Ezekiel 45:7-9
Lexham English Bible
7 And a portion will be for[a] the prince on both sides[b] of the holy district,[c] and both sides of the property of the city, and alongside[d] the property of the city on the west,[e] and alongside the property on the east.[f] And also its length[g] corresponds to one of the tribal portions to the west[h] running to the eastern border.[i] 8 This shall be to him with respect to the land[j] as property in Israel; and so my princes shall not again oppress my people, but they shall give the land to the house of Israel according to their tribes.”
9 Thus says the Lord Yahweh, “Enough of this for you, the princes of Israel; put away violence and destruction and do justice and righteousness; revoke your acts of dispossession from upon[k] my people!” declares[l] the Lord Yahweh.
