Chapter 48 |
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; a portion for Dan. |
2 | And by the border of Dan, from the east
side unto the west side, a portion for Asher. |
3 | And by the border of Asher, from the east
side even unto the west side, a portion for Naphtali. |
4 | And by the border of Naphtali, from the
east side unto the west side, a portion for Manasseh. |
5 | And by the border of Manasseh, from the
east side unto the west side, a portion for Ephraim. |
6 | And by the border of Ephraim, from the east
side even unto the west side, a portion for Reuben. |
7 | And by the border of Reuben, from the east
side unto the west side, a 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 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. |
24 | And by the border of Benjamin, from the
east side unto the west side, Simeon shall have a portion. |
25 | And by the border of Simeon, from the east
side unto the west side, Issachar a portion. |
26 | And by the border of Issachar, from the
east side unto the west side, Zebulun a portion. |
27 | And by the border of Zebulun, from the
east side unto the west side, Gad a portion. |
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. |
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 1there.
