2 And the width of the entryway was ten cubits; and the side walls of the entrance were five cubits on this side, and five cubits on this side. And he measured its length, forty cubits, and its width, twenty cubits.

3 And he went inside and measured the post for the door, two cubits; and the entrance, was six cubits; and the width of the entrance was seven cubits.

4 And he measured the length, twenty cubits, and the width, twenty cubits, to beyond the sanctuary. And he said to me: “This is the Holy of Holies.”

5 And he measured the wall of the temple, six cubits; and the width of each side chamber was four cubits, all around the temple on every side.

6 And the side chambers were side chamber above side chamber in three stories, thirty per level; and they rested on the ledges that were unto the house for the side chambers all around, to be supports; they were not fastened to the wall of the temple.

7 And it became wider, and went around above and above to the side chambers, because the turning round of the house went above and above round and round the house; upon thus the width of the structure was above, and the lowest went up to the highest through the middle.

8 And I saw for the temple an elevation round and round; the foundation of the side chambers was a full rod, six great cubits.

9 The thickness of the wall of the side chambers to the outside was five cubits, and also the open area between the side rooms that were of the house

10 and between the chambers was a width of twenty cubits all around the house, round and round.

11 And the doors of the side chambers were toward the open area, one door toward the north, and one door toward the south; and the width of the space that was open was five cubits all around.

12 And the building that was toward the face of the separating courtyard at the end 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 And he measured the temple, a hundred cubits long; and the separating courtyard, and the building, and its walls, a hundred cubits long.

14 And the width of the face of the temple, and the separating courtyard to the east, was a hundred cubits.

15 And he measured the length of the building to the face of the separating courtyard that was at its back, with its galleries on this side and on this side, a hundred cubits; the outer sanctuary, the inner, and the porches of the court,

16 their doorposts, and the beveled windows, and the galleries all around for the three of them, opposite the threshold, were paneled with wood round about, from the ground to the windows, and the windows were covered,

17 from above the door, and to the inner room, and on the outside; and on every wall round about, on the inside and on the outside, were measured patterns.

18 And it was made with cherubim and palm trees, a palm tree between a cherub and a cherub; and two faces were unto each cherub:

19 And the face of a man was toward the palm tree on this side, and the face of a young lion toward the palm tree on this side; so it was made throughout all the temple round and round.

20 From the floor to the space above the door, the cherubim and the palm trees were made, and the wall of the sanctuary.

21 The temple doorframe was square, and at the face of the sanctuary, the appearance was as the appearance.

22 An altar was of wood, three cubits high, and its length was two cubits; and its corners for it, and its length, and its sides were of wood. And he said to me, “This is the table that is before the face of YHWH.”

23 And two doors were for the temple and for the sanctuary.

24 And two door-panels were for the doors, two turning door-panels—two for the one door, and two door-panels for the other.

25 And were made onto them, onto the doors of the temple, cherubim and palm trees, as they were made on the walls; and a canopy of wood was at the face of the portico on the outside.

26 And beveled windows and palm trees were on this side and on this side, on the sides of the portico, and on the side chambers of the temple, and the canopies.
