And the gate of the inner court was over against the gate toward the north ,
and toward the east ;
and he measured from gate to gate an hundred cubits .
*
After that he brought me toward the south ,
and behold a gate toward the south :
and he measured the posts thereof and the arches thereof according to these measures .
*
And there were windows in it and in the arches thereof round about ,
like those windows :
the length was fifty cubits ,
and the breadth five and twenty cubits .
*
And there were seven steps to go up to it ,
and the arches thereof were before them :
and it had palm trees ,
one on this side ,
and another on that side ,
upon the posts thereof .
*
And there was a gate in the inner court toward the south :
and he measured from gate to gate toward the south an hundred cubits .
*
And he brought me to the inner court by the south gate sha #
ar #:
and he measured the south gate according to these measures ;
*
And the little chambers thereof ,
and the posts thereof ,
and the arches thereof ,
according to these measures :
and there were windows in it and in the arches thereof round about :
it was fifty cubits long ,
and five and twenty cubits broad .
*
And the arches round about were five and twenty cubits long ,
and five cubits broad .
*
And the arches thereof were toward the utter court ;
and palm trees were upon the posts thereof :
and the going up to it had eight steps ma #

*
And he brought me into the inner court toward the east :
and he measured the gate according to these measures .
*
And the little chambers thereof ,
and the posts thereof ,
and the arches thereof ,
were according to these measures :
and there were windows therein and in the arches thereof round about :
it was fifty cubits long ,
and five and twenty cubits broad .
*
And the arches thereof were toward the outward court ;
and palm trees were upon the posts thereof ,
on this side ,
and on that side :
and the going up to it had eight steps ma #
alah #.
*
And he brought me to the north gate sha #
ar #,
and measured it according to these measures ;
*
The little chambers thereof ,
the posts thereof ,
and the arches thereof ,
and the windows to it round about :
the length was fifty cubits ,
and the breadth five and twenty cubits .
*
And the posts thereof were toward the utter court ;
and palm trees were upon the posts thereof ,
on this side ,
and on that side :
and the going up to it had eight steps ma #
alah #.
*
And the chambers and the entries thereof were by the posts of the gates sha #
ar #,
where they washed the burnt offering .
*
And in the porch of the gate were two tables on this side ,
and two tables on that side ,
to slay thereon the burnt offering and the sin offering and the trespass offering .
*
And at the side without ,
as one goeth up to the entry of the north gate sha #
ar #,
were two tables ;
and on the other side ,
which was at the porch of the gate sha #
ar #,
were two tables .
*
Four tables were on this side ,
and four tables on that side ,
by the side of the gate sha #
ar #;
eight tables ,
whereupon they slew their sacrifices .
*
And the four tables were of hewn stone for the burnt offering ,
of a cubit and an half long ,
and a cubit and an half broad ,
and one cubit high :
whereupon also they laid the instruments wherewith they slew the burnt offering and the sacrifice .
*
And within were hooks ,
an hand broad ,
fastened round about :
and upon the tables was the flesh of the offering .
*
And without the inner gate were the chambers of the singers in the inner court ,
which was at the side of the north gate sha #
ar #;
and their prospect was toward the south :
one at the side of the east gate having the prospect toward the north .
*
And he said unto me ,
This chamber ,
whose prospect is toward the south ,
is for the priests ,
the keepers of the charge of the house .
*
And the chamber whose prospect is toward the north is for the priests ,
the keepers of the charge of the altar :
these are the sons of Zadok among the sons of Levi ,
which come near to the LORD to minister unto him .
*
So he measured the court ,
an hundred cubits long ,
and an hundred cubits broad ,
foursquare ;
and the altar that was before the house .
