Ezekiel 40:38-43

International Standard Version

³⁸ There was a chamber with a doorway by the side pillars next to the gate where they prepare^[a] the burnt offerings.

³⁹ In the porch leading in front of the gate there were two tables on either side for slaughtering burnt offerings, sin offerings, and guilt offerings, ⁴⁰ and on the outer side, approaching the northern gateway, there were two tables, as well as two tables on the opposite side of the porch in front of the gate. ⁴¹ In that way, there were four tables on each side in front of the gate, for a total of eight tables for use in slaughtering the offerings.^[b]

⁴² There were four tables carved from stone for the burnt offering, each one and a half cubits^[c] long, one and a half cubits^[d] wide, and one cubit^[e] high, on which the instruments are laid for slaughtering burnt offerings and sacrifices. ⁴³ Double hooks, a single handbreadth^[f] in length, were installed all around in this portion of^[g] the temple area.
