16 There were narrow windows in the little chambers and in their posts inside the gate all around, and likewise in the vestibules. And windows were all around inside. And on each post were palm tree ornaments.
17 Then he brought me into the outer court, and there were chambers and a pavement made all around the court. Thirty chambers were on the pavement.
18 The pavement was by the side of the gates, corresponding to the length of the gates; this was the lower pavement.
19 Then he measured the width from the front of the lower gate to the outer front of the inner court, a hundred cubits eastward and northward.
20 As for the gate of the outer court that faced north, he measured its length and its width.
21 Its little chambers, three on this side and three on that side, its posts, and its arches had the same measurements as the first gate; its length was fifty cubits, and its width twenty-five cubits.
22 Its windows, and those of its arches, and its palm trees had the same measurements as the gate facing east. Seven steps led up to it; and its arches were in front of it.
