Ezekiel 40:45-47

New English Translation

⁴⁵ He said to me, “This chamber that faces south is for the priests who keep charge of the temple,^{[a] 46} and the chamber that faces north is for the priests who keep charge of the altar. These are the descendants of Zadok, from the descendants of Levi, who may approach the Lord to minister to him.” ⁴⁷ He measured the court as a square 175 feet long and 175 feet wide;^[b] the altar was in front of the temple.
