16And there were narrowH331 windowsH2474 to the little chambersH8372, and to their postsH352 withinH6441 the gateH8179 round aboutH5439, and likewise to the archesH361: and windowsH2474 were round aboutH5439 inwardH6441: and upon each postH352 were palm treesH8561.123 17Then broughtH935 he me into the outwardH2435 courtH2691, and, lo, there were chambersH3957, and a pavementH7531 madeH6213 for the courtH2691 round aboutH5439: thirtyH7970 chambersH3957 were upon the pavementH7531. 18And the pavementH7531 by the sideH3802 of the gatesH8179 over againstH5980 the lengthH753 of the gatesH8179 was the lowerH8481 pavementH7531. 19Then he measuredH4058 the breadthH7341 from the forefrontH6440 of the lowerH8481 gateH8179 unto the forefrontH6440 of the innerH6442 courtH2691 withoutH2351, an hundredH3967 cubitsH520 eastwardH6921 and northwardH6828.4
20And the gateH8179 of the outwardH2435 courtH2691 that lookedH6440 towardH1870 the northH6828, he measuredH4058 the lengthH753 thereof, and the breadthH7341 thereof.5 21And the little chambersH8372 thereof were threeH7969 on this side and threeH7969 on that side; and the postsH352 thereof and the archesH361 thereof were after the measureH4060 of the firstH7223 gateH8179: the lengthH753 thereof was fiftyH2572 cubitsH520, and the breadthH7341 fiveH2568 and twentyH6242 cubitsH520.6 22And their windowsH2474, and their archesH361, and their palm treesH8561, were after the measureH4060 of the gateH8179 that lookethH6440 towardH1870 the eastH6921; and they went upH5927 unto it by sevenH7651 stepsH4609; and the archesH361 thereof were beforeH6440 them. 23And the gateH8179 of the innerH6442 courtH2691 was over against the gateH8179 toward the northH6828, and toward the eastH6921; and he measuredH4058 from gateH8179 to gateH8179 an hundredH3967 cubitsH520.
