21st Century King James Version
44 And outside the inner gate were the chambers of the singers in the inner court, which was at the side of the North Gate, and their prospect was toward the south, one at the side of the East Gate having the prospect toward the north.
45 And he said unto me, “This chamber whose prospect is toward the south is for the priests, the keepers of the charge of the house.
46 And the chamber whose prospect is toward the north is for the priests, the keepers of the charge of the altar; these are the sons of Zadok among the sons of Levi, who come near to the Lord to minister unto Him.”
47 So he measured the court, a hundred cubits long and a hundred cubits broad, foursquare, and the altar that was before the house.
