5. And behold, there was a wall outside of the house, encircling it all around, and in the man's hand was a measuring reed of six cubits and a palm. And he measured the width of the edifice with one reed; likewise, the height with one reed.
6. And he went to the gate which looked toward the east, and he ascended by its steps. And he measured the width of the threshold of the gate as one reed, that is, one threshold was one reed in width.
7. And a chamber was one reed in length and one reed in width. And between the chambers, there were five cubits.
8. And the threshold of the gate, next to the inner vestibule of the gate, was one reed.
9. And he measured the vestibule of the gate as eight cubits, and its front as two cubits. But the vestibule of the gate was inside.
10. Moreover, the chambers of the gate, toward the way of the east, were three from one side to the other. The three were of one measure, and the fronts were of one measure, on both sides.
11. And he measured the width of the threshold of the gate as ten cubits, and the length of the gate as thirteen cubits.
