Berean Study BibleNew International Version
1Then the man led me out northward into the outer court, and he brought me to the group of chambers opposite the temple courtyard and the outer wall on the north side.1Then the man led me northward into the outer court and brought me to the rooms opposite the temple courtyard and opposite the outer wall on the north side.
2The building with the door facing north was a hundred cubits long and fifty cubits wide.2The building whose door faced north was a hundred cubits long and fifty cubits wide.
3Gallery faced gallery in three levels opposite the twenty cubits that belonged to the inner court and opposite the pavement that belonged to the outer court.3Both in the section twenty cubits from the inner court and in the section opposite the pavement of the outer court, gallery faced gallery at the three levels.
4In front of the chambers was an inner walkway ten cubits wide and a hundred cubits long. Their doors were on the north.4In front of the rooms was an inner passageway ten cubits wide and a hundred cubits long. Their doors were on the north.
5Now the upper chambers were smaller because the galleries took more space from the chambers on the lower and middle floors of the building.5Now the upper rooms were narrower, for the galleries took more space from them than from the rooms on the lower and middle floors of the building.
6For they were arranged in three stories, and unlike the courts, they had no pillars. So the upper chambers were set back further than the lower and middle floors.6The rooms on the top floor had no pillars, as the courts had; so they were smaller in floor space than those on the lower and middle floors.
7An outer wall in front of the chambers was fifty cubits long and ran parallel to the chambers and the outer court.7There was an outer wall parallel to the rooms and the outer court; it extended in front of the rooms for fifty cubits.
8For the chambers on the outer court were fifty cubits long, while those facing the temple were a hundred cubits long.8While the row of rooms on the side next to the outer court was fifty cubits long, the row on the side nearest the sanctuary was a hundred cubits long.
9And below these chambers was the entrance on the east side as one enters them from the outer court.9The lower rooms had an entrance on the east side as one enters them from the outer court.
10On the south side along the length of the wall of the outer court were chambers adjoining the courtyard and opposite the building,10On the south side along the length of the wall of the outer court, adjoining the temple courtyard and opposite the outer wall, were rooms
11with a passageway in front of them, just like the chambers that were on the north. They had the same length and width, with similar exits and dimensions.11with a passageway in front of them. These were like the rooms on the north; they had the same length and width, with similar exits and dimensions. Similar to the doorways on the north
12And corresponding to the doors of the chambers that were facing south, there was a door in front of the walkway that was parallel to the wall extending eastward.12were the doorways of the rooms on the south. There was a doorway at the beginning of the passageway that was parallel to the corresponding wall extending eastward, by which one enters the rooms.
13Then the man said to me, “The north and south chambers facing the temple courtyard are the holy chambers where the priests who approach the LORD will eat the most holy offerings. There they will place the most holy offerings—the grain offerings, the sin offerings, and the guilt offerings—for the place is holy.13Then he said to me, "The north and south rooms facing the temple courtyard are the priests' rooms, where the priests who approach the LORD will eat the most holy offerings. There they will put the most holy offerings--the grain offerings, the sin offerings and the guilt offerings--for the place is holy.
14Once the priests have entered the holy area, they must not go out into the outer court until they have left behind the garments in which they minister, for these are holy. They are to put on other clothes before they approach the places that are for the people.”14Once the priests enter the holy precincts, they are not to go into the outer court until they leave behind the garments in which they minister, for these are holy. They are to put on other clothes before they go near the places that are for the people."
15Now when the man had finished measuring the interior of the temple area, he led me out by the gate that faced east, and he measured the area all around:15When he had finished measuring what was inside the temple area, he led me out by the east gate and measured the area all around:
16With a measuring rod he measured the east side to be five hundred cubits long.16He measured the east side with the measuring rod; it was five hundred cubits.
17He measured the north side to be five hundred cubits long.17He measured the north side; it was five hundred cubits by the measuring rod.
18He measured the south side to be five hundred cubits long.18He measured the south side; it was five hundred cubits by the measuring rod.
19And he came around and measured the west side to be five hundred cubits long.19Then he turned to the west side and measured; it was five hundred cubits by the measuring rod.
20So he measured the area on all four sides. It had a wall all around, five hundred cubits long and five hundred cubits wide, to separate the holy from the common.20So he measured the area on all four sides. It had a wall around it, five hundred cubits long and five hundred cubits wide, to separate the holy from the common.
