Ezekiel 48:8-14

New English Translation

⁸ “Next to the border of Judah from the east side to the west side will be the allotment you must set apart. It is to be 8¼ miles^[a] wide, and the same length as one of the tribal portions, from the east side to the west side; the sanctuary will be in the middle of it. ⁹ The allotment you set apart to the Lord will be 8¼ miles^[b] in length and 3⅓ miles^[c] in width. ¹⁰ These will be the allotments for the holy portion: for the priests, toward the north 8¼ miles^[d] in length, toward the west 3⅓ miles^[e] in width, toward the east 3⅓ miles^[f] in width, and toward the south 8¼ miles^[g] in length; the sanctuary of the Lord will be in the middle. ¹¹ This 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, as the Levites did.^{[h] 12} It will be their portion from the allotment of the land, a Most Holy Place, next to the border of the Levites.

¹³ “Alongside the border of the priests, the Levites will have an allotment 8¼ miles^[i] in length and 3⅓ miles^[j] in width. The whole length will be 8¼ miles^[k] and the width 3⅓ miles.^{[l] 14} They must not sell or exchange any of it; they must not transfer this choice portion of land, for it is set apart^[m] to the Lord.
