23And he made a great metal water-vessel ten cubits across from edge to edge, five cubits high and thirty cubits round.
24And under the edge of it, circling it all round for ten cubits, were two lines of flower buds, made together with it from liquid metal.
25It was supported on twelve oxen, with their back parts turned to the middle of it, three of them facing to the north, three to the west, three to the south, and three to the east; the vessel was resting on top of them.
26It was as thick as a man's open hand, and was curved like the edge of a cup, like the flower of a lily: it would take two thousand baths.
27And he made ten wheeled bases of brass; every one four cubits long, four cubits wide, and three cubits high.
28And the bases were made in this way; their sides were square, fixed in a framework;
29And on the square sides between the frames were lions, oxen, and winged ones; and the same on the frame; and over and under the lions and the oxen and the winged ones were steps.
