^{15 Ref} He it was who made the two brass pillars; the first pillar was eighteen cubits high, and a line of twelve cubits went round it; and the second was the same.

^{16 Ref} And he made the two crowns to be put on the tops of the pillars, of brass made soft in the fire; the crowns were five cubits high.

^{17 Ref} There were nets of open-work for the crowns on the tops of the pillars, a net of open-work for one and a net of open-work for the other.

^{18 Ref} And he made ornaments of apples; and two lines of apples all round over the network, covering the crowns of the pillars, the two crowns in the same way.

^{19 Ref} The crowns on the tops of the pillars were ornamented with a design of flowers, and were four cubits across.

^{20 Ref} And there were crowns on the two pillars near the round part by the network, and there were two hundred apples in lines round every crown.

^{21 Ref} He put up the pillars at the doorway of the Temple, naming the one on the right Jachin, and that on the left Boaz.

²² The tops of the pillars had a design of flowers; and the work of making the pillars was complete.

^{23 Ref} And he made a great metal water-vessel ten cubits across from edge to edge, five cubits high and thirty cubits round.

^{24 Ref} And under the edge of it, circling it all round for ten cubits, were two lines of flower buds, made together with it from liquid metal.

^{25 Ref} It was supported on twelve oxen, with their back parts turned to the middle of it, three of them facing to the north, three to the west, three to the south, and three to the east; the vessel was resting on top of them.

^{26 Ref} It was as thick as a man's open hand, and was curved like the edge of a cup, like the flower of a lily: it would take two thousand baths.

^{27 Ref} And he made ten wheeled bases of brass; every one four cubits long, four cubits wide, and three cubits high.

²⁸ And the bases were made in this way; their sides were square, fixed in a framework;

^{29 Ref} And on the square sides between the frames were lions, oxen, and winged ones; and the same on the frame; and over and under the lions and the oxen and the winged ones were steps.

^{30 Ref} Every base had four wheels of brass, turning on brass rods, and their four angles had angle-plates under them; the angle-plates under the base were of metal, and there were ornaments at the side of every one.

³¹ The mouth of it inside the angle-plate was one cubit across; it was round like a pillar, a cubit and a half across; it had designs cut on it; the sides were square, not round.

³² The four wheels were under the frames, and the rods on which the wheels were fixed were in the base; the wheels were a cubit and a half high.

^{33 Ref} The wheels were made like carriage-wheels, the rods on which they were fixed, the parts forming their edges, their rods and the middle points of them, were all formed out of liquid metal.

³⁴ And there were four angle-plates at the four angles of every base, forming part of the structure of the base.

³⁵ And at the top of the base there was a round vessel, half a cubit high;

^{36 Ref} In the spaces of the flat sides and on the frames of them, he made designs of winged ones, lions, and palm-trees, with ornamented edges all round.

³⁷ All the ten bases were made in this way, after the same design, of the same size and form.
