[[Ezekiel 47|<< Ezekiel 47]] | [[Ezekiel|Ezekiel]] | [[Daniel 1|Daniel 1 >>]] ### Ezekiel 48 1 NOW these _are_ the names of the tribes. From the north end to the coast of the way of Hethlon, as one goes to Hamath, Hazar-enan, the border of Damascus northward, to the coast of Hamath; for these are his sides east _and_ west; a _portion_ _for_ Dan. ^1 2 And by the border of Dan, from the east side unto the west side, a _portion_ _for_ Asher. ^2 3 And by the border of Asher, from the east side even unto the west side, a _portion_ _for_ Naphtali. ^3 4 And by the border of Naphtali, from the east side unto the west side, a _portion_ _for_ Manasseh. ^4 5 And by the border of Manasseh, from the east side unto the west side, a _portion_ _for_ Ephraim. ^5 6 And by the border of Ephraim, from the east side even unto the west side, a _portion_ _for_ Reuben. ^6 7 And by the border of Reuben, from the east side unto the west side, a _portion_ _for_ Judah. ^7 8 ¶ And by the border of Judah, from the east side unto the west side, shall be the offering which ye shall offer of twenty-five 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. ^8 9 The oblation that ye shall offer unto the LORD _shall_ _be_ of twenty-five thousand in length, and of ten thousand in breadth. ^9 10 And for them, _even_ for the priests, shall be _this_ holy oblation; toward the north twenty-five thousand _in_ _length_, and toward the west ten thousand in breadth, and toward the east ten thousand in breadth, and toward the south twenty-five thousand in length: and the sanctuary of the LORD shall be in the midst thereof. ^10 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. ^11 12 And _this_ oblation of the land that is offered shall be unto them a thing most holy by the border of the Levites. ^12 13 And over against the border of the priests the Levites _shall_ _have_ twenty-five thousand in length, and ten thousand in breadth: all the length _shall_ _be_ twenty-five thousand, and the breadth ten thousand. ^13 14 And they shall not sell of it, neither exchange, nor alienate the firstfruits of the land: for _it_ _is_ holy unto the LORD. ^14 15 ¶ And the five thousand, that are left in the breadth over against the twenty-five thousand, shall be a profane _place_ for the city, for dwelling, and for suburbs: and the city shall be in the midst thereof. ^15 16 And these _shall_ _be_ the measures thereof; the north side four thousand five hundred, and the south side four thousand five hundred, and on the east side four thousand five hundred, and the west side four thousand five hundred. ^16 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. ^17 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. ^18 19 And they that serve the city shall serve it out of all the tribes of Israel. ^19 20 All the oblation _shall_ _be_ twenty-five thousand by twenty-five thousand: ye shall offer the holy oblation foursquare, with the possession of the city. ^20 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 twenty-five thousand of the oblation toward the east border, and westward over against the twenty-five 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. ^21 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. ^22 23 As for the rest of the tribes, from the east side unto the west side, Benjamin _shall_ _have_ a _portion_. ^23 24 And by the border of Benjamin, from the east side unto the west side, Simeon _shall_ _have_ a _portion_. ^24 25 And by the border of Simeon, from the east side unto the west side, Issachar a _portion_. ^25 26 And by the border of Issachar, from the east side unto the west side, Zebulun a _portion_. ^26 27 And by the border of Zebulun, from the east side unto the west side, Gad a _portion_. ^27 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. ^28 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. ^29 30 ¶ And these _are_ the goings out of the city on the north side, four thousand five hundred measures. ^30 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. ^31 32 And at the east side four thousand five hundred: and three gates; and one gate of Joseph, one gate of Benjamin, one gate of Dan. ^32 33 And at the south side four thousand five hundred measures: and three gates; one gate of Simeon, one gate of Issachar, one gate of Zebulun. ^33 34 At the west side four thousand five hundred, _with_ their three gates; one gate of Gad, one gate of Asher, one gate of Naphtali. ^34 35 _It_ _was_ round about eighteen thousand _measures:_ and the name of the city from _that_ day _shall_ _be_, The LORD _is_ there. ^35
