In the twenty-fifth year of our exile, at the beginning of the year, on the tenth day of the month, in the fourteenth year after the city was struck, on that very day, the hand of the LORD was upon me, and He brought me there.

In the five and twentieth year of our captivity, in the beginning of the year, in the tenth day of the month, in the fourteenth year after that the city was smitten, in the selfsame day the hand of the LORD was upon me, and brought me thither.

In visions of God, He brought me to the land of Israel and set me down on a very high mountain, on which was something like the form of a city facing toward the south.

In the visions of God brought he me into the land of Israel, and set me upon a very high mountain, by which was as the frame of a city on the south.

He brought me there, and behold, there was a man whose appearance was like bronze, with a line of flax in his hand and a measuring rod, and he was standing in the gateway.

And he brought me thither, and, behold, there was a man, whose appearance was like the appearance of brass, with a line of flax in his hand, and a measuring reed; and he stood in the gate.

The man said to me, 'Son of man, look with your eyes, hear with your ears, and pay attention to everything I am going to show you, for this is why you have been brought here. Declare everything you see to the house of Israel.'

And the man said unto me, Son of man, behold with thine eyes, and hear with thine ears, and set thine heart upon all that I shall shew thee; for to the intent that I might shew them unto thee art thou brought hither: declare all that thou seest to the house of Israel.

Behold, a wall surrounded the temple area. The measuring rod in the man’s hand was six long cubits, each cubit being a cubit and a handbreadth. He measured the width of the structure as one rod and its height as one rod.

And behold a wall on the outside of the house round about, and in the man's hand a measuring reed of six cubits long by the cubit and an hand breadth: so he measured the breadth of the building, one reed; and the height, one reed.

Then he went to the gateway that faced east, climbed its steps, and measured the threshold of the gate as one rod wide.

Then came he unto the gate which looketh toward the east, and went up the stairs thereof, and measured the threshold of the gate, which was one reed broad; and the other threshold of the gate, which was one reed broad.

Each guardroom was one rod long and one rod wide, and the space between the guardrooms was five cubits. The threshold of the gateway at the porch of the gate, located toward the inside, was also one rod.

And every little chamber was one reed long, and one reed broad; and between the little chambers were five cubits; and the threshold of the gate by the porch of the gate within was one reed.

He measured the porch of the gateway, which faced the interior, as one rod.

He measured also the porch of the gate within, one reed.

He measured the porch of the gate as eight cubits, and its pilasters as two cubits. The porch of the gate faced inward.

Then measured he the porch of the gate, eight cubits; and the posts thereof, two cubits; and the porch of the gate was inward.

There were three guardrooms on either side of the east-facing gateway, all of them were of equal dimension. The pilasters on either side also measured the same.

And the little chambers of the gate eastward were three on this side, and three on that side; they three were of one measure: and the posts had one measure on this side and on that side.

He measured the width of the gate opening as ten cubits and the length of the gateway as thirteen cubits.

And he measured the breadth of the entry of the gate, ten cubits; and the length of the gate, thirteen cubits.

There was a border of one cubit in front of the guardrooms on either side, and each guardroom was six cubits square on both sides.

The space also before the little chambers was one cubit on this side, and the space was one cubit on that side: and the little chambers were six cubits on this side, and six cubits on that side.

He measured the gateway from the roof of one guardroom to the roof of the opposite one; the width was twenty-five cubits. Doorway faced doorway.

He measured then the gate from the roof of one little chamber to the roof of another: the breadth was five and twenty cubits, door against door.

He made the pilasters sixty cubits high, and the court was surrounded by the gate.

He made also posts of threescore cubits, even unto the post of the court round about the gate.

And the entire length of the gateway, from the front of the entrance to the inner porch of the gate, was fifty cubits.

And from the face of the gate of the entrance unto the face of the porch of the inner gate were fifty cubits.

The gateway had windows with beveled frames facing inward toward the guardrooms and to their posts on all sides. The same applied to the porches. Around the gateway, windows were also built, and representations of palm trees decorated its posts.

And there were narrow windows to the little chambers, and to their posts within the gate round about, and likewise to the arches: and windows were round about inward: and upon each post were palm trees.

Then he brought me to the outer courtyard, where there were chambers and a paved surface created all around the courtyard. Thirty chambers faced the pavement.

Then brought he me into the outward court, and, lo, there were chambers, and a pavement made for the court round about: thirty chambers were upon the pavement.

The pavement ran alongside the gates, corresponding to the length of the gates; this was the lower pavement.

And the pavement by the side of the gates over against the length of the gates was the lower pavement.

Then he measured the distance from the front of the lower gateway to the front of the inner courtyard's gate; it was one hundred cubits eastward and northward.

Then he measured the breadth from the forefront of the lower gate unto the forefront of the inner court without, an hundred cubits eastward and northward.

He measured a gate that faced north, belonging to the outer courtyard. Its length and width were measured.

And the gate of the outward court that looked toward the north, he measured the length thereof, and the breadth thereof.

Its guardrooms—three on each side—its posts and its porches had the same dimensions as the first gate, fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.

And the little chambers thereof were three on this side and three on that side; and the posts thereof and the arches thereof were after the measure of the first gate: the length thereof was fifty cubits, and the breadth five and twenty cubits.

Its windows, its porches, and its palm tree decorations were designed similarly to the gate facing east. Seven steps led up to it, and its porches were in front of them.

And their windows, and their arches, and their palm trees, were after the measure of the gate that looketh toward the east; and they went up unto it by seven steps; and the arches thereof were before them.

There was a gate to the inner courtyard opposite the northern and the eastern gates, and he measured the distance—one hundred cubits from gate to gate.

And the gate of the inner court was over against the gate toward the north, and toward the east; and he measured from gate to gate an hundred cubits.

Then he led me southward, where I saw a gate facing south. He measured its posts and its porches, and their dimensions matched those of the others.

After that he brought me toward the south, and behold a gate toward the south: and he measured the posts thereof and the arches thereof according to these measures.

The gate and its porches had windows all around, like the other windows—fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.

And there were windows in it and in the arches thereof round about, like those windows: the length was fifty cubits, and the breadth five and twenty cubits.

Its staircase had seven steps, leading up to it, and its porches were in front of them. It also had palm tree decorations, one on each side of its posts.

And there were seven steps to go up to it, and the arches thereof were before them: and it had palm trees, one on this side, and another on that side, upon the posts thereof.

A gate to the inner courtyard facing south was opposite this gate. He measured from gate to gate, and it was one hundred cubits.

And there was a gate in the inner court toward the south: and he measured from gate to gate toward the south an hundred cubits.

Then he brought me through the south gate into the inner courtyard, where he measured this gate, and it had the same dimensions as the others.

And he brought me to the inner court by the south gate: and he measured the south gate according to these measures;

Its guardrooms, posts, and porches had the same measurements as the others. The gate and its porches had windows all around, fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.

And the little chambers thereof, and the posts thereof, and the arches thereof, according to these measures: and there were windows in it and in the arches thereof round about: it was fifty cubits long, and five and twenty cubits broad.

The porches stretched all around, with a length of twenty-five cubits and a width of five cubits.

And the arches round about were five and twenty cubits long, and five cubits broad.

Its porch faced the outer courtyard, and palm tree decorations adorned its posts. Eight steps led up to it.

And the arches thereof were toward the utter court; and palm trees were upon the posts thereof: and the going up to it had eight steps.

Then he brought me to the inner courtyard, facing east, measured the gate, and its dimensions were the same as the others.

And he brought me into the inner court toward the east: and he measured the gate according to these measures.

Its guardrooms, posts, and porches had the same measurements as the others. Windows were all around the gate and its porches. The total length was fifty cubits, and the width was twenty-five cubits.

And the little chambers thereof, and the posts thereof, and the arches thereof, were according to these measures: and there were windows therein and in the arches thereof round about: it was fifty cubits long, and five and twenty cubits broad.

Its porch faced the outer courtyard. Palm tree decorations were on its posts, one on each side. Eight steps led up to it.

And the arches thereof were toward the outward court; and palm trees were upon the posts thereof, on this side, and on that side: and the going up to it had eight steps.

He brought me to the north gate and measured it. Its dimensions were the same as the others.

And he brought me to the north gate, and measured it according to these measures;

Its guardrooms, posts, and porches matched the measurements of the others. Windows were all around. The length of the gate was fifty cubits, and the width was twenty-five cubits.

The little chambers thereof, the posts thereof, and the arches thereof, and the windows to it round about: the length was fifty cubits, and the breadth five and twenty cubits.

And the posts thereof were toward the utter court; and palm trees were upon the posts thereof, on this side, and on that side: and the going up to it had eight steps.

There was a chamber with its entrance by the gateposts, where the burnt offerings were washed.

And the chambers and the entries thereof were by the posts of the gates, where they washed the burnt offering.

Inside the porch of the gate were two tables on each side, to slaughter the burnt offerings, sin offerings, and guilt offerings.

And in the porch of the gate were two tables on this side, and two tables on that side, to slay thereon the burnt offering and the sin offering and the trespass offering.

On the outer side of the north gate, at its entrance, were two tables, and on the other side of the porch, there were two more tables.

And at the side without, as one goeth up to the entry of the north gate, were two tables; and on the other side, which was at the porch of the gate, were two tables.

Four tables were on one side and four on the other, beside the gate. There were eight tables in total, where the sacrifices were slaughtered.

Four tables were on this side, and four tables on that side, by the side of the gate; eight tables, whereupon they slew their sacrifices.

Additionally, there were four tables of hewn stone for the burnt offerings, one and a half cubits long, one and a half cubits wide, and one cubit high. On these, the tools for slaughtering the burnt offerings and sacrifices were placed.

And the four tables were of hewn stone for the burnt offering, of a cubit and an half long, and a cubit and an half broad, and one cubit high: whereupon also they laid the instruments wherewith they slew the burnt offering and the sacrifice.

Hooks, a handbreadth in length, were fixed all around the inside. The tables were used for placing the meat of the sacrifices.

And within were hooks, an hand broad, fastened round about: and upon the tables was the flesh of the offering.

Outside the inner gate, in the inner courtyard, were chambers for the singers, by the side of the north gate facing south, and one by the side of the east gate facing north.

And without the inner gate were the chambers of the singers in the inner court, which was at the side of the north gate; and their prospect was toward the south: one at the side of the east gate having the prospect toward the north.

Then he said to me, 'This chamber, which faces south, is for the priests who keep charge of the temple.'

And he said unto me, This chamber, whose prospect is toward the south, is for the priests, the keepers of the charge of the house.

And the chamber that faces north is for the priests who keep charge of the altar. These are the sons of Zadok, who are from the descendants of Levi and are allowed to come near to the LORD to minister to Him.

And the chamber whose prospect is toward the north is for the priests, the keepers of the charge of the altar: these are the sons of Zadok among the sons of Levi, which come near to the LORD to minister unto him.

He measured the courtyard as one hundred cubits long and one hundred cubits wide, forming a square. The altar was in front of the temple.

So he measured the court, an hundred cubits long, and an hundred cubits broad, foursquare; and the altar that was before the house.

Then he brought me to the porch of the temple and measured the pilasters of the porch; they were five cubits on one side and five cubits on the other. The width of the entrance was three cubits on each side.

And he brought me to the porch of the house, and measured each post of the porch, five cubits on this side, and five cubits on that side: and the breadth of the gate was three cubits on this side, and three cubits on that side.
