7:23 The bronze water tank

(2 Chr. 4:2-5)

23Huram also cast a very large round basin nicknamed ‘The sea’ that was five metres across (so a circumference of fourteen metres) and over two metres high. 24Part of the same casting was two rows of decorative buds that went around it under the lip of the basin. There were about eighteen buds for each metre of circumference. 25Twelve bronze cattle had also been cast and the large basin was sitting on their backs. The cattle were facing outwards with three facing towards each of the four compass points. 26The basin was about 8cm thick and it had a lip around the outside like a lily blossom. It could contain around forty-four thousand litres of water.

23And_he/it_made DOM the_sea throw_[metal] [was]_ten in/on/at/with_cubits from_brim_him to brim_him round all_around and_five in/on/at/with_cubits high_its and_line[fn] thirty in/on/at/with_cubits it_went_round DOM_him/it all_around.
