2 Kings 25:13-17

Nebuchadnezzar Besieges Jerusalem

¹³Now the Chaldeans smashed to pieces the bronze pillars which were in the house of the Lord, and the stands and the bronze Sea which were in the house of the Lord, and carried the bronze to Babylon. ¹⁴And they took away the pots, the shovels, the shears, the spoons, and all the bronze utensils which were used in temple service. ¹⁵The captain of the bodyguards also took away the firepans and the basins, what was fine gold and what was fine silver. ¹⁶The two pillars, the one Sea, and the stands which Solomon had made for the house of the Lord—the bronze of all these articles was too heavy to weigh. ¹⁷The height of the one pillar was eighteen cubits, and a bronze capital was on it; the height of the capital was three cubits, with latticework and pomegranates on the capital all around, all of bronze. And the second pillar was like these, same features with latticework.
