sinoffering: and for peaceofferings two oxen five rams five he goats
and five lambs of one year old. And this was the offering of Ahira, the
son of Enan. Of this manner was the dedication of the altar, when it
was anointed: unto the which was brought of the princes of Israel
twelve chargers of silver twelve silver bowls and twelve spoons of
gold: every charger containing an hundred and thirty sicles of silver,
and every bowl seventy so that all the silver of all the vessels, was
two thousand and four hundred sicles of the holy sicle. And the twelve
golden spoons which were full of cense, contained ten sicles apiece of
the holy sicle: so that all the gold of the spoons, was an hundred and
