And he took me into the inner square, and there were two rooms in the inner square, one at the side of the north doorway, facing south; and one at the side of the south doorway, facing north.

And he took the measure of the open square, a hundred cubits long and a hundred cubits wide, being square; and the altar was in front of the house.

Then he took me to the covered way before the house, and took the measure of its uprights, five cubits on one side and five cubits on the other: and the doorway was fourteen cubits wide; and the side-walls of the doorway were three cubits on one side and three cubits on the other.

And he took me to the Temple, and took the measure of the uprights, six cubits wide on one side and six cubits wide on the other.

And he took me out into the inner square in the direction of the north: and he took me into the rooms which were opposite the separate place and opposite the building to the north.

And the higher rooms were shorter: for the covered ways took up more space from these than from the lower and middle rooms.

(And he took me) to the south, and in front of the separate place and in front of the building there were rooms.

And he went round and took the measure of it on the north side with the measuring rod, five hundred, measured with the rod all round.

I went on looking till the seats of kings were placed, and one like a very old man took his seat: his clothing was white as snow, and the hair of his head was like clean wool; his seat was flames of fire and its wheels burning fire.
