Ezequiel 40
Lutherbibel 1912
1Im fünfundzwanzigsten Jahr unserer Gefangenschaft, im Anfang des Jahres, am zehnten Tage des Monats, im vierzehnten Jahr, nachdem die Stadt geschlagen war, eben an diesem Tage kam des HERRN Hand über mich und führte mich dahin.
2Durch göttliche Gesichte führte er mich ins Land Israel und stellte mich auf einen hohen Berg, darauf war's wie eine gebaute Stadt gegen Mittag.
3Und da er mich hingebracht hatte, siehe, da war ein Mann, des Ansehen war wie Erz; der hatte eine lange leinene Schnur und eine Meßrute in seiner Hand und stand unter dem Tor.
4Und er sprach zu mir: Du Menschenkind, siehe und höre fleißig zu und merke auf alles, was ich dir zeigen will. Denn darum bist du hergebracht, daß ich dir solches zeige, auf daß du solches alles, was du hier siehst, verkündigst dem Hause Israel.
5Und siehe, es ging eine Mauer auswendig um das Haus ringsumher. Und der Mann hatte die Meßrute in der Hand, die war sechs Ellen lang; eine jegliche Elle war eine Handbreit länger denn eine gemeine Elle. Und er maß das Gebäude in die Breite eine Rute und in die Höhe auch eine Rute.
6Und er ging ein zum Tor, das gegen Morgen lag, und ging hinauf auf seinen Stufen und maß die Schwelle, eine Rute breit.
7Und die Gemächer, so beiderseits neben dem Tor waren, maß er auch nach der Länge eine Rute und nach der Breite eine Rute; und der Raum zwischen den Gemächern war fünf Ellen weit. Und er maß auch die Schwelle am Tor neben der Halle, die nach dem Hause zu war, eine Rute.
8Und er maß die Halle am Tor, die nach dem Hause zu war, eine Rute.
9Und maß die Halle am Tor acht Ellen und ihre Pfeiler zwei Ellen, und die Halle am Tor war nach dem Hause zu.
10Und der Gemächer waren auf jeglicher Seite drei am Tor gegen Morgen, je eins so weit wie das andere, und die Pfeiler auf beiden Seiten waren gleich groß.
11Darnach maß er die Weite der Tür im Tor zehn Ellen und die Länge des Tors dreizehn Ellen.
12Und vorn an den Gemächern war Raum abgegrenzt auf beiden Seiten, je eine Elle; aber die Gemächer waren je sechs Ellen auf beiden Seiten.
13Dazu maß er das Tor vom Dach der Gemächer auf der einen Seite bis zum Dach der Gemächer auf der andern Seite fünfundzwanzig Ellen breit; und eine Tür stand gegenüber der andern.
14Und er machte die Pfeiler sechzig Ellen, und an den Pfeilern war der Vorhof, am Tor ringsherum.
15Und vom Tor, da man hineingeht, bis außen an die Halle an der innern Seite des Tors waren fünfzig Ellen.
16Und es waren enge Fensterlein an den Gemächern und an den Pfeilern hineinwärts am Tor ringsumher. Also waren auch Fenster inwendig an der Halle herum, und an den Pfeilern war Palmlaubwerk.
17Und er führte mich weiter zum äußern Vorhof, und siehe, da waren Kammern und ein Pflaster gemacht am Vorhofe herum; dreißig Kammern waren auf dem Pflaster.
18Und es war das Pflaster zur Seite der Tore, solang die Tore waren, nämlich das untere Pflaster.
19Und er maß die Breite von dem untern Tor an bis vor den innern Hof auswendig hundert Ellen, gegen Morgen und gegen Mitternacht.
20Er maß auch das Tor, so gegen Mitternacht lag, am äußern Vorhof, nach der Länge und Breite.
21Das hatte auch auf jeder Seite drei Gemächer und hatte auch seine Pfeiler und Halle, gleich so groß wie am vorigen Tor, fünfzig Ellen die Länge und fünfundzwanzig Ellen die Breite.
22Und hatte auch seine Fenster und seine Halle und sein Palmlaubwerk, gleich wie das Tor gegen Morgen; und hatte seine Halle davor.
23Und es waren Tore am innern Vorhof gegenüber den Toren, so gegen Mitternacht und Morgen standen; und er maß hundert Ellen von einem Tor zum andern.
24Darnach führte er mich gegen Mittag, und siehe, da war auch ein Tor gegen Mittag; und er maß seine Pfeiler und Halle gleich wie die andern.
25Und es waren auch Fenster an ihm und an seiner Halle umher, gleich wie jene Fenster; und es war fünfzig Ellen lang und fünfundzwanzig Ellen breit.
26Und waren auch sieben Stufen hinauf und eine Halle davor und Palmlaubwerk an ihren Pfeilern auf jeglicher Seite.
27Und es war auch ein Tor am innern Vorhof gegen Mittag, und er maß hundert Ellen von dem einen Mittagstor zum andern.
28Und er führte mich weiter durchs Mittagstor in den innern Vorhof und maß dasselbe Tor gleich so groß wie die andern,
29mit seinen Gemächern, Pfeilern und Halle und mit Fenstern an ihm und an seiner Halle, ebenso groß wie jene, ringsumher; und es waren fünfzig Ellen lang und fünfundzwanzig Ellen breit.
30Und es ging eine Halle herum, fünfundzwanzig Ellen lang und fünf Ellen breit.
31Und die Halle, so gegen den äußeren Vorhof stand, hatte auch Palmlaubwerk an den Pfeilern; es waren aber acht Stufen hinaufzugehen.
32Darnach führte er mich zum innern Vorhof gegen Morgen und maß das Tor gleich so groß wie die andern,
33mit seinen Gemächern, Pfeilern und Halle, gleich so groß wie die andern, und mit Fenstern an ihm und an seiner Halle ringsumher; und es war fünfzig Ellen lang und fünfundzwanzig Ellen breit.
34Und seine Halle stand auch gegen den äußern Vorhof und Palmlaubwerk an ihren Pfeilern zu beiden Seiten und acht Stufen hinauf.
35Darnach führte er mich zum Tor gegen Mitternacht; das maß er gleich so groß wie die andern,
36mit seinen Gemächern, Pfeilern und Halle und ihren Fenstern ringsumher, fünfzig Ellen lang und fünfundzwanzig Ellen breit.
37Und seine Halle stand auch gegen den äußern Vorhof und Palmlaubwerk an den Pfeilern zu beiden Seiten und acht Stufen hinauf.
38Und unten an den Pfeilern an jedem Tor war eine Kammer mit einer Tür, darin man das Brandopfer wusch.
39Aber in der Halle des Tors standen auf jeglicher Seite zwei Tische, darauf man die Brandopfer, Sündopfer und Schuldopfer schlachten sollte.
40Und herauswärts zur Seite, da man hinaufgeht zum Tor gegen Mitternacht, standen auch zwei Tische und an der andern Seite unter der Halle des Tors auch zwei Tische.
41Also standen auf jeder Seite des Tors vier Tische; das sind zusammen acht Tische, darauf man schlachtete.
42Und noch vier Tische, zum Brandopfer gemacht, die waren aus gehauenen Steinen, je anderthalb Ellen lang und breit und eine Elle hoch, darauf man legte allerlei Geräte, womit man Brandopfer und andere Opfer schlachtete.
43Und es gingen Leisten herum, hineinwärts gebogen, eine quere Hand hoch. Und auf die Tische sollte man das Opferfleisch legen.
44Und außen vor dem innern Tor waren zwei Kammern im innern Vorhofe: eine an der Seite neben dem Tor zur Mitternacht, die sah gegen Mittag; die andere zur Seite des Tors gegen Mittag, die sah gegen Mitternacht.
45Und er sprach zu mir: Die Kammer gegen Mittag gehört den Priestern, die im Hause dienen sollen;
46aber die Kammer gegen Mitternacht gehört den Priestern, die auf dem Altar dienen. Dies sind die Kinder Zadok, welche allein unter den Kindern Levi vor den HERRN treten sollen, ihm zu dienen.
47Und er maß den Vorhof, nämlich hundert Ellen lang und hundert Ellen breit ins Gevierte; und der Altar stand vorn vor dem Tempel.
48Und er führte mich hinein zur Halle des Tempels und maß die Pfeiler der Halle fünf Ellen auf jeder Seite und das Tor vierzehn Ellen, und die Wände zu beiden Seiten an der Tür drei Ellen auf jeder Seite.
49Aber die Halle war zwanzig Ellen lang und elf Ellen weit und hatte Stufen, da man hinaufging; und Säulen standen an den Pfeilern, auf jeder Seite eine.
Reina-Valera 1909
1EN el año veinticinco de nuestro cautiverio, al principio del año, á los diez del mes, á los catorce años después que la ciudad fué herida, en aquel mismo día fué sobre mí la mano de Jehová, y llevóme allá.
2En visiones de Dios me llevó á la tierra de Israel, y púsome sobre un monte muy alto, sobre el cual había como edificio de una ciudad al mediodía.
3Y llevóme allí, y he aquí un varón, cuyo aspecto era como aspecto de metal, y tenía un cordel de lino en su mano, y una caña de medir: y él estaba á la puerta.
4Y hablóme aquel varón, diciendo: Hijo del hombre, mira con tus ojos, y oye con tus oídos, y pon tu corazón á todas las cosas que te muestro; porque para que yo te las mostrase eres traído aquí. Cuenta todo lo que ves á la casa de Israel.
5Y he aquí, un muro fuera de la casa: y la caña de medir que aquel varón tenía en la mano, era de seis codos, de á codo y palmo: y midió la anchura del edificio de una caña, y la altura, de otra caña.
6Después vino á la puerta que daba cara hacia el oriente, y subió por sus gradas, y midió el un poste de la puerta, de una caña en anchura, y el otro poste de otra caña en ancho.
7Y cada cámara tenía una caña de largo, y una caña de ancho; y entre las cámaras había cinco codos en ancho; y cada poste de la puerta junto á la entrada de la puerta por dentro, una caña.
8Midió asimismo la entrada de la puerta por de dentro, una caña.
9Midió luego la entrada del portal, de ocho codos, y sus postes de dos codos; y la puerta del portal estaba por de dentro.
10Y la puerta de hacia el oriente tenía tres cámaras de cada parte, todas tres de una medida: también de una medida los portales de cada parte.
11Y midió la anchura de la entrada de la puerta, de diez codos; la longitud del portal de trece codos.
12Y el espacio de delante de las cámaras, de un codo de la una parte, y de otro codo de la otra; y cada cámara tenía seis codos de una parte, y seis codos de otra.
13Y midió la puerta desde el techo de la una cámara hasta el techo de la otra, veinticinco codos de anchura, puerta contra puerta.
14E hizo los postes de sesenta codos, cada poste del atrio y del portal por todo alrededor.
15Y desde la delantera de la puerta de la entrada hasta la delantera de la entrada de la puerta de dentro, cincuenta codos.
16Y había ventanas estrechas en las cámaras, y en sus portales por de dentro de la puerta alrededor, y asimismo en los corredores; y las ventanas estaban alrededor por de dentro; y en cada poste había palmas.
17Llevóme luego al atrio exterior, y he aquí, había cámaras, y solado hecho al atrio en derredor: treinta cámaras había alrededor en aquel atrio.
18Y el solado al lado de las puertas, en proporción á la longitud de los portales, era el solado más bajo.
19Y midió la anchura desde la delantera de la puerta de abajo hasta la delantera del atrio interior por de fuera, de cien codos hacia el oriente y el norte.
20Y de la puerta que estaba hacia el norte en el atrio exterior, midió su longitud y su anchura.
21Y sus cámaras eran tres de una parte, y tres de otra; y sus postes y sus arcos eran como la medida de la puerta primera: cincuenta codos su longitud, y veinticinco su anchura.
22Y sus ventanas, y sus arcos, y sus palmas, eran conforme á la medida de la puerta que estaba hacia el oriente; y subían á ella por siete gradas; y delante de ellas estaban sus arcos.
23Y la puerta del atrio interior estaba enfrente de la puerta al norte; y así al oriente: y midió de puerta á puerta cien codos.
24Llevóme después hacia el mediodía, y he aquí una puerta hacia el mediodía: y midió sus portales y sus arcos conforme á estas medidas.
25Y tenía sus ventanas y sus arcos alrededor, como las ventanas: la longitud era de cincuenta codos, y la anchura de veinticinco codos.
26Y sus gradas eran de siete peldaños, con sus arcos delante de ellas; y tenía palmas, una de una parte, y otra de la otra, en sus postes.
27Y había puerta de hacia el mediodía del atrio interior: y midió de puerta á puerta hacia el mediodía cien codos.
28Metióme después en el atrio de adentro á la puerta del mediodía, y midió la puerta del mediodía conforme á estas medidas.
29Y sus cámaras, y sus postes, y sus arcos, eran conforme á estas medidas; y tenía sus ventanas y sus arcos alrededor: la longitud era de cincuenta codos, y de veinticinco codos la anchura.
30Y los arcos alrededor eran de veinticinco codos de largo, y cinco codos de ancho.
31Y sus arcos caían afuera al atrio, con palmas en sus postes; y sus gradas eran de ocho escalones.
32Y llevóme al atrio interior hacia el oriente, y midió la puerta conforme á estas medidas.
33Y eran sus cámaras, y sus postes, y sus arcos, conforme á estas medidas: y tenía sus ventanas y sus arcos alrededor: la longitud era de cincuenta codos, y la anchura de veinticinco codos.
34Y sus arcos caían afuera al atrio, con palmas en sus postes de una parte y otra: y sus gradas eran de ocho escalones.
35Llevóme luego á la puerta del norte, y midió conforme á estas medidas:
36Sus cámaras, y sus postes, y sus arcos, y sus ventanas alrededor: la longitud era de cincuenta codos, y de veinticinco codos el ancho.
37Y sus postes caían fuera al atrio, con palmas á cada uno de sus postes de una parte y otra: y sus gradas eran de ocho peldaños.
38Y había allí una cámara, y su puerta con postes de portales; allí lavarán el holocausto.
39Y en la entrada de la puerta había dos mesas de la una parte, y otras dos de la otra, para degollar sobre ellas el holocausto, y la expiación, y el sacrificio por el pecado.
40Y al lado por de fuera de las gradas, á la entrada de la puerta del norte, había dos mesas; y al otro lado que estaba á la entrada de la puerta, dos mesas.
41Cuatro mesas de la una parte, y cuatro mesas de la otra parte al lado de la puerta; ocho mesas, sobre las cuales degollarán.
42Y las cuatro mesas para el holocausto eran de piedras labradas, de un codo y medio de longitud, y codo y medio de ancho, y de altura de un codo: sobre éstas pondrán las herramientas con que degollarán el holocausto y el sacrificio.
43Y dentro, ganchos de un palmo, dispuestos por todo alrededor; y sobre las mesas la carne de la ofrenda.
44Y fuera de la puerta interior, en el atrio de adentro que estaba al lado de la puerta del norte, estaban las cámaras de los cantores, las cuales miraban hacia el mediodía: una estaba al lado de la puerta del oriente que miraba hacia el norte.
45Y díjome: Esta cámara que mira hacia el mediodía es de los sacerdotes que tienen la guarda del templo.
46Y la cámara que mira hacia el norte es de los sacerdotes que tienen la guarda del altar: estos son los hijos de Sadoc, los cuales son llamados de los hijos de Leví al Señor, para ministrarle.
47Y midió el atrio, cien codos de longitud, y la anchura de cien codos cuadrados; y el altar estaba delante de la casa.
48Y llevóme al pórtico del templo, y midió cada poste del pórtico, cinco codos de una parte, y cinco codos de otra; y la anchura de la puerta tres codos de una parte, y tres codos de otra.
49La longitud del pórtico veinte codos, y la anchura once codos, al cual subían por gradas: y había columnas junto á los postes, una de un lado, y otra de otro.
King James Version
1In the five and twentieth year of our captivity, in the beginning of the year, in the tenth day of the month, in the fourteenth year after that the city was smitten, in the selfsame day the hand of the LORD was upon me, and brought me thither.
2In the visions of God brought he me into the land of Israel, and set me upon a very high mountain, by which was as the frame of a city on the south.
3And he brought me thither, and, behold, there was a man, whose appearance was like the appearance of brass, with a line of flax in his hand, and a measuring reed; and he stood in the gate.
4And the man said unto me, Son of man, behold with thine eyes, and hear with thine ears, and set thine heart upon all that I shall shew thee; for to the intent that I might shew them unto thee art thou brought hither: declare all that thou seest to the house of Israel.
5And behold a wall on the outside of the house round about, and in the man’s hand a measuring reed of six cubits long by the cubit and an hand breadth: so he measured the breadth of the building, one reed; and the height, one reed.
6Then came he unto the gate which looketh toward the east, and went up the stairs thereof, and measured the threshold of the gate, which was one reed broad; and the other threshold of the gate, which was one reed broad.
7And every little chamber was one reed long, and one reed broad; and between the little chambers were five cubits; and the threshold of the gate by the porch of the gate within was one reed.
8He measured also the porch of the gate within, one reed.
9Then measured he the porch of the gate, eight cubits; and the posts thereof, two cubits; and the porch of the gate was inward.
10And the little chambers of the gate eastward were three on this side, and three on that side; they three were of one measure: and the posts had one measure on this side and on that side.
11And he measured the breadth of the entry of the gate, ten cubits; and the length of the gate, thirteen cubits.
12The space also before the little chambers was one cubit on this side, and the space was one cubit on that side: and the little chambers were six cubits on this side, and six cubits on that side.
13He measured then the gate from the roof of one little chamber to the roof of another: the breadth was five and twenty cubits, door against door.
14He made also posts of threescore cubits, even unto the post of the court round about the gate.
15And from the face of the gate of the entrance unto the face of the porch of the inner gate were fifty cubits.
16And there were narrow windows to the little chambers, and to their posts within the gate round about, and likewise to the arches: and windows were round about inward: and upon each post were palm trees.
17Then brought he me into the outward court, and, lo, there were chambers, and a pavement made for the court round about: thirty chambers were upon the pavement.
18And the pavement by the side of the gates over against the length of the gates was the lower pavement.
19Then he measured the breadth from the forefront of the lower gate unto the forefront of the inner court without, an hundred cubits eastward and northward.
20And the gate of the outward court that looked toward the north, he measured the length thereof, and the breadth thereof.
21And the little chambers thereof were three on this side and three on that side; and the posts thereof and the arches thereof were after the measure of the first gate: the length thereof was fifty cubits, and the breadth five and twenty cubits.
22And their windows, and their arches, and their palm trees, were after the measure of the gate that looketh toward the east; and they went up unto it by seven steps; and the arches thereof were before them.
23And the gate of the inner court was over against the gate toward the north, and toward the east; and he measured from gate to gate an hundred cubits.
24After that he brought me toward the south, and behold a gate toward the south: and he measured the posts thereof and the arches thereof according to these measures.
25And there were windows in it and in the arches thereof round about, like those windows: the length was fifty cubits, and the breadth five and twenty cubits.
26And there were seven steps to go up to it, and the arches thereof were before them: and it had palm trees, one on this side, and another on that side, upon the posts thereof.
27And there was a gate in the inner court toward the south: and he measured from gate to gate toward the south an hundred cubits.
28And he brought me to the inner court by the south gate: and he measured the south gate according to these measures;
29And the little chambers thereof, and the posts thereof, and the arches thereof, according to these measures: and there were windows in it and in the arches thereof round about: it was fifty cubits long, and five and twenty cubits broad.
30And the arches round about were five and twenty cubits long, and five cubits broad.
31And the arches thereof were toward the utter court; and palm trees were upon the posts thereof: and the going up to it had eight steps.
32And he brought me into the inner court toward the east: and he measured the gate according to these measures.
33And the little chambers thereof, and the posts thereof, and the arches thereof, were according to these measures: and there were windows therein and in the arches thereof round about: it was fifty cubits long, and five and twenty cubits broad.
34And the arches thereof were toward the outward court; and palm trees were upon the posts thereof, on this side, and on that side: and the going up to it had eight steps.
35And he brought me to the north gate, and measured it according to these measures;
36The little chambers thereof, the posts thereof, and the arches thereof, and the windows to it round about: the length was fifty cubits, and the breadth five and twenty cubits.
37And the posts thereof were toward the utter court; and palm trees were upon the posts thereof, on this side, and on that side: and the going up to it had eight steps.
38And the chambers and the entries thereof were by the posts of the gates, where they washed the burnt offering.
39And in the porch of the gate were two tables on this side, and two tables on that side, to slay thereon the burnt offering and the sin offering and the trespass offering.
40And at the side without, as one goeth up to the entry of the north gate, were two tables; and on the other side, which was at the porch of the gate, were two tables.
41Four tables were on this side, and four tables on that side, by the side of the gate; eight tables, whereupon they slew their sacrifices.
42And the four tables were of hewn stone for the burnt offering, of a cubit and an half long, and a cubit and an half broad, and one cubit high: whereupon also they laid the instruments wherewith they slew the burnt offering and the sacrifice.
43And within were hooks, an hand broad, fastened round about: and upon the tables was the flesh of the offering.
44And without the inner gate were the chambers of the singers in the inner court, which was at the side of the north gate; and their prospect was toward the south: one at the side of the east gate having the prospect toward the north.
45And he said unto me, This chamber, whose prospect is toward the south, is for the priests, the keepers of the charge of the house.
46And the chamber whose prospect is toward the north is for the priests, the keepers of the charge of the altar: these are the sons of Zadok among the sons of Levi, which come near to the LORD to minister unto him.
47So he measured the court, an hundred cubits long, and an hundred cubits broad, foursquare; and the altar that was before the house.
48And he brought me to the porch of the house, and measured each post of the porch, five cubits on this side, and five cubits on that side: and the breadth of the gate was three cubits on this side, and three cubits on that side.
49The length of the porch was twenty cubits, and the breadth eleven cubits; and he brought me by the steps whereby they went up to it: and there were pillars by the posts, one on this side, and another on that side.
World English Bible
1In the twenty-fifth year of our captivity, in the beginning of the year, in the tenth day of the month, in the fourteenth year after the city was struck, in the same day, the LORD’s hand was on me, and he brought me there.
2In the visions of God he brought me into the land of Israel, and set me down on a very high mountain, on which was something like the frame of a city to the south.
3He brought me there; and, behold, there was a man whose appearance was like the appearance of bronze, with a line of flax in his hand and a measuring reed; and he stood in the gate.
4The man said to me, “Son of man, see with your eyes, and hear with your ears, and set your heart on all that I will show you; for you have been brought here so that I may show them to you. Declare all that you see to the house of Israel.”
5Behold, there was a wall on the outside of the house all around, and in the man’s hand a measuring reed six cubits long, of a cubit and a hand width each. So he measured the thickness of the building, one reed; and the height, one reed.
6Then he came to the gate which looks toward the east, and went up its steps. He measured the threshold of the gate, one reed wide; and the other threshold, one reed wide.
7Every lodge was one reed long and one reed wide. Between the lodges was five cubits. The threshold of the gate by the porch of the gate toward the house was one reed.
8He measured also the porch of the gate toward the house, one reed.
9Then he measured the porch of the gate, eight cubits; and its posts, two cubits; and the porch of the gate was toward the house.
10The side rooms of the gate eastward were three on this side, and three on that side. The three of them were of one measure. The posts had one measure on this side and on that side.
11He measured the width of the opening of the gate, ten cubits; and the length of the gate, thirteen cubits;
12and a border before the lodges, one cubit on this side, and a border, one cubit on that side; and the side rooms, six cubits on this side, and six cubits on that side.
13He measured the gate from the roof of the one side room to the roof of the other, a width of twenty-five cubits, door against door.
14He also made posts, sixty cubits; and the court reached to the posts, around the gate.
15From the forefront of the gate at the entrance to the forefront of the inner porch of the gate were fifty cubits.
16There were closed windows to the side rooms, and to their posts within the gate all around, and likewise to the arches. Windows were around inward. Palm trees were on each post.
17Then he brought me into the outer court. Behold, there were rooms and a pavement made for the court all around. Thirty rooms were on the pavement.
18The pavement was by the side of the gates, corresponding to the length of the gates, even the lower pavement.
19Then he measured the width from the forefront of the lower gate to the forefront of the inner court outside, one hundred cubits, both on the east and on the north.
20He measured the length and width of the gate of the outer court which faces toward the north.
21The lodges of it were three on this side and three on that side. Its posts and its arches were the same as the measure of the first gate: its length was fifty cubits, and the width twenty-five cubits.
22Its windows, its arches, and its palm trees were the same as the measure of the gate which faces toward the east. They went up to it by seven steps. Its arches were before them.
23There was a gate to the inner court facing the other gate, on the north and on the east. He measured one hundred cubits from gate to gate.
24He led me toward the south; and behold, there was a gate toward the south. He measured its posts and its arches according to these measurements.
25There were windows in it and in its arches all around, like the other windows: the length was fifty cubits, and the width twenty-five cubits.
26There were seven steps to go up to it, and its arches were before them. It had palm trees, one on this side, and another on that side, on its posts.
27There was a gate to the inner court toward the south. He measured one hundred cubits from gate to gate toward the south.
28Then he brought me to the inner court by the south gate. He measured the south gate according to these measurements;
29with its lodges, its posts, and its arches, according to these measurements. There were windows in it and in its arches all around. It was fifty cubits long, and twenty-five cubits wide.
30There were arches all around, twenty-five cubits long and five cubits wide.
31Its arches were toward the outer court. Palm trees were on its posts. The ascent to it had eight steps.
32He brought me into the inner court toward the east. He measured the gate according to these measurements;
33with its lodges, its posts, and its arches, according to these measurements. There were windows in it and in its arches all around. It was fifty cubits long, and twenty-five cubits wide.
34Its arches were toward the outer court. Palm trees were on its posts on this side and on that side. The ascent to it had eight steps.
35He brought me to the north gate, and he measured it according to these measurements—
36its lodges, its posts, and its arches. There were windows in it all around. The length was fifty cubits and the width twenty-five cubits.
37Its posts were toward the outer court. Palm trees were on its posts on this side and on that side. The ascent to it had eight steps.
38A room with its door was by the posts at the gates. They washed the burnt offering there.
39In the porch of the gate were two tables on this side and two tables on that side, on which to kill the burnt offering, the sin offering, and the trespass offering.
40On the one side outside, as one goes up to the entry of the gate toward the north, were two tables; and on the other side, which belonged to the porch of the gate, were two tables.
41Four tables were on this side, and four tables on that side, by the side of the gate: eight tables, on which they killed the sacrifices.
42There were four cut stone tables for the burnt offering, a cubit and a half long, a cubit and a half wide, and one cubit high. They laid the instruments with which they killed the burnt offering and the sacrifice on them.
43The hooks, a hand width long, were fastened within all around. The meat of the offering was on the tables.
44Outside of the inner gate were rooms for the singers in the inner court, which was at the side of the north gate. They faced toward the south. One at the side of the east gate faced toward the north.
45He said to me, “This room, which faces toward the south, is for the priests who perform the duty of the house.
46The room which faces toward the north is for the priests who perform the duty of the altar. These are the sons of Zadok, who from among the sons of Levi come near to the LORD to minister to him.”
47He measured the court, one hundred cubits long and one hundred cubits wide, square. The altar was before the house.
48Then he brought me to the porch of the house, and measured each post of the porch, five cubits on this side, and five cubits on that side. The width of the gate was three cubits on this side and three cubits on that side.
49The length of the porch was twenty cubits and the width eleven cubits, even by the steps by which they went up to it. There were pillars by the posts, one on this side, and another on that side.
