The rooms for the priests
Then he brought me out into the outer court, the way to the north. And he brought me into the room opposite the separate place and opposite the building on the north. Before the length of a hundred cubits was the north door, and the width was fifty cubits. Opposite the twenty cubits of the inner court and opposite the paving of the outer court was gallery against gallery in three storeys. And before the rooms was a walkway ten cubits wide inside, a way of one cubit, and their doors faced north. Now the upper rooms were shorter, because the galleries were higher than these — higher than the lower and the middle ones of the building. Because they were in three storeys, and they didn't have pillars like the pillars of the courts. So the building was narrower than the lowest and the middle ones from the ground up. And the wall outside, running alongside the rooms towards the outer court before the rooms, was fifty cubits long. Because the length of the rooms in the outer court was fifty cubits. And look: before the temple it was a hundred cubits. And under these rooms was the entrance from the east side, as you go into them from the outer court. In the thickness of the wall of the court towards the east, before the separate place and before the building, were rooms. And the walkway before them looked like the rooms towards the north — as long as they were and as wide as they were, with all their ways out and the way they were made and their doors. And like the doors of the rooms towards the south, there was a door at the head of the way, the way straight before the wall towards the east, as you go into them. Then he said to me: The north rooms and the south rooms before the separate place are the holy rooms, where the priests who come near the LORD eat the most holy things. That's where they'll lay the most holy things, and the grain offering and the sin offering and the guilt offering. Because the place is holy. When the priests go in, they won't go out of the sanctuary into the outer court. But they'll lay the clothes they serve in there, because they're holy. And they'll put on other clothes and come near what's for the people.
Then he brought me out into the outer court, the way to the north. And he brought me into the room opposite the separate place and opposite the building on the north. In front of the length of a hundred cubits was the north door, and the width was fifty cubits. Opposite the twenty cubits of the inner court and opposite the paving of the outer court was gallery against gallery in three storeys. And in front of the rooms was a walkway ten cubits wide inside, a way of one cubit, and their doors faced north. Now the upper rooms were shorter, because the galleries were higher than these — higher than the lower and the middle ones of the building. Because they were in three storeys, and they didn't have pillars like the pillars of the courts. So the building was narrower than the lowest and the middle ones from the ground up. And the wall outside, running alongside the rooms towards the outer court in front of the rooms, was fifty cubits long. Because the length of the rooms in the outer court was fifty cubits. And look — in front of the temple it was a hundred cubits. And under these rooms was the entrance from the east side, as you go into them from the outer court. In the thickness of the wall of the court towards the east, in front of the separate place and in front of the building, were rooms. And the walkway in front of them looked like the rooms towards the north — as long as they were and as wide as they were, with all their ways out and the way they were made and their doors. And like the doors of the rooms towards the south, there was a door at the head of the way, the way straight in front of the wall towards the east, as you go into them.

When the priests go in, they won't go out of the holy place into the outer court. But they'll lay the clothes they serve in there, because they're holy. And they'll put on other clothes and come near what's for the people.
Then he brought me forth into the utter court, the way toward the north: and he brought me into the chamber that was over against the separate place, and which was before the building toward the north. Before the length of an hundred cubits was the north door, and the breadth was fifty cubits. Over against the twenty cubits which were for the inner court, and over against the pavement which was for the utter court, was gallery against gallery in three stories. And before the chambers was a walk of ten cubits breadth inward, a way of one cubit; and their doors toward the north. Now the upper chambers were shorter: for the galleries were higher than these, than the lower, and than the middlemost of the building. For they were in three stories, but had not pillars as the pillars of the courts: therefore the building was straitened more than the lowest and the middlemost from the ground. And the wall that was without over against the chambers, toward the utter court on the forepart of the chambers, the length thereof was fifty cubits. For the length of the chambers that were in the utter court was fifty cubits: and, lo, before the temple were an hundred cubits. And from under these chambers was the entry on the east side, as one goeth into them from the utter court. The chambers were in the thickness of the wall of the court toward the east, over against the separate place, and over against the building. And the way before them was like the appearance of the chambers which were toward the north, as long as they, and as broad as they: and all their goings out were both according to their fashions, and according to their doors. And according to the doors of the chambers that were toward the south was a door in the head of the way, even the way directly before the wall toward the east, as one entereth into them. Then said he unto me, The north chambers and the south chambers, which are before the separate place, they be holy chambers, where the priests that approach unto the LORD shall eat the most holy things: there shall they lay the most holy things, and the meat offering, and the sin offering, and the trespass offering; for the place is holy. When the priests enter therein, then shall they not go out of the holy place into the utter court, but there they shall lay their garments wherein they minister; for they are holy; and shall put on other garments, and shall approach to those things which are for the people.
Then he brought me out into the outer court, the way to the north. And he brought me into the room opposite the separate place and opposite the building on the north.
Then he brought me forth into the utter court, the way toward the north: and he brought me into the chamber that was over against the separate place, and which was before the building toward the north.

When the priests go in, they won't go out of the sanctuary into the outer court. But they'll lay the clothes they serve in there, because they're holy. And they'll put on other clothes and come near what's for the people.

The wall all round
Now when he'd finished measuring the inner house, he brought me out by the gate facing east and measured it all round. He measured the east side with the measuring reed, five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed all round. He measured the north side, five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed all round. He measured the south side, five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed. He turned about to the west side and measured five hundred reeds with the measuring reed. He measured it on all four sides. It had a wall around it, five hundred reeds long and five hundred broad, to make a separation between the sanctuary and the profane place.

Now when he had made an end of measuring the inner house, he brought me forth toward the gate whose prospect is toward the east, and measured it round about.
