He measured the length and width of the gate of the outer court which faces north.

He said to me, “This chamber which faces south is for the priests who keep charge of the temple, ¹ 

At the beginning ¹  of the wall of the court toward the south, ²  facing the courtyard and the building, were chambers

The cherubim are to be spreading their wings upward, overshadowing ¹  the atonement lid with their wings, and the cherubim are to face each other, ²  looking ³  toward the atonement lid.

So we settled down in the valley opposite Beth Peor. ¹ 

Then he went to the gate facing east. He climbed its steps and measured the threshold of the gate as 10½ feet deep. ¹ 

For the chambers on the outer court were 87½ feet ¹  long, while those facing the temple were 175 feet ²  long.

Why too are we in danger every hour?

When the prince provides a freewill offering, a burnt offering, or peace offerings as a voluntary offering to the Lord, the gate facing east will be opened for him, and he will provide his burnt offering and his peace offerings just as he did on the Sabbath. Then he will go out, and the gate will be closed after he goes out. ¹ 

The Lord again asked me, “What do you see?” I answered, “I see a pot of boiling water; it is tipped toward us from the north.” ¹ 

and the chamber which faces north is for the priests who keep charge of the altar. These are the descendants of Zadok, from the descendants of Levi, who may approach the Lord to minister to him.”

The cherubim were spreading their wings ¹  upward, overshadowing the atonement lid with their wings. The cherubim ²  faced each other, ³  looking toward the atonement lid. ⁴ 

The inner court had a gate toward the south; he measured it from gate to gate toward the south as 175 feet. ¹ 

Then he brought me to the inner court on the east side. He measured the gate; it had the same dimensions as the others.

As for the outer wall by the side of the chambers, toward the outer court facing the chambers, it was 87½ feet ¹  long.

And for the back of the tabernacle on the west he made six frames.

He put “The Sea” on the south side, in the southeast corner.

So he read it before the plaza in front of the Water Gate from dawn till noon ¹  before the men and women and those children who could understand. ²  All the people were eager to hear ³  the book of the law.

For I am about to stumble, and I am in constant pain. ¹ 

The Lord protects ¹  the untrained; ²  I was in serious trouble ³  and he delivered me.
