Ezekiel 41-42

Ezekiel 41

¹And he bringeth me in unto the temple, and he measureth the posts, six cubits the breadth on this side, and six cubits the breadth on that side -- the breadth of the tent.

²And the breadth of the opening is ten cubits; and the sides of the opening are five cubits on this side, and five cubits on that side; and he measureth its length forty cubits, and the breadth twenty cubits.

³And he hath gone inward, and measureth the post of the opening two cubits, and the opening six cubits, and the breadth of the opening seven cubits.

⁴And he measureth its length twenty cubits, and the breadth twenty cubits, unto the front of the temple, and he saith unto me, ‘This is the holy of holies.'

⁵And he measureth the wall of the house six cubits, and the breadth of the side-chamber four cubits, all round the house round about.

⁶And the side-chambers are side-chamber by side-chamber, three and thirty times; and they are entering into the wall -- which the house hath for the side-chambers all round about -- to be taken hold of, and they are not taken hold of by the wall of the house.

⁷And a broad place and a turning place still upwards are to the side-chambers, for the turning round of the house is still upwards all round about the house: therefore the breadth of the house is upwards, and so the lower one goeth up unto the higher by the midst.

⁸And I have looked at the house, the height all round about: the foundations of the side-chambers are the fulness of the reed, six cubits by the joining.

⁹The breadth of the wall that is to the side-chamber at the outside is five cubits; and that which is left is the place of the side-chambers that are to the house.

¹⁰And between the chambers is a breadth of twenty cubits round about the house, all round about.

¹¹And the opening of the side-chamber is to the place left, one opening northward, and one opening southward, and the breadth of the place that is left is five cubits all round about.

¹²As to the building that is at the front of the separate place at the corner westward, the breadth is seventy cubits, and the wall of the building five cubits broad all round about, and its length ninety cubits.

¹³And he hath measured the house, the length is a hundred cubits; and the separate place, and the building, and its walls, the length is a hundred cubits;

¹⁴and the breadth of the front of the house, and of the separate place eastward, a hundred cubits.

¹⁵And he hath measured the length of the building unto the front of the separate place that is at its hinder part, and its galleries on this side and on that side, a hundred cubits, and the inner temple and the porches of the court,

¹⁶the thresholds, and the narrow windows, and the galleries round about them three, over-against the threshold, a ceiling of wood all round about, and the ground unto the windows and the covered windows,

¹⁷over above the opening, and unto the inner-house, and at the outside, and by all the wall all round about within and without by measure.

¹⁸And it is made with cherubs and palm-trees, and a palm-tree is between cherub and cherub, and two faces are to the cherub;

¹⁹and the face of man is unto the palm-tree on this side, and the face of a young lion unto the palm-tree on that side; it is made unto all the house all round about.

²⁰from the earth unto above the opening are the cherubs and the palm-trees made, and on the wall of the temple.

²¹Of the temple the side post is square, and of the front of the sanctuary, the appearance is as the appearance.

²²Of the altar, the wood is three cubits in height, and its length two cubits; and its corners are to it, and its length, and its walls are of wood, and he speaketh unto me, ‘This is the table that is before Jehovah.'

²³And two doors are to the temple and to the sanctuary;

²⁴and two leaves are to the doors, two turning leaves are to the doors, two to the one door, and two leaves to the other.

²⁵And made on them, on the doors of the temple, are cherubs and palm-trees as are made on the walls, and a thickness of wood is at the front of the porch on the outside.

²⁶And narrow windows and palm-trees are on this side, and on that side, at the sides of the porch, and the side-chambers of the house, and the thick places.

Ezekiel 42

¹And he bringeth me forth unto the outer court, the way northward, and he bringeth me in unto the chamber that is over-against the separate place, and that is over-against the building at the north.

²At the front of the length is a hundred cubits at the north opening, and the breadth fifty cubits.

³Over-against the twenty cubits that are to the inner court, and over-against the pavement that is to the outer court, is gallery over-against gallery, in the three storeys.

⁴And at the front of the chambers is a walk of ten cubits in breadth unto the inner part, a way of one cubit, and their openings are at the north.

⁵And the upper chambers are short, for the galleries contain more than these, than the lower, and than the middle one, of the building;

⁶for they are threefold, and they have no pillars as the pillars of the court, therefore it hath been kept back -- more than the lower and than the middle one -- from the ground.

⁷As to the wall that is at the outside, over-against the chambers, the way of the outer-court at the front of the chambers, its length is fifty cubits;

⁸for the length of the chambers that are to the outer court is fifty cubits, and of those on the front of the temple a hundred cubits.

⁹And under these chambers is the entrance from the east, in one's going into them from the outer court.

¹⁰In the breadth of the wall of the court eastward, unto the front of the separate place, and unto the front of the building, are chambers.

¹¹And the way before them is as the appearance of the chambers that are northward, according to their length so is their breadth, and all their outlets, and according to their fashions, and according to their openings.

¹²And according to the openings of the chambers that are southward is an opening at the head of the way, the way directly in the front of the wall eastward in entering them.

¹³And he saith unto me, ‘The north chambers, the south chambers, that are at the front of the separate place, they are holy chambers, where the priests (who are near to Jehovah) eat the most holy things, there they place the most holy things, and the present, and the sin-offering, and the guilt-offering, for the place is holy.

¹⁴In the priests' going in, they come not out from the sanctuary unto the outer court, and there they place their garments with which they minister, for they are holy, and have put on other garments, and have drawn near unto that which is for the people.'

¹⁵And he hath finished the measurements of the inner house, and hath brought me forth the way of the gate whose front is eastward, and he hath measured it all round about.

¹⁶He hath measured the east side with the measuring-reed, five hundred reeds, with the measuring-reed round about.

¹⁷He hath measured the north side, five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed round about.

¹⁸The south side he hath measured, five hundred reeds, with the measuring-reed.

¹⁹He hath turned round unto the west side, he hath measured five hundred reeds with the measuring-reed.

²⁰At the four sides he hath measured it, a wall is to it all round about, the length five hundred, and the breadth five hundred, to separate between the holy and the profane place.
