Ezekiel 45:1-8

1“And when you 1divide by lot the land for inheritance, you shall offer 2an 3allotment to the Lord, a 4holy portion of the land; the length shall be the length of 25,000 5cubits, and the width shall be 620,000. It shall be holy within all its boundary round about. 2Out of this there shall be for the holy place a square round about 7five hundred by five hundred cubits, and fifty cubits for its 89open space round about. 3From this 10area you shall measure a length of 25,000 cubits and a width of 10,000 cubits; and in it shall be the sanctuary, the most holy place. 4It shall be the holy portion of the land; it shall be for the 11priests, the ministers of the sanctuary, who 12come near to minister to the Lord, and it shall be a place for their houses and a holy place for the sanctuary. 5An area 1325,000 cubits in length and 10,000 in width shall be for the Levites, the ministers of the house, and for their possession 14cities to dwell in.

6“You shall give the 15city possession of an area 5,000 cubits wide and 25,000 cubits long, alongside the 16allotment of the holy portion; it shall be for the whole house of Israel.

7“The 17prince shall have land on either side of the holy 18allotment and the 19property of the city, adjacent to the holy 20allotment and the 21property of the city, on the west side toward the west and on the east side toward the east, and in length comparable to one of the portions, from the west border to the east border. 8This shall be his land for a possession in Israel; so My princes shall no longer 22oppress My people, but they shall give the rest of the land to the house of Israel 23according to their tribes.”
