Ezekiel 40:14-21 Good News Bible Anglicised (GNBDC)

14. The room at the far end led out to a courtyard. He measured that room and found it was ten metres wide.

15. The total length of the gateway from the outside wall of the gate to the far side of the last room was 25 metres.

16. There were small openings in the outside walls of all the rooms and also in the inner walls between the rooms. There were palm trees carved on the inner walls that faced the passage.

17. The man took me through the gateway into the courtyard. There were thirty rooms built against the outer wall, and in front of them there was an area paved with stones,

18. which extended round the courtyard. This outer courtyard was at a lower level than the inner courtyard.

19. There was a gateway at a higher level that led to the inner courtyard. The man measured the distance between the two gateways, and it was fifty metres.

20. Then the man measured the gateway on the north side that led into the outer courtyard.

21. The three guardrooms on each side of the passage, the walls between them, and the entrance room all had the same measurements as those in the east gateway. The total length of the gateway was 25 metres and the width 12.5 metres.
