The Wall, Side Chambers, and West Building

5Then he measured the wall of the house of Yahweh, six cubits; and the width of the aside chambers, four cubits, all around about the house on every side.

6aThe side chambers were in three stories, 1one above another, and 2thirty in each story; and 3the side chambers bextended to the wall which stood on 4their inward side all around, that they might be fastened, and not be fastened into the wall of the house itself.

7The side chambers surrounding the house were wider at each successive story. Because the astructure surrounding the house went upward by stages on all sides of the house, therefore the width of the house increased as it went higher; and thus one went up from the lowest story to the highest by way of the 1second story.

8I saw also that the house had a raised 1platform all around; the foundations of the side chambers were a full rod of 2asix 3long cubits in height.

9The 1thickness of the outer wall of the side chambers was five cubits. But the afree space between the side chambers belonging to the house
