Ezekiel 41:7

5 After he measured the wall of the house, six cubits; and the breadth of every side chamber, four cubits, round about the house on every side.

6 And the side chambers were three, one over another, and thirty in order; and they entered into the wall which was of the house for the side chambers round about, that they might have hold, but they had not hold in the wall of the house.

And there was an enlarging, and a winding about still upward to the side chambers: for the winding about of the house went still upward round about the house: therefore the breadth of the house was still upward, and so increased from the lowest chamber to the highest by the midst.

8 I saw also the height of the house round about: 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.

Dette ble sagt til Israel i en bestemt tid, så det er lurt å lese det sammen med teksten rundt. Les gjerne versene rundt også, for sammenhengen gir ofte mer enn ett vers alene.

Og bredden på sidekammerne tiltok rundt omkring, jo høyere en kom opp; for bygningen om huset gikk høyere og høyere opp rundt omkring huset. Derfor var bredden mot huset større oventil, og fra det nederste stokkverk steg en opp i det øverste gjennom det midterste.

Siderommene ble bredere for hvert stigende nivå. Strukturen var bygget i etapper, slik at rommene ble bredere etter hvert som man steg opp. En trapp førte fra det laveste til det høyeste nivået via det midterste nivået.

Og bredden på sidekammerne tiltok rundt omkring, jo høiere en kom op; for bygningen om huset gikk høiere og høiere op rundt omkring huset. Derfor var bredden mot huset større oventil, og fra det nederste stokkverk steg en op i det øverste gjennem det midterste.
BSB
The side rooms surrounding the temple widened at each successive level, because the structure surrounding the temple ascended by stages corresponding to the narrowing of the temple wall as it rose upward. And so a stairway went up from the lowest story to the highest, through the middle one.
KJV
And there was an enlarging, and a winding about still upward to the side chambers: for the winding about of the house went still upward round about the house: therefore the breadth of the house was still upward, and so increased from the lowest chamber to the highest by the midst.

The side rooms were wider on the higher levels, because the walls were narrower at the higher levels. Therefore the width of the house increased upward; and so one went up from the lowest level to the highest through the middle level.
ASV
And the side-chambers were broader as they encompassed [the house] higher and higher; for the encompassing of the house went higher and higher round about the house: therefore the breadth of the house [continued] upward; and so one went up [from] the lowest [chamber] to the highest by the middle [chamber].
DARBY
And for the side-chambers there was an enlarging, and it went round about [the house] increasing upward; for the surrounding of the house increased upward round about the house; therefore the house had width upward, and so ascended [from] the lower [story] to the upper, by the middle one.
BLB
And it became wider, and went around above [and] above to the side chambers, because the turning round of the house [went] above [and] above round [and] round the house; upon thus the width of the structure [was] above, and the lowest went up to the highest through the middle.
