Ezekiel 40:16-36

16There were shuttered windows toward the chambers and toward their pillars within the surrounding gate, and likewise the porches had windows all around inside. On each pillar were palm trees.

17Then he brought me to the outer court. Behold, there were rooms and pavement, made for the surrounding court, with 30 rooms along the pavement.

18The pavement was by the side of the gates, as wide as the gates were long. This was the lower pavement.

19He measured the width from the front of the lower gate to the exterior front of the inner court—it was 100 cubits, to the east and to the north.

20Next he measured the length and width of the gate of the outer court facing toward the north.

21Its guard chambers were three on this side and three on that side. Its pillars and its porches had the same measurements as the first gate—50 cubits long and 25 cubits wide.

22Its windows, porches and palm trees were the same measurements as the gate facing toward the east. Its stairway had seven steps, and its porch was in front of them.

23A gate to the inner court was opposite the other gate, northward and eastward. He measured 100 cubits from gate to gate.

24Then he led me toward the south, and behold, there was a gate toward the south. He measured its pillars and its porches. They had the same measurements.

25The gate and its porch had windows all around, like the other windows, 50 cubits long and 25 cubits wide.

26Its stairway had seven steps, and its porches were in front of them. It had palm-trees on its pillars, one on this side and another on that side.

27There was a gate to the inner court toward the south. He measured from gate to gate toward the south—100 cubits.

28Then he brought me to the inner court through the south gate. When he measured the south gate, it had the same measurements.

29Its chambers, pillars and porch had the same measurements. There were windows in it and in the surrounding porch. It was 50 cubits long and 25 cubits wide.

30There were porches all around, 25 cubits long and five cubits wide.

31Its porch was toward the outer court. Palm-trees were on its pillars. Its stairway had eight steps.

32Then he brought me into the inner court toward the east. He measured it with the same measurements.

33Its chambers, pillars and porch had the same measurements. There were windows in it and in its surrounding porch. It was 50 cubits long and 25 cubits wide.

34Its porch was toward the outer court. Palm trees were on its pillars on this side and on that side. Its stairway had eight steps.

35He brought me to the north gate. He measured it with the same measurements:

36its chambers, pillars and porch. There were windows in it all around. It was 50 cubits long and 25 cubits wide.
