'Measure' in the Bible

Then a measuring rod like a staff was given to me, and I was told, "Get up and measure the temple of God, and the altar, and the ones who worship there.

But do not measure the outer courtyard of the temple; leave it out, because it has been given to the Gentiles, and they will trample on the holy city for forty-two months.

The angel who spoke to me had a golden measuring rod with which to measure the city and its foundation stones and wall.
