In it will be the sanctuary, the Most Holy Place. ⁴It will be the sacred portion of the land for the priests,^(D) who minister in the sanctuary and who draw near to minister before the Lord. It will be a place for their houses as well as a holy place for the sanctuary.^(E) ⁵An area 25,000 cubits long and 10,000 cubits wide will belong to the Levites, who serve in the temple, as their possession for towns to live in.^[g]^(F)

⁶“‘You are to give the city as its property an area 5,000 cubits^[h] wide and 25,000 cubits long, adjoining the sacred portion; it will belong to all Israel.^(G)

⁷“‘The prince will have the land bordering each side of the area formed by the sacred district and the property of the city. It will extend westward from the west side and eastward from the east side, running lengthwise from the western to the eastern border parallel to one of the tribal portions.^(H) ⁸This land will be his possession in Israel. And my princes will no longer oppress my people but will allow the people of Israel to possess the land according to their tribes.^(I)

⁹“‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: You have gone far enough, princes of Israel! Give up your violence and oppression^(J) and do what is just and right.^(K) Stop dispossessing my people, declares the Sovereign Lord.
