Ezekiel 41:5-11
World English Bible
5 Then he measured the wall of the house, six cubits; and the width of every side room, four cubits, all around the house on every side. 6 The side rooms were in three stories, one over another, and thirty in order. They entered into the wall which belonged to the house for the side rooms all around, that they might be supported, and not penetrate the wall of the house. 7 The side rooms were wider on the higher levels, because the walls were narrower at the higher levels. Therefore the width of the house increased upward; and so one went up from the lowest level to the highest through the middle level.
8 I saw also that the house had a raised base all around. The foundations of the side rooms were a full reed of six great cubits. 9 The thickness of the wall, which was for the side rooms, on the outside, was five cubits. That which was left was the place of the side rooms that belonged to the house. 10 Between the rooms was a width of twenty cubits around the house on every side. 11 The doors of the side rooms were toward an open area that was left, one door toward the north, and another door toward the south. The width of the open area was five cubits all around.

Ezekiel 41:5-11
English Standard Version
5 Then he measured the wall of the temple, six cubits thick, and the breadth of (A)the side chambers, four cubits, (B)all around the temple. 6 And the side chambers were in three stories, one over another, (C)thirty in each story. There were offsets[a] all around the wall of the temple to serve as supports for the side chambers, (D)so that they should not be supported by the wall of the temple. 7 And it became broader as it wound upward to the side chambers, because the temple was enclosed upward all around the temple. Thus the temple had a broad area upward, and (E)so one went up from the lowest story to the top story through the middle story. 8 I saw also that the temple had a raised platform all around; the foundations of the side chambers measured a full reed of (F)six long cubits. 9 The thickness of the outer wall of the side chambers was five cubits. (G)The free space between the side chambers of the temple and the 10 (H)other chambers was a breadth of (I)twenty cubits all around the temple on every side. 11 And the doors of the (J)side chambers opened on (K)the free space, one door toward the north, and another door toward the south. And the breadth of the free space was five cubits all around.
