Ezekiel 41:1-11

1Then he 1broughtH935 me to the 23naveH1964 and measuredH4058 the 4sideH352 pillarsH352; sixH8337 cubitsH520 wideH7341 on eachH6311 sideH6311 was the widthH7341 of the 5sideH168 pillarH168. 2The widthH7341 of the entranceH6607 was tenH6235 cubitsH520 and the 6sidesH3802 of the entranceH6607 were fiveH2568 cubitsH520 on eachH6311 sideH6311. And he measuredH4058 7the lengthH753 of the nave, 8fortyH705 cubitsH520, and the widthH7341, 9twentyH6242 cubitsH520. 3Then he wentH935 1011insideH6441 and measuredH4058 each 12sideH352 pillarH352 of the doorwayH6607, twoH8147 cubitsH520, and the doorwayH6607, sixH8337 cubitsH520 high; and the widthH7341 of the doorwayH6607, sevenH7651 cubitsH520. 4He measuredH4058 its lengthH753, 13twentyH6242 cubitsH520, and the widthH7341, twentyH6242 cubitsH520, beforeH413H6440 the 14naveH1964; and he saidH559 to me, “ThisH2088 is the 15mostH6944 holyH6944 place.”

5Then he measuredH4058 the wallH7023 of the 16templeH1004, sixH8337 cubitsH520; and the widthH7341 of the 17sideH6763 chambersH6763, fourH702 cubitsH520, allH5439 aroundH5439 aboutH5439 the houseH1004 on everyH5439 sideH5439. 618The sideH6763 chambersH6763 were in threeH7969 stories, 19oneH6763 aboveH413 anotherH6763, and 20thirtyH7970 in eachH6471 storyH6471; and 21the side chambersH6763 22extendedH935 to the wallH7023 whichH834 stood on 23their inwardH1004 sideH6763 allH5439 aroundH5439, that they might be fastenedH270, and not be fastenedH270 into the wallH7023 of the templeH1004 itself. 7The sideH6763 chambersH6763 surroundingH5437 the temple were widerH7337 at each successiveH4605 storyH4605. BecauseH3588 the 24structure surroundingH4141 the templeH1004 went upwardH4605 by stagesH4605 on allH5439 sidesH5439 of the templeH1004, thereforeH5921H3651 the widthH7341 of the templeH1004 increased as it went higherH4605; and thusH3651 one wentH5927 up from the lowestH8481 story to the highestH5945 by way of the 25secondH8484 story. 8I sawH7200 also that the houseH1004 had a raisedH1363 26platformH1363 allH5439 aroundH5439; the foundationsH4145 of the sideH6763 chambersH6763 were a fullH4393 rodH7070 of 27sixH8337 28longH679 cubitsH520 in height. 9The 29thicknessH7341 of the outerH2351 wallH7023 of the sideH6763 chambersH6763 was fiveH2568 cubitsH520. But the 30freeH5117 spaceH5117 betweenH1007 the sideH6763 chambersH6763 belonging to the templeH1004 10and the outer 31chambersH3957 was twentyH6242 cubitsH520 in widthH7341 allH5439 aroundH5439 the templeH1004 on everyH5439 sideH5439. 11The 32doorwaysH6607 of the 33sideH6763 chambersH6763 toward the 34freeH5117 spaceH5117 consisted of oneH259 doorwayH6607 towardH1870 the northH6828 and anotherH259 doorwayH6607 toward the southH1864; and the widthH7341 of the 35freeH5117 spaceH5117H4725 was fiveH2568 cubitsH520 allH5439 aroundH5439.
