17 The king cast them in clay molds in the Jordan Valley between Succoth and Zarethan.
18 Due to the very large number of objects, Solomon didn’t even try to weigh the bronze.
19 Solomon also made all the equipment for God’s temple: the gold altar; the tables for the bread of the presence;
20 the lampstands with their lamps, all of pure gold, to burn before the inner sanctuary as prescribed;
21 the flowers, the lamps, and the tongs of pure gold;
22 and the wick trimmers, bowls, ladles, and censers of pure gold. As for the temple entrance, the inner doors to the most holy place as well as the doors to the main hall were made of gold.
