The (place of the) first fruits which ye shall (set) (a)part to the Lord, the length shall be in five and twenty thousand, and the breadth in ten thousand. (The place of the first fruits which ye shall set apart for the Lord, the length shall be twenty-five thousand, and the breadth shall be ten thousand/and the breadth shall be twenty thousand.)

(And this shall be the portion of the place of the first fruits for the priests; to the north twenty-five thousand in length, and to the west ten thousand in breadth; and to the east ten thousand in breadth, and to the south twenty-five thousand in length; and the sanctuary of the Lord shall be in its midst.)
