3 And with this measure, you shall measure a length of twenty-five thousand, and a width of ten thousand, and within it shall be the temple and the Holy of Holies.
And from the measured area this you will measure a length (five *Q(K)*) and twenty thousand [cubits] and a breadth ten thousand [cubits] and in it it will be the sanctuary a holy place of holy places.
4 The sanctified portion of the land shall be for the priests, the ministers of the sanctuary, who approach for the ministry of the Lord. And it shall be a place for their houses, and for the holy place of the sanctuary.

6 And you shall appoint a possession in the city of five thousand in width, and twenty-five thousand in length, in accord with the separation of the sanctuary, for the entire house of Israel.
And [the] possession of the city you will give five thousand [cubits] breadth and length five and twenty thousand [cubits] close to [the] contribution of holiness to all [the] house of Israel it will belong.
7 Appoint the same for the prince, on one side and on the other, in the separation of the sanctuary, and in the possession of the city, opposite the face of the separation of the sanctuary, and opposite the face of the possession of the city, from the side of the sea even to the sea, and from the side of the east even to the east. And the length shall be just as in each part, from the western border even to the eastern border.
And [will belong] to the prince from this and from this of [the] contribution of holiness and of [the] possession of the city to [the] face of [the] contribution of holiness and to [the] face of [the] possession of the city from [the] side of [the] west west-ward and from [the] side of east-ward east-ward and length corresponding to one of the portions from [the] border of [the] west to [the] border of east-ward.

To the land it will belong to him to a possession in Israel and not they will oppress again princes my people my and the land they will give to [the] house of Israel to tribes their.
9 Thus says the Lord God: Let this be sufficient for you, O princes of Israel! Cease from iniquity and robberies, and execute judgment and justice. Separate your confines from my people, says the Lord God.
Thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh enough for you O princes of Israel injustice and violence remove and justice and righteousness do remove eviction your from on people my [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.
10 You shall have just scales, and a just unit of dry measure, and a just unit of liquid measure.

11 The units of dry and liquid measure shall be one uniform measure, so that a bath contains one tenth part of a cor, and an ephah contains one tenth part of a cor; each shall be of equal volume in accord with the measure of a cor.

15 And take one ram from each flock of two hundred, out of those that Israel tends for sacrifice and holocausts and peace offerings, in order to make an expiation for them, says the Lord God.
And a sheep one from the flock from the two hundred from [the] well-watered land of Israel to a grain offering and to a burnt offering and to peace offerings to make atonement on them [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.
16 All the people of the land will take hold of these first-fruits for the prince in Israel.

19 And the priest shall take from the blood that will be for the sin offering. And he shall place it on the doorposts of the house, and on the four corners of the rim of the altar, and on the posts of the gate of the inner court.
And he will take the priest some of [the] blood of the sin offering and he will put [it] to [the] doorpost of the house and to [the] four [the] corners of the ledge of the altar and on [the] doorpost of [the] gate of the courtyard inner.
20 And so shall you do on the seventh day of the month, on behalf of each one who was ignorant or who was deceived by error. And you shall make expiation for the house.
