* Now these are the names of the tribes : At the edge , on the north side , along the road on the way to Chethlon , as far as Chamath , Chazar –’enan , the boundary of Damascus northward , alongside of Chamath , there shall be from the east side to the west for Dan one portion . * And by the boundary of Dan , from the east side unto the west side , for Asher one portion . * And by the boundary of Asher , from the east side even unto the west side , for Naphtali one portion . * And by the boundary of Naphtali , from the east side unto the west side , for Menasseh one portion . * And by the boundary of Menasseh , from the east side unto the west side , for Ephraim one portion . * And by the boundary of Ephraim , from the east side even unto the west side , for Reuben one portion . * And by the boundary of Reuben , from the east side unto the west side , for Judah one portion . * And by the boundary of Judah , from the east side unto the west side , shall be the oblation which ye shall set aside of five and twenty thousand rods in breadth , and in length as one of the other parts , from the east side unto the west side : and the sanctuary shall be in the midst of it . * The oblation that ye shall set aside unto the Lord shall be in length five and twenty thousand , and in breadth ten thousand . * And to these shall belong the holy oblation ,––namely to the priests , toward the north , five and twenty thousand rods , and on the west ten thousand in breadth , and on the east ten thousand in breadth , and on the south five and twenty thousand in length : and the sanctuary of the Lord shall be in the midst of it . * Unto the priests , that are sanctified , of the sons of Zadok , who have kept my charge , who went not astray when the children of Israel went astray , as the Levites went astray . * To them shall thus belong the portion set aside of the oblation of the land as a most holy thing by the boundary of the Levites . * And the Levites shall have alongside the boundary of the priests five and twenty thousand rods in length , and in breadth ten thousand ; the whole in length five and twenty thousand , and in breadth ten thousand . * But they shall not sell aught thereof , or exchange , or alienate this first portion of the land ; for it is holy unto the Lord . * And the five thousand rods , that are left in the breadth , with a length of five and twenty thousand , shall be an unconsecrated land for the city , for dwelling , and for an open space : and the city shall be in the midst thereof . * And these shall be its measures : The north side four thousand and five hundred , and the south side four thousand and five hundred , and on the east side four thousand and five hundred , and the west side four thousand and five hundred . * And the open space of the city shall be toward the north two hundred and fifty , and toward the south two hundred and fifty , and toward the east two hundred and fifty , and toward the west two hundred and fifty . * And the produce of the residue in length alongside the holy oblation ten thousand rods eastward , and ten thousand westward , that which is alongside the holy oblation , shall be for food unto the laborers of the city . * And the laborers of the city , men taken out of all the tribes of Israel , shall till it . * All the oblation , five and twenty thousand by five and twenty thousand square , shall ye set apart as the holy oblation , with the possession of the city . * And the residue shall belong to the prince , on the one side and on the other of the holy oblation , and of the possession of the city , alongside of the five and twenty thousand of the oblation toward the eastern boundary , and westward alongside the five and twenty thousand toward the western boundary , alongside the portions ; for the prince : and so shall be the holy oblation ; and the sanctuary of the house shall be in the midst thereof . * And both the possession of the Levites , and the possession of the city , shall be in the midst of that which belongeth to the prince : between the boundary of Judah and the boundary of Benjamin , shall be for the prince . * As for the rest of the tribes , from the east side unto the west side , shall be for Benjamin one portion . * And by the boundary of Benjamin , from the east side unto the west side , for Simeon one portion . * And by the boundary of Simeon , from the east side unto the west side , for Issachar one portion . * And by the boundary of Issachar , from the east side unto the west side , for Zebulun one portion . * And by the boundary of Zebulun , from the east side unto the west side , for Gad one portion . * And by the boundary of Gad , on the southern side toward the south , shall be the boundary from Thamar unto the waters of contention of Kadesh , unto the brook by the Great Sea . * This is the land which ye shall divide by lot for an inheritance to the tribes of Israel , and these are their allotted divisions , saith the Lord Eternal . * And these are the outlines of the city : On the north side , five hundred and four thousand rods , by the measure . * And of the gates of the city , being after the names of the tribes of Israel , shall be three gates on the north : the gate of Reuben one , the gate of Judah one , the gate of Levi one . * And on the east side , five hundred and four thousand rods , with three gates : namely , the gate of Joseph one , the gate of Benjamin one , the gate of Dan one . * And the south side , five hundred and four thousand rode by the measure , with three gates : the gate of Simeon one , the gate of Issachar one , the gate of Zebulun one . * The west side , five hundred and four thousand rods , with their three gates : the gate of Gad one , the gate of Asher one , the gate of Naphtali one . * All around it shall be eighteen thousand rods : and the name of the city shall be from that day "The Lord is there ."
