- Vulgate (Clementine)
- Limina, et fenestras obliquas, et ethecas in circuitu per tres partes, contra uniuscujusque limen, stratumque ligno per gyrum in circuitu : terra autem usque ad fenestras, et fenestræ clausæ super ostia.
- Septuagint (Swete)
- καὶ θυρίδες δικτυωταί, ὑποφαύσεις κύκλῳ τοῖς τρισὶν ὥστε διακύπτειν· καὶ ὁ οἶκος καὶ τὰ πλησίον ἐξυλωμένα κύκλῳ, καὶ τὸ ἔδαφος καὶ ἐκ τοῦ ἐδάφους ἕως τῶν θυρίδων, καὶ αἱ θυρίδες ἀναπτυσσόμεναι τρισσῶς εἰς τὸ διακύπτειν.

Windows. The temple was hidden so far by the chambers; or rather he measured (Calmet) "the ground and up to the windows, which were" shut up with lattices, affording light over the doors (Haydock) and apartments, fifteen cubits from the ground.
