Ezekiel 42

NEW JERUSALEM	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 He then took me out into the outer court on the north side and led me to the room facing the court, thatis to say, to the front of the building on the north side.	1 Then he brought me forth into the utter court, the way toward the north: and he brought me into the chamber that was over against the separate place, and which was before the building toward the north.
2 Along the front, it was a hundred cubits long on the north side and fifty cubits wide.	2 Before the length of an hundred cubits was the north door, and the breadth was fifty cubits.
3 Facing the gateways of the inner court and facing the paving of the outer court was a gal ery in front ofthe triple gal ery,	3 Over against the twenty cubits which were for the inner court, and over against the pavement which was for the utter court, was gallery against gallery in three stories.
4 and in front of the rooms was a walk, ten cubits measured inwards and a hundred cubits long; theirdoors looked north.	4 And before the chambers was a walk of ten cubits breadth inward, a way of one cubit; and their doors toward the north.
5 The top-floor rooms were narrow because the gal eries took up part of the width, being narrower thanthose on the ground floor or those on the middle floor of the building;	5 Now the upper chambers were shorter: for the galleries were higher than these, than the lower, and than the middlemost of the building.
6 these were divided into three storeys and had no columns such as the court had. Hence they werenarrower than the ground floor ones or the middle-floor ones (below them).	6 For they were in three stories, but had not pillars as the pillars of the courts: therefore the building was straitened more than the lowest and the middlemost from the ground.
7 The outer wal paral el to the rooms, facing them and giving onto the outer court, was fifty cubits long,	7 And the wall that was without over against the chambers, toward the utter court on the forepart of the chambers, the length thereof was fifty cubits.
8 the length of the rooms facing the outer court being fifty cubits, while for those facing the hal of theTemple it was a hundred cubits.	8 For the length of the chambers that were in the utter court was fifty cubits: and, lo, before the temple were an hundred cubits.
9 Beneath the rooms there was an entrance from the east, leading in from the outer court.	9 And from under these chambers was the entry on the east side, as one goeth into them from the utter court.
10 In the thickness of the wal of the court, on the south side fronting the court and the building, wererooms.	10 The chambers were in the thickness of the wall of the court toward the east, over against the separate place, and over against the building.
11 A walk ran in front of them, as with the rooms built on the north side; they were of the same lengthand breadth, and were of similar design with similar doors in and out.	11 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 goings out were both according to their fashions, and according to their doors.
12 Before the rooms on the south side there was an entrance at the end of each walk, opposite thecorresponding wall on the east side, at their entries.	12 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 He said to me, 'The northern and southern rooms giving onto the court are the rooms of thesanctuary, in which the priests who approach Yahweh will eat the most holy things. In them will be placed themost holy things: the oblation, the sacrifice for sin and the sacrifice of reparation, since this is a holy place.	13 Then said he unto me, The north chambers and the south chambers, which are before the separate place, they be holy chambers, where the priests that approach unto 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 Once the priests have entered, they wil not go out of the holy place into the outer court withoutleaving their liturgical vestments there, since these vestments are holy; they will put on other clothes beforegoing near places assigned to the people.'	14 When the priests enter therein, then shall they not go out of the holy place into the utter court, but there they shall lay their garments wherein they minister; for they are holy; and shall put on other garments, and shall approach to those things which are for the people.
15 When he had finished measuring the inside of the Temple, he took me out to the east gate andmeasured it right round the sides.	15 Now when he had made an end of measuring the inner house, he brought me forth toward the gate whose prospect is toward the east, and measured it round about.
16 He measured the east side with his measuring rod: a total of five hundred cubits by the measuringrod.	16 He measured the east side with the measuring reed, five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed round about.
17 He then measured the north side: a total of five hundred cubits by the measuring rod.	17 He measured the north side, five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed round about.
18 He then measured the south side: five hundred cubits by the measuring rod	18 He measured the south side, five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed.
19 was the total. On the west side he measured five hundred cubits by the measuring rod.	19 He turned about to the west side, and measured five hundred reeds with the measuring reed.
20 He measured the entire enclosing wall on al four sides: length five hundred, breadth five hundred,separating the sacred from the profane.	20 He measured it by the four sides: it had a wall round about, five hundred reeds long, and five hundred broad, to make a separation between the sanctuary and the profane place.
