1 Kings 7:27-37 - The Bronze Water Carts
27 Huram also made ten copper carts. Each cart was six feet long, six feet wide, and four and one half feet high. 28 They were made of square panels set in frames. 29 There were figures of lions, bulls, and cherubim on the panels. And there were spiral relief figures on the frames above and underneath the lions and bulls. 30 Each cart had four copper wheels with copper axles. At the four corners were copper supports for a basin. The supports were decorated with spiral relief figures. 31 There was a circular frame on top for the basin. It projected eighteen inches upward from the top of the cart and seven inches down into it. It had carvings around it. 32 The wheels were under the panels. They were twenty-five inches high. The axles were of one piece with the carts. 33 The wheels were like chariot wheels. Their axles, rims, spokes, and hubs were all of copper. 34 There were four supports at the bottom corners of each cart. They were of one piece with the cart. 35 There was a nine-inch band around the top of each cart. Its supports and the panels were of one piece with the cart. 36 The supports and panels were decorated with figures of cherubim, lions, and palm trees, wherever there was space for them, with spiral figures all around. 37 This is how the carts were made. They were all alike, having the same size and shape.
