Ezekiel 40:6-17 Modern English Version (MEV)

6. Then he went to the gateway facing east; and he went up its stairs and measured the threshold of the gate, which was one reed wide. And the other threshold of the gate was one reed wide.

7. Every little chamber was one reed long and one reed wide. And between the little chambers were five cubits. And the threshold of the gate by the vestibule of the inside gate was one reed.

8. He measured also the vestibule of the gate within, one reed.

9. Then he measured the vestibule of the gate, eight cubits. And its posts, two cubits. And the vestibule of the gate was the inner end.

10. The little chambers of the gate eastward were three on this side and three on that side. The three were of one measurement. And the posts had one measure on this side and on that side.

11. He measured the width of the entrance of the gate, ten cubits, and the length of the gate, thirteen cubits.

12. 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.

13. He measured then the gate from the roof of one little chamber to the roof of another; the width was twenty-five cubits, door against door.

14. He measured the posts, sixty cubits, even to the post of the court all around the gate.

15. From the face of the gate of the entrance to the face of the vestibule of the inner gate was fifty cubits.

16. There were narrow windows in the little chambers and in their posts inside the gate all around, and likewise in the vestibules. And windows were all around inside. And on each post were palm tree ornaments.

17. Then he brought me into the outer court, and there were chambers and a pavement made all around the court. Thirty chambers were on the pavement.
