⁵ And, hinei, a chomah (wall) was on the outside of the Bais [Hamikdash] compound and was surrounding it, and in the yad of the ish was a keneh hamiddah of six long cubits, each a cubit and a handbreadth; so he [the angelic being] measured the thickness of the structure [of the chomah], one rod; and the wall’s height, one rod.

⁶ Then came he [the angelic being] unto the sha’ar (gateway) which faceth eastward, and went up the ma’alot (steps, stairs) thereof, and measured the saf (threshold) of the sha’ar, which was one rod deep;

⁷ And every ta (recess) was one rod wide, and one rod deep; and between the ta’im (rooms) were five cubits; and the saf (threshold) of the sha’ar next to the ulam of the sha’ar on the inside was one rod.
