1And he brought me out into the outer court, the way toward the north; and he brought me into the chamber that [was] opposite the separating courtyard, and that opposite the building toward the north.
2Toward the face of [its] length [was] a hundred cubits, with the door [to] the north, and the width [was] fifty cubits.
3Opposite the twenty [cubits] that [were] for the inner court, and opposite the pavement for the outer court, [was] a gallery to the face of a gallery in three parts.
4And before the face of the chambers [was] a walkway, ten cubits wide and a [hundred] cubits long; and their doors [were] to the north.
5And the upper chambers [were] shorter, for the galleries took away from them, on the lower and middle of the building.
6For they [were] in three parts, and there was not unto them pillars like the pillars of the courts; upon thus it was shortened from the ground more than the lower and middle.
7And a wall that [was] on the outside [was] over against the chambers, toward the outer court, toward the face of the chambers; its length [was] fifty cubits.
8For the length of the chambers that [were] toward the outer court [was] fifty cubits, and, behold, upon those facing the temple [was] a hundred cubits.
9And below these chambers [was] the entry on the east, as one enters them from the outer court.
10Along the length of the wall of the court toward the south, toward the face of the separating courtyard, and toward the face of the building, [were] chambers
11and a pathway before them, the appearance of the chambers that [were] toward the north, like their length so their width, and all their exits and according to their doors and according to their fashions,
12and according to their doors of the chambers that [were] toward the south. A door [was] at the head of the walkway, directly at the face of the wall toward the east in entering them.
13And he said to me: “The chambers to the north [and] the chambers to the south, which [are] toward the face of the separating courtyard, they [are] the holy chambers [in] which the priests, those who nearest to YHWH, will eat there the holy of holies; they will lay the holy of holies there—the grain offering, and the sin offering, and the guilt offering—for the place [is] holy.
14With the entering of the priests, they will not go out the holy [area] into the outer court, and there they will leave their garments in which they minister—for they [are] holy—and they will put on other garments, they may come near to [that] which [is] for the people.”
15And he had completed the measurements of the inner temple, and he brought me out through the gateway that [has] its face toward the east, and he measured it round about.
16He measured the side to the east with a measuring rod, five hundred [cubits], by the measuring rod, all around.
17He measured the side to the north, five hundred [cubits], by the measuring rod, all around.
18The side to the south he measured, five hundred [cubits], by the measuring rod.
19He came around to the side to the west; he measured five hundred [cubits], by the measuring rod.
20At the four sides he measured it. A wall [was] unto it round about, a length of five hundred [cubits], and a width of five hundred, to separate between the holy [and] the common.
2Toward the face of [its] length [was] a hundred cubits, with the door [to] the north, and the width [was] fifty cubits.
