8And by the borderH1366 of JudahH3063, from the eastH6921 sideH6285 unto the westH3220 sideH6285, shall beH1961 the heave-offering that ye shall offerH7311, fiveH2568 and twentyH6242 thousandH505 [cubits] in breadthH7341, and in lengthH753 as oneH259 of the parts from the eastH6921 sideH6285 unto the westH3220 sideH6285: and the sanctuaryH4720 shall beH1961 in the midstH8432 of it.

9The heave-offering that ye shall offerH7311 unto Jehovah shall be fiveH2568 and twentyH6242 thousandH505 in lengthH753, and tenH6235 thousandH505 in breadthH7341.

10And for them, for the priestsH3548, shall beH1961 the holyH6944 heave-offering, toward the northH6828 fiveH2568 and twentyH6242 thousandH505, and toward the westH3220 the breadthH7341 tenH6235 thousandH505, and toward the eastH6921 the breadthH7341 tenH6235 thousandH505, and toward the southH5045 the lengthH753 fiveH2568 and twentyH6242 thousandH505: and the sanctuaryH4720 of Jehovah shall beH1961 in the midstH8432 of it.

11[It shall be] for the priestsH3548 that are hallowed of the sonsH1121 of ZadokH6659, who keptH8104 my chargeH4931 and wentH8582 not astrayH8582 whenH834 the children of IsraelH3478 wentH8582 astrayH8582, as the LevitesH3881 wentH8582 astrayH8582.

12And this offering heaved from the heave-offering of the landH776 shall beH1961 unto them a thingH6944 most holyH6944, by the borderH1366 of the LevitesH3881.

13And answering to the borderH1366 of the priestsH3548, the LevitesH3881 shall have fiveH2568 and twentyH6242 thousandH505 in lengthH753, and tenH6235 thousandH505 in breadthH7341: the whole lengthH753 shall be fiveH2568 and twentyH6242 thousandH505, and the breadthH7341 tenH6235 thousandH505.

14And they shall not sellH4376 of it, neither exchangeH4171, nor alienate the first-fruits of the landH776: for it is holyH6944 unto Jehovah.

15And the fiveH2568 thousandH505 that are leftH3498 in the breadthH7341 over against the fiveH2568 and twentyH6242 thousandH505, shall beH1961 a common [place] for the cityH5892, for dwellingsH4186 and for suburbs: and the cityH5892 shall beH1961 in the midstH8432 of it.

16And these shall be the measures thereof: the northH6828 sideH6285 fourH702 thousandH505 and fiveH2568 hundredH3967 [cubits], and the southH5045 sideH6285 fourH702 thousandH505 and fiveH2568 hundredH3967, and the eastH6921 sideH6285 fourH702 thousandH505 and fiveH2568 hundredH3967, and the westH3220 sideH6285 fourH702 thousandH505 and fiveH2568 hundredH3967.

17And the suburbs of the cityH5892 shall beH1961 toward the northH6828 twoH3967 hundredH3967 and fiftyH2572 [cubits], and toward the southH5045 twoH3967 hundredH3967 and fiftyH2572, and toward the eastH6921 twoH3967 hundredH3967 and fiftyH2572, and toward the westH3220 twoH3967 hundredH3967 and fiftyH2572.

18And the residue in lengthH753, alongside the holyH6944 heave-offering, shall beH1961 tenH6235 thousandH505 eastward and tenH6235 thousandH505 westward: it shall beH1961 alongside the holyH6944 heave-offering; and the increase thereof shall beH1961 for the support of them that serveH5647 the cityH5892.

19And they that serveH5647 the cityH5892 shall serveH5647 it out of all the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478.

20The whole heave-offering shall be fiveH2568 and twentyH6242 thousandH505 by fiveH2568 and twentyH6242 thousandH505; ye shall offerH7311 the holyH6944 heave-offering foursquare with the possessionH272 of the cityH5892.
