5. Behold, a wall on the outside of the house all around, and in the man’s hand a measuring reed six cubits long, of a cubit and a hand width each: so he measured the thickness of the building, one reed; and the height, one reed.
6. Then came he to the gate which looks toward the east, and went up its steps: and he measured the threshold of the gate, one reed wide; and the other threshold, one reed wide.
7. Every lodge was one reed long, and one reed wide; and between the lodges was five cubits; and the threshold of the gate by the porch of the gate toward the house was one reed.
8. He measured also the porch of the gate toward the house, one reed.
9. Then measured he the porch of the gate, eight cubits; and its posts, two cubits; and the porch of the gate was toward the house.
10. The lodges 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.
11. He measured the width of the opening of the gate, ten cubits; and the length of the gate, thirteen cubits;
12. and a border before the lodges, one cubit on this side, and a border, one cubit on that side; and the lodges, six cubits on this side, and six cubits on that side.
13. He measured the gate from the roof of the one lodge to the roof of the other, a width of twenty-five cubits; door against door.
14. He made also posts, sixty cubits; and the court reached to the posts, around the gate.
15. From the forefront of the gate at the entrance to the forefront of the inner porch of the gate were fifty cubits.
16. There were closed windows to the lodges, and to their posts within the gate all around, and likewise to the arches; and windows were around inward; and on each post were palm trees.
17. Then brought he me into the outer court; and behold, there were rooms and a pavement, made for the court all around: thirty rooms were on the pavement.
18. The pavement was by the side of the gates, answerable to the length of the gates, even the lower pavement.
19. Then he measured the width from the forefront of the lower gate to the forefront of the inner court outside, one hundred cubits, both on the east and on the north.
20. The gate of the outer court whose prospect is toward the north, he measured its length and its width.
