Ezekiel 40:24-27

New International Reader's Version

The South Gate

²⁴ Then the man led me to the south side of the courtyard. There I saw the south gate. He measured its doorposts and porch. They measured the same as the others. ²⁵ The gateway and its porch had narrow openings all around. The openings were the same as the others had. The side walls and porch measured 88 feet long and 44 feet wide. ²⁶ Seven steps led up to it. Its porch was across from them. The front of each side wall was decorated with a palm tree. ²⁷ The inner courtyard also had a gate that faced south. The man measured from this gate to the outer gate on the south side. The total was 175 feet.
