< Ezekiel 41 >

1 Afterward he brought me to the temple, and measured the posts, six cubits broad on the one side, and six cubits broad on the other side, [which was] the breadth of the tabernacle.
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 door [was] ten cubits; and the sides of the door [were] five cubits on the one side, and five cubits on the other side: and he measured the length of it 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 he went inward, and measured the post of the door, two cubits; and the door, six cubits; and the breadth of the door, 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 of it twenty cubits; and the breadth, twenty cubits, before the temple: and he said to me, This [is] the most holy [place].
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 Afterward he measured the wall of the house, six cubits; and the breadth of [every] side-chamber, four cubits, round the house on every side.
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 [were] three, one over another, and thirty in order; and they entered into the wall which [was] of the house for the side-chambers around, that they might have hold, but they had not hold in the wall of the house.
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] an enlarging, and a winding about still upward to the side-chambers: for the winding about of the house went still upward around the house; therefore the breadth of the house [was still] upward, and so increased [from] the lowest [chamber] to the highest by the midst.
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 I saw also the hight of the house around: the foundations of the side-chambers [were] a full reed of six great cubits.
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 thickness of the wall, which [was] for the side-chamber without, [was] five cubits: and [that] which [was] left [was] the place of the side-chambers that [were] within.
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] the width of twenty cubits around the house on every side.
and between the chambers—[is] a breadth of twenty cubits around the house, all around.
11 And the doors of the side-chambers [were] towards [the place that was] left, one door towards the north, and another door towards the south: and the breadth of the place that was left [was] five cubits around.
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 Now the building that was before the separate place at the end towards the west [was] seventy cubits broad; and the wall of the building [was] five cubits thick around, and its length 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 So he measured the house, a hundred cubits long; and the separate place, and the building, with its walls, a hundred cubits long;
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 Also the breadth of the face of the house, and of the separate place towards 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 over against the separate place which [was] behind it, and its galleries on the one side and on the other 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 door posts, and the narrow windows, and the galleries around on their three stories, over against the door, ceiled with wood around, 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 To that above the door, even to the inner house, and without, and by all the wall around within and without, by measure.
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, so that a palm-tree [was] between a cherub and a cherub; and [every] cherub had two faces;
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 So that the face of a man [was] towards the palm-tree on the one side, and the face of a young lion towards the palm-tree on the other side: [it was] made through all the house around.
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 to above the door [were] cherubim and palm-trees made, and [on] the wall of the temple.
From the earth to above the opening the cherubim and the palm-trees [were] made, and [on] the wall of the temple.
21 The posts of the temple [were] squared, [and] the face of the sanctuary; the appearance [of the one] as the appearance [of the other].
The doorpost of the temple [is] square, and of the front of the sanctuary, the appearance [is] as that appearance.
22 The altar of wood [was] three cubits high, and its length two cubits; and its corners, and its length, and its walls, [were] of wood: and he said to me, This [is] the table that [is] before the LORD.
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 the temple and the sanctuary had two doors.
And the temple and the sanctuary had two doors;
24 And the doors had two leaves each, two turning leaves; two [leaves] for the one door, and two leaves for 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 were] made on them, on the doors of the temple, cherubim and palm-trees, as [were] made upon the walls; and [there were] thick planks upon the face 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] 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.
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.
