:

Every lodge was one reed long, and one reed broad; and [the space] between the lodges was five cubits; and the threshold of the gate by the porch of the gate toward the house was one reed.

:

He measured also the porch of the gate toward the house, one reed.

:

Then measured he the porch of the gate, eight cubits; and its posts, two cubits; and the porch of the gate was toward the house.

:

The lodges of the gate eastward were three on this side, and three on that side; they three were of one measure: and the posts had one measure on this side and on that side.

:

He measured the breadth of the opening of the gate, ten cubits; and the length of the gate, thirteen cubits;

:

and a border before the lodges, one cubit [on this side], and a border, one cubit on that side; and the lodges, six cubits on this side, and six cubits on that side.

:

He measured the gate from the roof of the one lodge to the roof of the other, a breadth of twenty-five cubits; door against door.

:

He made also posts, sixty cubits; and the court [reached] to the posts, around the gate.

:

[From] the forefront of the gate at the entrance to the forefront of the inner porch of the gate were fifty cubits.

:

There were closed windows to the lodges, and to their posts within the gate all around, and likewise to the arches; and windows were around inward; and on [each] post were palm trees.

:

Then brought he me into the outer court; and behold, there were rooms and a pavement, made for the court all around: thirty rooms were on the pavement.

:

The pavement was by the side of the gates, answerable to the length of the gates, even the lower pavement.

:

Then he measured the breadth from the forefront of the lower gate to the forefront of the inner court outside, one hundred cubits, [both] on the east and on the north.

:

The gate of the outer court whose prospect is toward the north, he measured its length and its breadth.

:

The lodges of it were three on this side and three on that side; and its posts and its arches were after the measure of the first gate: its length was fifty cubits, and the breadth twenty-five cubits.

:

The windows of it, and its arches, and the palm trees of it, were after the measure of the gate whose prospect is toward the east; and they went up to it by seven steps; and its arches were before them.

:

There was a gate to the inner court over against the [other] gate, [both] on the north and on the east; and he measured from gate to gate one hundred cubits.

:

He led me toward the south; and behold, a gate toward the south: and he measured its posts and its arches according to these measures.

:

There were windows in it and in its arches all around, like those windows: the length was fifty cubits, and the breadth twenty-five cubits.

:

There were seven steps to go up to it, and its arches were before them; and it had palm trees, one on this side, and another on that side, on its posts.

:

There was a gate to the inner court toward the south: and he measured from gate to gate toward the south a hundred cubits.

:

Then he brought me to the inner court by the south gate: and he measured the south gate according to these measures;

:

and its lodges, and its posts, and its arches, according to these measures: and there were windows in it and in its arches all around; it was fifty cubits long, and twenty-five cubits broad.

:

There were arches all around, twenty-five cubits long, and five cubits broad.

:

The arches of it were toward the outer court; and palm trees were on its posts: and the ascent to it had eight steps.

:

He brought me into the inner court toward the east: and he measured the gate according to these measures;

:

and its lodges, and its posts, and its arches, according to these measures: and there were windows therein and in its arches all around; it was fifty cubits long, and twenty-five cubits broad.

:

The arches of it were toward the outer court; and palm trees were on its posts, on this side, and on that side: and the ascent to it had eight steps.

:

He brought me to the north gate: and he measured [it] according to these measures;

:

its lodges, its posts, and its arches: and there were windows therein all around; the length was fifty cubits, and the breadth twenty-five cubits.

:

The posts of it were toward the outer court; and palm trees were on its posts, on this side, and on that side: and the ascent to it had eight steps.

:

A room with its door was by the posts at the gates; there they washed the burnt offering.

:

In the porch of the gate were two tables on this side, and two tables on that side, to kill thereon the burnt offering and the sin offering and the trespass offering.

:

On the [one] side outside, as one goes up to the entry of the gate toward the north, were two tables; and on the other side, which belonged to the porch of the gate, were two tables.

:

Four tables were on this side, and four tables on that side, by the side of the gate; eight tables, whereupon they killed [the sacrifices].

:

There were four tables for the burnt offering, of cut stone, a cubit and a half long, and a cubit and a half broad, and one cubit high; whereupon they laid the instruments with which they killed the burnt offering and the sacrifice.

:

The hooks, a handbreadth long, were fastened within all around: and on the tables was the flesh of the offering.

:

Outside of the inner gate were rooms for the singers in the inner court, which was at the side of the north gate; and their prospect was toward the south; one at the side of the east gate having the prospect toward the north.

:

He said to me, This room, whose prospect is toward the south, is for the priests, the keepers of the duty of the house;

:

and the room whose prospect is toward the north is for the priests, the keepers of the duty of the altar: these are the sons of Zadok, who from among the sons of Levi come near to Yahweh to minister to him.

:

He measured the court, one hundred cubits long, and a hundred cubits broad, foursquare; and the altar was before the house.

:

Then he brought me to the porch of the house, and measured each post of the porch, five cubits on this side, and five cubits on that side: and the breadth of the gate was three cubits on this side, and three cubits on that side.

:

The length of the porch was twenty cubits, and the breadth eleven cubits; even by the steps by which they went up to it: and there were pillars by the posts, one on this side, and another on that side.

:

He brought me to the temple, and measured the posts, six cubits broad on the one side, and six cubits broad on the other side, which was the breadth of the tent.

:

The breadth of the entrance was ten cubits; and the sides of the entrance were five cubits on the one side, and five cubits on the other side: and he measured its length, forty cubits, and the breadth, twenty cubits.

:

Then went he inward, and measured each post of the entrance, two cubits; and the entrance, six cubits; and the breadth of the entrance, seven cubits.

:

He measured its length, twenty cubits, and the breadth, twenty cubits, before the temple: and he said to me, This is the most holy place.

:

Then he measured the wall of the house, six cubits; and the breadth of every side room, four cubits, all around the house on every side.

:

The side rooms were in three stories, one over another, and thirty in order; and they entered into the wall which belonged to the house for the side rooms all around, that they might have hold [therein], and not have hold in the wall of the house.

:

The side rooms were broader as they encompassed [the house] higher and higher; for the encompassing of the house went higher and higher around the house: therefore the breadth of the house [continued] upward; and so one went up [from] the lowest [room] to the highest by the middle [room].

:

I saw also that the house had a raised base all around: the foundations of the side rooms were a full reed of six great cubits.

:

The thickness of the wall, which was for the side rooms, on the outside, was five cubits: and that which was left was the place of the side rooms that belonged to the house.

:

Between the rooms was a breadth of twenty cubits around the house on every side.

:

The doors of the side rooms were toward [the place] that was left, one door toward the north, and another door toward the south: and the breadth of the place that was left was five cubits all around.

:

The building that was before the separate place at the side toward the west was seventy cubits broad; and the wall of the building was five cubits thick all around, and its length ninety cubits.

:

So he measured the house, one hundred cubits long; and the separate place, and the building, with its walls, one hundred cubits long;

:

also the breadth of the face of the house, and of the separate place toward the east, one hundred cubits.

:

He measured the length of the building before the separate place which was at its back, and its galleries on the one side and on the other side, one hundred cubits; and the inner temple, and the porches of the court;

:

the thresholds, and the closed windows, and the galleries around on their three stories, over against the threshold, with wood ceilings all around, and [from] the ground up to the windows, (now the windows were covered),

:

to [the space] above the door, even to the inner house, and outside, and by all the wall all around inside and outside, by measure.

:

It was made with cherubim and palm trees; and a palm tree was between cherub and cherub, and every cherub had two faces;

:

so that there was the face of a man toward the palm tree on the one side, and the face of a young lion toward the palm tree on the other side. [thus was it] made through all the house all around:

:

from the ground to above the door were cherubim and palm trees made: thus was the wall of the temple.

:

As for the temple, the door posts were squared; and as for the face of the sanctuary, the appearance [of it] was as the appearance [of the temple].

:

The altar was of wood, three cubits high, and its length two cubits; and its corners, and its length, and its walls, were of wood: and he said to me, This is the table that is before Yahweh.

:

The temple and the sanctuary had two doors.

:

The doors had two leaves [apiece], two turning leaves: two [leaves] for the one door, and two leaves for the other.

:

There were made on them, on the doors of the temple, cherubim and palm trees, like as were made on the walls; and there was a threshold of wood on the face of the porch outside.

:

There were closed windows and palm trees on the one side and on the other side, on the sides of the porch: thus were the side rooms of the house, and the thresholds.

:

Then he brought me forth into the outer court, the way toward the north: and he brought me into the room that was over against the separate place, and which was over against the building toward the north.

:

Before the length of one hundred cubits was the north door, and the breadth was fifty cubits.

:

Over against the twenty [cubits] which belonged to the inner court, and over against the pavement which belonged to the outer court, was gallery against gallery in the third story.

:

Before the rooms was a walk of ten cubits’ breadth inward, a way of one cubit; and their doors were toward the north.

:

Now the upper rooms were shorter; for the galleries took away from these, more than from the lower and the middle, in the building.

:

For they were in three stories, and they didn’t have pillars as the pillars of the courts: therefore [the uppermost] was straitened more than the lowest and the middle from the ground.

:

The wall that was outside by the side of the rooms, toward the outer court before the rooms, its length was fifty cubits.

:

For the length of the rooms that were in the outer court was fifty cubits: and behold, before the temple were one hundred cubits.

:

From under these rooms was the entry on the east side, as one goes into them from the outer court.

:

In the thickness of the wall of the court toward the east, before the separate place, and before the building, there were rooms.

:

The way before them was like the appearance of [the way of] the rooms which were toward the north; according to their length so was their breadth: and all their exits were both according to their fashions, and according to their doors.

:

According to the doors of the rooms that were toward the south was a door at the head of the way, even the way directly before the wall toward the east, as one enters into them.

:

Then he said to me, The north rooms and the south rooms, which are before the separate place, they are the holy rooms, where the priests who are near to Yahweh shall eat the most holy things: there shall they lay the most holy things, and the meal offering, and the sin offering, and the trespass offering; for the place is holy.

:

When the priests enter in, then shall they not go out of the holy place into the outer court, but there they shall lay their garments in which they minister; for they are holy: and they shall put on other garments, and shall approach to that which pertains to the people.

:

Now when he had made an end of measuring the inner house, he brought me forth by the way of the gate whose prospect is toward the east, and measured it all around.

:

He measured on the east side with the measuring reed five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed all around.

:

He measured on the north side five hundred reeds with the measuring reed all around.

:

He measured on the south side five hundred reeds with the measuring reed.

:

He turned about to the west side, and measured five hundred reeds with the measuring reed.

:

He measured it on the four sides: it had a wall around it, the length five hundred, and the breadth five hundred, to make a separation between that which was holy and that which was common.

:

Afterward he brought me to the gate, even the gate that looks toward the east.

:

Behold, the glory of the God of Israel came from the way of the east: and his voice was like the sound of many waters; and the earth shined with his glory.

:

It was according to the appearance of the vision which I saw, even according to the vision that I saw when I came to destroy the city; and the visions were like the vision that I saw by the river Chebar; and I fell on my face.

:

The glory of Yahweh came into the house by the way of the gate whose prospect is toward the east.

:

The Spirit took me up, and brought me into the inner court; and behold, the glory of Yahweh filled the house.

:

I heard one speaking to me out of the house; and a man stood by me.

:

He said to me, Son of man, [this is] the place of my throne, and the place of the soles of my feet, where I will dwell in the midst of the children of Israel forever. The house of Israel shall no more defile my holy name, neither they, nor their kings, by their prostitution, and by the dead bodies of their kings [in] their high places;

:

in their setting of their threshold by my threshold, and their doorpost beside my doorpost, and there was [but] the wall between me and them; and they have defiled my holy name by their abominations which they have committed: therefore I have consumed them in my anger.

:

Now let them put away their prostitution, and the dead bodies of their kings, far from me; and I will dwell in the midst of them forever.

:

You, son of man, show the house to the house of Israel, that they may be ashamed of their iniquities; and let them measure the pattern.

:

If they be ashamed of all that they have done, make known to them the form of the house, and its fashion, and its exits, and its entrances, and all its forms, and all its ordinances, and all its forms, and all its laws; and write it in their sight; that they may keep the whole form of it, and all its ordinances, and do them.
