The Inner Court
28 He brought me to the inner court by the south gate. And he measured the south gate according to these same measurements. 29 And its little chambers and its posts and its arches were according to these same measurements. And there were windows in it and in its arches all around. It was fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide. 30 The arches all around were twenty-five cubits long and five cubits wide. 31 Its arches faced the outer court. And palm tree ornaments were on its posts. And its staircase had eight steps.
32 He brought me into the inner court facing east. And he measured the gate according to these same measurements. 33 Its little chambers and its posts and its arches were according to these same measurements. And there were windows in it and in its arches all around. It was fifty cubits[a] long and twenty-five cubits wide. 34 Its arches faced the outer court. And palm tree ornaments were on its posts, on this side and on that side. And its staircase had eight steps.
35 He brought me to the north gate and measured it according to these same measurements; 36 its little chambers, its posts, and its arches, and it had windows all around: the length was fifty cubits, and the width twenty-five cubits. 37 Its posts faced the outer court. And palm tree ornaments were on its posts, on this side and on that side. And its staircase had eight steps.
