16. He measured the east side with the measuring rod; it was five hundred cubits.
17. He measured the north side; it was five hundred cubits by the measuring rod.
18. He measured the south side; it was five hundred cubits by the measuring rod.
19. Then he turned to the west side and measured; it was five hundred cubits by the measuring rod.
