Ezekiel 42

1 Then brought hee me into the vtter court by the way towarde the North, and he brought me into the chamber that was ouer against the separate place, and which was before the building toward the North.

Then he brought me forth into the outer court, the way toward the north: and he brought me into the chamber that was opposite the separate place, and which was before the building toward the north.

2 Before ye length of an hundreth cubites, was the North doore, and it was fiftie cubites broad.

Before the length of an hundred cubits was the north door, and the breadth was fifty cubits.

3 Ouer against the twentie cubites which were for the inner court, and ouer against the pauement, which was for the vtter court, was chamber against chamber in three rowes.

Opposite the twenty cubits which were for the inner court, and opposite the pavement which was for the outer court, was gallery against gallery in three stories.

4 And before the chambers was a gallery of ten cubites wide, and within was a way of one cubite, and their doores towarde the North.

And before the chambers was a walk of ten cubits breadth inward, a way of one cubit; and their doors toward the north.

5 Nowe the chambers aboue were narower: for those chambers seemed to eate vp these, to wit, the lower, and those that were in the middes of the building.

Now the upper chambers were narrower: for the galleries were higher than these, than the lower, and than the middle ones of the building.

6 For they were in three rowes, but had not pillars as the pillars of the court: therefore there was a difference from them beneath and from the middlemost, euen from the ground.

For they were in three stories, but had not pillars as the pillars of the courts: therefore the upper chambers were set back more than the lower and the middle ones from the ground.

7 And the wall that was without ouer against the chambers, toward the vtter court on the forefront of the chambers, was fiftie cubites long.

And the wall that was outside by the side of the chambers, toward the outer court on the forepart of the chambers, the length of it was fifty cubits.

8 For the length of the chambers that were in the vtter court, was fiftie cubites: and loe, before the Temple were an hundreth cubites.

For the length of the chambers that were in the outer court was fifty cubits: and, lo, before the temple were an hundred cubits.

9 And vnder these chambers was the entrie, on the East side, as one goeth into them from the outward court.

And from under these chambers was the entrance on the east side, as one goeth into them from the outer court.

10 The chambers were in the thicknesse of the wall of the court towarde the East, ouer against the separate place, and ouer against the building.

The chambers were in the thickness of the wall of the court toward the east, opposite the separate place, and opposite the building.

11 And the way before them was after ye maner of the chambers, which were toward ye North, as long as they, and as broad as they: and all their entries were like, both according to their facions, and according to their doores.

And the way before them was like the appearance of the chambers which were toward the north, as long as they, and as broad as they: and all their exits were both according to their fashions, and according to their doors.

12 And according to ye doores of ye chambers that were towarde the South, was a doore in the corner of the way, euen the way directly before the wall toward the East, as one entreth.

And according to the doors of the chambers that were toward the south was a door in the head of the way, even the way directly before the wall toward the east, as one entereth into them.

13 The said he vnto me, The North chambers and ye South chambers which are before ye separate place, they be holy chambers, wherein the Priests that approch vnto ye Lord, shall eat the most holy things: there shall they lay the most holy things, and the meate offering, and the sinne offering, and the trespasse offring: for the place is holy.

Then said he to me, The north chambers and the south chambers, which are before the separate place, they are holy chambers, where the priests that approach to the LORD shall eat the most holy things: there shall they lay the most holy things, and the meat offering, and the sin offering, and the trespass offering; for the place is holy.

14 When the Priestes enter therein, they shall not go out of the holy place into the vtter court, but there they shall lay their garmentes wherein they minister: for they are holy, and shall put on other garmentes, and so shall approch to those things, which are for the people.

When the priests enter in it, then shall they not go out of the holy place into the outer court, but there they shall lay their garments in which they minister; for they are holy; and shall put on other garments, and shall approach to those things which are for the people.

15 Nowe when he had made an ende of measuring the inner house, he brought mee forth toward the gate whose prospect is towarde the East, and measured it round about.

Now when he had finished measuring the inner house, he brought me forth toward the gate whose prospect is toward the east, and measured it all around.

16 He measured the East side with the measuring rod, fiue hundreth reedes, euen with the measuring reede round about.

He measured the east side with the measuring reed, five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed on every side.

17 He measured also the Northside, fiue hundreth reedes, euen with the measuring reede rounde about.

He measured the north side, five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed on every side.

18 And he measured the South side fiue hundreth reedes with the measuring reede.

He measured the south side, five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed.

19 He turned about also to the West side, and measured fiue hundreth reedes with the measuring reede.

He turned about to the west side, and measured five hundred reeds with the measuring reed.

20 He measured it by the foure sides: it had a wall round about, fiue hundreth reedes long, and fiue hundreth broade to make a separation betweene the Sanctuarie, and the prophane place.

He measured it by the four sides: it had a wall all around, five hundred reeds long, and five hundred broad, to make a separation between the sanctuary and the common place.
