411 Then he brought me to the nave and measured the side pillars ; six cubits wide on each side was the width of the side pillar . 2 The width of the entrance was ten cubits and the sides of the entrance were five cubits on each side . And he measured the length of the nave, forty cubits , and the width , twenty cubits . 3 Then he went inside and measured each side pillar of the doorway , two cubits , and the doorway , six cubits high; and the width of the doorway , seven cubits . 4 He measured its length , twenty cubits , and the width , twenty cubits , before e the nave ; and he said to me, "This is the most holy place." 5 Then he measured the wall of the temple , six cubits ; and the width of the side chambers , four cubits , all around about the house on every side . 6 The side chambers were in three stories, one above another , and thirty in each story ; and the side chambers extended to the wall which stood on their inward side all around , that they might be fastened , and not be fastened into the wall of the temple itself. 7 The side chambers surrounding the temple were wider at each successive story . Because the structure surrounding the temple went upward by stages on all sides of the temple , therefore e the width of the temple increased as it went higher ; and thus one went up from the lowest story to the highest by way of the second story. 8 I saw also that the house had a raised platform all around ; the foundations of the side chambers were a full rod of six long cubits in height. 9 The thickness of the outer wall of the side chambers was five cubits . But the free space between the side chambers belonging to the temple 10 and the outer chambers was twenty cubits in width all around the temple on every side . 11 The doorways of the side chambers toward the free space consisted of one doorway toward the north and another doorway toward the south ; and the width of the free space e was five cubits all around .
12 The building that was in front of the separate area at the side toward the west was seventy cubits wide ; and the wall of the building was five cubits thick all around , and its length was ninety cubits . 13 Then he measured the temple , a hundred cubits long ; the separate area with the building and its walls were also a hundred cubits long . 14 Also the width of the front of the temple and that of the separate areas along the east side totaled a hundred cubits . 15 He measured the length of the building along the front of the separate area behind e it, with a gallery on each side , a hundred cubits ; he also measured the inner nave and the porches of the court . 16 The thresholds , the latticed windows and the galleries round about their three stories, opposite the threshold , were paneled with wood all around , and from the ground to the windows (but the windows were covered ), 17 over the entrance , and to the inner house , and on the outside , and on all the wall all around inside and outside , by measurement . 18 It was carved with cherubim and palm trees ; and a palm tree was between cherub and cherub , and every cherub had two faces , 19 a man's face toward the palm tree on one side and a young lion's face toward the palm tree on the other side ; they were carved on all the house all around . 20 From the ground to above e the entrance cherubim and palm trees were carved , as well as on the wall of the nave . 21 The doorposts of the nave were square ; as for the front of the sanctuary , the appearance of one doorpost was like that of the other. 22 The altar was of wood , three cubits high and its length two cubits ; its corners , its base and its sides were of wood . And he said to me, "This is the table that is before the Lord ." 23 The nave and the sanctuary each had a double door . 24 Each of the doors had two leaves , two swinging leaves ; two leaves for one door and two leaves for the other . 25 Also there were carved on them, on the doors of the nave , cherubim and palm trees like those carved on the walls ; and there was a threshold of wood on the front of the porch outside e . 26 There were latticed windows and palm trees on one side and on the other , on the sides of the porch ; thus were the side chambers of the house and the thresholds .
