7 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'.
8 I saw also that the house had a raised basement 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-chambers, on the outside, was five cubits: and that which was left was the place of the side-chambers that belonged to the house.
10 And between the chambers was a breadth of twenty cubits round about the house on every side.
11 And the doors of the side-chambers were toward 'the place' that was left, one door toward the north, and another door toward the south: and the breadth of the place that was left was five cubits round about.
