Ezekiel 48:1-29

[1] Now these are the names  of the tribes.  From the north  end  to the coast  of the way  of Hethlon,  as one goeth  to Hamath,  Hazarenan,  the border  of Damascus  northward,  to the coast  of Hamath;  for these are his sides  east  and west;  portion for Dan.  [2] And by the border  of Dan,  from the east  side  unto the west  side,  portion for Asher.  [3] And by the border  of Asher,  from the east  side  even unto the west  side,  portion for Naphtali.  [4] And by the border  of Naphtali,  from the east  side  unto the west  side,  portion for Manasseh.  [5] And by the border  of Manasseh,  from the east  side  unto the west  side,  portion for Ephraim.  [6] And by the border  of Ephraim,  from the east  side  even unto the west  side,  portion for Reuben.  [7] And by the border  of Reuben,  from the east  side  unto the west  side,  portion for Judah.  [8] And by the border  of Judah,  from the east  side  unto the west  side,  shall be the offering  which ye shall offer  of five  and twenty  thousand  reeds 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  [9] The oblation  that ye shall offer  unto the LORD  shall be of five  and twenty  thousand  in length,  and of ten  thousand  in breadth.  [10] And for them, even for the priests,  shall be this holy  oblation;  toward the north  five  and twenty  thousand  in length, and toward the west  ten  thousand  in breadth,  and toward the east  ten  thousand  in breadth,  and toward the south  five  and twenty  thousand  in length:  and the sanctuary  shall be in the midst  [11] It shall be for the priests  that are sanctified  of the sons  of Zadok;  which have kept  my charge,  which went not astray  when the children  of Israel  went astray,  as the Levites  went astray.  [12] And this oblation  of the land  that is offered  shall be unto them a thing most  by the border  of the Levites.  [13] And over against  the border  of the priests  the Levites  shall have five  and twenty  thousand  in length,  and ten  thousand  in breadth:  all the length  shall be five  and twenty  thousand,  and the breadth  ten  thousand.  [14] And they shall not sell  of it, neither exchange,  nor alienate  the firstfruits  of the land:  for it is holy  unto the LORD.  [15] And the five  thousand,  that are left  in the breadth  over against  the five  and twenty  thousand,  shall be a profane  place for the city,  for dwelling,  and for suburbs:  and the city  shall be in the midst  thereof. [16] And these shall be the measures  thereof; 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.  [17] And the suburbs  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.  [18] And the residue  in length  over against  the oblation  of the holy  portion shall be ten  thousand  eastward,  and ten  thousand  westward:  and it shall be over against  the oblation  of the holy  portion; and the increase  thereof shall be for food  unto them that serve  the city.  [19] And they that serve  the city  shall serve  it out of all the tribes  of Israel.  [20] All the oblation  shall be five  and twenty  thousand  by five  and twenty  thousand:  ye shall offer  the holy  oblation  foursquare,  with the possession  of the city.  [21] And the residue  shall be for the prince,  on the one side and on the other of the holy  oblation,  and of the possession  of the city,  over against  the five  and twenty  thousand  of the oblation  toward the east  border,  and westward  over against  the five  and twenty  thousand  toward the west  border,  over against  the portions  for the prince:  and it shall be the holy  oblation;  and the sanctuary  of the house  shall be in the midst  thereof. [22] Moreover from the possession  of the Levites,  and from the possession  of the city,  being in the midst  of that which is the prince's,  between the border  of Judah  and the border  of Benjamin,  shall be for the prince.  [23] As for the rest  of the tribes,  from the east  side  unto the west  side,  Benjamin  shall have a  [24] And by the border  of Benjamin,  from the east  side  unto the west  side,  Simeon  shall have a  [25] And by the border  of Simeon,  from the east  side  unto the west  side,  Issachar  [26] And by the border  of Issachar,  from the east  side  unto the west  side,  Zebulun  [27] And by the border  of Zebulun,  from the east  side  unto the west  side,  Gad  [28] And by the border  of Gad,  at the south  side  southward,  the border  shall be even from Tamar  unto the waters  of strife  in Kadesh,  and to the river  toward the great  sea.  [29] This is the land  which ye shall divide  by lot unto the tribes  of Israel  for inheritance,  and these are their portions,  saith  the Lord  GOD.
