| 1Then he brought me forth into the utter court, the way toward the north: and he brought me into the chamber that was over against the separate place, and which was before the building toward the north. | 1Then he brought me out into the outer court, the way toward the north; and he brought me to the chamber which was opposite the separate area and opposite the building toward the north. |
| 2Before the length of an hundred cubits was the north door, and the breadth was fifty cubits. | 2Along the length, which was a hundred cubits, was the north door; the width was fifty cubits. |
| 3Over against the twenty cubits which were for the inner court, and over against the pavement which was for the utter court, was gallery against gallery in three stories. | 3Opposite the twenty cubits which belonged to the inner court, and opposite the pavement which belonged to the outer court, was gallery corresponding to gallery in three stories. |
| 4And before the chambers was a walk of ten cubits breadth inward, a way of one cubit; and their doors toward the north. | 4Before the chambers was an inner walk ten cubits wide, a way of one hundred cubits; and their openings were on the north. |
| 5Now the upper chambers were shorter: for the galleries were higher than these, than the lower, and than the middlemost of the building. | 5Now the upper chambers were smaller because the galleries took more space away from them than from the lower and middle ones in the building. |
| 6For they were in three stories, but had not pillars as the pillars of the courts: therefore the building was straitened more than the lowest and the middlemost from the ground. | 6For they were in three stories and had no pillars like the pillars of the courts; therefore the upper chambers were set back from the ground upward, more than the lower and middle ones. |
| 7And the wall that was without over against the chambers, toward the utter court on the forepart of the chambers, the length thereof was fifty cubits. | 7As for the outer wall by the side of the chambers, toward the outer court facing the chambers, its length was fifty cubits. |
| 8For the length of the chambers that were in the utter court was fifty cubits: and, lo, before the temple were an hundred cubits. | 8For the length of the chambers which were in the outer court was fifty cubits; and behold, the length of those facing the temple was a hundred cubits. |
| 9And from under these chambers was the entry on the east side, as one goeth into them from the utter court. | 9Below these chambers was the entrance on the east side, as one enters them from the outer court. |
| 10The chambers were in the thickness of the wall of the court toward the east, over against the separate place, and over against the building. | 10In the thickness of the wall of the court toward the east, facing the separate area and facing the building, there were chambers. |
| 11And the way before them was like the appearance of the chambers which were toward the north, as long as they, and as broad as they: and all their goings out were both according to their fashions, and according to their doors. | 11The way in front of them was like the appearance of the chambers which were on the north, according to their length so was their width, and all their exits were both according to their arrangements and openings. |
| 12And according to the doors of the chambers that were toward the south was a door in the head of the way, even the way directly before the wall toward the east, as one entereth into them. | 12Corresponding to the openings of the chambers which were toward the south was an opening at the head of the way, the way in front of the wall toward the east, as one enters them. |
| 13Then said he unto me, The north chambers and the south chambers, which are before the separate place, they be holy chambers, where the priests that approach unto the LORD shall eat the most holy things: there shall they lay the most holy things, and the meat offering, and the sin offering, and the trespass offering; for the place is holy. | 13Then he said to me, "The north chambers and the south chambers, which are opposite the separate area, they are the holy chambers where the priests who are near to the LORD shall eat the most holy things. There they shall lay the most holy things, the grain offering, the sin offering and the guilt offering; for the place is holy. |
| 14When the priests enter therein, then shall they not go out of the holy place into the utter court, but there they shall lay their garments wherein they minister; for they are holy; and shall put on other garments, and shall approach to those things which are for the people. | 14"When the priests enter, then they shall not go out into the outer court from the sanctuary without laying there their garments in which they minister, for they are holy. They shall put on other garments; then they shall approach that which is for the people." |
| 15Now when he had made an end of measuring the inner house, he brought me forth toward the gate whose prospect is toward the east, and measured it round about. | 15Now when he had finished measuring the inner house, he brought me out by the way of the gate which faced toward the east and measured it all around. |
| 16He measured the east side with the measuring reed, five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed round about. | 16He measured on the east side with the measuring reed five hundred reeds by the measuring reed. |
| 17He measured the north side, five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed round about. | 17He measured on the north side five hundred reeds by the measuring reed. |
| 18He measured the south side, five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed. | 18On the south side he measured five hundred reeds with the measuring reed. |
| 19He turned about to the west side, and measured five hundred reeds with the measuring reed. | 19He turned to the west side and measured five hundred reeds with the measuring reed. |
| 20He measured it by the four sides: it had a wall round about, five hundred reeds long, and five hundred broad, to make a separation between the sanctuary and the profane place. | 20He measured it on the four sides; it had a wall all around, the length five hundred and the width five hundred, to divide between the holy and the profane. |
