2 Chronicles 4:2-4
1599 Geneva Bible
2 And he made a molten [a]Sea of ten cubits from brim to brim, round in compass, and five cubits high: and a line of thirty cubits did compass it about.
3 And under [b]it was the fashion of oxen, which did compass it round about, [c]ten in a cubit compassing the Sea about: two rows of oxen were cast when it was molten.
4 It stood upon twelve oxen: three looked toward the North, and three looked toward the West, and three looked toward the South, and three looked toward the East, and the Sea stood above upon them, and all their hinder parts were inward.
