Ezekiel 40:24-27
New King James Version
The Southern Gateway
24 After that he brought me toward the south, and there a gateway was facing south; and he measured its gateposts and archways according to these same measurements. 25 There were windows in it and in its archways all around like those windows; its length was fifty cubits and its width twenty-five cubits. 26 Seven steps led up to it, and its archway was in front of them; and it had palm trees on its gateposts, one on this side and one on that side. 27 There was also a gateway on the inner court, facing south; and he measured from gateway to gateway toward the south, one hundred cubits.

The Gate to the South
24 And then he took me toward the south,[a] and look, a gate toward the south,[b] and he measured its pilasters and its porticos; they had measurements just like the others.[c] 25 And there were for it windows and for its porticos all the way around it[d] like these windows; fifty cubits[e] long and twenty-five cubits[f] wide. 26 And seven steps were going up to it and its porticos before them.[g] And it had palm tree images[h] all along[i] its pilasters. 27 And there was to the way of the south[j] a gate for the inner courtyard, and he measured from gate to the gate on the way of the south, a hundred cubits.[k]
