47 Solomon left all the utensils unweighed, because they were too many; 1the weight of the bronze could not be ascertained.
48 Solomon made all the furniture which was in the house of the LORD: 2the golden altar and the golden table on which was the 3bread of the Presence;
49 and the lampstands, five on the right side and five on the left, in front of the inner sanctuary, of pure gold; and 4the flowers and the lamps and the tongs, of gold;
50 and the cups and the snuffers and the bowls and the spoons and the 5firepans, of pure gold; and the hinges both for the doors of the inner house, the most holy place, and for the doors of the house, that is, of the nave, of gold.
