40. and at the side without, at the going up to the opening of the north gate, [are] two tables; and at the other side that [is] at the porch of the gate, [are] two tables;
41. four tables [are] on this side, and four tables on that side, at the side of the gate, eight tables on which they slaughter.
42. And the four tables for burnt-offering [are] of hewn stone: the length one cubit and a half, and the breadth one cubit and a half, and the height one cubit: on them they place the instruments with which they slaughter the burnt-offering andthe sacrifice.
43. And the boundaries [are] one handbreadth, prepared within all round about: and on the tables [is] the flesh of the offering.
44. And on the outside of the inner gate [are] chambers of the singers, in the inner court, that [are] at the side of the north gate, and their fronts [are] southward, one at the side of the east gate [hath] the front northward.
45. And he speaketh unto me: `This chamber, whose front [is] southward, [is] for priests keeping charge of the house;
46. and the chamber, whose front [is] northward, [is] for priests keeping charge of the altar: they [are] sons of Zadok, who are drawing near of the sons of Levi unto Jehovah, to serve Him.'
