BBE WEB
And he took me out into the inner square in the direction of the north: and he took me into the rooms which were opposite the separate place and opposite the building to the north. Then he brought me forth into the outer court, the way toward the north: and he brought me into the room that was over against the separate place, and which was over against the building toward the north.
On the north side it was a hundred cubits long and fifty cubits wide, Before the length of one hundred cubits was the north door, and the breadth was fifty cubits.
Opposite the space of twenty cubits which was part of the inner square, and opposite the stone floor of the outer square. There were covered ways facing one another on the third floor. Over against the twenty cubits which belonged to the inner court, and over against the pavement which belonged to the outer court, was gallery against gallery in the third story.
And in front of the rooms was a walk, ten cubits wide and a hundred cubits long; and their doors were facing north. Before the rooms was a walk of ten cubits’ breadth inward, a way of one cubit; and their doors were toward the north.
And the higher rooms were shorter: for the covered ways took up more space from these than from the lower and middle rooms. Now the upper rooms were shorter; for the galleries took away from these, more than from the lower and the middle, in the building.
For they were on three floors, and they had no pillars like the pillars of the outer square; so the highest was narrower than the lowest and middle floors from the earth level. For they were in three stories, and they didn’t have pillars as the pillars of the courts: therefore the uppermost was straitened more than the lowest and the middle from the ground.
And the wall which went outside by the side of the rooms, in the direction of the outer square in front of the rooms, was fifty cubits long. The wall that was outside by the side of the rooms, toward the outer court before the rooms, its length was fifty cubits.
For the rooms in the outer square were fifty cubits long: and in front of the Temple was a space of a hundred cubits. For the length of the rooms that were in the outer court was fifty cubits: and behold, before the temple were one hundred cubits.
And under these rooms was the way in from the east side, as one goes into them from the outer square at the head of the outer wall. From under these rooms was the entry on the east side, as one goes into them from the outer court.
(And he took me) to the south, and in front of the separate place and in front of the building there were rooms. In the thickness of the wall of the court toward the east, before the separate place, and before the building, there were rooms.
And there was a walk in front of them like that by the rooms on the north; they were equally long and wide; and the ways out of them were the same in design and had the same sort of doors. The way before them was like the appearance of the way of the rooms which were toward the north; according to their length so was their breadth: and all their exits were both according to their fashions, and according to their doors.
And under the rooms on the south was a door at the head of the outer wall in the direction of the east as one goes in. According to the doors of the rooms that were toward the south was a door at the head of the way, even the way directly before the wall toward the east, as one enters into them.
And he said to me, The north rooms and the south rooms in front of the separate place are the holy rooms, where the priests who come near the Lord take the most holy things for their food: there the most holy things are placed, with the meal offering and the sin-offering and the offering for error; for the place is holy. Then he said to me, The north rooms and the south rooms, which are before the separate place, they are the holy rooms, where the priests who are near to Yahweh shall eat the most holy things: there shall they lay the most holy things, and the meal offering, and the sin offering, and the trespass offering; for the place is holy.
When the priests go in, they may not go out of the holy place into the outer square, and there they are to put the robes in which they do the work of the Lord's house, for they are holy: and they have to put on other clothing before they come near that which has to do with the people. When the priests enter in, then shall they not go out of the holy place into the outer court, but there they shall lay their garments in which they minister; for they are holy: and they shall put on other garments, and shall approach to that which pertains to the people.
And when he had come to the end of measuring the inner house, he took me out to the doorway looking to the east, and took its measure all round. Now when he had made an end of measuring the inner house, he brought me forth by the way of the gate whose prospect is toward the east, and measured it all around.
He went round and took the measure of it on the east side with the measuring rod, five hundred, measured with the rod all round. He measured on the east side with the measuring reed five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed all around.
And he went round and took the measure of it on the north side with the measuring rod, five hundred, measured with the rod all round. He measured on the north side five hundred reeds with the measuring reed all around.
And he went round and took the measure of it on the south side with the measuring rod, five hundred, measured with the rod all round. He measured on the south side five hundred reeds with the measuring reed.
And he went round and took the measure of it on the west side with the measuring rod, five hundred, measured with the rod all round. He turned about to the west side, and measured five hundred reeds with the measuring reed.
He took its measure on the four sides: and it had a wall all round, five hundred long and five hundred wide, separating what was holy from what was common. He measured it on the four sides: it had a wall around it, the length five hundred, and the breadth five hundred, to make a separation between that which was holy and that which was common.
