³ Facing ^(A)the twenty cubits that belonged to the inner court, and facing ^(B)the pavement that belonged to the outer court, was ^(C)gallery^[a] against gallery in three stories.

¹⁵ Then he measured the length of ^(A)the building facing the yard that was at the back and ^(B)its galleries^[a] on either side, a hundred cubits.

The inside of the nave and the vestibules of the court, ^16 (C)the thresholds and ^(D)the narrow windows and the galleries all around the three of them, opposite the threshold, were paneled with wood all around, from the floor up to the windows (now the windows were covered),

^10 (A)other chambers was a breadth of ^(B)twenty cubits all around the temple on every side.

⁵ Now the upper chambers were narrower, for the galleries took more away from them than from the lower and middle chambers of the building.

The Outer Court

¹⁷ Then he brought me into ^(A)the outer court. And behold, there were ^(B)chambers and a ^(C)pavement, all around the court. ^(D)Thirty chambers faced the pavement. ¹⁸ And the pavement ran along the side of the gates, corresponding to the length of the gates. This was the lower pavement.

³ When all the people of Israel saw the fire come down and the glory of the Lord on the temple, they bowed down with their faces to the ground on the pavement and worshiped and gave thanks to the Lord, saying, “For he is good, ^(A)for his steadfast love endures forever.”
