12 There was a low wall in front of each room. That wall was 1 cubit tall and 1 cubit thick. The rooms were square. Each wall was 6 cubits long.
13 The man measured the gateway from the outside edge of the roof of one room to the outside edge of the roof of the opposite room. It was 25 cubits. Each door was directly opposite the other door.
14 He measured the faces of all the side walls, including the side walls on either side of the porch at the courtyard. The total was 60 cubits.
15 From the inside edge of the outer gate to the far end of the porch was 50 cubits.
16 There were small windows above all the guardrooms, the side walls, and the porch. The wide part of the windows faced into the gateway. There were carvings of palm trees on the walls that were on either side of the gateway.
17 Then the man led me into the outer courtyard. I saw thirty rooms and a pavement that went all the way around the courtyard. The rooms were along the wall and faced in toward the pavement.
18 The pavement was as wide as the gates were long. The pavement reached to the inside end of the gateway. This was the lower pavement.
