Ezekiel 48:15-22

15“The remainder, 5,000 cubits in width and 25,000 1in length, shall be for 2common use for the city, for dwellings and for 3open spaces; and the city shall be in its midst. 16These shall be its measurements: the north side 4,500 cubits, the south side 44,500 cubits, the east side 4,500 cubits, and the west side 4,500 cubits. 17The city shall have 5open spaces: on the north 250 cubits, on the south 250 cubits, on the east 250 cubits, and on the west 250 cubits. 18The remainder of the length alongside the holy allotment shall be 10,000 cubits toward the east and 10,000 toward the west; and it shall be 6alongside the holy allotment. And its produce shall be food for the workers of the city. 19The workers of the city, out of all the tribes of Israel, shall cultivate it. 20The whole allotment shall be 25,000 by 25,000 cubits; you shall 7set apart the holy allotment, a 8square, with the 9property of the city.

21“The 10remainder shall be for the prince, on the one side and on the other of the holy allotment and of the 11property of the city; in front of the 25,000 cubits of the allotment toward the east border and westward in front of the 25,000 toward the west border, alongside the portions, it shall be for the prince. And the holy allotment and the sanctuary of the house shall be in the middle of it. 22Exclusive of the 12property of the Levites and the 13property of the city, which are in the middle of that which belongs to the prince, everything between the border of Judah and the border of Benjamin shall be for the prince.
