⁴⁶ And the chamber facing toward the north shall be for the priests, the keepers of the charge of the altar; these are the sons of Zadok who are called from the sons of Levi to minister to the LORD.

⁴⁷ So he measured the court, one hundred cubits long and one hundred cubits broad, foursquare; and the altar that was before the house.
