The KJV renders 3 different Hebrew words as “wrought”
What it means
something cut, i.e. dressed stone
from H1491 (גָּזָה);
How the KJV renders it
hewed, hewn stone, wrought
Where that flattens a distinction
The same English word is also used for these other originals, so the distinction between them disappears in translation.
“wrought”
also renders maʻăseh (H4639), mishbᵉtsâh (H4865)
“hewed”
also renders machtsêb (H4274)
