21 Century King James (21KJV)

Switch Version:

¹ Moreover he made an altar of brass: twenty cubits the length thereof, and twenty cubits the breadth thereof, and ten cubits he 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 f thirty cubits did compass it round about.

³ And under it was the similitude of oxen, which compassed it round about, ten in a cubit, compassing the sea round about. Two ows 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 outh, 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 a handbreadth, and the brim of it like the work of the brim of a cup, with flowers of lilies; and t 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 or 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 he 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 a hundred asins of gold.

⁹ Furthermore he made the court of the priests, and the great court, and doors for the court, and overlaid their doors with rass.

¹⁰ And he set the sea on the right side of the east end toward the south.

¹¹ And Hiram made the pots and the shovels and the basins. And Hiram finished the work that he was to do for King Solomon for he house of God,

¹² to wit: the two pillars, and the globes and the capitals which were on the top of the two pillars, and the two wreaths to over the two globes of the capitals 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 globes of the apitals 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 Hiramabi make for King Solomon for the ouse of the LORD of bright brass.

¹⁷ In the plain of Jordan did the king cast them, in the clay ground between Succoth and Zeredah.

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 showbread as set;

²⁰ moreover the candlesticks with their lamps, that they should burn according to the manner before the oracle, of pure gold;

²¹ and the flowers and the lamps and the tongs made he of gold, and that of perfect gold;

²² and the snuffers, and the basins, and the spoons, and the censers, of pure gold; and the entry of the house, the inner oors thereof for the Most Holy Place and the doors of the house of the temple were of gold.
