1 Kings 7:23 in Context — 1 Kings 7
21 Estas columnas erigió en el pórtico del templo: y cuando hubo alzado la columna de la mano derecha, púsole por nombre Jachîn: y alzando la columna de la mano izquierda, llamó su nombre Boaz.
22 Y [puso] en las cabezas de las columnas labor [en forma] de azucenas; y así se acabó la obra de las columnas.
23 Hizo asimismo un mar de fundición, de diez codos del un lado al otro, perfectamente redondo: su altura era de cinco codos, y ceñíalo alrededor un cordón de treinta codos.
24 Y cercaban aquel mar por debajo de su labio en derredor unas bolas como calabazas, diez en cada codo, que ceñían el mar alrededor en dos órdenes, las cuales habían sido fundidas cuando él fué fundido.
25 Y estaba [asentado] sobre doce bueyes: tres miraban al norte, y tres miraban al poniente, y tres miraban al mediodía, y tres miraban al oriente; sobre éstos se apoyaba el mar, y las traseras de ellos estaban hacia la parte de adentro.
