2 Chronicles 4:1-10

He made a bronze altar thirty feet long, thirty feet wide, and fifteen feet tall. Then he made from bronze a large round bowl, which was called the Sea. It was forty-five feet around, fifteen feet across, and seven and one-half feet deep. There were carvings of bulls under the rim of the bowl—ten bulls every eighteen inches. They were in two rows and were made in one piece with the bowl. The bowl rested on the backs of twelve bronze bulls that faced outward from the center of the bowl. Three bulls faced north, three faced west, three faced south, and three faced east. The sides of the bowl were four inches thick, and it held about seventeen thousand five hundred gallons. The rim of the bowl was like the rim of a cup or like a lily blossom. He made ten smaller bowls and put five on the south side and five on the north. They were for washing the animals for the burnt offerings, but the large bowl was for the priests to wash in. He made ten lampstands of gold, following the plans. He put them in the Temple, five on the south side and five on the north. He made ten tables and put them in the Temple, five on the south side and five on the north. And he used gold to make a hundred other bowls. He also made the priests’ courtyard and the large courtyard. He made the doors that opened to the courtyard and covered them with bronze. Then he put the large bowl in the southeast corner of the Temple.
