Ezekiel 41:8-18

8 I saw also the hight of the house around: the foundations of the side-chambers [were] a full reed of six great cubits.
9 The thickness of the wall, which [was] for the side-chamber without, [was] five cubits: and [that] which [was] left [was] the place of the side-chambers that [were] within.
10 And between the chambers [was] the width of twenty cubits around the house on every side.
11 And the doors of the side-chambers [were] towards [the place that was] left, one door towards the north, and another door towards the south: and the breadth of the place that was left [was] five cubits around.
12 Now the building that was before the separate place at the end towards the west [was] seventy cubits broad; and the wall of the building [was] five cubits thick around, and its length ninety cubits.
13 So he measured the house, a hundred cubits long; and the separate place, and the building, with its walls, a hundred cubits long;
14 Also the breadth of the face of the house, and of the separate place towards the east, a hundred cubits.
15 And he measured the length of the building over against the separate place which [was] behind it, and its galleries on the one side and on the other side, a hundred cubits, with the inner temple, and the porches of the court;
16 The door posts, and the narrow windows, and the galleries around on their three stories, over against the door, ceiled with wood around, and from the ground up to the windows, and the windows [were] covered;
17 To that above the door, even to the inner house, and without, and by all the wall around within and without, by measure.
18 And [it was] made with cherubim and palm-trees, so that a palm-tree [was] between a cherub and a cherub; and [every] cherub had two faces;
