Ezekiel 48:15-22
15The remaining areaH3498, 5,000H2568H505 cubits1 wideH7341 and 25,000H2568H6242H505 cubits long, will be for common useH2455 by the cityH5892, for housesH4186, and for pasturelandH4054. The cityH5892 will beH1961 in the center of itH8432 16and will have theseH428 measurementsH4060: 4,500H2568H3967H702H505 cubits2 on the northH6828 sideH6285, 4,500H2568 cubits on the southH5045 sideH6285, 4,500H2568H3967H702H505 cubits on the eastH6921 sideH6285, and 4,500H2568H3967H702H505 cubits on the westH3220 sideH6285.
17The pasturelandH4054 of the cityH5892 will extendH1961 250H2572H3967 cubits3 to the northH6828, 250H2572H3967 cubits to the southH5045, 250H2572H3967 cubits to the eastH6921, and 250H2572H3967 cubits to the westH3220.
18The remainderH3498 of the lengthH753 borderingH5980 the holyH6944 portionH8641 and runningH1961 adjacent toH5980 it will be 10,000H6235H505 cubits on the east sideH6921 and 10,000H6235H505 cubits on the west sideH3220. Its produceH8393 will supplyH1961 foodH3899 for the workersH5647 of the cityH5892. 19The workersH5647 of the cityH5892 who cultivate itH5647 will come from allH3605 the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478.
20The entireH3605 portionH8641 will be a squareH7243, 25,000H2568H6242H505 cubits by 25,000H2568H6242H505 cubits. You are to set apartH7311 the holyH6944 portionH8641, along withH413 the cityH5892 propertyH272.
21The remaining areaH3498 on both sidesH2088 of the holyH6944 portionH8641 and of the propertyH272 of the cityH5892 will belong to the princeH5387. HeH5387 will own the land adjacent toH5980 the tribal portionsH2506, extendingH413H6440 eastward from the 25,000H2568H6242H505 cubits of the holy districtH8641 towardH5704 the easternH6921 borderH1366, and westwardH3220H6440 from the 25,000H2568H6242H505H5921 cubits to the westernH3220 borderH1366. And in the center of themH8432 will beH1961 the holyH6944 portionH8641 and the sanctuaryH4720 of the templeH1004.
22So the LeviticalH3881 propertyH272 and the cityH5892 propertyH272 will lie in the centerH8432 of the areaH834 belongingH1961 to the princeH5387—the area betweenH996 the bordersH1366 of JudahH3063 andH996 BenjaminH1144.
