11 Huram made the ash containers, the scoops and the sprinkling bowls. Thus Huram completed al thework done for King Solomon for the Temple of God:
12 the two pillars; the mouldings of the capitals surmounting the two pil ars; the two sets of filigree tocover the two mouldings of the capitals surmounting the pil ars;
13 the four hundred pomegranates for the two sets of filigree -- two rows of pomegranates for each set offiligree;
14 the ten stands and the ten basins on the stands;
15 the one Sea and the twelve oxen beneath it;
16 the ash containers, scoops and forks. Al these utensils made by Huram-Abi for King Solomon for theTemple of Yahweh were of burnished bronze.

18 ܘܥܒܕ ܫܠܝܡܘܢ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܡܐ̈ܢܐ ܗܠܝܢ ܕܣܓܝܐܝܢ ܛܒ ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܡܢܝܢܐ ܠܡܬܩܠܐ ܕܢܚܫܐ ܕܡܐ̈ܢܐ ܗܠܝܢ ܕܥܒܕ ܫܠܝܡܘܢ18 There was such an enormous quantity of them that the weight of the bronze could not be calculated.
19 Solomon made al the objects designed for the Temple of God, as wel as the golden altar and thetables for the loaves of permanent offering;
20 the lamp-stands with their lamps to burn, as prescribed, in front of the Debir, of pure gold;
21 the floral work, the lamps, the tongs, of gold (and it was pure gold);
22 the snuffers, the sprinkling bowls, incense ladles and the pans, of real gold; and the entrance to theTemple, the inner doors (for the Holy of Holies) and the doors of the Temple itself, that is of the Hekal, were alsomade of gold.
