Instructions about Divisions of the Renewed Land
45And when you allocate the land as an inheritance, you shall provide a contribution for Yahweh as a holy portion from the land, its length being twenty-five thousand cubitsa and its width ten thousand cubits;b it is holy in all its territory, all around. 2And there shall be from this area five hundred cubitsc by five hundred cubits, squared all around, for the sanctuary; and fifty cubitsde of open space shall be for it all around it. 3And from this measured area you shall measure a length of twenty-fivef thousand cubitsg and a width of ten thousand cubits,h and in it will be the sanctuary, the most holy place.i 4Itj is a holy portion from the land; it will be for the priests, the servants of the sanctuary who approachk to serve Yahweh, and it will be for them a place for houses and a holy place for the sanctuary. 5And an area twenty-five thousand cubits in length and ten thousand cubits in width will be for the Levites, the servants of the temple. It will serve as property for them as cities to dwell in.l 6And as property of the city, you must set apart alongside the contribution of the sanctuary a portion five thousand cubitsm in width and twenty-five thousand cubitsn in length, and it shall be for the entire house of Israel.
