< Ezekiel 41 >

1 Then he took me unto the temple, —and measured the projection six cubits broad on this side and six cubits broad on that side, the breadth of the tent.
And he brings me into the temple, and he measures the posts, six cubits the breadth on this side and six cubits the breadth on that side—the breadth of the tent.
2 And the breadth of the entrance was ten cubits and the sides of the entrance were five cubits on this side and five cubits on that side —and he measured the length thereof, forty cubits, and the breadth, twenty cubits.
And the breadth of the opening [is] ten cubits; and the sides of the opening [are] five cubits on this side and five cubits on that side; and he measures its length—forty cubits, and the breadth—twenty cubits.
3 Then went he inwards, and measured the projection of the entrance, two cubits, —and the entrance itself was six cubits, and the sides of the entrance seven cubits:
And he has gone inward, and measures the post of the opening—two cubits, and the opening—six cubits, and the breadth of the opening—seven cubits.
4 so he measured the length thereof twenty cubits, and the breadth twenty cubits, at the front of the temple.
And he measures its length—twenty cubits, and the breadth—twenty cubits, to the front of the temple, and he says to me, “This [is] the Holy of Holies.”
5 Then said he unto me This! is the holy of holies. Then measured he the wall of the house six cubits, —and the breadth of the side-chamber, four cubits round about on every side of the house round about.
And he measures the wall of the house—six cubits, and the breadth of the side-chamber—four cubits, all around the house.
6 And the side-chambers, one over another were three, and that thirty times, and they entered into the wall which pertained to the house for the side-chambers round about on every side that they might have support, -and yet not have support in the wall of the house itself.
And the side-chambers [are] side-chamber by side-chamber, thirty-three times; and they are entering into the wall—which the house has for the side-chambers all around—to be taken hold of, and they are not taken hold of by the wall of the house.
7 And there was a broadening and a winding about higher and higher to the side-chambers, for the circuit of the house! was higher and higher round about on every side of the house, for this cause was there a broadening of the house upwards, —and from the lower, one ascended to the higher, by that which was in the middle,
And it has become wider when one has turned even higher toward the side-chambers, for the encompassment of the house [is] even higher all around the house: therefore the breadth of the house [goes] upwards, and so the lower [story] goes up to the higher by the middle.
8 Then saw I that the house had a height round about on every side, —the foundations of the side- chambers, a full reed, six cubits to the joining.
And I have looked at the height all around the house: the foundations of the side-chambers [are] the fullness of the reed, six cubits by the joining.
9 The breadth of the wall which pertained to the side-chamber on the outside was five cubits, - and that which was left vacant between the side-chambers which pertained to the house.
The breadth of that wall, of the side-chamber, at the outside, [is] five cubits; and the space remaining of the side-chambers—that of the house,
10 And between the chambers, was a breadth of twenty cubits round about the house round about on every side,
and between the chambers—[is] a breadth of twenty cubits around the house, all around.
11 And the entrance of the side-chamber, was at the vacant space, one entrance toward the north, and another entrance, toward the south, —and the breadth of the place left vacant was five cubits round about on every side.
And the opening of the side-chamber [is] to the remaining [space], one opening northward and one opening southward, and the breadth of the remaining space [is] five cubits all around.
12 And the building which was toward the front of the secluded place on the side toward the west was in breadth seventy cubits, and the wall of the building was five cubits in breadth round about on every side, -and the length thereof ninety cubits.
As for the building that [is] at the front of the separate place [at] the corner westward, the breadth [is] seventy cubits, and the wall of the building [is] five cubits broad all around, and its length—ninety cubits.
13 And he measured the house, in length, a hundred cubits, —and the secluded place and the structure and the walls thereof, in length, a hundred cubits.
And he has measured the house, the length [is] one hundred cubits; and the separate place, and the building, and its walls, the length [is] one hundred cubits;
14 And the breadth of the front of the house and the secluded place toward the east, a hundred cubits.
and the breadth of the front of the house, and of the separate place eastward—one hundred cubits.
15 And he measured the length of the building against the front of the secluded place which was over the hinder part thereof and the galleries thereof on this side and on that side a hundred cubits, —with the inner temple and the porches of the court:
And he has measured the length of the building to the front of the separate place that [is] at its back part, and its galleries on this side and on that side—one hundred cubits. And the inner temple and the porches of the court,
16 the entrance spaces and the latticed windows and the galleries round about their three stories, over against the entrance spaces wainscoted with wood, round about on every side, —and from the ground up to the windows, and the windows, were covered;
the thresholds, and the narrow windows, and the galleries around the three of them, opposite the threshold, [were] paneled with wood all around—and the ground to the windows, and the windows were covered,
17 unto the space above the entrance even unto the inner house and without and against all the wall round about on every side within and without, were the measures
over above the opening, and to the inner-house, and at the outside, and by all the wall all around inside and outside [by] measurements.
18 And it was made with cherubim and palm-trees, —with a palm-tree between cherub and cherub, and two faces had each cherub;
And it is made [with] cherubim and palm-trees, and a palm-tree [is] between cherub and cherub, and two faces [are] on the cherub;
19 and, the face of a man, was toward the palm-tree on this side, and, the face of a young lion, was toward the palm-tree on that side, —[thus was it] made unto all the house, round about on every side.
and the face of a man toward the palm-tree on this side and the face of a young lion toward the palm-tree on that side; it is made to all the house all around.
20 From the ground as far as the space above the entrance: were the cherubim and the palm-trees made.
From the earth to above the opening the cherubim and the palm-trees [were] made, and [on] the wall of the temple.
21 As for the wall of the temple, the door-posts were squared, —and as for the face of the holy place, the appearance was like the appearance [of the temple].
The doorpost of the temple [is] square, and of the front of the sanctuary, the appearance [is] as that appearance.
22 The altar, was of wood, three cubits in height and the length thereof, two cubits and the corners thereof and the length thereof and the walls thereof were of wood, —then spake he unto me saying, This, is the table, which is before Yahweh.
Of the altar, the wood [is] three cubits in height, and its length—two cubits; and its corners [are] to it, and its length, and its walls [are] of wood, and he speaks to me, “This [is] the table that [is] before YHWH.”
23 And there were two doors, to the temple, and to the holy place;
And the temple and the sanctuary had two doors;
24 and two leaves to the doors, —two folding leaves, two to the one door and two to the other door.
and the doors had two panels, two turning panels: two on one door, and two panels on the other.
25 And there had been made unto them unto the doors of the temple cherubim and palm-trees, like as had been made to the walls, —and thick beams of wood unto the front of the porch without.
And made on them, on the doors of the temple, [are] cherubim and palm-trees as are made on the walls, and a thickness of wood [is] at the front of the porch on the outside.
26 And there were latticed windows and palm-trees on this side and on that side, unto the sides of the porch, —and unto the side chambers of the house and the thick beams.
And narrow windows and palm-trees [are] on this side and on that side, at the sides of the porch, and the side-chambers of the house, and the thick places.
