2 Samuel 5:11Now Hiram king of Tyre sent envoys to David, along with cedar logs, carpenters, and stonemasons, and they built a palace for David.1 Kings 7:13Now King Solomon sent to bring Huram from Tyre.1 Kings 7:14He was the son of a widow from the tribe of Naphtali, and his father was a man of Tyre, a craftsman in bronze. Huram had great skill, understanding, and knowledge for every kind of bronze work. So he came to King Solomon and carried out all his work.1 Kings 7:15He cast two pillars of bronze, each eighteen cubits high and twelve cubits in circumference.1 Kings 7:16He also made two capitals of cast bronze to set on top of the pillars, each capital five cubits high.1 Kings 7:17For the capitals on top of the pillars he made a network of lattice, with wreaths of chainwork, seven for each capital.1 Kings 7:18Likewise, he made the pillars with two rows of pomegranates around each grating to cover each capital atop the pillars.1 Kings 7:19And the capitals atop the pillars in the portico were shaped like lilies, four cubits high.1 Kings 7:20On the capitals of both pillars, just above the rounded projection next to the network, were the two hundred pomegranates in rows encircling each capital.1 Kings 7:21Thus he set up the pillars at the portico of the temple. The pillar to the south he named Jachin, and the pillar to the north he named Boaz.1 Kings 7:22And the tops of the pillars were shaped like lilies. So the work of the pillars was completed.1 Kings 7:23He also made the Sea of cast metal. It was circular in shape, measuring ten cubits from rim to rim, five cubits in height, and thirty cubits in circumference.1 Kings 7:24Below the rim, ornamental buds encircled it, ten per cubit all the way around the Sea, cast in two rows as a part of the Sea.1 Kings 7:25The Sea stood on twelve oxen, three facing north, three facing west, three facing south, and three facing east. The Sea rested on them, with all their hindquarters toward the center.1 Kings 7:26It was a handbreadth thick, and its rim was fashioned like the brim of a cup, like a lily blossom. It could hold two thousand baths.1 Kings 7:27In addition, he made ten movable stands of bronze, each four cubits long, four cubits wide, and three cubits high.1 Kings 7:28This was the design of the stands: They had side panels attached to uprights,1 Kings 7:29and on the panels between the uprights were lions, oxen, and cherubim. On the uprights was a pedestal above, and below the lions and oxen were wreaths of beveled work.1 Kings 7:30Each stand had four bronze wheels with bronze axles and a basin resting on four supports, with wreaths at each side.1 Kings 7:31The opening to each stand inside the crown at the top was one cubit deep, with a round opening like the design of a pedestal, a cubit and a half wide. And around its opening were engravings, but the panels of the stands were square, not round.1 Kings 7:32There were four wheels under the panels, and the axles of the wheels were attached to the stand; each wheel was a cubit and a half in diameter.1 Kings 7:33The wheels were made like chariot wheels; their axles, rims, spokes, and hubs were all of cast metal.1 Kings 7:34Each stand had four handles, one for each corner, projecting from the stand.1 Kings 7:35At the top of each stand was a circular band half a cubit high. The supports and panels were cast as a unit with the top of the stand.1 Kings 7:36He engraved cherubim, lions, and palm trees on the surfaces of the supports and panels, wherever each had space, with wreaths all around.1 Kings 7:37In this way he made the ten stands, each with the same casting, dimensions, and shape.1 Kings 7:38He also made ten bronze basins, each holding forty baths and measuring four cubits across, one basin for each of the ten stands.1 Kings 7:39He set five stands on the south side of the temple and five on the north, and he put the Sea on the south side, at the southeast corner of the temple.1 Kings 7:40Additionally, Huram made the pots, shovels, and sprinkling bowls. So Huram finished all the work that he had undertaken for King Solomon in the house of the LORD:1 Kings 7:41the two pillars; the two bowl-shaped capitals atop the pillars; the two sets of network covering both bowls of the capitals atop the pillars;1 Kings 7:42the four hundred pomegranates for the two sets of network (two rows of pomegranates for each network covering both the bowl-shaped capitals atop the pillars);1 Kings 7:43the ten stands; the ten basins on the stands;1 Kings 7:44the Sea; the twelve oxen underneath the Sea;1 Kings 7:45and the pots, shovels, and sprinkling bowls. All the articles that Huram made for King Solomon in the house of the LORD were made of burnished bronze.1 Kings 9:11King Solomon gave twenty towns in the land of Galilee to Hiram king of Tyre, who had supplied him with cedar and cypress logs and gold for his every desire.1 Kings 9:12So Hiram went out from Tyre to inspect the towns that Solomon had given him, but he was not pleased with them.1 Kings 9:13“What are these towns you have given me, my brother?” asked Hiram, and he called them the Land of Cabul, as they are called to this day.1 Kings 9:14And Hiram had sent the king 120 talents of gold.1 Kings 9:26King Solomon also assembled a fleet of ships at Ezion-geber, which is near Eloth in Edom, on the shore of the Red Sea.1 Kings 9:27And Hiram sent his servants, sailors who knew the sea, to serve in the fleet with Solomon’s servants.1 Kings 9:28They sailed to Ophir and imported gold from there—420 talents—and delivered it to Solomon.1 Kings 10:11(The fleet of Hiram that brought gold from Ophir also brought from Ophir a great cargo of almug wood and precious stones.1 Chronicles 14:1Now Hiram king of Tyre sent envoys to David, along with cedar logs, stonemasons, and carpenters, to build a palace for him.2 Chronicles 2:3Then Solomon sent word to Hiram king of Tyre: “Do for me as you did for my father David when you sent him cedars to build himself a house to live in.2 Chronicles 2:4Behold, I am about to build a house for the Name of the LORD my God to dedicate to Him for burning fragrant incense before Him, for displaying the showbread continuously, and for making burnt offerings every morning and evening as well as on the Sabbaths, New Moons, and appointed feasts of the LORD our God. This is ordained for Israel forever.2 Chronicles 2:5The house that I am building will be great, for our God is greater than all gods.2 Chronicles 2:6But who is able to build a house for Him, since the heavens, even the highest heavens, cannot contain Him? Who then am I, that I should build a house for Him, except as a place to burn sacrifices before Him?2 Chronicles 2:7Send me, therefore, a craftsman skilled in engraving to work with gold and silver, with bronze and iron, and with purple, crimson, and blue yarn. He will work with my craftsmen in Judah and Jerusalem, whom my father David provided.2 Chronicles 2:8Send me also cedar, cypress, and algum logs from Lebanon, for I know that your servants have skill to cut timber there. And indeed, my servants will work with yours2 Chronicles 2:9to prepare for me timber in abundance, because the temple I am building will be great and wonderful.2 Chronicles 2:10I will pay your servants, the woodcutters, 20,000 cors of ground wheat, 20,000 cors of barley, 20,000 baths of wine, and 20,000 baths of olive oil.”2 Chronicles 2:11Then Hiram king of Tyre wrote a letter in reply to Solomon: “Because the LORD loves His people, He has set you over them as king.”2 Chronicles 2:12And Hiram added: “Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, who made the heavens and the earth! He has given King David a wise son with insight and understanding, who will build a temple for the LORD and a royal palace for himself.2 Chronicles 2:13So now I am sending you Huram-abi, a skillful man endowed with creativity.2 Chronicles 2:14He is the son of a woman from the daughters of Dan, and his father is a man of Tyre. He is skilled in work with gold and silver, bronze and iron, stone and wood, purple, blue, and crimson yarn, and fine linen. He is experienced in every kind of engraving and can execute any design that is given him. He will work with your craftsmen and with those of my lord, your father David.2 Chronicles 2:15Now let my lord send to his servants the wheat, barley, olive oil, and wine he promised.2 Chronicles 2:16We will cut logs from Lebanon, as many as you need, and we will float them to you as rafts by sea down to Joppa. Then you can take them up to Jerusalem.”2 Chronicles 4:11Additionally, Huram made the pots, shovels, and sprinkling bowls. So Huram finished the work that he had undertaken for King Solomon in the house of God:2 Chronicles 4:12the two pillars; the two bowl-shaped capitals atop the pillars; the two sets of network covering both bowls of the capitals atop the pillars;2 Chronicles 4:13the four hundred pomegranates for the two sets of network (two rows of pomegranates for each network covering both the bowl-shaped capitals atop the pillars);
