For the priests who are sanctified of the sons of Zadok, who have kept My charge, who erred not in the erring of the sons of Israel, as the Levites erred,
12 And it shall be unto them an oblation from the oblation of the land, a thing most holy, by the border of the Levites.

29 This is the land which ye shall divide by lot unto the tribes of Israel for inheritance, and these are their several portions, saith the Lord GOD.
This [is] the land that ye separate by inheritance to the tribes of Israel, and these [are] their portions — an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.
30 And these are the goings out of the city; on the north side four thousand and five hundred [reeds] by measure:
