Ezekiel 40 :: Amplified Bible (AMP)

And behold, there was a wall all around the outside [area] of the temple (house) [of the LORD], and in the man’s hand a measuring rod six cubits long (10.2 ft.), [fn]each [fn]cubit being longer than the [fn]standard one by a hand width. So he measured the thickness of the wall, one rod; and the height, one rod.

Then he brought me into the outer courtyard, and behold, there were chambers and a pavement made for the courtyard all around; thirty chambers faced the pavement.

And as for the gate of the outer courtyard which faced the north he measured [both] its length and its width.

Then he led me toward the south, and behold, there was a gate toward the south; and he measured its side pillars and its porches, [fn]and they measured the same as the others.

Then the man (angel) brought me to the inner courtyard by the south gate; and he measured the south gate according to those same measurements.

He brought me into the inner courtyard toward the east, and he measured the gate; it measured the same as the others.

Then he brought me to the north gate and he measured it; the measurements were the same as those of the other gates,

A chamber with its doorway was by the side pillars of the gates; there the burnt offering was to be washed.

From the outside to the inner gate were chambers for the singers in the inner courtyard, one of which was [fn]beside the north gate, with its front toward the south, and one [fn]beside the [fn]south gate facing toward the north.

Then he brought me to the porch of the temple, and he measured each side pillar of the porch, five cubits on each side; and the width of the gate was three cubits on each side.
