2 Kings 25:15-17
Modern English Version
15 The fire pans and sprinkling basins that were fine gold and fine silver the captain of the bodyguard took.
16 The two pillars, the one sea, and the stands, which Solomon had made for the house of the Lord—the bronze of all these implements was beyond weight. 17 The height of the one pillar was eighteen cubits,[a] and a bronze capital was on it. The height of the capital was three cubits.[b] Latticework and pomegranates, all of bronze, were on the capital all around. The second pillar with its latticework was like it.

15 The commander of the imperial guard took away the censers and sprinkling bowls—all that were made of pure gold or silver.(A)
16 The bronze from the two pillars, the Sea and the movable stands, which Solomon had made for the temple of the Lord, was more than could be weighed. 17 Each pillar(B) was eighteen cubits[a] high. The bronze capital on top of one pillar was three cubits[b] high and was decorated with a network and pomegranates of bronze all around. The other pillar, with its network, was similar.
