Ezekiel 48
Complete Jewish Bible
48 “‘Following is the list of tribes:
“‘This is Dan’s territory: from the north end, through Hetlon to the entrance of Hamat, Hatzar-‘Einan (at the border of Dammesek), northward, next to Hamat; and they will have their sides east and west.
2 “‘Asher’s territory will run alongside the territory of Dan from east to west.
3 “‘Naftali’s territory will run alongside the territory of Asher from east to west.
4 “‘M’nasheh’s territory will run alongside the territory of Naftali from east to west.
5 “‘Efrayim’s territory will run alongside the territory of M’nasheh from east to west.
6 “‘Re’uven’s territory will run alongside the territory of Efrayim from east to west.
7 “‘Y’hudah’s territory will run alongside the territory of Re’uven from east to west.
8 “‘Alongside the territory of Y’hudah, from east to west, will be the offering you are to set aside, 25,000 [cubits] wide [eight miles], and in length equal to distance between the east and west boundaries of one of the portions, with the sanctuary inside it. 9 The offering you are to set aside for Adonai is to be eight [miles] long and three wide. 10 This holy offering will be for the cohanim; it will be eight [miles] in length along its north and south sides and three in width along its west and east sides; Adonai’s sanctuary will be inside it. 11 The portion set aside as holy will be for the cohanim who are descendants of Tzadok that remained faithful to my commission and did not go astray when the people of Isra’el and the L’vi’im went astray. 12 It is to be an especially holy portion set apart for them and taken from the offering of the land, next to the border of the L’vi’im.
13 “ ‘Alongside the territory for the cohanim, the L’vi’im are to have a portion eight [miles] long and three wide — its total length will be eight and its width three. 14 They may not sell, exchange or alienate any of this choice land; because it is holy, for Adonai.
15 “‘The 5,000 [cubits, that is, the one-and-a-half miles] that are left of the width is to be for the common use of the city, for housing and for open fields. The city will be inside it. 16 and will measure 4,500 cubits [just under one-and-a-half miles] along each of its sides — north, south, east and west. 17 The city is to have outside it a border of land 440 feet wide on each side — north, south, east and west. 18 A strip next to the holy offering extending three [miles] to the east and three to the west is to be left. This area by the holy offering is to be used to grow food for those serving the city. 19 The people from all the tribes of Isra’el who serve in the city will farm it. 20 The entire offering will be eight [miles] square, including the section for the city.
21 “‘What remains will be for the prince — the land on the two sides of the holy offering and section for the city, that is, the portion eastward from the eight [miles] of the offering’s eastern border to the land’s eastern border and the portion westward from the eight [miles] of the offering’s western border to the land’s western border — this land adjacent to the [tribal] portions will be for the prince, with the holy offering and the sanctuary of the house inside it. 22 Thus the land belonging to the L’vi’im and the section for the city will be inside that which belongs to the prince.
“‘The territory belonging to the prince will be between the territory of Y’hudah and the territory of Binyamin — 23 which brings us to the rest of the tribes:
“‘Binyamin’s territory will run from east to west.
24 “‘Shim‘on’s territory will run alongside the territory of Binyamin from east to west.
25 “‘Yissakhar’s territory will run alongside the territory of Shim‘on from east to west.
26 “‘Z’vulun’s territory will run alongside the territory of Yissakhar from east to west.
27 “‘Gad’s territory will run alongside the territory of Z’vulun from east to west.
28 “‘Alongside the territory of Gad, from the Negev southward, the border will run from Tamar to the water at M’rivat-Kadesh, then to the Vadi [of Egypt], and on to the Great Sea. 29 This is the land you are to distribute by lot to the tribes of Isra’el for inheritance, and these are their portions,’ says Adonai Elohim.
30-34 “‘These are the city exits; they are to be named after the tribes of Isra’el, three gates on each of the four sides; the four sides each measure just under one-and-a-half [miles]: on the north, gates named after Re’uven, Y’hudah and Levi; on the east, gates named after Yosef, Binyamin and Dan; on the south, gates named after Shim‘on, Yissakhar and Z’vulun; and on the west, gates named after Gad, Asher and Naftali.
35 “‘The perimeter of [the city] will be just under six [miles] long. And from that day on the name of the city will be Adonai Shamah [Adonai is there].’”

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.

以西结书 48
Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Simplified)
十二支派所得之地
48 “众支派按名所得之地记在下面：从北头，由希特伦往哈马口，到大马士革地界上的哈萨以难，北边靠着哈马地（各支派的地都有东西的边界），是但的一份。 2 挨着但的地界，从东到西，是亚设的一份。 3 挨着亚设的地界，从东到西，是拿弗他利的一份。 4 挨着拿弗他利的地界，从东到西，是玛拿西的一份。 5 挨着玛拿西的地界，从东到西，是以法莲的一份。 6 挨着以法莲的地界，从东到西，是鲁本的一份。 7 挨着鲁本的地界，从东到西，是犹大的一份。
当献之地
8 “挨着犹大的地界，从东到西，必有你们所当献的供地，宽二万五千肘。从东界到西界，长短与各份之地相同，圣地当在其中。 9 你们献于耶和华的供地要长二万五千肘，宽一万肘。 10 这圣供地要归于祭司，北长二万五千肘，西宽一万肘，东宽一万肘，南长二万五千肘，耶和华的圣地当在其中。 11 这地要归于撒督的子孙中成为圣的祭司，就是那守我所吩咐的，当以色列人走迷的时候，他们不像那些利未人走迷了。 12 这要归于他们为供地，是全地中至圣的。供地挨着利未人的地界。
13 “利未人所得的地要长二万五千肘，宽一万肘，与祭司的地界相等，都长二万五千肘，宽一万肘。 14 这地不可卖，不可换，初熟之物也不可归于别人，因为是归耶和华为圣的。
归城之地
15 “这二万五千肘前面所剩下五千肘宽之地，要做俗用，作为造城、盖房、郊野之地。城要在当中。 16 城的尺寸乃是如此：北面四千五百肘，南面四千五百肘，东面四千五百肘，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，向东二百五十肘，向西二百五十肘。 18 靠着圣供地的余地，东长一万肘，西长一万肘，要与圣供地相等，其中的土产要做城内工人的食物。 19 所有以色列支派中在城内做工的，都要耕种这地。 20 你们所献的圣供地连归城之地，是四方的，长二万五千肘，宽二万五千肘。
归王之地
21 “圣供地连归城之地，两边的余地要归于王。供地东边南北二万五千肘，东至东界，西边南北二万五千肘，西至西界，与各份之地相同，都要归王。圣供地和殿的圣地要在其中。 22 并且利未人之地与归城之地的东西两边延长之地（这两地在王地中间），就是在犹大和便雅悯两界中间，要归于王。
23 “论到其余的支派，从东到西，是便雅悯的一份。 24 挨着便雅悯的地界，从东到西，是西缅的一份。 25 挨着西缅的地界，从东到西，是以萨迦的一份。 26 挨着以萨迦的地界，从东到西，是西布伦的一份。 27 挨着西布伦的地界，从东到西，是迦得的一份。 28 迦得地的南界是从他玛到米利巴加低斯的水，延到埃及小河，直到大海。 29 这就是你们要拈阄分给以色列支派为业之地，乃是他们各支派所得之份。这是主耶和华说的。
城之局量
30 “城的北面四千五百肘，出城之处如下。 31 城的各门要按以色列支派的名字。北面有三门，一为鲁本门，一为犹大门，一为利未门。 32 东面四千五百肘，有三门，一为约瑟门，一为便雅悯门，一为但门。 33 南面四千五百肘，有三门，一为西缅门，一为以萨迦门，一为西布伦门。 34 西面四千五百肘，有三门，一为迦得门，一为亚设门，一为拿弗他利门。 35 城四围共一万八千肘。从此以后，这城的名字必称为‘耶和华的所在’。”
