Ezekiel 48
New King James Version
Division of the Land
48 “Now these are the names of the tribes: (A)From the northern border along the road to Hethlon at the entrance of Hamath, to Hazar Enan, the border of Damascus northward, in the direction of Hamath, there shall be one section for (B)Dan from its east to its west side; 2 by the border of Dan, from the east side to the west, one section for (C)Asher; 3 by the border of Asher, from the east side to the west, one section for (D)Naphtali; 4 by the border of Naphtali, from the east side to the west, one section for (E)Manasseh; 5 by the border of Manasseh, from the east side to the west, one section for (F)Ephraim; 6 by the border of Ephraim, from the east side to the west, one section for (G)Reuben; 7 by the border of Reuben, from the east side to the west, one section for (H)Judah; 8 by the border of Judah, from the east side to the west, shall be (I)the district which you shall set apart, twenty-five thousand cubits in width, and in length the same as one of the other portions, from the east side to the west, with the (J)sanctuary in the center.
9 “The district that you shall set apart for the Lord shall be twenty-five thousand cubits in length and ten thousand in width. 10 To these—to the priests—the holy district shall belong: on the north twenty-five thousand cubits in length, on the west ten thousand in width, on the east ten thousand in width, and on the south twenty-five thousand in length. The sanctuary of the Lord shall be in the center. 11 (K)It shall be for the priests of the sons of Zadok, who are sanctified, who have kept My charge, who did not go astray when the children of Israel went astray, (L)as the Levites went astray. 12 And this district of land that is set apart shall be to them a thing most (M)holy by the border of the Levites.
13 “Opposite the border of the priests, the (N)Levites shall have an area twenty-five thousand cubits in length and ten thousand in width; its entire length shall be twenty-five thousand and its width ten thousand. 14 (O)And they shall not sell or exchange any of it; they may not alienate this best part of the land, for it is holy to the Lord.
15 (P)“The five thousand cubits in width that remain, along the edge of the twenty-five thousand, shall be (Q)for general use by the city, for dwellings and common-land; and the city shall be in the center. 16 These shall be its measurements: the north side four thousand five hundred cubits, the south side four thousand five hundred, the east side four thousand five hundred, and the west side four thousand five hundred. 17 The common-land of the city shall be: to the north two hundred and fifty cubits, to the south two hundred and fifty, to the east two hundred and fifty, and to the west two hundred and fifty. 18 The rest of the length, alongside the district of the holy section, shall be ten thousand cubits to the east and ten thousand to the west. It shall be adjacent to the district of the holy section, and its produce shall be food for the workers of the city. 19 (R)The workers of the city, from all the tribes of Israel, shall cultivate it. 20 The entire district shall be twenty-five thousand cubits by twenty-five thousand cubits, foursquare. You shall set apart the holy district with the property of the city.
21 (S)“The rest shall belong to the prince, on one side and on the other of the holy district and of the city’s property, next to the twenty-five thousand cubits of the holy district as far as the eastern border, and westward next to the twenty-five thousand as far as the western border, adjacent to the tribal portions; it shall belong to the prince. It shall be the holy district, (T)and the sanctuary of the [a]temple shall be in the center. 22 Moreover, apart from the possession of the Levites and the possession of the city which are in the midst of what belongs to the prince, the area between the border of Judah and the border of (U)Benjamin shall belong to the prince.
23 “As for the rest of the tribes, from the east side to the west, Benjamin shall have one section; 24 by the border of Benjamin, from the east side to the west, (V)Simeon shall have one section; 25 by the border of Simeon, from the east side to the west, (W)Issachar shall have one section; 26 by the border of Issachar, from the east side to the west, (X)Zebulun shall have one section; 27 by the border of Zebulun, from the east side to the west, (Y)Gad shall have one section; 28 by the border of Gad, on the south side, toward the [b]South, the border shall be from Tamar to (Z)the waters of [c]Meribah by Kadesh, along the brook to the (AA)Great Sea. 29 (AB)This is the land which you shall divide by lot as an inheritance among the tribes of Israel, and these are their portions,” says the Lord God.
The Gates of the City and Its Name
30 “These are the exits of the city. On the north side, measuring four thousand five hundred cubits 31 (AC)(the gates of the city shall be named after the tribes of Israel), the three gates northward: one gate for Reuben, one gate for Judah, and one gate for Levi; 32 on the east side, four thousand five hundred cubits, three gates: one gate for Joseph, one gate for Benjamin, and one gate for Dan; 33 on the south side, measuring four thousand five hundred cubits, three gates: one gate for Simeon, one gate for Issachar, and one gate for Zebulun; 34 on the west side, four thousand five hundred cubits with their three gates: one gate for Gad, one gate for Asher, and one gate for Naphtali. 35 All the way around shall be eighteen thousand cubits; (AD)and the name of the city from that day shall be: (AE)THE[d] LORD IS THERE.”

Bibelen på hverdagsdansk
Landet fordeles mellem stammerne
48 Det følgende er en fortegnelse over alle stammerne og det område, de hver især får tildelt:
Dans stamme: Fra det nordvestlige hjørne ved Middelhavet ind til Hetlon; derfra til Lebo-Hamat og videre til Hatzar-Enon på grænsen mellem Damaskus i syd og Hamat i nord. Det er en strimmel tværs over landet fra øst til vest. 2 Ashers område ligger syd for Dans med de samme grænser mod øst og vest. 3 Naftalis område ligger syd for Ashers med de samme grænser mod øst og vest. 4 Manasses område ligger syd for Naftalis med de samme grænser mod øst og vest. 5-7 Syd for Manasses område ligger Efraims, og derefter følger Rubens og Judas områder, alle med de samme grænser mod øst og vest.
8 Syd for Judas område ligger det landområde, som er til Herren, kongen og præsterne. Det har samme grænser mod øst og vest som stammeområderne, og er 12,5 km bredt. Templet skal placeres midt i præsternes jordstykke, 9 der er 12,5 km langt og 5 km bredt.
10 Rundt omkring templet får præsterne tildelt et jordstykke, der er 12,5 km langt på den nordlige og sydlige side af templet og 5 km bredt på den østlige og vestlige side. 11 De præster, der her er tale om, er Zadoks efterkommere, der ikke lod sig lokke til synd sådan som Israels folk og resten af Levis stamme. 12-13 Det skal være deres særlige arvelod af den hellige jord, når landet fordeles mellem stammerne. Ved siden af præsternes jord skal der være et jordstykke til de øvrige levitter. Det skal være 12,5 km langt og 5 km bredt. 14 Intet af den hellige jord må udstykkes til andre ved salg eller bytte, for den tilhører Herren.
15 Et jordstykke 12,5 km langt og 2,5 km bredt syd for den hellige jord skal tilhøre byen og bruges til boliger og græsgange, og byen skal ligge i midten. 16 Byen skal være 2,25 km på alle fire sider. 17 Uden om byen skal der afsættes en strimmel på 125 m til græsgang. 18 Den øvrige jord, de 5 km, som ligger vest for byen, og de 5 km, som ligger øst for byen langs den hellige jord, skal opdyrkes og brødføde byens befolkning. 19 Folk fra alle Israels stammer skal bo i byen og opdyrke jorden.
20 Den hellige jord og jorden til byen med tilstødende marker udgør tilsammen et kvadrat, der måler 12,5 km på hver led. 21-22 Jorden på vestsiden og østsiden af dette kvadrat, helt ud til landets grænser mod vest og øst, tilhører regenten, således at den hellige jord og byzonen ligger i midten. Det grænser til Judas område mod nord og til Benjamins område mod syd.
23 Syd for Herrens område ligger altså Benjamins område, og det strækker sig tværs over hele landet fra øst til vest. 24 Syd for Benjamins område ligger Simeons, som også strækker sig tværs over landet. 25-28 Derefter følger Issakars, Zebulons og Gads områder, der også strækker sig tværs over landet. Gads sydgrænse går fra Tamar i øst ned mod kilderne ved Meribat-Kadesh og følger derefter bækken, der danner grænse til Egypten, ud til Middelhavet. 29 Det er de jordlodder, som stammerne får i arv og eje, siger Gud Herren.
30-31 Hver af byens porte skal opkaldes efter en af Israels stammer. I den 2,25 km lange nordmur skal der være tre porte, som opkaldes efter Ruben, Juda og Levi. 32 I den 2,25 km lange østmur skal der være tre porte, som opkaldes efter Josef, Benjamin og Dan. 33 I den 2,25 km lange sydmur skal der være tre porte, som opkaldes efter Simeon, Issakar og Zebulon. 34 Og i den 2,25 km lange vestmur skal der være tre porte, som opkaldes efter Gad, Asher og Naftali.
35 Byens omkreds er 9 km, og byens navn skal herefter være ‚Herren er der’.”
Ezekiel 48
New International Version
The Division of the Land
48 “These are the tribes, listed by name: At the northern frontier, Dan(A) will have one portion; it will follow the Hethlon road(B) to Lebo Hamath;(C) Hazar Enan and the northern border of Damascus next to Hamath will be part of its border from the east side to the west side.
2 “Asher(D) will have one portion; it will border the territory of Dan from east to west.
3 “Naphtali(E) will have one portion; it will border the territory of Asher from east to west.
4 “Manasseh(F) will have one portion; it will border the territory of Naphtali from east to west.
5 “Ephraim(G) will have one portion; it will border the territory of Manasseh(H) from east to west.(I)
6 “Reuben(J) will have one portion; it will border the territory of Ephraim from east to west.
7 “Judah(K) will have one portion; it will border the territory of Reuben from east to west.
8 “Bordering the territory of Judah from east to west will be the portion you are to present as a special gift. It will be 25,000 cubits[a] wide, and its length from east to west will equal one of the tribal portions; the sanctuary will be in the center of it.(L)
9 “The special portion you are to offer to the Lord will be 25,000 cubits long and 10,000 cubits[b] wide.(M) 10 This will be the sacred portion for the priests. It will be 25,000 cubits long on the north side, 10,000 cubits wide on the west side, 10,000 cubits wide on the east side and 25,000 cubits long on the south side. In the center of it will be the sanctuary of the Lord.(N) 11 This will be for the consecrated priests, the Zadokites,(O) who were faithful in serving me(P) and did not go astray as the Levites did when the Israelites went astray.(Q) 12 It will be a special gift to them from the sacred portion of the land, a most holy portion, bordering the territory of the Levites.
13 “Alongside the territory of the priests, the Levites will have an allotment 25,000 cubits long and 10,000 cubits wide. Its total length will be 25,000 cubits and its width 10,000 cubits.(R) 14 They must not sell or exchange any of it. This is the best of the land and must not pass into other hands, because it is holy to the Lord.(S)
15 “The remaining area, 5,000 cubits[c] wide and 25,000 cubits long, will be for the common use of the city, for houses and for pastureland. The city will be in the center of it 16 and will have these measurements: the north side 4,500 cubits,[d] the south side 4,500 cubits, the east side 4,500 cubits, and the west side 4,500 cubits.(T) 17 The pastureland for the city will be 250 cubits[e] on the north, 250 cubits on the south, 250 cubits on the east, and 250 cubits on the west. 18 What remains of the area, bordering on the sacred portion and running the length of it, will be 10,000 cubits on the east side and 10,000 cubits on the west side. Its produce will supply food for the workers of the city.(U) 19 The workers from the city who farm it will come from all the tribes of Israel. 20 The entire portion will be a square, 25,000 cubits on each side. As a special gift you will set aside the sacred portion, along with the property of the city.
21 “What remains on both sides of the area formed by the sacred portion and the property of the city will belong to the prince. It will extend eastward from the 25,000 cubits of the sacred portion to the eastern border, and westward from the 25,000 cubits to the western border. Both these areas running the length of the tribal portions will belong to the prince, and the sacred portion with the temple sanctuary will be in the center of them.(V) 22 So the property of the Levites and the property of the city will lie in the center of the area that belongs to the prince. The area belonging to the prince will lie between the border of Judah and the border of Benjamin.
23 “As for the rest of the tribes: Benjamin(W) will have one portion; it will extend from the east side to the west side.
24 “Simeon(X) will have one portion; it will border the territory of Benjamin from east to west.
25 “Issachar(Y) will have one portion; it will border the territory of Simeon from east to west.
26 “Zebulun(Z) will have one portion; it will border the territory of Issachar from east to west.
27 “Gad(AA) will have one portion; it will border the territory of Zebulun from east to west.
28 “The southern boundary of Gad will run south from Tamar(AB) to the waters of Meribah Kadesh, then along the Wadi of Egypt to the Mediterranean Sea.(AC)
29 “This is the land you are to allot as an inheritance to the tribes of Israel, and these will be their portions,” declares the Sovereign Lord.(AD)
The Gates of the New City
30 “These will be the exits of the city: Beginning on the north side, which is 4,500 cubits long, 31 the gates of the city will be named after the tribes of Israel. The three gates on the north side will be the gate of Reuben, the gate of Judah and the gate of Levi.
32 “On the east side, which is 4,500 cubits long, will be three gates: the gate of Joseph, the gate of Benjamin and the gate of Dan.
33 “On the south side, which measures 4,500 cubits, will be three gates: the gate of Simeon, the gate of Issachar and the gate of Zebulun.
34 “On the west side, which is 4,500 cubits long, will be three gates: the gate of Gad, the gate of Asher and the gate of Naphtali.(AE)
35 “The distance all around will be 18,000 cubits.[f]
“And the name of the city from that time on will be:
the Lord is there.(AF)”

十二支派所得之地
48 「眾支派按名所得之地記在下面:從北頭,由希特倫往哈馬口,到大馬士革地界上的哈薩以難,北邊靠著哈馬地(各支派的地都有東西的邊界),是但的一份。 2 挨著但的地界,從東到西,是亞設的一份。 3 挨著亞設的地界,從東到西,是拿弗他利的一份。 4 挨著拿弗他利的地界,從東到西,是瑪拿西的一份。 5 挨著瑪拿西的地界,從東到西,是以法蓮的一份。 6 挨著以法蓮的地界,從東到西,是魯本的一份。 7 挨著魯本的地界,從東到西,是猶大的一份。
當獻之地
8 「挨著猶大的地界,從東到西,必有你們所當獻的供地,寬二萬五千肘。從東界到西界,長短與各份之地相同,聖地當在其中。 9 你們獻於耶和華的供地要長二萬五千肘,寬一萬肘。 10 這聖供地要歸於祭司,北長二萬五千肘,西寬一萬肘,東寬一萬肘,南長二萬五千肘,耶和華的聖地當在其中。 11 這地要歸於撒督的子孫中成為聖的祭司,就是那守我所吩咐的,當以色列人走迷的時候,他們不像那些利未人走迷了。 12 這要歸於他們為供地,是全地中至聖的。供地挨著利未人的地界。
13 「利未人所得的地要長二萬五千肘,寬一萬肘,與祭司的地界相等,都長二萬五千肘,寬一萬肘。 14 這地不可賣,不可換,初熟之物也不可歸於別人,因為是歸耶和華為聖的。
歸城之地
15 「這二萬五千肘前面所剩下五千肘寬之地,要做俗用,作為造城、蓋房、郊野之地。城要在當中。 16 城的尺寸乃是如此:北面四千五百肘,南面四千五百肘,東面四千五百肘,西面四千五百肘。 17 城必有郊野,向北二百五十肘,向南二百五十肘,向東二百五十肘,向西二百五十肘。 18 靠著聖供地的餘地,東長一萬肘,西長一萬肘,要與聖供地相等,其中的土產要做城內工人的食物。 19 所有以色列支派中在城內做工的,都要耕種這地。 20 你們所獻的聖供地連歸城之地,是四方的,長二萬五千肘,寬二萬五千肘。
歸王之地
21 「聖供地連歸城之地,兩邊的餘地要歸於王。供地東邊南北二萬五千肘,東至東界,西邊南北二萬五千肘,西至西界,與各份之地相同,都要歸王。聖供地和殿的聖地要在其中。 22 並且利未人之地與歸城之地的東西兩邊延長之地(這兩地在王地中間),就是在猶大和便雅憫兩界中間,要歸於王。
23 「論到其餘的支派,從東到西,是便雅憫的一份。 24 挨著便雅憫的地界,從東到西,是西緬的一份。 25 挨著西緬的地界,從東到西,是以薩迦的一份。 26 挨著以薩迦的地界,從東到西,是西布倫的一份。 27 挨著西布倫的地界,從東到西,是迦得的一份。 28 迦得地的南界是從他瑪到米利巴加低斯的水,延到埃及小河,直到大海。 29 這就是你們要拈鬮分給以色列支派為業之地,乃是他們各支派所得之份。這是主耶和華說的。
城之局量
30 「城的北面四千五百肘,出城之處如下。 31 城的各門要按以色列支派的名字。北面有三門,一為魯本門,一為猶大門,一為利未門。 32 東面四千五百肘,有三門,一為約瑟門,一為便雅憫門,一為但門。 33 南面四千五百肘,有三門,一為西緬門,一為以薩迦門,一為西布倫門。 34 西面四千五百肘,有三門,一為迦得門,一為亞設門,一為拿弗他利門。 35 城四圍共一萬八千肘。從此以後,這城的名字必稱為『耶和華的所在』。」

King James Version
48 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; a portion for Dan.

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 of it.
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 of the Lord shall be in the midst thereof.
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 holy 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 portion.

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.
30 And these are the goings out of the city on the north side, four thousand and five hundred measures.
31 And the gates of the city shall be after the names of the tribes of Israel: three gates northward; one gate of Reuben, one gate of Judah, one gate of Levi.
32 And at the east side four thousand and five hundred: and three gates; and one gate of Joseph, one gate of Benjamin, one gate of Dan.
33 And at the south side four thousand and five hundred measures: and three gates; one gate of Simeon, one gate of Issachar, one gate of Zebulun.
34 At the west side four thousand and five hundred, with their three gates; one gate of Gad, one gate of Asher, one gate of Naphtali.
35 It was round about eighteen thousand measures: and the name of the city from that day shall be, The Lord is there.
