2 Chronicles 4:3-7

Now figures like oxen were under it and all around it, ten cubits, entirely encircling the Sea. The oxen were in two rows, cast in one piece.

It was standing on twelve oxen, three facing north, three facing west, three facing south, and three facing east; and the Sea was set on top of them and all their hindquarters turned inward.

It was a hand width thick, and its brim was made like the brim of a cup, like a lily blossom; it could hold three thousand baths.

He also made ten basins in which to wash, and he set five on the right side and five on the left to rinse things for the burnt offering; but the Sea was for the priests to wash in.

Then he made the ten golden lampstands in the way prescribed for them, and he set them in the temple, five on the right side and five on the left.
