And I saw a wall surrounding… vvv the temple area. Now the length of the measuring rod in the man’s hand [was] six [long] cubits ([each measuring a] cubit and a handbreadth), and he measured the [wall to be] one rod thick [and] one rod high.

Each gate chamber [was] one rod long and one [rod]… wide, and [there were] five cubits between the gate chambers. The inner threshold of the gate by the portico… facing inward [was] one rod [deep].
