Ezekiel 40:24-31

New International Version

The South Gate

²⁴ Then he led me to the south side and I saw the south gate. He measured its jambs and its portico, and they had the same measurements^(A) as the others. ²⁵ The gateway and its portico had narrow openings all around, like the openings of the others. It was fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.^{(B) 26} Seven steps led up to it, with its portico opposite them; it had palm tree decorations on the faces of the projecting walls on each side.^{(C) 27} The inner court^(D) also had a gate facing south, and he measured from this gate to the outer gate on the south side; it was a hundred cubits.^(E)

The Gates to the Inner Court

²⁸ Then he brought me into the inner court through the south gate, and he measured the south gate; it had the same measurements^(F) as the others. ²⁹ Its alcoves,^(G) its projecting walls and its portico had the same measurements as the others. The gateway and its portico had openings all around. It was fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.^{(H) 30} (The porticoes^(I) of the gateways around the inner court were twenty-five cubits wide and five cubits deep.) ³¹ Its portico^(J) faced the outer court; palm trees decorated its jambs, and eight steps led up to it.^(K)
