Ezekiel 40:5-12

5And beholdH2009, there was a 1wallH2346 on the outsideH2351 of the 2templeH1004 allH5439 aroundH5439, and in the man’sH376 handH3027 was a measuringH4060 rodH7070 of sixH8337 3cubitsH520, 4each of which was a 5cubitH520 and a handH2948 widthH2948. So he measuredH4058 the thicknessH7341 of the 6wallH2346, oneH259 rodH7070; and the heightH6967, oneH259 rodH7070.

6Then he wentH935 to the gateH8179 whichH834 facedH6440H1870 7eastH6921, wentH5927 upH5927 its stepsH4609, and measuredH4058 the thresholdH5592 of the gateH8179, oneH259 rodH7070 8in widthH7341; and the otherH259 thresholdH5592 was oneH259 rodH7070 9in widthH7341.

7The 10guardroomH8372 was oneH259 rodH7070 longH753 and oneH259 rodH7070 wideH7341; and there were fiveH2568 cubitsH520 betweenH996 the guardroomsH8372. And the thresholdH5592 of the gateH8179 by the porchH197 of the gateH8179 11facingH4480 inwardH1004 was oneH259 rodH7070.

8Then he measuredH4058 the porchH197 of the gateH8179 12facingH4480 inwardH1004, oneH259 rodH7070.

9And he measuredH4058 the porchH197 of the gateH8179, eightH8083 cubitsH520; and its sideH352 pillarsH352, twoH8147 cubitsH520. And the porchH197 of the gateH8179 was 13facedH1004 inwardH1004.

10The guardroomsH8372 of the gateH8179 towardH1870 the eastH6921 numbered threeH7969 on eachH6311 sideH6311; the threeH7969 of them had the sameH259 measurementH4060. The sideH352 pillarsH352 also had the sameH259 measurementH4060 on eachH6311 sideH6311.

11And he measuredH4058 the widthH7341 of the 14gatewayH6607H8179, tenH6235 cubitsH520, and the lengthH753 of the gateH8179, thirteenH7969H6240 cubitsH520.

12There was a 15barrierH1366 wall oneH259 cubitH520 wide in frontH6440 of the guardroomsH8372 on eachH6311 sideH6311; and the guardroomsH8372 were sixH8337 cubitsH520 square on eachH6311 sideH6311.
