38A 1chamberH3957 with its doorwayH6607 was by the sideH352 pillarsH352 at the gatesH8179; thereH8033 they 2rinseH1740 the burntH5930 offeringH5930. 39In the porchH197 of the gateH8179 were twoH8147 3tablesH7979 on eachH6311 sideH6311, on which to slaughterH7819 the 4burntH5930 offeringH5930, the sinH2403 offeringH2403 and the guiltH817 offeringH817. 40On the outerH2351 5sideH3802, 6as one wentH5927 up to the 7gatewayH6607H8179 toward the northH6828, were twoH8147 tablesH7979; and on the otherH312 8sideH3802 of the porchH197 of the gateH8179 were twoH8147 tablesH7979. 41FourH702 9tablesH7979 were on eachH6311 sideH6311 10nextH3802 to the gateH8179; or, eightH8083 tablesH7979 on which they slaughterH7819 sacrifices. 42For the burntH5930 offeringH5930 there were fourH702 11tablesH7979 of 12hewnH1496 stoneH68, a cubitH520 and a halfH2677 longH753, a cubitH520 and a halfH2677 wideH7341 and oneH259 cubitH520 highH1363, on which they layH5117 the instrumentsH3627 with whichH834 they slaughterH7819 the 13burntH5930 offeringH5930 and the sacrificeH2077. 43The doubleH8240 14hooksH8240, oneH259 handbreadthH2948 in length, were installedH3559 15in the houseH1004 allH5439 aroundH5439; and on the tablesH7979 was the fleshH1320 of the offeringH7133.
44From the outsideH2351 to the 16innerH6442 gateH8179 were 1718chambersH3957 for the 19singersH7891 in the innerH6442 courtH2691, one of whichH834 was at the 20sideH3802 of the northH6828 gateH8179, with 21its frontH6440 towardH1870 the southH1864, and oneH259 at the 22sideH3802 of the 23south gateH8179 facingH6440 towardH1870 the northH6828. 45He saidH1696 to me, “ThisH2090 is the 24chamberH3957 whichH834 facesH6440 towardH1870 the southH1864, intended for the priestsH3548 who 25keepH8104 chargeH4931 of the 26templeH1004; 46but the 27chamberH3957 whichH834 facesH6440 towardH1870 the northH6828 is for the priestsH3548 who 28keepH8104 chargeH4931 of the altarH4196.
