It

cubits

on

10
, 000
cubits

on

And

toward

length'
, and
toward

thousand
in

, and
toward

thousand

twenty
thousand
in length:
and
the sanctuary of Jehovah
shall
be
in

thereof
.
It will
be for the consecrated
priests ,
the descendants
of Zadok, who
kept My charge and
did
not go
astray as the Levites did
when
the
Israelites
went astray.
`
It shall
be '
for the priests that
are
sanctified
of
the sons
of Zadok, that
have
kept my charge ,
that
went
not astray when
the
children
of
Israel
went
astray,
as the Levites went astray.
It will
be a
special
portion
for
them set
apart
from the land, a most holy portion
adjacent
to
the territory
of the Levites.
And
it shall
be unto
them an
oblation
from the oblation
of
the
land, a thing
most holy ,
by
the border
of the Levites.
Bordering
the territory
of the priests, the Levites shall have an
area

cubits
long
and 10
, 000
cubits
wide.
The whole
length will

thousand

thousand
in
breadth:
all
the length shall
be five
and
twenty
thousand
, and the breadth
ten
thousand
.
They must
not
sell or
exchange
any
of it, and
they
must
not
transfer
this
best
part
of the land ,
for it is holy to
the
LORD
.
And
they shall
sell none
of it, nor
exchange
it,
nor
shall
the
first-fruits
of the land be
alienated;
for it is holy unto
Jehovah
.
The remaining
area,
5
, 000
cubits
wide
and 25,000
cubits
long
, will
be for common use by
the city, for houses,
and for pastureland.
The city will
be in the center
of
it
And
the five
thousand
that
are
left
in
the
breadth
, in
front
of
the
five
and twenty
thousand
, shall
be for common use ,
for
the city, for dwelling
and for suburbs;
and
the city shall
be in the midst
thereof.
and will
have
these measurements
: 4,500
cubits
on
the north side ,
4
, 500
cubits
on
the south side ,
4
, 500
cubits
on the east side ,
and 4
, 500
cubits
on
the west side.
And these shall
be
the
measures
thereof
: the north side four
thousand
and
five
hundred
, and
the south side four
thousand
and
five
hundred
, and
on the east side four
thousand
and five
hundred
, and
the west side four
thousand
and
five
hundred
.
The
pastureland
of
the city will
extend
250
cubits
to
the north, 250
cubits
to
the south, 250
cubits
to
the east, and 250
cubits
to
the west.
And
the city shall
have
suburbs:
toward
the north two
hundred
and
fifty
, and
toward
the south two
hundred
and
fifty
, and
toward
the east two
hundred
and
fifty
, and toward
the west two
hundred
and
fifty
.
The remainder
of
the length bordering
the holy portion
and running
adjacent
to
it will
be 10,000
cubits
on
the east
side
and 10,000
cubits
on
the west
side.
Its
produce
will
supply
food
for the
workers
of
the city.
And
the residue
in
the length ,
answerable
unto
the holy oblation,
shall
be
ten
thousand
eastward,
and ten
thousand
westward;
and
it shall
be answerable
unto
the holy
oblation;
and the increase
thereof
shall
be
for food
unto
them
that
labor
in
the city.
The
workers
of
the city who
cultivate
it
will
come
from
all the tribes of Israel.
And
they
that
labor
in
the city ,
out
of
all the tribes of Israel ,
shall
till
it
.
The entire
portion
will
be a
square,
25,000
cubits
by 25,000
cubits.
You
are
to
set
apart
the holy portion
, along
with the city property
.
All
the oblation
shall
be five
and
twenty
thousand
by five
and
twenty
thousand:
ye
shall
offer
the holy oblation
four-square
, with the possession
of
the
city.
The remaining
area
on both
sides
of the holy portion
and of the property
of the city will
belong
to
the
prince.
He
will
own
the
land
adjacent
to
the
tribal
portions,
extending
eastward
from
the 25,000
cubits
of the holy
district
toward the eastern
border, and westward from
the 25,000
cubits
to
the western
border .
And
in
the center
of
them
will
be the holy portion
and the sanctuary of the temple
.
And
the residue
shall
be
for
the
prince,
on the
one
side
and
on
the
other
of the holy oblation
and of the possession
of the city ;
in
front
of
the five
and
twenty
thousand
of the oblation
toward the east
border, and westward in
front
of
the five
and
twenty
thousand
toward
the west
border ,
answerable
unto
the portions,
it
shall
be for
the prince:
and
the
holy oblation
and the sanctuary of the house
shall
be
in
the
midst
thereof
.
So
the Levitical
property
and the city property
will
lie
in the center
of the
area
belonging
to
the
prince—
the area
between the borders
of Judah and Benjamin.
Moreover
from
the possession
of
the
Levites,
and from
the possession
of
the
city ,
being
in the midst
of that
which
is
the prince's,
between the border
of Judah and the
border
of
Benjamin ,
it
shall
be
for
the
prince
.
As for the rest of the tribes: Benjamin
will
have
one
portion
extending
from the east side to
the west side.
And
as for the rest of the tribes: from the east side unto
the west side ,
Benjamin,
one
`portion'
.
Simeon
will
have
one
portion
bordering

one
`portion'
.
Issachar
will
have
one
portion
bordering

unto

west side,
Issachar,
one
`portion'
.
Zebulun
will
have
one
portion
bordering
the territory
of Issachar from east to
west.
And
by

of Issachar ,
from the

unto
the
west side,
Zebulun,
one
`portion'
.
And Gad
will
have
one
portion
bordering
the territory
of Zebulun from east to
west.
And by
the border
of Zebulun ,
from the
east side
unto
the
west side,

one
`portion'
.
The southern
border of Gad will
run
from Tamar to
the waters of Meribath-kadesh, then
along
the Brook of Egypt and
out
to
the Great Sea.
And
by
the border of Gad ,
at
the
south
side
southward,
the
border
shall
be
even
from Tamar unto
the waters of Meribath-kadesh, to
the brook `
of Egypt ',
unto
the great sea.
This is the land you
are
to
allot
as
an
inheritance
to
the tribes of Israel, and these will
be
their portions, ”
declares
the Lord GOD
.
This is the land which
ye
shall
divide
by
lot
unto
the tribes of Israel for
inheritance
, and these are
their several
portions, saith
the Lord Jehovah
.
“
