The Two Witnesses

11 Then I was given a measuring rod like a staff, and I was told, “Come and measure the temple of God and the altar and those who worship there,^{(A) 2} but do not measure the court outside the temple; leave that out, for it is given over to the nations, and they will trample over the holy city for forty-two months.^(B)

Third Vision: The Man with a Measuring Line

2 ^[a]I looked up and saw a man with a measuring line in his hand.^(A)

41 Then he brought me to the nave and measured the posts; on each side six cubits was the depth of the posts.^{[a](A) 2} The width of the entrance was ten cubits, and the sidewalls of the entrance were five cubits on either side. He measured the length of the nave, forty cubits, and its width, twenty cubits.^{(B) 3} Then he went into the inner room and measured the posts of the entrance, two cubits, and the width of the entrance, six cubits, and the sidewalls^[b] of the entrance, seven cubits.^{(C) 4} He measured the depth of the room, twenty cubits, and its width, twenty cubits, beyond the nave. And he said to me, “This is the most holy place.”^(D)

⁵ Then he measured the wall of the temple, six cubits thick, and the width of the side chambers, four cubits, all around the temple.

³ You shall put in it the ark of the covenant, and you shall screen the ark with the curtain.^{(A) 4} You shall bring in the table and arrange its setting, and you shall bring in the lampstand and set up its lamps. ⁵ You shall put the golden altar for incense before the ark of the covenant and set up the screen for the entrance of the tabernacle.
