    23Hiram made a large cast basin, called 'The Sea', which was ten cubits from rim to rim, circular in shape, five cubits high, and thirty cubits in circumference.

    24Below the rim of the basin, there were decorative gourds encircling it, ten per cubit, entirely cast in one piece with the basin.

    25The basin rested on twelve bronze oxen, three facing north, three west, three south, and three east; the basin sat on their backs, and all their hind parts were turned inward.

    26The thickness of the basin was a handbreadth, and its rim was fashioned like the rim of a cup, resembling a lily blossom. It held two thousand baths.

    27He made ten bronze stands, each four cubits long, four cubits wide, and three cubits high.

    28This is how the stands were constructed: they had panels enclosed within frames.

    29On the panels between the frames were lions, oxen, and cherubim. Above and below the lions and oxen were wreaths of beveled work.

    30Each stand had four bronze wheels with axles and supports. Its wash basin rested on cast supports attached with wreaths on each side.

    31The opening of the stand, from inside the capital upwards, was one cubit. Its opening was round, shaped like a pedestal, measuring a cubit and a half. Around its opening were carvings, and its frames were square, not circular.

    32The four wheels were under the frames, and the axles of the wheels were attached to the stand. Each wheel was one and a half cubits high.
