Yechezkel 40:14-26 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

14. He [the angelic being] made [measurement] of the ulam, threescore cubits, even unto the jamb of the khatzer at the sha'ar all around.

15. And from the front of the sha'ar, the outer side, unto the front of the interior ulam vestibule was fifty cubits.

16. And there were chalonot atumot (closed niches) for the ta'im, the sha'ar and for their side walls and these were interior of the sha'ar all around, and likewise the ulam vestibules: and chalonot were round about on the inside; and upon each jamb were timorim (palm trees).

17. Then he [the angelic being] brought me into the khatzer hakhitzonah (outer courtyard), and, hinei, there were leshakhot (chambers), and ritzpah (pavement) constructed for the khatzer (courtyard) all around; thirty leshakhot were along the ritzpah.

18. And the ritzpah was by the side of the she'arim running the length of the she'arim, the lower ritzpah.

19. Then he [the angelic being] measured the width from the forefront of the lower sha'ar unto the forefront of the khatzer hapenimi (inner courtyard) on its outside, a hundred cubits eastward and northward.

20. And the sha'ar of the khatzer hakhitzonah that looked toward the north, he measured the length thereof, and the width thereof.

21. And the ta'im thereof were shloshah on this side and shloshah on that side; and the jambs thereof and the ulam thereof were after the measure of the first sha'ar; the length thereof was fifty cubits, and the width five and twenty cubits.

22. And their chalonot, and their ulam vestibules, and their timorim, had the same measurements as the sha'ar that looketh toward the east; and they went up unto it by ma'alot sheva; and the ulam thereof were before them.

23. And the sha'ar of the khatzer hapenimi (inner courtyard) was facing toward the north, and toward the east; and he [the angelic being] measured from sha'ar to sha'ar a hundred cubits.

24. After that he [the angelic being] brought me toward the south, and, hinei, a sha'ar toward the south; and he measured the jambs thereof and the ulam vestibules thereof according to these measures.

25. And there were chalonim in it and in the ulam vestibule thereof round about, like those chalonot; the length was fifty cubits, and the width five and twenty cubits.

26. And there were ma'alot shivah (seven steps, stairs) to go up to it, and the ulam vestibule thereof were before them; and it had timorim, one on this side, and another on that side, upon the jambs thereof.
