Holman Christian Standard Bible
29 and on the frames between the cross-pieces were lions, oxen, and cherubim.(A) On the cross-pieces there was a pedestal above, and below the lions and oxen were wreaths of hanging[a] work. 30 Each cart(B) had four bronze wheels with bronze axles. Underneath the four corners of the basin were cast supports, each next to a wreath. 31 And the water cart’s opening inside the crown on top was 18 inches[b] wide. The opening was round, made as a pedestal 27 inches[c] wide. On it were carvings, but their frames were square, not round.

New International Version
29 On the panels between the uprights were lions, bulls and cherubim—and on the uprights as well. Above and below the lions and bulls were wreaths of hammered work. 30 Each stand(A) had four bronze wheels with bronze axles, and each had a basin resting on four supports, cast with wreaths on each side. 31 On the inside of the stand there was an opening that had a circular frame one cubit[a] deep. This opening was round, and with its basework it measured a cubit and a half.[b] Around its opening there was engraving. The panels of the stands were square, not round.
