all around on each of the capitals.
21 And he set up the pillars in the porch of the Hekal: and
he set up the right pillar, and called the name of it
Yahchin: and he set up the left pillar, and he called the
name of it Boaz. 871
22 And upon the top of the pillars was lily work: so the
work of the pillars was finished.
23 And he made a cast basin, ten cubits from the one brim
to the other: it was circular all around, and the height was
five cubits: and a line of thirty cubits measured around it.
24 And under the brim of it all around there were
ornaments compassing it, ten in a cubit, all around the
basin: the ornaments were cast in two rows, 872 when it
was cast.
25 It stood upon twelve oxen, 873 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 basin was set above upon them, and all their
back parts were inward. 874
26 And it was a handbreadth thick, and its brim was made
like the brim of a cup, with flowers of lilies: it contained
two thousand gallons of mayim. 875
27 And he made ten stands of brass; four cubits was the
length of one base, and four cubits the width, and three
cubits the height of it.
28 And the work of the stands was like this: they had side
panels, and the side panels were between the frames:
29 And on the side panels that were between the frames
were lions, oxen, and cheruvim: and upon the frames
there was a pedestal above: and beneath the lions and
oxen were certain additions made of thin work.
30 And every base had four bronze wheels, and plates of
brass: and the four feet had support; under the laver were
cast supports, at the side of every addition.
31 And the opening of it within the capital above was a
cubit: but the opening was round after the work of the
base, a cubit and a half: and also on the opening of it were
engravings with their panels, foursquare, not round.
32 And under the side panels were four wheels; and the
axle pins of the wheels were joined to the base: and the
height of a wheel was a cubit and a half a cubit.
33 And the work of the wheels was like the work of a
mirkavah wheel: their axle pins, and their rims, and their
hubs, and their spokes, were all cast.
34 And there were four supports to the four corners of
one base: and the supports were of the very base itself.
35 And at the top of the base was there a round compass
of half a cubit high: and on the top of the base the ledges
and the side panels were the same.
36 For on the plates of the ledges, and on the side panels,
he engraved cheruvim, lions, and palm eytzim, according
to the proportion of every one, and additions all around.
37 After this manner he made the ten stands: all of them
had one casting, one measure, and one size.
38 Then he made ten basins of brass: one laver contained
forty gallons: and every laver was four cubits: and upon
every one of the ten stands one laver.
39 And he put five stands on the right side of the bayit,
and five on the left side of the bayit: and he set the basin
on the right side of the bayit eastward facing south.
40 And Chiram made the basins, and the shovels, and the
bowls. So Chiram made an end of doing all the work that
he made for melech Shlomo for the Bayit of vuvh:
MELECHIM ALEPH - FIRST KINGS
- 234 -
41 The two pillars, and the two bowls of the capitals that
were on the top of the two pillars; and the two networks,
to cover the two bowls of the capitals which were upon
the top of the pillars;
42 And four hundred pomegranates for the two networks,
two rows of pomegranates for each network, to cover the
two bowls of the capitals that were on top of the pillars;
43 And the ten stands, and ten basins on the stands;
44 And one basin, and twelve oxen under the basin;
45 And the pots, and the shovels, and the bowls: and all
these vessels, which Chiram made for melech Shlomo for
the Bayit of vuvh, were of polished brass.
46 In the plain of the Yarden did the melech cast them, in
the clay ground between Sukkot and Tzarthan.
47 And Shlomo left all the vessels unweighed, because
they were too many: neither was the weight of the brass
sought for.
48 And Shlomo made all the vessels that pertained to the
Bayit of vuvh: the altar of gold, and the shulchan of gold,
on which the Lechem ha Panayim was,
49 And the menorot of pure gold, five on the right side,
and five on the left, before the Speaking Place, 876 with
the flowers, and the lamps, and the tongs of gold,
50 And the bowls, and the saucers, and the basins, and the
spoons, and the censers of pure gold; and the hinges of
gold, both for the doors of the inner Bayit, the Most-
Kadosh-Place, and for the doors of the Bayit of the Hekal.
51 So was finished all the work that melech Shlomo made
for the Bayit of vuvh. And Shlomo brought in the things
which Dawid his abba had dedicated; even the silver, and
the gold, and the vessels, did he put in the treasury of the
Bayit of vuvh.
Then Shlomo assembled the zechanim of Yisrael, and
all the heads of the tribes, the chief of the ahvot of the
children of Yisrael, to melech Shlomo in Yahrushalayim,
that they might bring up the Ark of the Testimony of vuvh
out of the city of Dawid, which is Tzion.
2 And all the men of Yisrael assembled themselves to
melech Shlomo at the feast in the month Eythanim, which
is the seventh month.
3 And all the zechanim of Yisrael came, and the Kohanim
took up the Ark.
4 And they brought up the Ark of vuvh, and the tent of
meeting, and all the kadosh vessels that were in the tent,
even those did the Kohanim and the Lewiym bring up.
5 And melech Shlomo, and all the congregation of
Yisrael, that were assembled to him, who were with him
before the Ark, sacrificed sheep and oxen, that could not
be counted, or numbered for multitude.
6 And the Kohanim brought in the Ark of the Testimony
of vuvh to its place, into the Speaking Place of the Bayit,
to the Most-Kadosh-Place, even under the wings of the
cheruvim.
7 For the cheruvim spread out their two wings over the
place of the Ark, and the cheruvim covered the Ark and
the poles of it above. 877
8
8 And the poles extended so that the ends of the poles
were seen sticking out into the Kadosh-Place in front of
the Speaking Place, but they were not seen from outside:
and they are there to this day.
9 There was nothing in the Ark except the two tablets of
stone, which Moshe put there at Horev, when vuvh made
