12that is, he made(the) two pillars, and their pommels, and (the) heads, and as some nets, that covered the heads above the pommels; (that is, he made the two pillars, and two bowl-shaped capitals on the tops of the pillars, and the networks that covered the bowl-shaped capitals on the tops of the pillars;)

13also he made forty pomegranates, and two works like nets, so that the two orders of pomegranates were joined to each work like nets, which covered the pommels, and the heads of the pillars.

(and the cauldrons, and fleshhooks, and basins. Hiram, the father of Solomon, so-called because of his age, or because of the excellence of his craftsmanship, made all the vessels for Solomon for the House of the Lord out of burnished bronze.)

17The king melted out those vessels in the country(side) of Jordan, in [the] clay land between Succoth and Zeredathah.

18Forsooth the multitude of vessels was unnumberable, so that the weight of brass was not known (or so that the weight of the bronze was unknown).

19And Solomon made all the vessels of God’s house, the golden altar, and (the) boards/the meat tables, and the loaves of setting forth upon those; (And Solomon also made all the vessels for God’s House, the gold altar, and the tables, on which the loaves of proposition,or the loaves of setting forth, were put;)

20and candlesticks of purest gold, with their lanterns, that those should shine before God’s answering place, by the custom; (and the candlesticks, with their lanterns, out of the purest gold, which would shine before the Most Holy Place, that is, the Holy of Holies, after the custom;)
