Ezekiel 40:12-14
Wycliffe Bible
12 And he meted a margin of one cubit before the (little) chambers, and one cubit was the end on each side; forsooth the (little) chambers were of six cubits on this side and on that side. (And he measured a low wall, or a curb, in front of the little chambers, and the curb was one cubit on each side; and the little chambers were six cubits on this side, and six cubits on that side.)
13 And he meted the gate from the roof of the (little) chamber till to the roof thereof, the breadth of five and twenty cubits, a door against a door. (And he measured the gateway from the roof of one little chamber unto the roof of another, and the breadth was twenty-five cubits, with a door opposite a door.)
14 And he made posts by sixty cubits, and at the post a foreyard[a] of the gate on each side by compass; (And he made posts of sixty cubits, and at the post a courtyard of the gateway on each side all around;)

- Ezekiel 40:14 In the original text, throughout the rest of Ezekiel, both “foreyard” and “hall” are used to express a “court” or a “courtyard”, at times within the same sentence (“hall” is also used to express a “porch”, and once, in a misprint, a “wall”; “court” is found elsewhere in the “Wycliffe Bible”). To avoid confusion, and to enhance comprehension, only “foreyard” will be used here.
