17 And the (A)pillars of bronze that were in the house of the Lord, and the stands and the (B)bronze sea that were in the house of the Lord, the Chaldeans broke in pieces, and (C)carried all the bronze to Babylon. 18 And they took away (D)the pots and the shovels and the snuffers and the basins and the dishes for incense and all the vessels of bronze used in the temple service; 19 (E)also the small bowls and the firepans and the basins and the pots and (F)the lampstands and (G)the dishes for incense (H)and the bowls for drink offerings. What was of gold the captain of the guard took away as gold, and what was of silver, as silver. 20 As for the two pillars, the one sea, (I)the twelve bronze bulls that were under the sea,[a] and the stands, which Solomon the king had made for the house of the Lord, the bronze of all these things was beyond weight. 21 As for the pillars, the height of one pillar was eighteen cubits,[b] (J)its circumference was twelve cubits, and its thickness was four fingers, and it was hollow. 22 On it was a capital of bronze. The height of the capital was (K)five cubits. A network and pomegranates, all of bronze, were round the capital. And the second pillar had the same, with pomegranates. 23 There were ninety-six pomegranates on the sides; all the pomegranates were a hundred upon the network all round.

17 The Babylonians broke up the bronze pillars,(A) the movable stands(B) and the bronze Sea(C) that were at the temple of the Lord and they carried all the bronze to Babylon.(D) 18 They also took away the pots, shovels, wick trimmers, sprinkling bowls,(E) dishes and all the bronze articles used in the temple service.(F) 19 The commander of the imperial guard took away the basins, censers,(G) sprinkling bowls, pots, lampstands,(H) dishes(I) and bowls used for drink offerings(J)—all that were made of pure gold or silver.(K)
20 The bronze from the two pillars, the Sea and the twelve bronze bulls(L) under it, and the movable stands, which King Solomon had made for the temple of the Lord, was more than could be weighed.(M) 21 Each pillar was eighteen cubits high and twelve cubits in circumference[a]; each was four fingers thick, and hollow.(N) 22 The bronze capital(O) on top of one pillar was five cubits[b] high and was decorated with a network and pomegranates(P) of bronze all around. The other pillar, with its pomegranates, was similar. 23 There were ninety-six pomegranates on the sides; the total number of pomegranates(Q) above the surrounding network was a hundred.(R)
