Ezekiel 40:2-11
English Standard Version
Chapter 40
2In visions of God he brought me to the land of Israel, and set me down on a very high mountain, on which was a structure like a city to the south. 3When he brought me there, behold, there was a man whose appearance was like bronze, with a linen cord and a measuring reed in his hand. And he was standing in the gateway. 4And the man said to me, "Son of man, look with your eyes, and hear with your ears, and set your heart upon all that I shall show you, for you were brought here in order that I might show it to you. Declare all that you see to the house of Israel."
5And behold, there was a wall all around the outside of the temple area, and the length of the measuring reed in the man 's hand was six long cubits, each being a cubit and a handbreadth in length. So he measured the thickness of the wall, one reed; and the height, one reed.
6Then he went into the gateway facing east, going up its steps, and measured the threshold of the gate, one reed deep.
7And the side rooms, one reed long and one reed broad; and the space between the side rooms, five cubits; and the threshold of the gate by the vestibule of the gate at the inner end, one reed.
8Then he measured the vestibule of the gateway, on the inside, one reed.
9Then he measured the vestibule of the gateway, eight cubits; and its jambs, two cubits; and the vestibule of the gate was at the inner end.
10And there were three side rooms on either side of the east gate. The three were of the same size, and the jambs on either side were of the same size.
11Then he measured the width of the opening of the gateway, ten cubits; and the length of the gateway, thirteen cubits.
