12 It will be for them a portion set apart from the offering of the land, most holy, by the border of the Levites.
13 Alongside the border of the kohanim, the Levites will have 25,000 in length and 10,000 in width. The entire length will be 25,000 and the width 10,000.
14 They must not sell or exchange any of it or transfer the choice portion of the land, for it is holy to Adonai.
15 The 5,000 that remain in the width, in front of the 25,000 thousand, will be for common use, for the city, for living and for pastureland. “The city will be in the midst of it,
16 and will have these measurements: the north side; 4,500; the south side 4,500; the east side, 4,500; and the west side, 4,500.
17 The city will have open land: toward the north 250, toward the south 250, toward the east 250, and toward the west 250.
18 The remainder of the length, according to the holy allotment, will be 10,000 eastward and 10,000 westward. It will be alongside the holy allotment. Its produce will be food for those who serve the city.
