14 Hijo de una viuda de la tribu de Nephtalí, y su padre había sido de Tiro: trabajaba él en bronce, lleno de sabiduría y de inteligencia y saber en toda obra de metal. Este pues vino al rey Salomón, é hizo toda su obra.

15 Y vació dos columnas de bronce, la altura de cada cual era de diez y ocho codos: y rodeaba á una y á otra columna un hilo de doce codos.

16 Hizo también dos capiteles de fundición de bronce, para que fuesen puestos sobre las cabezas de las columnas: la altura de un capitel era de cinco codos, y la del otro capitel de cinco codos.

17 Había trenzas á manera de red, y unas cintas á manera de cadenas, para los capiteles que [se habían de poner] sobre las cabezas de las columnas: siete para cada capitel.

18 Y cuando hubo hecho las columnas, hizo también dos órdenes [de granadas] alrededor en el un enredado, para cubrir los capiteles que estaban en las cabezas [de las columnas] con las granadas: y de la misma forma hizo en el otro capitel.
