15 The captain of the bodyguards also took away the firepans and the basins, what was fine gold and what was fine silver. 16 The two pillars, the one Sea, and the stands which Solomon had made for the house of the Lord—[a](A)the bronze of all these articles was too heavy to weigh. 17 (B)The height of the one pillar was [b]eighteen cubits, and a bronze capital was on it; the height of the capital was [c]three cubits, with latticework and pomegranates on the capital all around, all of bronze. And the second pillar was like these, same features with latticework.

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.
