15The one who spoke with me had a 1gold measuring 2rod to measure the city, and its 3gates and its wall.
16The city is laid out as a square, and its length is as great as the width; and he measured the city with the 4rod, 5fifteen hundred miles; its length and width and height are equal.
17And he measured its wall, 6seventy-two yards, according to 7human 8measurements, which are also 9angelic measurements.
