¹⁵ And he measured the length of the building over against the separate place which was behind it, and the galleries thereof on the one side and on the other side, an hundred cubits, with the inner temple, and the porches of the court;

¹⁶ The door posts, and the narrow windows, and the galleries round about on their three stories, over against the door, cieled with wood round about, and from the ground up to the windows, and the windows were covered;

¹⁰ And between the chambers was the wideness of twenty cubits round about the house on every side.

³ And when all the children of Israel saw how the fire came down, and the glory of the LORD upon the house, they bowed themselves with their faces to the ground upon the pavement, and worshipped, and praised the LORD, saying, For he is good; for his mercy endureth for ever.

¹⁷ The beams of our house are cedar, and our rafters of fir.

⁵ Thine head upon thee is like Carmel, and the hair of thine head like purple; the king is held in the galleries.

¹⁷ Then brought he me into the outward court, and, lo, there were chambers, and a pavement made for the court round about: thirty chambers were upon the pavement.

¹⁸ And the pavement by the side of the gates over against the length of the gates was the lower pavement.

⁵ Now the upper chambers were shorter: for the galleries were higher than these, than the lower, and than the middlemost of the building.
