15 He measured the length of the building before the separate place which was at its back, and its galleries on the one side and on the other side, one hundred cubits from the inner temple, and the porches of the court 16 the thresholds, and the closed windows, and the galleries around on their three stories, opposite the threshold, with wood ceilings all around, and from the ground up to the windows, (now the windows were covered), 17 to the space above the door, even to the inner house, and outside, and by all the wall all around inside and outside, by measure. 18 It was made with cherubim and palm trees. A palm tree was between cherub and cherub, and every cherub had two faces; 19 so that there was the face of a man toward the palm tree on the one side, and the face of a young lion toward the palm tree on the other side. It was made like this through all the house all around. 20 Cherubim and palm trees were made from the ground to above the door. The wall of the temple was like this.

21 As for the temple, the door posts were squared. As for the face of the sanctuary, its appearance was as the appearance of the temple. 22 The altar was of wood, three cubits high, and its length two cubits. Its corners, its length, and its walls were of wood. He said to me, “This is the table that is before Yahweh.” 23 The temple and the sanctuary had two doors. 24 The doors had two leaves each, two turning leaves: two for the one door, and two leaves for the other. 25 There were made on them, on the doors of the temple, cherubim and palm trees, like those made on the walls. There was a threshold of wood on the face of the porch outside. 26 There were closed windows and palm trees on the one side and on the other side, on the sides of the porch. This is how the side rooms of the house and the thresholds were arranged.

15 And he measured the length of the (A)building [a]along the front of the (B)separate area behind it, with a [b](C)gallery on each side, a hundred cubits; he also measured the inner sanctuary and the porches of the courtyard. 16 The (D)thresholds, the [c](E)latticed windows, and the [d](F)galleries all around their (G)three stories, opposite the threshold, were (H)paneled with wood all around, and from the ground to the windows (but the windows were covered), 17 over the entrance, and to the inner house, and on the outside, and on all the wall all around inside and outside, by measurement. 18 It was [e]carved with (I)cherubim and (J)palm trees; and a palm tree was between cherub and cherub, and every cherub had two faces: 19 a (K)human face toward the palm tree on one side and a young (L)lion’s face toward the palm tree on the other side; they were [f]carved on all the house all around. 20 From the ground to above the entrance (M)cherubim and (N)palm trees were [g]carved, as well as on the wall of the sanctuary.

21 The (O)doorposts of the (P)sanctuary were square; as for the front of the inner [h]sanctuary, the appearance of one doorpost was like that of the other. 22 The (Q)altar was of wood, three cubits high, and its length two cubits; its corners, its [i]base, and its [j]sides were of wood. And he said to me, “This is the (R)table that is before the Lord.” 23 The (S)sanctuary and the inner [k](T)sanctuary each had a double (U)door. 24 Each of the doors had two leaves, two [l](V)swinging leaves; two leaves for one door and two leaves for the other. 25 Also there were [m]carved on them, on the doors of the main room, (W)cherubim and (X)palm trees like those [n]carved on the walls; and there was a [o](Y)threshold of wood on the front of the porch outside. 26 And there were [p](Z)latticed windows and (AA)palm trees on one side and on the other, on the sides of the (AB)porch; the same were on the (AC)side chambers of the house and the [q]thresholds.
