10“And the holy contribution shall be for these, namely for the apriests, toward the north 25,000 cubits in length, toward the west 10,000 in width, toward the east 10,000 in width, and toward the south 25,000 in length; and the sanctuary of Yahweh shall be in its midst.

11“It shall be for the priests who are sanctified of the asons of Zadok, who have kept the responsibility given by Me, who did not go astray when the sons of Israel went astray as the bLevites went astray.

12“And it shall be a contribution to them from the contribution of the land, a Holy of Holies, by the border of the Levites.

13“Now alongside the border of the priests, the Levites shall have 25,000 cubits in length and 10,000 in width. The whole length shall be 25,000 cubits and the width 10,000.

14“Moreover, they ashall not sell or exchange any of it, or let this 1choice portion of land pass over to another; for it is holy to Yahweh.

15“And the remainder, 15,000 cubits in width and 25,000 2in length, shall be for acommon use for the city, for places of habitation, and for 3open spaces; and the city shall be in its midst.

16“And these shall be its measurements: the north side 14,500 cubits, the south side a4,500 cubits, the east side 4,500 cubits, and the west side 4,500 cubits.

17“And the city shall have 1open spaces: on the north 2250 cubits, on the south 250 cubits, on the east 250 cubits, and on the west 250 cubits.

18“And the remainder of the length alongside the holy contribution shall be 10,000 cubits toward the east and 10,000 toward the west; and it shall be 1alongside the holy contribution. And its produce shall be food for the workers of the city.

19“The workers of the city, out of all the tribes of Israel, shall cultivate it.

20“The whole contribution shall be 25,000 by 25,000 cubits; you shall contribute the holy contribution, a 1square, with the city’s possession of land.
