1
Then he brought[H935] me forth[H3318] into the utter[H2435]court[H2691], the way toward[H1870] the north[H6828]: and he brought[H935] me into the chamber[H3957] that was over against the separate place[H1508], and which was before the building[H1146]toward[H1870] the north[H6828].
2Before[H6440] the length[H753] of an hundred[H3967]cubits[H520] was the north[H6828]door[H6607], and the breadth[H7341] was fifty[H2572]cubits[H520].
3
Over against[H6440] the twenty[H6242] cubits which were for the inner[H6442]court[H2691], and over against[H6440] the pavement[H7531] which was for the utter[H2435]court[H2691], was gallery[H862]against[H6440]gallery[H862] in three[H7992] stories.
4
And before[H6440] the chambers[H3957] was a walk[H4109] of ten[H6235]cubits[H520]breadth[H7341]inward[H6442], a way[H1870] of one[H259]cubit[H520]; and their doors[H6607] toward the north[H6828].
5
Now the upper[H5945]chambers[H3957] were shorter[H7114]: for the galleries[H862] were higher[H398] than these[H2007], than the lower[H8481], and than the middlemost[H8484] of the building[H1146].
6
For they were in three[H8027] stories, but had not pillars[H5982] as the pillars[H5982] of the courts[H2691]: therefore the building was straitened[H680] more than the lowest[H8481] and the middlemost[H8484] from the ground[H776].
7
And the wall[H1447] that was without[H2351] over against[H5980] the chambers[H3957], toward[H1870] the utter[H2435]court[H2691] on the forepart[H6440] of the chambers[H3957], the length[H753] thereof was fifty[H2572]cubits[H520].
8
For the length[H753] of the chambers[H3957] that were in the utter[H2435]court[H2691] was fifty[H2572]cubits[H520]: and, lo, before[H6440] the temple[H1964] were an hundred[H3967]cubits[H520].
9
And from under these chambers[H3957] was the entry[H3996] on the east side[H6921], as one goeth[H935] into them[H2007] from the utter[H2435]court[H2691].
10
The chambers[H3957] were in the thickness[H7341] of the wall[H1444] of the court[H2691]toward[H1870] the east[H6921], over against[H6440] the separate place[H1508], and over against[H6440] the building[H1146].
11
And the way[H1870]before[H6440] them was like the appearance[H4758] of the chambers[H3957] which were toward[H1870] the north[H6828], as[H753] long as[H3651] they, and as[H7341] broad as[H7341] they: and all their goings out[H4161] were both according to their fashions[H4941], and according to their doors[H6607].
12
And according to the doors[H6607] of the chambers[H3957] that were toward[H1870] the south[H1864] was a door[H6607] in the head[H7218] of the way[H1870], even the way[H1870]directly[H1903]before[H6440] the wall[H1448]toward[H1870] the east[H6921], as one entereth[H935] into them.
13
Then said[H559] he unto me, The north[H6828]chambers[H3957] and the south[H1864]chambers[H3957], which are before[H6440] the separate place[H1508], they be holy[H6944]chambers[H3957], where the priests[H3548] that approach[H7138] unto the LORD[H3068] shall eat[H398] the most[H6944]holy[H6918]things[H6944]: there shall they lay[H3240] the most[H6944]holy[H6918]things[H6944], and the meat offering[H4503], and the sin offering[H2403], and the trespass offering[H817]; for the place[H4725] is holy[H6918].
14
When the priests[H3548]enter[H935] therein, then shall they not go out[H3318] of the holy[H6944] place into the utter[H2435]court[H2691], but there they shall lay[H3240] their garments[H899] wherein they minister[H8334]; for they are holy[H6944]; and shall put[H3847] on other[H312]garments[H899], and shall approach[H7126] to those things which are for the people[H5971].
15
Now when he had made an end[H3615] of measuring[H4060] the inner[H6442]house[H1004], he brought me forth[H3318]toward[H1870] the gate[H8179] whose prospect[H6440] is toward[H1870] the east[H6921], and measured[H4058] it round about[H5439].
16
He measured[H4058] the east[H6921]side[H7307] with the measuring[H4060]reed[H7070], five[H2568]hundred[H3967]reeds[H7070], with the measuring[H4060]reed[H7070] round about[H5439].
17
He measured[H4058] the north[H6828]side[H7307], five[H2568]hundred[H3967]reeds[H7070], with the measuring[H4060]reed[H7070] round about[H5439].
18
He measured[H4058] the south[H1864]side[H7307], five[H2568]hundred[H3967]reeds[H7070], with the measuring[H4060]reed[H7070].
19
He turned about[H5437] to the west[H3220]side[H7307], and measured[H4058]five[H2568]hundred[H3967]reeds[H7070] with the measuring[H4060]reed[H7070].
20
He measured[H4058] it by the four[H702]sides[H7307]: it had a wall[H2346] round about[H5439], five[H2568]hundred[H3967] reeds long[H753], and five[H2568]hundred[H3967]broad[H7341], to make a separation[H914] between the sanctuary[H6944] and the profane place[H2455].
