建造殿中各器皿(A)

他又做了一座銅壇,長九公尺,寬九公尺,高四公尺半。 又鑄造了一個銅海,直徑有四公尺半,是圓形的,高兩公尺兩公寸,圓周有十三公尺兩公寸。 銅海底下四周有形狀像牛的裝飾物;每四十五公分十個,共分二行,是和銅海一體鑄成的。 有十二頭銅牛馱著銅海:三頭向北,三頭向西,三頭向南,三頭向東。銅海在牛背上面,牛尾部向內。 銅海厚七公分半,邊緣像杯邊的做法,形狀似百合花,容量有六萬公升。 他又做了十個洗濯盆:五個放在銅海的右邊,五個放在左邊,用來清洗東西;獻燔祭所用的東西要在盆內清洗,但銅海是給祭司洗濯的。

又照著規定的樣式做了十個金燈臺,放在殿內;五個在右邊,五個在左邊。 又做了十張桌子,安放在殿內;五張在右邊,五張在左邊。又做了一百個金碗。 又建造祭司院、大院和大院的門;門都包上銅。 10 又把銅海放在殿的右邊,就是東南方。

11 戶蘭又做了鍋、鏟和碗。這樣,戶蘭為所羅門王完成了神殿的工程, 12 就是兩根柱子和在柱子上面兩個碗形柱頂,以及兩個網子,遮蓋柱子上面兩個碗形的柱頂, 13 又有四百個石榴,安放在兩個網子上,每個網子有兩行石榴,遮蓋柱子上頭兩個碗形的柱頂。 14 又做了十個盆座和盆座上的十個洗濯盆, 15 還有一個銅海和銅海底下的十二頭銅牛。 16 鍋、鏟、肉叉和一切相關的器皿,都是戶蘭用磨光的銅給所羅門王,為耶和華的殿所做的。 17 是王在約旦平原,在疏割和撒利但之間,用膠泥模鑄成的。 18 所羅門所做的這一切器皿,數量很多;銅的重量無法估計。

19 所羅門又做了神殿裡的一切器具,就是金壇和放陳設餅的桌子, 20 用純金做的燈臺和燈盞,按定例在內殿門前燃點, 21 還有燈花、燈盞和燭剪,都是精金做的。 22 又有剪刀、盤子、調羹和火鼎,都是用精金做的。殿門,就是進入至聖所裡面的門和正殿的門,都是金的。

The Temple’s Furnishings(A)

He made a bronze altar(B) twenty cubits long, twenty cubits wide and ten cubits high.[a] He made the Sea(C) of cast metal, circular in shape, measuring ten cubits from rim to rim and five cubits[b] high. It took a line of thirty cubits[c] to measure around it. Below the rim, figures of bulls encircled it—ten to a cubit.[d] The bulls were cast in two rows in one piece with the Sea.

The Sea stood on twelve bulls, three facing north, three facing west, three facing south and three facing east.(D) The Sea rested on top of them, and their hindquarters were toward the center. It was a handbreadth[e] in thickness, and its rim was like the rim of a cup, like a lily blossom. It held three thousand baths.[f]

He then made ten basins(E) for washing and placed five on the south side and five on the north. In them the things to be used for the burnt offerings(F) were rinsed, but the Sea was to be used by the priests for washing.

He made ten gold lampstands(G) according to the specifications(H) for them and placed them in the temple, five on the south side and five on the north.

He made ten tables(I) and placed them in the temple, five on the south side and five on the north. He also made a hundred gold sprinkling bowls.(J)

He made the courtyard(K) of the priests, and the large court and the doors for the court, and overlaid the doors with bronze. 10 He placed the Sea on the south side, at the southeast corner.

11 And Huram also made the pots and shovels and sprinkling bowls.

So Huram finished(L) the work he had undertaken for King Solomon in the temple of God:

12 the two pillars;

the two bowl-shaped capitals on top of the pillars;

the two sets of network decorating the two bowl-shaped capitals on top of the pillars;

13 the four hundred pomegranates for the two sets of network (two rows of pomegranates for each network, decorating the bowl-shaped capitals on top of the pillars);

14 the stands(M) with their basins;

15 the Sea and the twelve bulls under it;

16 the pots, shovels, meat forks and all related articles.

All the objects that Huram-Abi(N) made for King Solomon for the temple of the Lord were of polished bronze. 17 The king had them cast in clay molds in the plain of the Jordan between Sukkoth(O) and Zarethan.[g] 18 All these things that Solomon made amounted to so much that the weight of the bronze(P) could not be calculated.

19 Solomon also made all the furnishings that were in God’s temple:

the golden altar;

the tables(Q) on which was the bread of the Presence;

20 the lampstands(R) of pure gold with their lamps, to burn in front of the inner sanctuary as prescribed;

21 the gold floral work and lamps and tongs (they were solid gold);

22 the pure gold wick trimmers, sprinkling bowls, dishes(S) and censers;(T) and the gold doors of the temple: the inner doors to the Most Holy Place and the doors of the main hall.
