Ezekiel 42
Reading Ezekiel chapter 42 in the World English Bible, public-domain text from 2000.
Verses 1–10
1 Then he brought me out into the outer court, the way towards the north. Then he brought me into the room that was opposite the separate place, and which was opposite the building towards the north.
2 Facing the length of one hundred cubits was the north door, and the width was fifty cubits.
3 Opposite the twenty cubits which belonged to the inner court, and opposite the pavement which belonged to the outer court, was gallery against gallery in the three storeys.
4 Before the rooms was a walk of ten cubits’ width inward, a way of one cubit; and their doors were towards the north.
5 Now the upper rooms were shorter; for the galleries took away from these more than from the lower and the middle in the building.
6 For they were in three storeys, and they didn’t have pillars as the pillars of the courts. Therefore the uppermost was set back more than the lowest and the middle from the ground.
7 The wall that was outside by the side of the rooms, towards the outer court before the rooms, was fifty cubits long.
8 For the length of the rooms that were in the outer court was fifty cubits. Behold, those facing the temple were one hundred cubits.
9 From under these rooms was the entry on the east side, as one goes into them from the outer court.
10 In the thickness of the wall of the court towards the east, before the separate place, and before the building, there were rooms.
