Ezekiel 48:14-16

Expanded Bible

¹⁵ “The rest of the area will be ·about one and one-half miles [^Lfive thousand cubits] wide and ·seven miles [^Ltwenty-five thousand cubits] long. It will ·not be holy but [be for common use and] will belong to the city and be used for homes and pastures. The city will be in the middle of it. ¹⁶ These are the city’s measurements: the north side will be ·about one mile [^Lfour thousand five hundred cubits], the south side ·about one mile [^Lfour thousand five hundred cubits], the east side ·about one mile [^Lfour thousand five hundred cubits], and the west side ·about one mile [^Lfour thousand five hundred cubits].
