1 Kings 7:25 in Context — 1 Kings 7

23 Il fit la mer de fonte. Elle avait dix coudées d’un bord à l’autre, une forme entièrement ronde, cinq coudées de hauteur, et une circonférence que mesurait un cordon de trente coudées.

24 Des coloquintes l’entouraient au-dessous de son bord, dix par coudée, faisant tout le tour de la mer; les coloquintes, disposées sur deux rangs, étaient fondues avec elle en une seule pièce.

25 Elle était posée sur douze bœufs, dont trois tournés vers le nord, trois tournés vers l’occident, trois tournés vers le midi, et trois tournés vers l’orient; la mer était sur eux, et toute la partie postérieure de leur corps était en dedans.

26 Son épaisseur était d’un palme; et son bord, semblable au bord d’une coupe, était façonné en fleur de lis. Elle contenait deux mille baths.

27 Il fit les dix bases d’airain. Chacune avait quatre coudées de longueur, quatre coudées de largeur, et trois coudées de hauteur.
