The ten bases of bronze and the ten basins of bronze
놋으로 만든 받침 열과 물두멍 열
1 Kings 7:27–39: the text says, “He made the ten bases of bronze. The length of one base was four cubits, four cubits its width, and three cubits its height.” The bases had panels between the ledges, and on the panels that were between the ledges were lions, oxen, and cherubim; on the ledges there was a pedestal above, and beneath the lions and oxen were wreaths of hanging work. Every base had four bronze wheels and axles of bronze, and its four feet had supports; the supports were cast beneath the basin, with wreaths at the side of each. 7:31 says, “Its opening within the capital and above was a cubit. Its opening was round like the work of a pedestal, a cubit and a half; and also on its opening were engravings, and their panels were square, not round.” The four wheels were underneath the panels, and the axles of the wheels were in the base; the height of a wheel was a cubit and half a cubit. The work of the wheels was like the work of a chariot wheel; their axles, their rims, their spokes, and their hubs were all of cast metal. There were four supports at the four corners of each base, and in the top of the base there was a round band half a cubit high. On the plates of its supports and on its panels, he engraves cherubim, lions, and palm trees, each in its space, with wreaths all around. He makes the ten bases in this way: all of them had one casting, one measure, and one form. He makes ten basins of bronze; one basin contained forty baths, every basin measured four cubits, and one basin was on every one of the ten bases. He sets the bases, five on the right side of the house and five on the left side of the house, and he sets the sea on the right side of the house eastward and toward the south. The Korean Revised Version names no maker in these verses, and gives the measures of 7:31 in other words: 그 받침 위로 들이켜 고가 한 규빗 되게 내민 것이 있고 그 면은 직경 한 규빗 반 되게 반원형으로 우묵하며.

27He made the ten bases of bronze. The length of one base was four cubits, four cubits its width, and three cubits its height.
28The work of the bases was like this: they had panels; and there were panels between the ledges;
29and on the panels that were between the ledges were lions, oxen, and cherubim; and on the ledges there was a pedestal above; and beneath the lions and oxen were wreaths of hanging work.
30Every base had four bronze wheels and axles of bronze; and its four feet had supports. The supports were cast beneath the basin, with wreaths at the side of each.
