Ezekiel 48:8-11

8“And beside the border of Judah, from the east side to the west side, shall be the 1allotment which you shall 2set apart, twenty-five thousand 3cubits in width, and in length like one of the portions, from the east side to the west side; and the 4sanctuary shall be in the middle of it.

9The allotment that you shall set apart to the Lord shall be twenty-five thousand cubits in length and ten thousand in width.

10The holy allotment shall be for these, namely for the 5priests, toward the north twenty-five thousand cubits in length, toward the west ten thousand in width, toward the east ten thousand in width, and toward the south twenty-five thousand in length; and the sanctuary of the Lord shall be in its midst.

11It shall be for the priests who are sanctified of the 6sons of Zadok, who have 7taken the responsibility I gave them, who did not go astray when the sons of Israel went astray as the 8Levites went astray.
