Ezekiel 41

1 Afterward he^a brought me to ^bthe temple,¹ and measured the posts, six cubits[≈ 2.7 m · 9 ft] broad on the one side, and six cubits[≈ 2.7 m · 9 ft] broad on the other side, which was the breadth of the ²tabernacle.³

2 And the breadth of the door⁴ was ten cubits[≈ 4.6 m · 15 ft];⁵ and the sides of the door were five cubits[≈ 2.3 m · 7 ft 6 in] on the one side, and five cubits[≈ 2.3 m · 7 ft 6 in] on the other side; and he measured the length thereof, ^cforty cubits[≈ 18 m · 60 ft], and the breadth, twenty cubits[≈ 9.1 m · 30 ft].

3 Then went he inward,⁶ and measured the post of the door two cubits[≈ 91 cm · 3 ft], and the door six cubits[≈ 2.7 m · 9 ft], and the breadth of the door seven cubits[≈ 3.2 m · 10 ft].⁷

4 So he measured the length thereof, twenty cubits[≈ 9.1 m · 30 ft], and the breadth ^dtwenty cubits[≈ 9.1 m · 30 ft], before the temple; and he said unto me, This is the most holy place.

5 After he measured the ^ewall of the house six cubits[≈ 2.7 m · 9 ft]; and the breadth of every ^gside-chamber four cubits[≈ 1.8 m · 6 ft], round about the house on every side.

6 And the side-chambers⁸ were three, one over another,⁹ and thirty in order;¹ and they entered^h into the wall which was of the house for the side-chambers round about, that they might have hold,² but they had not hold in the wall³ of the house.

7 And ⁴there was an enlarging and a winding⁵ about still upward to the side-chambers; for the winding about of the house went still upward round about the house: therefore the breadth of the house was still upward, and so ⁱincreased⁶ from the lowest chamber to the highest by the midst.

8 I saw also the height of the house round about: the ^jfoundations of the side-chambers were a ^kfull reed of six great cubits.⁷

9 The thickness of the wall, which was for the side-chamber⁸ without, was five cubits[≈ 2.3 m · 7 ft 6 in];⁹ and that which was left was the place of the side-chambers that were within.

10 And between the ¹chambers² was the wideness of twenty cubits[≈ 9.1 m · 30 ft] round about the house on every side.

11 And the doors of the side-chambers were toward^l the place that was left, ⁿone door toward the north, and another door toward the south: and the breadth of the place that was left was five cubits[≈ 2.3 m · 7 ft 6 in] round about.

12 Now the building that was before the separate^o place, at the end toward the west, was seventy cubits[≈ 32 m · 100 ft] broad; and the wall of the building was five cubits[≈ 2.3 m · 7 ft 6 in] thick round about, and the length thereof ninety cubits[≈ 41 m · 130 ft].

13 So he measured the house, an hundred cubits[≈ 46 m · 150 ft] long;³ and the separate place, and the building, with the walls thereof, an hundred cubits[≈ 46 m · 150 ft] long;

14 Also the breadth of the face of the house, and of the separate place⁴ toward the east, an hundred cubits[≈ 46 m · 150 ft].

15 And he measured the length of the building over against the separate place which was behind it, and the galleries⁵ thereof on the one side, and on the other side, an hundred cubits[≈ 46 m · 150 ft],⁶ with ^pthe inner temple, and the porches of the court;

16 The door-posts, and the ^qnarrow windows, and the galleries round about on their three stories, over against⁷ the door, ceiled with ⁸wood round about, and from the ground up to the windows,⁹ and the windows were covered;¹

17 To that above the door,² even unto the inner house and without, and by all the wall round about, within and without, by ³measure.

18 And it was made with ^rcherubims and palm-trees, so that a palm-tree was between a cherub and a cherub; and every cherub had ^stwo faces:

19 So that the face of a man ^twas toward the palm-tree on the one side, and the face of a young lion toward the palm-tree on the other side: it was made through all the house round about.

20 From^u the ground unto above the door were cherubims and palm-trees made, and on the wall of the temple.

21 The posts⁴ of the temple were squared, and the face of the sanctuary; the appearance of the one as the appearance of the other.

22 The^v altar of wood⁵ was three cubits[≈ 1.4 m · 4 ft 6 in] high, and the length thereof two cubits[≈ 91 cm · 3 ft]; and the corners thereof, and the length thereof, and the walls thereof, were of wood: and he said unto me, This is ^xthe table that is ^ybefore the LORD.

23 And the temple and the sanctuary had two doors.⁶

24 And the doors had ^ztwo leaves apiece, two turning leaves; two leaves for the one door, and two leaves for the other door.

25 And^a there were made on them, on the ^bdoors of the temple, cherubims and palm-trees, like as were made upon the ^cwalls, and there were thick planks upon the face of the porch without.

26 And^d there were narrow windows and palm-trees on the one side and on the other side, on the sides of the porch, and upon the side-chambers of the house, and thick planks.
