Ezekiel, 41

1. Afterward 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 tabernacle.

1. He took me into the Sanctuary and measured its door pillars: six cubits deep on the one side, six cubits deep on the other.

2. And the breadth of the door [was] ten cubits; and the sides of the door [were] five cubits on the one side, and five cubits on the other side: and he measured the length thereof, forty cubits: and the breadth, twenty cubits.

2. The width of the entrance was ten cubits. The walls on each side of the entrance were five cubits on the one side and five cubits on the other. He measured its length: forty cubits; and its width: twenty cubits.

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

3. He went in and measured the door pillars at the entrance: two cubits; then the entrance: six cubits; and the walls on each side of the entrance: seven cubits.

4. So he measured the length thereof, twenty cubits; and the breadth, twenty cubits, before the temple: and he said unto me, This [is] the most holy [place].

4. He measured its length: twenty cubits; and its width measured across the end wall of the Sanctuary: twenty cubits. He then said to me, "This is the most holy place."

5. After he measured the wall of the house, six cubits; and the breadth of [every] side chamber, four cubits, round about the house on every side.

5. He measured the wall of the House: six cubits. The width of the side cells was four cubits, all around the House.

6. And the side chambers [were] three, one over another, and thirty in order; and they entered into the wall which [was] of the house for the side chambers round about, that they might have hold, but they had not hold in the wall of the house.

6. The cells were one above the other, thirty of them in three stories.

7. And [there was] an enlarging, and a winding about still upward to the side chambers: for the winding about of the house went still upward round about the house: therefore the breadth of the house [was still] upward, and so increased [from] the lowest [chamber] to the highest by the midst.

7. The supports for the surrounding cells were fixed into the House wall, so that the cells were not recessed into the wall of the House. The width of the cells increased, story by story, for they surrounded the House in the stories that went right around it.

8. I saw also the height of the house round about: the foundations of the side chambers [were] a full reed of six great cubits.

8. Then I saw that there was a paved terrace all around the House. The height of this, which formed the base of the side cells, was a full rod of six cubits.

9. The thickness of the wall, which [was] for the side chamber without, [was] five cubits: and [that] which [was] left [was] the place of the side chambers that [were] within.

9. The outer wall of the side cells was five cubits thick and the pavement formed a veranda outside the cells of the House.

10. And between the chambers [was] the wideness of twenty cubits round about the house on every side.

10. Beyond the rooms was an area twenty cubits wide right around the House.

11. And the doors of the side chambers [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 round about.

11. And for access from the side cells onto the courtyard there was one entrance on the north side and one entrance on the south side. The width of the courtyard was five cubits all around.

12. Now the building that [was] before the separate place at the end toward the west [was] seventy cubits broad; and the wall of the building [was] five cubits thick round about, and the length thereof ninety cubits.

12. The building to the west of this surrounding area was seventy cubits by ninety cubits, and the wall of the building was five cubits thick, all around.

13. So he measured the house, an hundred cubits long; and the separate place, and the building, with the walls thereof, an hundred cubits long;

13. He measured the length of the House: a hundred cubits. The length of the court plus the building and its walls: a hundred cubits.

14. Also the breadth of the face of the house, and of the separate place toward the east, an hundred cubits.

14. The breadth of the facade of the House with the quadrangle: a hundred cubits.

15. And he measured the length of the building over against the separate place which [was] behind it, and the galleries thereof on the one side and on the other side, an hundred cubits, with the inner temple, and the porches of the court;

15. He measured the length of the building plus the surrounding area at the back, plus the side depth of its door: a hundred cubits. The inside of the Sanctuary and the entrance of the court, their thresholds, the window screens, the three sets of doors, one at each threshold,

16. The door posts, and the narrow windows, and the galleries round about on their three stories, over against the door, cieled with wood round about, and from the ground up to the windows, and the windows [were] covered;

16. were all paneled with wood, from floor to windows, and the windows were screened with lattice-work.

17. To that above the door, even unto the inner house, and without, and by all the wall round about within and without, by measure.

17. From the door to the inner part of the House, and right around the whole wall of the inner room, outside and inside,

18. And [it was] made with cherubims and palm trees, so that a palm tree [was] between a cherub and a cherub; and [every] cherub had two faces;

18. were carved cherubs and palm trees, palm trees and cherubs alternating; each cherub had two faces -

19. So that the face of a man [was] toward the palm tree on the one side, and the face of a young lion toward the palm tree on the other side: [it was] made through all the house round about.

19. the face of a man turned toward the palm tree on one side and the face of a lion toward the palm tree on the other, all around the House. The cherubs and palm trees were carved

20. From the ground unto above the door [were] cherubims and palm trees made, and [on] the wall of the temple.

20. from the floor to above the entrance, as also on the wall of the hall.

21. The posts of the temple [were] squared, [and] the face of the sanctuary; the appearance [of the one] as the appearance [of the other].

21. The pillars of the House were square. In front of the Most Holy Place,

22. The altar of wood [was] three cubits high, and the length thereof two cubits; and the corners thereof, and the length thereof, and the walls thereof, [were] of wood: and he said unto me, This [is] the table that [is] before the LORD.

22. there appeared to be a wooden altar, three cubits high and two cubits square. Its corners, base and sides were of wood. He said to me, "This is the table before Yahweh."

23. And the temple and the sanctuary had two doors.

23. There was a double door for the Temple, and a double door for the Sanctuary.

24. And the doors had two leaves [apiece], two turning leaves; two [leaves] for the one door, and two leaves for the other [door].

24. These doors had two hinged leaves, two leaves for the one door, two leaves for the other.

25. And [there were] made on them, on the doors of the temple, cherubims and palm trees, like as [were] made upon the walls; and [there were] thick planks upon the face of the porch without.

25. On them, on the doors of the Sanctuary, were carved cherubs and palm trees like those carved on the walls. A wooden screen outside went across the front of the Hall.

26. And [there were] narrow windows and palm trees on the one side and on the other side, on the sides of the porch, and [upon] the side chambers of the house, and thick planks.

26. There were screened windows with flanking palm trees on the walls of the House, and of the cells at the side of the House.
