⁸The land that you set aside as a special gift for the Lord will border Judah on the south. It will be 43,750 feet wide, and it will be as long as one of the sections of the tribes. It will extend from the eastern border to the western border, and the holy place will be in the middle of it.

⁹This special land that you set aside for the Lord will be 43,750 feet long and 17,500 feet wide. ¹⁰This holy area will belong to the priests. On the north side it will be 43,750 feet long. On the west side it will be 17,500 feet wide. On the east side it will be 17,500 feet wide. On the south side it will be 43,750 feet long. The Lord’s holy place will be in the middle of it. ¹¹This land that has been set apart will belong to the priests who are descendants of Zadok. They took care of my holy place. They didn’t wander away with the Israelites as the Levites did. ¹²So they will have a special portion from the land. It will be the holiest part of land, next to the land belonging to the Levites.

¹³Alongside the land belonging to the priests will be the land belonging to the Levites. It will be 43,750 feet long and 17,500 feet wide. ¹⁴They must not sell any of it or trade any of it. They must not let others have the best part of the land, because the land is the Lord’s and it is holy.
