Christian Standard Bible

International Standard Version

1Next he brought me into the great hall and measured the jambs; on each side the width of the jamb was 10 1/2 feet.

1Next he brought me to the Temple and measured its door jambs at six cubits wide on each side of the structure.

2The width of the entrance was 17 1/2 feet, and the side walls of the entrance were 8 3/4 feet wide on each side. He also measured the length of the great hall, 70 feet, and the width, 35 feet.

2The entrance was ten cubits wide and its door jambs were five cubits wide on each side. He measured the length of the nave at 40 cubits and its width at 20 cubits.

3He went inside the next room and measured the jambs at the entrance; they were 3 1/2 feet wide. The entrance was 10 1/2 feet wide, and the width of the entrance's side walls on each side was 12 1/4 feet.

3Then he went inside and measured the door jambs at two cubits wide and the doorway at six cubits high. The doorway was seven cubits wide.

4He then measured the length of the room adjacent to the great hall, 35 feet, and the width, 35 feet. And he said to me, "This is the most holy place."

4He measured its length at 20 cubits, its width at 20 cubits in front of the structure, and then he told me, "This is the most holy area."

5Then he measured the wall of the temple; it was 10 1/2 feet thick. The width of the side rooms all around the temple was 7 feet.

5Next, he measured the Temple walls at six cubits high and the width of the side chambers at four cubits around all four sides of the Temple.

6The side rooms were arranged one above another in three stories of thirty rooms each. There were ledges on the wall of the temple all around to serve as supports for the side rooms, so that the supports would not be in the temple wall itself.

6The side chambers consisted of three stories, each above the other, with 30 chambers in each story. The side chambers extended out from the wall that faced the inside of the chambers where the chambers were fastened together, but the chamber walls were not fastened directly into the Temple walls themselves.

7The side rooms surrounding the temple widened at each successive story, for the structure surrounding the temple went up by stages. This was the reason for the temple's broadness as it rose. And so, one would go up from the lowest story to the highest by means of the middle one.

7The side chambers surrounding the Temple were wider at each successive story, because the surrounding structure ascended by proportional increments as it rose, ascending to the highest story by going up successively from the lowest.

8I saw that the temple had a raised platform surrounding it; this foundation for the side rooms was 10 1/2 feet high.

8I observed a raised platform that surrounded the Temple, and the foundations of the side chambers were a full six cubits deep.

9The thickness of the outer wall of the side rooms was 8 3/4 feet. The free space between the side rooms of the temple

9The outer wall of the side chambers was five cubits thick, and there was an empty space between the Temple's side chambers

10and the outer chambers was 35 feet wide all around the temple.

10and its outer chambers 20 cubits in width, surrounding the Temple on each side.

11The side rooms opened into the free space, one entrance toward the north and another to the south. The area of free space was 8 3/4 feet wide all around.

11The side chamber doorway facing the free space contained a single north-facing doorway and a second south-facing doorway. The width of the free space was five cubits all around the perimeter.

12Now the building that faced the temple yard toward the west was 122 1/2 feet wide. The wall of the building was 8 3/4 feet thick on all sides, and the building's length was 157 1/2 feet.

12The building that faced the west side of the courtyard was 70 cubits wide, and the building's wall was five cubits thick all around. It was 90 cubits long.

13Then the man measured the temple; it was 175 feet long. In addition, the temple yard and the building, including its walls, were 175 feet long.

13Then he measured the Temple. It was 100 cubits long, and the courtyard, its building, and its walls were 100 cubits long.

14The width of the front of the temple along with the temple yard to the east was 175 feet.

14The front of the Temple and its east-facing courtyard were each 100 cubits long.

15Next he measured the length of the building facing the temple yard to the west, with its galleries on each side; it was 175 feet. The interior of the great hall and the porticoes of the court--

15Next, he measured 100 cubits as the length of the structure toward the front of the courtyard that stood behind it, where it housed a gallery on each side of it. Then he measured the Temple and the inner porticos of the courtyard,

16the thresholds, the beveled windows, and the balconies all around with their three levels opposite the threshold--were overlaid with wood on all sides. They were paneled from the ground to the windows (but the windows were covered),

16the thresholds, the shielded windows, and the surrounding three-storied galleries that stood opposite. From the ground to the shielded windows, they were paneled with wood all around,

17reaching to the top of the entrance, and as far as the inner temple and on the outside. On every wall all around, on the inside and outside, was a pattern

17including up to the doorway, up to the Temple (both within and without) and all around both sides of the inner wall, according to his measurement.

18carved with cherubim and palm trees. There was a palm tree between each pair of cherubim. Each cherub had two faces:

18There were carved cherubim and palm trees, alternating with a palm tree between a cherub, and each cherub had two faces,

19a human face turned toward the palm tree on one side, and a lion's face turned toward it on the other. They were carved throughout the temple on all sides.

19with a human face looking toward the palm tree on one side and a young lion's face looking toward the palm tree on the other side. These carvings extended all the way around the Temple,

20Cherubim and palm trees were carved from the ground to the top of the entrance and on the wall of the great hall.

20from the ground to above the doorway, as well as on the walls of the main sanctuary.

21The doorposts of the great hall were square, and the front of the sanctuary had the same appearance.

21The door posts of the main sanctuary were square. Each door post was identical in appearance to the others.

22The altar was made of wood, 5 1/4 feet high and 3 1/2 feet long. It had corners, and its length and sides were of wood. The man told me, "This is the table that stands before the LORD."

22The altar was made of wood, three cubits high and two cubits long. Its corners, base, and sides were of wood. He told me, "This table stands in the LORD's presence."

23The great hall and the sanctuary each had a double door,

23The nave and the sanctuary each were equipped with double doors.

24and each of the doors had two swinging panels. There were two panels for one door and two for the other.

24Each door had two sections mounted on hinges, for a total of two sections for one door and two sections for the other.

25Cherubim and palm trees were carved on the doors of the great hall like those carved on the walls. There was a wooden canopy outside, in front of the portico.

25The doors of the nave had carvings engraved on them, consisting of cherubim and palm trees identical to those on the walls. The front of the exterior porch was equipped with a wooden threshold.

26There were beveled windows and palm trees on both sides, on the side walls of the portico, the side rooms of the temple, and the canopies.

26Shielded windows and palm trees were visible on both sides; that is, on the sides of the porch, the side chambers of the Temple, and on its thresholds.
