48:8“Next to the border of Judah from the east side to the west will be the allotment you must set apart. It is to be eight and a quarter miles3 wide, and the same length as one of the tribal portions, from the east side to the west; the sanctuary will be in the middle of it. 48:9The allotment you set apart to the Lord will be eight and a quarter miles4 in length and three and one-third miles5 in width. 48:10These will be the allotments for the holy portion: for the priests, toward the north eight and a quarter miles6 in length, toward the west three and one-third miles7 in width, toward the east three and one-third miles8 in width, and toward the south eight and a quarter miles9 in length; the sanctuary of the Lord will be in the middle. 48:11This will be for the priests who are set apart from the descendants of Zadok who kept my charge and did not go astray when the people of Israel strayed off, like the Levites did.1048:12It will be their portion from the allotment of the land, a most holy place, next to the border of the Levites.

48:13“Alongside the border of the priests, the Levites will have an allotment eight and a quarter miles11 in length and three and one-third miles12 in width. The whole length will be eight and a quarter miles13 and the width three and one-third miles.1448:14They must not sell or exchange any of it; they must not transfer this choice portion of land, for it is set apart15 to the Lord.
