28 Then he brought me to the inner courtyard by the south gate; and he measured the south gate (A)according to those same measurements. 29 Its (B)guardrooms also, its side pillars, and its (C)porches were according to those same measurements. And [a]the gate and its porches had (D)windows all around; it was (E)fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide. 30 There were (F)porches all around, twenty-five cubits long and five cubits wide. 31 And its porches were toward the outer courtyard; and (G)palm tree decorations were on its side pillars, and its stairway had eight (H)steps.
32 Then he brought me into the (I)inner courtyard toward the east. And he measured the gate (J)according to those same measurements. 33 Its (K)guardrooms also, its side pillars, and its porches were according to those same measurements.

Gateways to the Inner Courtyard
28 Then the man took me to the south gateway leading into the inner courtyard. He measured it, and it had the same measurements as the other gateways. 29 Its guard alcoves, dividing walls, and entry room were the same size as those in the others. It also had windows along its walls and in the entry room. And like the others, the gateway passage was 87 1⁄2 feet long and 43 3⁄4 feet wide. 30 (The entry rooms of the gateways leading into the inner courtyard were 14 feet[a] across and 43 3⁄4 feet wide.) 31 The entry room to the south gateway faced into the outer courtyard. It had palm tree decorations on its columns, and there were eight steps leading to its entrance.
32 Then he took me to the east gateway leading to the inner courtyard. He measured it, and it had the same measurements as the other gateways. 33 Its guard alcoves, dividing walls, and entry room were the same size as those of the others, and there were windows along the walls and in the entry room. The gateway passage measured 87 1⁄2 feet long and 43 3⁄4 feet wide. 34 Its entry room faced into the outer courtyard. It had palm tree decorations on its columns, and there were eight steps leading to its entrance.
35 Then he took me around to the north gateway leading to the inner courtyard. He measured it, and it had the same measurements as the other gateways. 36 The guard alcoves, dividing walls, and entry room of this gateway had the same measurements as in the others and the same window arrangements. The gateway passage measured 87 1⁄2 feet long and 43 3⁄4 feet wide. 37 Its entry room[b] faced into the outer courtyard, and it had palm tree decorations on the columns.
