NOVA VULGATA	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 Fecit quoque altare aeneum viginti cubitorum longitudinis et viginti cubitorum latitudinis et decem cubitorum	1 He made also an altar of brass twenty cubits long, and twenty cubits broad, and ten cubits high.
2 altitudinis. Mare etiam fusile decem cubitis a labio usque ad labium rotundum per circuitum; quinque cubitos habebat altitudinis, et funiculus triginta cubitorum ambiebat gyrum eius.
3 Similitudo quoque boum erat subter illud, in circuitu circumdabant illud — decem cubitis — duobus versibus alvum maris circuibant boves fusiles in una fusione cum mari.	3 Also a molten sea of ten cubits from brim to brim, round in compass: it was five cubits high, and a line of thirty cubits compassed it round about.
4 Et ipsum mare super duodecim boves impositum erat, quorum tres respiciebant aquilonem et alii tres occidentem, porro tres alii meridiem et tres, qui reliqui erant, orientem habentes mare superpositum; posteriora autem boum erant intrinsecus sub mari.	4 And under it there was the likeness of oxen, and certain engravings on the outside of ten cubits compassed the belly of the sea, as it were with two rows.
5 Porro vastitas eius habebat mensuram palmi, et labium illius erat quasi labium calicis vel repandi lilii; capiebatque tria milia batos.	5 And the oxen were cast: and the sea itself was set upon the twelve oxen, three of which looked toward the north, and other three toward the west: and other three toward the south, and the other three that remained toward the east, and the sea stood upon them: and the hinder parts of the oxen were inward under the sea.
6 Fecit quoque luteres decem et posuit quinque a dextris et quinque a sinistris, ut lavarent in eis omnia, quae in holocaustum oblaturi erant; porro in mari sacerdotes lavabantur.	6 Now the thickness of it was a handbreadth, and the brim of it was like the brim of a cup, or of a crisped lily: and it held three thousand measures.
7 Fecit autem et candelabra aurea decem secundum speciem, qua iussa erant fieri, et posuit ea in templo quinque a dextris et quinque a sinistris.	7 He made also ten lavers: and he see five on the right hand, and five on the left, to wash in them all such things as they mere to offer for holocausts: but the sea was for the priests to wash in.
8 Necnon et mensas decem, et posuit eas in templo quinque a dextris et quinque a sinistris; phialas quoque aureas centum.	8 And he made ten golden candlesticks, according to the form which they were commanded to be made by: and he set them in the temple, five on the right hand, and five on the left.
9 Fecit etiam atrium sacerdotum et atrium grande et ostia in atrio, quae texit aere.	9 Moreover also ten tables: and he set them in the temple, five on the right side, and five on the left. Also a hundred bowls of gold.
10 Porro mare posuit in latere dextro contra orientem ad meridiem.	10 He made also the court of the priests, and a great hall, and doors in the hall, which he covered with brass.
11 Fecit autem Hiram lebetes et vatilla et phialas et complevit omne opus regis Salomonis in domo Dei;	11 And he set the sea on the right side over against the east toward the south.
12 hoc est columnas duas et globos et capitella super caput columnarum duarum et serta duo, quae tegerent globos capitellorum;	12 And Hiram made caldrons, and fleshhooks, and bowls: and finished all the king's work in the house of God:
13 malogranata quoque quadringenta et serta duo, ita ut bini ordines malogranatorum singulis sertis iungerentur, quae protegerent globos capitellorum columnarum.	13 That is to say, the two pillars, and the pommels, and the chapiters, and the network, to cover the chapiters over the pommels.
14 Bases etiam fecit et luteres, quos superposuit basibus,	14 And four hundred pomegranates, and two wreaths of network, so that two rows of pomegranates were joined to each wreath, to cover the pommels, and the chapiters of the pillars.
15 mare unum, boves quoque duodecim sub mari;	15 He made also bases, and lavers, which he set upon the bases:
16 et lebetes et vatilla et fuscinulas: omnia vasa fecit regi Salomoni Hiram magister eius pro domo Domini ex aere mundissimo.	16 One sea, and twelve oxen under the sea;
17 In regione Iordanis fudit ea rex in argillosa terra inter Succoth et Saredatha.	17 And the caldrons, and fleshhooks, and bowls. All the vessels did Hiram his father make for Solomon in the house of the Lord of the finest brass.
18 Fecitque Salomon multitudinem vasorum innumerabilem, ita ut ignoraretur pondus aeris.	18 In the country near the Jordan did the king cast them, in a clay ground between Sochot and Saredatha.
19 Fecitque Salomon omnia vasa domus Dei et altare aureum et mensas et super eas panes propositionis;	19 And the multitude of vessels was innumerable, so that the weight of the brass was not known.
20 candelabra quoque cum lucernis suis, ut lucerent ante Dabir iuxta ritum, ex auro purissimo,	20 And Solomon made all the vessels for the house of God, and the golden altar, and the tables, upon which were the leaves of proposition,
21 et florem et lucernas et forcipes aureos: omnia de auro perfectissimo facta sunt;	21 The candlesticks also of most pure gold with their lamps to give light before the oracle, according to the manner.
22 cultros quoque et phialas et sartagines et turibula ex auro purissimo. Et ostia templi interiora in sancta sanctorum et ostia templi forinsecus aurea.	22 And certain flowers, and lamps, and golden tongs: all were made of the finest gold.
