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.

19 Los capiteles que estaban sobre las columnas en el pórtico, tenían labor de flores por cuatro codos.
