Ezekiel 41

1 He brought me to the nave and measured the posts, six cubits wide on the one side and six cubits wide on the other side, which was the width of the tent.

Afterwards he brought me to the temple; and he measured the projecting wall-pillars, six cubits broad on this side, and six cubits broad on that side, according to the breadth of the house.

2 The width of the entrance was ten cubits, and the sides of the entrance were five cubits on the one side, and five cubits on the other side. He measured its length, forty cubits, and the width, twenty cubits.

And the breadth of the door was ten cubits; and the sides of the door were five cubits on this side; and five cubits on that side. Then he measured the length, forty cubits, and the breadth, twenty cubits.

3 Then he went inward and measured each post of the entrance, two cubits; and the entrance, six cubits; and the width of the entrance, seven cubits.

And he went inward, and measured the border of the door, two cubits; and the door, six cubits; and the breadth of the door, seven cubits.

4 He measured its length, twenty cubits, and the width, twenty cubits, before the nave. He said to me, “This is the most holy place.”

Then he measured twenty cubits in length, and twenty cubits in breadth in the temple, and said to me, This is the most holy place.

5 Then he measured the wall of the house, six cubits; and the width of every side room, four cubits, all around the house on every side.

And he measured the wall of the house, six cubits; and the breadth of every side-chamber, four cubits round about, round about the house:

6 The side rooms were in three stories, one over another, and thirty in each story. They entered into the wall which belonged to the house for the side rooms all around, that they might be supported and not penetrate the wall of the house.

And the side-chambers were chamber to chamber, three and thirty times; and they entered into the wall of the house of the side-chambers round about, and were connected with it; but they were not connected with the wall of the house.

7 The side rooms were wider on the higher levels, because the walls were narrower at the higher levels. Therefore the width of the house increased upward; and so one went up from the lowest level to the highest through the middle level.

And, the side-chambers became wider upward, having a winding ascent. For the circuit of the house went still upward, round about the house; therefore the greater breadth of the house was upward; and so they ascended from the lowest story to the highest through the middle story.

8 I saw also that the house had a raised base all around. The foundations of the side rooms were a full reed of six great cubits.

I saw also the height of the house round about; the foundations of the side-chambers were a full reed, six cubits to the knuckles.

9 The thickness of the outer wall of the side rooms was five cubits. That which was left was the place of the side rooms that belonged to the house.

The thickness of the wall of the side-chambers outward was five cubits, and the space which was left was the place of the side-chambers of the house.

10 Between the rooms was a width of twenty cubits around the house on every side.

And between the rooms was the breadth of twenty cubits round about the house on every side.

11 The doors of the side rooms were toward an open area that was left, one door toward the north, and another door toward the south. The width of the open area was five cubits all around.

And the doors of the side-chambers were toward the space that was left, one door toward the north, and another door toward the south; and the breadth of the space that was left was five cubits round about.

12 The building that was before the separate place at the side toward the west was seventy cubits wide; and the wall of the building was five cubits thick all around, and its length ninety cubits.

And the building which was before the separate place, at the side toward the west, was seventy cubits broad; and the wall of the building was five cubits thick round about, and the length thereof was ninety cubits.

13 So he measured the temple, one hundred cubits long; and the separate place, and the building, with its walls, one hundred cubits long;

Then he measured the length of the house, a hundred cubits; and the length of the separate place and the building and the walls thereof, a hundred cubits.

14 also the width of the face of the temple, and of the separate place toward the east, one hundred cubits.

Also the breadth towards the front of the house and of the separate place toward the east was a hundred cubits.

15 He measured the length of the building before the separate place which was at its back, and its galleries on the one side and on the other side, one hundred cubits from the inner temple, and the porches of the court,

And he measured the length of the building before the separate place, and that which was behind it, and the galleries thereof on this side and on that side, a hundred cubits; and the inner temple, and the porches of the court,

16 the thresholds, and the closed windows, and the galleries around on their three stories, opposite the threshold, with wood ceilings all around, and from the ground up to the windows, (now the windows were covered),

the thresholds, and the windows that were closed, and the galleries round about the three sides. Over against the threshold was a table of wood round about, from the ground to the windows, and the windows were covered with it;

17 to the space above the door, even to the inner house, and outside, and by all the wall all around inside and outside, by measure.

upon the space above every door, and upon the inner house, and without, and upon all the wall round about within and without, according to measure.

18 It was made with cherubim and palm trees. A palm tree was between cherub and cherub, and every cherub had two faces,

And cherubs and palm-trees were made, one palm-tree between two cherubs, and every cherub had two faces;

19 so that there was the face of a man 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 like this through all the house all around.

and the face of a man was toward a palm-tree on one side, and the face of a lion toward a palm-tree on the other side. So was it made upon all the house round about.

20 Cherubim and palm trees were made from the ground to above the door. The wall of the temple was like this.

From the ground to above the door were cherubs and palm-trees made, and on the wall of the temple.

21 The door posts of the nave were squared. As for the face of the nave, its appearance was as the appearance of the temple.

The posts of the temple were four-square; and the front of the sanctuary had the same appearance.

22 The altar was of wood, three cubits high, and its length two cubits. Its corners, its base, and its walls were of wood. He said to me, “This is the table that is before the LORD.”

The altar was of wood, three cubits high, and two cubits long; and the corners thereof and the base thereof and the walls thereof were of wood. And he said to me, This is the table that standeth before Jehovah.

23 The temple and the sanctuary had two doors.

And the temple and the sanctuary had two doors.

24 The doors had two leaves each, two turning leaves: two for the one door, and two leaves for the other.

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

25 There were made on them, on the doors of the nave, cherubim and palm trees, like those made on the walls. There was a threshold of wood on the face of the porch outside.

And there were made on them, even on the doors of the temple, cherubs and palm-trees, such as were made upon the walls, and a wooden threshold was before the porch without.

26 There were closed windows and palm trees on the one side and on the other side, on the sides of the porch. This is how the side rooms of the temple and the thresholds were arranged.

And at the closed windows were palm-trees on this side, and on that side, on the sides of the porch, and on the side-chambers of the house, and on the thresholds.
