	BISHOPS Bishops' Bible of 1568	ESV English Standard Version	NIV New International Version
1	In the fyue and twentie yere of our captiuitie, in the beginning of the yere, the tenth day of the moneth, that is the fourtenth yere after the citie was smitten, the selfe same day came the hand of the Lorde vpon me, & brought me thyther:	In the twenty-fifth year of our exile, at the beginning of the year, on the tenth day of the month, in the fourteenth year after the city was struck down, on that very day, the hand of the LORD was upon me, and he brought me to the city.	In the twenty-fifth year of our exile, at the beginning of the year, on the tenth of the month, in the fourteenth year after the fall of the city—on that very day the hand of the LORD was on me and he took me there.
2	Euen into the land of Israel brought he me in the visions of god, & set me downe vpon a marueylous hye mountayne, wherevpon there was as it had ben the buylding of a citie towarde the south.	In visions of God he brought me to the land of Israel, and set me down on a very high mountain, on which was a structure like a city to the south.	In visions of God he took me to the land of Israel and set me on a very high mountain, on whose south side were some buildings that looked like a city.
3	Thyther he caried me, and behold there was a man, whose similitude was like brasse, whiche had a twisted line of flax in his hand, and a cane to measure with: and he stoode in the doore.	When he brought me there, behold, there was a man whose appearance was like bronze, with a linen cord and a measuring reed in his hand. And he was standing in the gateway.	He took me there, and I saw a man whose appearance was like bronze; he was standing in the gateway with a linen cord and a measuring rod in his hand.
4	And that man sayde vnto me: Thou sonne of man, marke well with thyne eyes, hearken to with thyne eares, and fasten it in thy heart, whatsoeuer I shal shewe thee: for to the intent that they might be shewed thee, therfore art thou brought hyther, and whatsoeuer thou seest, thou shalt certifie the house of Israel therof.	And the man said to me, “Son of man, look with your eyes, and hear with your ears, and set your heart upon all that I shall show you, for you were brought here in order that I might show it to you. Declare all that you see to the house of Israel.”	The man said to me, “Son of man, look carefully and listen closely and pay attention to everything I am going to show you, for that is why you have been brought here. Tell the people of Israel everything you see.”
5	Behold, there was a wall on the outside of the house, rounde about: the cane to measure with that he had in his hande, was sixe cubites long by the cubite & a hande breadth: So he measured the breadth of the building with one cane, and the heyght with one cane.	And behold, there was a wall all around the outside of the temple area, and the length of the measuring reed in the man’s hand was six long cubits, each being a cubit and a handbreadth in length. So he measured the thickness of the wall, one reed; and the height, one reed.	I saw a wall completely surrounding the temple area. The length of the measuring rod in the man’s hand was six long cubits, each of which was a cubit and a handbreadth. He measured the wall; it was one measuring rod thick and one rod high.
6	Then came he to the gate which loketh toward the east, and went vp the staires therof, and measured the post of the gate one cane broade, and the other post of the gate one cane broade.	Then he went into the gateway facing east, going up its steps, and measured the threshold of the gate, one reed deep.	Then he went to the east gate. He climbed its steps and measured the threshold of the gate; it was one rod deep.
7	And euery chamber was one cane long and one cane broade, and betweene the chambers were fiue cubites: and the post of the gate by the porche of the gate within, was one cane.	And the side rooms, one reed long and one reed broad; and the space between the side rooms, five cubits; and the threshold of the gate by the vestibule of the gate at the inner end, one reed.	The alcoves for the guards were one rod long and one rod wide, and the projecting walls between the alcoves were five cubits thick. And the threshold of the gate next to the portico facing the temple was one rod deep.
8	He measured also the porche of the gate within one cane.	Then he measured the vestibule of the gateway, on the inside, one reed.	Then he measured the portico of the gateway;
9	Then measured he the porche of the gate eyght cubites: & the pentises therof two cubites, and the porche of the gate was inwarde.	Then he measured the vestibule of the gateway, eight cubits; and its jambs, two cubits; and the vestibule of the gate was at the inner end.	it was eight cubits deep and its jambs were two cubits thick. The portico of the gateway faced the temple.
10	And the chambers of the gate eastward, were three on this side, & three on that side: they three were of one measure, & the pentises had one measure on this side, and one measure on that side.	And there were three side rooms on either side of the east gate. The three were of the same size, and the jambs on either side were of the same size.	Inside the east gate were three alcoves on each side; the three had the same measurements, and the faces of the projecting walls on each side had the same measurements.
11	After this, he measured the breadth of the entrie of the gate ten cubites, and the heyght of the gate thirteene cubites.	Then he measured the width of the opening of the gateway, ten cubits; and the length of the gateway, thirteen cubits.	Then he measured the width of the entrance of the gateway; it was ten cubits and its length was thirteen cubits.
12	The space also before the chambers was one cubite on this side and the space one cubite on that side: & the chambers sixe cubites on this side, and sixe cubites on that side.	There was a barrier before the side rooms, one cubit on either side. And the side rooms were six cubits on either side.	In front of each alcove was a wall one cubit high, and the alcoves were six cubits square.
13	He measured the gate from the roofe of a chamber to his owne roofe the breadth of fiue and twentie cubites: doore against doore.	Then he measured the gate from the ceiling of the one side room to the ceiling of the other, a breadth of twenty-five cubits; the openings faced each other.	Then he measured the gateway from the top of the rear wall of one alcove to the top of the opposite one; the distance was twenty-five cubits from one parapet opening to the opposite one.
14	He made frontes also of threescore cubites, euen vnto the front of the court rounde about the gate.	He measured also the vestibule, sixty cubits. And around the vestibule of the gateway was the court.	He measured along the faces of the projecting walls all around the inside of the gateway—sixty cubits. The measurement was up to the portico facing the courtyard.
15	And from the forefront of the entrie of the gate, vnto the forefront of the gate within were fiftie cubites.	From the front of the gate at the entrance to the front of the inner vestibule of the gate was fifty cubits.	The distance from the entrance of the gateway to the far end of its portico was fifty cubits.
16	And there were narowe windowes in the chambers, and in the frontes within the gate rounde about: & so in the arches: and the windowes went rounde about within, and vpon the frontes were paulme trees.	And the gateway had windows all around, narrowing inwards toward the side rooms and toward their jambs, and likewise the vestibule had windows all around inside, and on the jambs were palm trees.	The alcoves and the projecting walls inside the gateway were surmounted by narrow parapet openings all around, as was the portico; the openings all around faced inward. The faces of the projecting walls were decorated with palm trees.
17	Then brought he me into the outward court, where as were chambers, and a pauement made for the court rounde about: thirtie chambers were vpon the pauement.	Then he brought me into the outer court. And behold, there were chambers and a pavement, all around the court. Thirty chambers faced the pavement.	Then he brought me into the outer court. There I saw some rooms and a pavement that had been constructed all around the court; there were thirty rooms along the pavement.
18	And the pauement was by the side of the gates, ouer against the length of the gates: and the pauement was beneath.	And the pavement ran along the side of the gates, corresponding to the length of the gates. This was the lower pavement.	It abutted the sides of the gateways and was as wide as they were long; this was the lower pavement.
19	Then he measured the breadth fro the forefront of the lower gate without, vnto the forefront of the court within, a hundreth cubites eastwarde and northwarde.	Then he measured the distance from the inner front of the lower gate to the outer front of the inner court, a hundred cubits on the east side and on the north side.	Then he measured the distance from the inside of the lower gateway to the outside of the inner court; it was a hundred cubits on the east side as well as on the north.
20	And the gate in the outward court that loked toward the north, measured he after the length and breadth therof.	As for the gate that faced toward the north, belonging to the outer court, he measured its length and its breadth.	Then he measured the length and width of the north gate, leading into the outer court.
21	And the chambers therof were three on this side, and three on that side: and the frontes therof, and the arches thereof were after the measure of the first gate: the length thereof was fiftie cubites, and the breadth fiue and twentie cubites.	Its side rooms, three on either side, and its jambs and its vestibule were of the same size as those of the first gate. Its length was fifty cubits, and its breadth twenty-five cubits.	Its alcoves—three on each side—its projecting walls and its portico had the same measurements as those of the first gateway. It was fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.
22	And their windowes and their arches with their paulme trees were after the measure of the gate that loketh toward the east: and the goyng vp vnto it had seuen steppes, and the arches thereof were before them.	And its windows, its vestibule, and its palm trees were of the same size as those of the gate that faced toward the east. And by seven steps people would go up to it, and find its vestibule before them.	Its openings, its portico and its palm tree decorations had the same measurements as those of the gate facing east. Seven steps led up to it, with its portico opposite them.
23	And the gate of the inner court stoode ouer against the gate towarde the north and toward the east, and he measured from gate to gate a hundreth cubites.	And opposite the gate on the north, as on the east, was a gate to the inner court. And he measured from gate to gate, a hundred cubits.	There was a gate to the inner court facing the north gate, just as there was on the east. He measured from one gate to the opposite one; it was a hundred cubits.
24	After that he brought me towarde the south, where there stoode a gate towarde the south, and he measured the frontes therof and the arches therof according to those measures.	And he led me toward the south, and behold, there was a gate on the south. And he measured its jambs and its vestibule; they had the same size as the others.	Then he led me to the south side and I saw the south gate. He measured its jambs and its portico, and they had the same measurements as the others.
25	And there were windowes in it, and in the arches therof round about like these windowes: the length was fiftie cubites, & the breadth fiue and twentie cubites.	Both it and its vestibule had windows all around, like the windows of the others. Its length was fifty cubits, and its breadth twenty-five cubits.	The gateway and its portico had narrow openings all around, like the openings of the others. It was fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.
26	And there were seuen steppes at the goyng vp to it, and the arches therof before them: & it had paulme trees, one on this side, and an other on that side, vpon the front therof.	And there were seven steps leading up to it, and its vestibule was before them, and it had palm trees on its jambs, one on either side.	Seven steps led up to it, with its portico opposite them; it had palm tree decorations on the faces of the projecting walls on each side.
27	And there was a gate in the inner court towarde the south, and he measured from gate to gate toward the south, a hundred cubites.	And there was a gate on the south of the inner court. And he measured from gate to gate toward the south, a hundred cubits.	The inner court also had a gate facing south, and he measured from this gate to the outer gate on the south side; it was a hundred cubits.
28	So he brought me into the inner court thorowe the south gate, and he measured the south gate according to those measures.	Then he brought me to the inner court through the south gate, and he measured the south gate. It was of the same size as the others.	Then he brought me into the inner court through the south gate, and he measured the south gate; it had the same measurements as the others.
29	And the chambers thereof, the frontes therof, and the arches thereof, according to these measures, and wyndowes in it: and in the arches thereof round about, fiftie cubites long, and fiue and twentie cubites broade.	Its side rooms, its jambs, and its vestibule were of the same size as the others, and both it and its vestibule had windows all around. Its length was fifty cubits, and its breadth twenty-five cubits.	Its alcoves, its projecting walls and its portico had the same measurements as the others.

30	And the arches round about were fiue and twentie cubites long, and fiue cubites broade.	And there were vestibules all around, twenty-five cubits long and five cubits broad.	(The porticoes of the gateways around the inner court were twenty-five cubits wide and five cubits deep.)
31	And the arches therof were toward the vtter court, and paulme trees vpon the frontes therof, & the goyng vp to it had eyght steppes.	Its vestibule faced the outer court, and palm trees were on its jambs, and its stairway had eight steps.

It was of the same size as the others.	Then he brought me to the inner court on the east side, and he measured the gateway; it had the same measurements as the others.

38	And a chamber and the entrie thereof was vnder the frotes of the gates: there they washed the burnt offeringes.	There was a chamber with its door in the vestibule of the gate, where the burnt offering was to be washed.	A room with a doorway was by the portico in each of the inner gateways, where the burnt offerings were washed.
39	And in the porche of the gate stoode two tables on this side, and two tables on that side, vpon the whiche they slue the burnt offering, and the sinne offering, and the trespasse offering.	And in the vestibule of the gate were two tables on either side, on which the burnt offering and the sin offering and the guilt offering were to be slaughtered.	In the portico of the gateway were two tables on each side, on which the burnt offerings, sin offerings and guilt offerings were slaughtered.
40	And at the side without the steppes at the entrie of the north gate stoode two tables, and on the other side which was at the porche of the gate were two tables.	And off to the side, on the outside as one goes up to the entrance of the north gate, were two tables; and off to the other side of the vestibule of the gate were two tables.	By the outside wall of the portico of the gateway, near the steps at the entrance of the north gateway were two tables, and on the other side of the steps were two tables.
41	Foure tables were on this side, and foure on that side by the side of the gate, euen eyght tables, wherevpon they slue their sacrifices.	Four tables were on either side of the gate, eight tables, on which to slaughter.	So there were four tables on one side of the gateway and four on the other—eight tables in all—on which the sacrifices were slaughtered.
42	And the foure tables were of hewen stone for the burnt offring, of a cubite & a halfe long, and a cubite and a halfe broade, and one cubite hye, wherevpon were layde the instrumentes wherwith they slue the burnt offring, and the sacrifice.

43	And within there were hookes one hand breadth long fastened rounde about, and vpon the tables was the offering fleshe.	And hooks, a handbreadth long, were fastened all around within. And on the tables the flesh of the offering was to be laid.	And double-pronged hooks, each a handbreadth long, were attached to the wall all around. The tables were for the flesh of the offerings.
44	And without the inner gate were the chambers of the singers in the inwarde court, whiche was at the side of the north gate, and their prospect was towarde the south: and one was at the side of the east gate, hauing the prospect towarde the north.	On the outside of the inner gateway there were two chambers in the inner court, one at the side of the north gate facing south, the other at the side of the south gate facing north.	Outside the inner gate, within the inner court, were two rooms, one at the side of the north gate and facing south, and another at the side of the south gate and facing north.
45	And he sayde vnto me: This chamber, whose prospect is towarde the south, is for the priestes that haue charge to kepe the house.	And he said to me, “This chamber that faces south is for the priests who have charge of the temple,	He said to me, “The room facing south is for the priests who guard the temple,
46	And the chamber whose prospect is towarde the north is for the priestes that haue charge to kepe the aulter: these are the sonnes of Sadoc, which of the sonnes of Leui come neare to the Lorde, to minister vnto him.	and the chamber that faces north is for the priests who have charge of the altar. These are the sons of Zadok, who alone among the sons of Levi may come near to the LORD to minister to him.”	and the room facing north is for the priests who guard the altar. These are the sons of Zadok, who are the only Levites who may draw near to the LORD to minister before him.”
47	So he measured the court, which had in length a hundred cubites, and a hundred in breadth, euen fouresquare: and the aulter stoode before the house.	And he measured the court, a hundred cubits long and a hundred cubits broad, a square. And the altar was in front of the temple.	Then he measured the court: It was square—a hundred cubits long and a hundred cubits wide. And the altar was in front of the temple.
48	And he brought me to the porche of the house, and measured the porche fiue cubites on this side, and fiue cubites on that side: and the breadth of the gate was three cubites on this side, and three cubites on that side.	Then he brought me to the vestibule of the temple and measured the jambs of the vestibule, five cubits on either side. And the breadth of the gate was fourteen cubits, and the sidewalls of the gate were three cubits on either side.	He brought me to the portico of the temple and measured the jambs of the portico; they were five cubits wide on either side. The width of the entrance was fourteen cubits and its projecting walls were three cubits wide on either side.
49	The length of the porche was twentie cubites, the breadth eleuen cubites, and by steps went men vp to it: by the frontes also were pillers, one on this side, and another on that side.	The length of the vestibule was twenty cubits, and the breadth twelve cubits, and people would go up to it by ten steps. And there were pillars beside the jambs, one on either side.	The portico was twenty cubits wide, and twelve cubits from front to back. It was reached by a flight of stairs, and there were pillars on each side of the jambs.
