12. And a wall was before the alcoves; one cubit on either side was the wall from here. And the alcove was six cubits on each side.
13. And he measured the gate from the top slab of the alcove to its opposite top slab as twenty-five cubits in width, from one entrance to the other one opposite it.
14. And he made the pilasters sixty cubits, and to the pilaster of the courtyard all the way around the gate.
15. And from the front of the gate at the entrance to the front of the portico of the inner gate was fifty cubits.
16. And there were narrow windows for the alcoves and for their pilasters to the inside of the gate all the way around it. And likewise with respect to the porticos and windows were all the way around to the inside, and on a pilaster there were images of palm trees.
17. And he brought me to the outer courtyard, and there were chambers and a pavement made for the courtyard all around it, and thirty chambers were facing to the pavement.
18. And the pavement flanked the side of the gates and all along the gates; this describes the lower pavement.
19. And he measured the width from the front of the lower gate to the front of the outside of the inner courtyard as a hundred cubits to the east and to the north.
20. And as for the gate that had its face toward the north of the outer courtyard, he measured its length and its width.
21. And its alcoves were three on each side, and its pilasters and its porticos had the same measurement as the first gate: its length was fifty cubits, and its width was twenty-five cubits.
22. And its windows and its porticos and its palm tree images were like the measurement of the gate that was facing toward the east; and it had seven steps that go up it, and there were porticos before them.
23. And a gate led to the inner courtyard, opposite the gate to the north and to the east, and he measured from gate to gate as a hundred cubits.
24. And then he took me toward the south, and look, a gate toward the south, and he measured its pilasters and its porticos; they had measurements just like the others.
