2 Chronicles 4
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
4 Also Solomon made an altar of bronze, its top twenty by twenty cubits and its height ten cubits.
2 Also he made a round Sea of molten metal, ten cubits from brim to brim and five cubits high, and a line of thirty cubits measured around it.
3 Under it were figures of oxen encircling it, ten to a cubit. The oxen were in two rows, cast in one piece with it.
4 It stood upon twelve oxen, three looking north, three west, three south, three east; and the Sea rested upon them, and all their hind parts were inward.
5 Its thickness was a handbreadth; its brim was like the brim of a cup, like the flower of a lily; it held 3,000 baths (measures).
6 He made also ten lavers in which to wash and put five on the right (south) side and five on the left (north). Such things as they offered for the burnt offering they washed in them, but the Sea was for the priests to wash in.
7 And he made ten golden lampstands as directed and set them in the temple, five on the right side and five on the left.
8 He made also ten tables and placed them in the temple, five each on the right and left sides, and 100 basins of gold.
9 Moreover, he made the priests’ court, and the great court and doors for the court, and overlaid their doors with bronze.
10 And he set the Sea at the southeast corner of the house.
11 And Huram made the pots, shovels, and basins. So Huram finished the work of God’s house that he did for King Solomon:
12 The two pillars; the bowls; the capitals on top of the two pillars; and the two networks to cover the two bowls of the capitals on top of the pillars;
13 And 400 pomegranates for the two networks, two rows of pomegranates for each network, to cover the two bowls of the capitals upon the pillars.
14 He made also bases or stands and lavers upon the bases;
15 One Sea and the twelve oxen under it;
16 The pots, shovels, and fleshhooks, and all their equipment Huram his trusted counselor made of burnished bronze for King Solomon for the house of the Lord.
17 In the plain of the Jordan the king cast them, in the clay ground between Succoth and Zeredah.
18 Solomon made all these things in such great numbers that the weight of the bronze was not computed.
19 And Solomon made all the vessels for the house of God: the golden altar also; and the tables for the showbread (the bread of the Presence);
20 And the lampstands with their lamps of pure gold, to burn before the inner sanctuary (the Holy of Holies) as directed;
21 The flowers, lamps, and tongs, of purest gold;
22 The snuffers, basins, dishes for incense, and firepans, of pure gold; and for the temple entry, the inner doors for the Most Holy Place and the doors of the Holy Place were of gold.

Dios Habla Hoy
Mobiliario del templo(A)
4 Salomón hizo también un altar de bronce de nueve metros de largo por nueve de ancho y cuatro y medio de alto. 2 Hizo también una enorme pila de bronce, para el agua. Era redonda, y medía cuatro metros y medio de un borde al otro. Su altura era de dos metros y veinticinco centímetros, y su circunferencia, de trece metros y medio. 3 Debajo y alrededor de la pila, en dos hileras, había figuras como de toros, en número de diez por cada cuarenta y cinco centímetros, formando una sola pieza con la pila. 4 Ésta descansaba sobre doce toros de bronce, de los cuales tres miraban al norte, tres al sur, tres al este y tres al oeste. Sus patas traseras estaban hacia dentro, y la pila descansaba sobre ellos. 5 Las paredes de la pila tenían ocho centímetros de grueso; su borde imitaba el cáliz de un lirio, y cabían en ella sesenta y seis mil litros de agua.
6 Hizo también diez pilas de bronce para lavar, y puso cinco a la derecha y cinco a la izquierda. En ellas lavaban todo lo que se usaba en el holocausto; pero la pila grande era para que se lavaran en ella los sacerdotes.
7 Hizo también diez candelabros de oro en la forma prescrita, y los colocó en el templo, cinco a la derecha y cinco a la izquierda. 8 Además hizo diez mesas, y las puso en el templo, cinco a la derecha y cinco a la izquierda. Hizo también cien tazones de oro.
9 Construyó además el atrio de los sacerdotes y el atrio principal, con sus puertas, las cuales recubrió de bronce. 10 Y puso la pila grande al lado derecho del templo, hacia el suroeste.
11 Hiram hizo además las ollas, las palas y los tazones, y así terminó el trabajo que hizo para Salomón en el templo de Dios. 12 Este trabajo consistió en las dos columnas, los capiteles redondos que estaban en la parte superior de las mismas, las dos rejillas para cubrir los capiteles, 13 las cuatrocientas granadas para las dos rejillas, en dos hileras para cada una de las rejillas, con que se cubrían los dos capiteles redondos que había en lo alto de las columnas; 14 las diez bases, las diez pilas que iban sobre ellas, 15 la pila grande para el agua, con los doce toros que tenía debajo, 16 además de las ollas, las palas y los tenedores.
Todos los utensilios que Hiram, el maestro, le hizo al rey Salomón para el templo del Señor, eran de bronce pulido. 17 Los fundió en moldes de arena, en la región del Jordán, entre Sucot y Saretán. 18 Salomón hizo tantos utensilios de bronce, que no se preocupó por hacer que los pesaran.
19 También mandó hacer Salomón todos los demás utensilios que había en el templo de Dios: el altar de oro, las mesas sobre las que se ponían los panes que se consagran al Señor, 20 los candelabros de oro puro con sus lámparas que había frente al Lugar santísimo, para encenderlos como estaba ordenado; 21 las figuras de flores, las lámparas y las tenazas, igualmente de oro puro; 22 las despabiladeras, los tazones, los cucharones y los incensarios, que eran todos de oro puro. También eran de oro, a la entrada del templo, las hojas de las puertas interiores, las del Lugar santísimo y las de las puertas del templo mismo.
2 Chronicles 4
King James Version
4 Moreover he made an altar of brass, twenty cubits the length thereof, and twenty cubits the breadth thereof, and ten cubits the height thereof.
2 Also he made a molten sea of ten cubits from brim to brim, round in compass, and five cubits the height thereof; and a line of thirty cubits did compass it round about.
3 And under it was the similitude of oxen, which did compass it round about: ten in a cubit, compassing the sea round about. Two rows of oxen were cast, when it was cast.
4 It stood upon twelve oxen, three looking toward the north, and three looking toward the west, and three looking toward the south, and three looking toward the east: and the sea was set above upon them, and all their hinder parts were inward.
5 And the thickness of it was an handbreadth, and the brim of it like the work of the brim of a cup, with flowers of lilies; and it received and held three thousand baths.
6 He made also ten lavers, and put five on the right hand, and five on the left, to wash in them: such things as they offered for the burnt offering they washed in them; but the sea was for the priests to wash in.
7 And he made ten candlesticks of gold according to their form, and set them in the temple, five on the right hand, and five on the left.
8 He made also ten tables, and placed them in the temple, five on the right side, and five on the left. And he made an hundred basons of gold.
9 Furthermore he made the court of the priests, and the great court, and doors for the court, and overlaid the doors of them with brass.
10 And he set the sea on the right side of the east end, over against the south.
11 And Huram made the pots, and the shovels, and the basons. And Huram finished the work that he was to make for king Solomon for the house of God;
12 To wit, the two pillars, and the pommels, and the chapiters which were on the top of the two pillars, and the two wreaths to cover the two pommels of the chapiters which were on the top of the pillars;
13 And four hundred pomegranates on the two wreaths; two rows of pomegranates on each wreath, to cover the two pommels of the chapiters which were upon the pillars.
14 He made also bases, and lavers made he upon the bases;
15 One sea, and twelve oxen under it.
16 The pots also, and the shovels, and the fleshhooks, and all their instruments, did Huram his father make to king Solomon for the house of the Lord of bright brass.
17 In the plain of Jordan did the king cast them, in the clay ground between Succoth and Zeredathah.
18 Thus Solomon made all these vessels in great abundance: for the weight of the brass could not be found out.
19 And Solomon made all the vessels that were for the house of God, the golden altar also, and the tables whereon the shewbread was set;
20 Moreover the candlesticks with their lamps, that they should burn after the manner before the oracle, of pure gold;
21 And the flowers, and the lamps, and the tongs, made he of gold, and that perfect gold;
22 And the snuffers, and the basons, and the spoons, and the censers, of pure gold: and the entry of the house, the inner doors thereof for the most holy place, and the doors of the house of the temple, were of gold.
