And lo! six men coming in out of the way of the upper gate which looketh toward the north even every man with his destructive weapon in his hand, and one man in their midst clothed with linen, having a scribes ink holder by his side, - so they came in and stood beside the altar of bronze.

And lo a wall on the outside of the house round about on every side, - and in the hand of the man, was the measuring reed six cubits by the cubit, and a handbreadth, so he measured the breadth of the enclosing-wall, one reed, and the height one reed.

Then saw I that the house had a height round about on every side, - the foundations of the side- chambers, a full reed, six cubits to the joining.

But on the day of the new moon, a young bullock without defect, - and six he-lambs and a ram without defect, shall they be;
