\v 21 Each of the pillars was 27 feet tall and 18 feet around. They were hollow, and each had sides that were 3 inches thick.

ISSUES: Besides needing to spell out the numbers in this verse, I changed the measurements to metric to be consistent with the rest of the UDB units of measure. It now reads:

\v 21 Each of the pillars was eight meters tall and five and one half meters around. They were hollow, and each had sides that were eight centimeters thick.

Thanks Bob for checking the continuity. Some translator, far away, will not be puzzled or stumped by the UDB, but helped by it.
