*
Moreover ,
when ye shall divide by lot the land for inheritance ,
ye shall set apart an offering unto the LORD ,
a holy portion of the land ;
the length shall be the length of five and twenty thousand reeds ,
and the breadth shall be ten thousand ;
it shall be holy in all the border thereof round about .
*
Of this there shall be for the holy place five hundred in length by five hundred in breadth ,
square round about ;
and fifty cubits for the open land round about it .
*
And of this measure shalt thou measure a length of five and twenty thousand ,
and a breadth of ten thousand ;
and in it shall be the sanctuary ,
which is most holy .
*
It is a holy portion of the land ;
it shall be for the priests ,
the ministers of the sanctuary ,
that come near to minister unto the LORD ;
and it shall be a place for their houses ,
and a place consecrated for the sanctuary .
*
And five and twenty thousand in length ,
and ten thousand in breadth ,
which shall be unto the Levites ,
the ministers of the house ,
for a possession unto themselves ,
for twenty chambers .
*
And ye shall appoint the possession of the city five thousand broad ,
and five and twenty thousand long ,
side by side with the offering of the holy portion ;
it shall be for the whole house of Israel .
*
And for the prince ,
on the one side and on the other side of the holy offering and of the possession of the city ,
in front of the holy offering and in front of the possession of the city ,
on the west side westward ,
and on the east side eastward ;
and in length answerable unto one of the portions ,
from the west border unto the east border
*
of the land ;
it shall be to him for a possession in Israel ,
and My princes shall no more wrong My people ;
but they shall give the land to the house of Israel according to their tribes .
*
Thus saith the Lord GOD :
Let it suffice you ,
O princes of Israel ;
remove violence and spoil ,
and execute justice and righteousness ;
take away your exactions from My people ,
saith the Lord GOD .
*
Ye shall have just balances ,
and a just ephah ,
and a just bath .
*
The ephah and the bath shall be of one measure ,
that the bath may contain the tenth part of a homer ,
and the ephah the tenth part of a homer ;
the measure thereof shall be after the homer .
*
And the shekel shall be twenty gerahs ;
twenty shekels ,
five and twenty shekels ,
ten ,
and five shekels ,
shall be your maneh .
