Ezekiel

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 there.
