment for these Huram-abi made of burnished bronze for King Solomon for the house of the Lord.^{(D) 17} In the plain of the Jordan the king cast them, in the clay ground between Succoth and Zeredah.^{(E) 18} Solomon made all these things in great quantities, so that the weight of the bronze was not determined.^(F)

¹⁹ So Solomon made all the things that were in the house of God: the golden altar, the tables for the bread of the Presence,^{(G) 20} the lampstands and their lamps of pure gold to burn before the inner sanctuary, as prescribed;^{(H) 21} the flowers, the lamps, and the tongs, of purest gold; ²² the snuffers, basins, ladles, and firepans, of pure gold. As for the entrance to the temple: the inner doors to the most holy place and the doors of the main hall of the temple were of gold.

¹⁶ As for the two pillars, the one sea, and the stands that Solomon had made for the house of the Lord, the bronze of all these vessels was beyond weighing.^{(A) 17} The height of the one pillar was eighteen cubits, and on it was a bronze capital; the height of the capital was three cubits; latticework and pomegranates, all of bronze, were on the capital all around. The second pillar had the same, with the latticework.^(B)

⁴¹ the two pillars, the two bowls of the capitals that were on the tops of the pillars, the two latticeworks to cover the two bowls of the capitals that were on the tops of the pillars;^(A)
