Bordering the territory of Judah, from east to west, will be the portion you are to set apart. It will be 25,000 cubits wide, and the length of a tribal portion from east to west. In the center will be the sanctuary.

It will be for the consecrated priests, the descendants of Zadok, who kept My charge and did not go astray as the Levites did when the Israelites went astray.
12 Ọ bụ onyinye pụrụ iche a na-enye ha site nʼala ahụ dị nsọ, bụ ala ahụ kachasị nsọ, nke ya na ala ndị Livayị nwekọrọ oke ala.
It will be a special portion for them set apart from the land, a most holy portion adjacent to the territory of the Levites.
13 “Nʼakụkụ ala ndị nchụaja, a ga-ekenye ndị Livayị ala nke ha. Ha ga-eketa ala nke ogologo ya bụ kilomita iri na atọ, nke obosara ya bụ kilomita ise na ọkara.
Bordering the territory of the priests, the Levites shall have an area 25,000 cubits long and 10,000 cubits wide. The whole length will be 25,000 cubits, and the width 10,000 cubits.
14 O nweghị akụkụ ala nsọ a a ga-ere ere, maọbụ nye ya ndị ọzọ, nʼihi na ihe dị nsọ ka ọ bụ nye Onyenwe anyị.
They must not sell or exchange any of it, and they must not transfer this best part of the land, for it is holy to the LORD.
15 “Ala nke fọdụrụ, nke ogologo ya dị kilomita iri na atọ, nke obosara ya dị kilomita ise na ọkara ga-abụ ala ọha. A ga-ewu ebe obibi nʼelu ya, wukwaa ebe ịzụ anụ ụlọ. Obodo ga-adị nʼetiti ya,
The remaining area, 5,000 cubits wide and 25,000 cubits long, will be for common use by the city, for houses, and for pastureland. The city will be in the center of it
16 nke ogologo akụkụ ugwu ruru kilomita abụọ na ụma anọ, akụkụ ndịda ruru kilomita abụọ na ụma anọ, akụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ ruru kilomita abụọ na ụma anọ, na akụkụ ọdịda anyanwụ rukwara kilomita abụọ na ụma.

18 Ma nke ga-afọdụ na ya, nʼakụkụ oke ala ahụ dị nsọ nke gara ogologo ya niile, ga-abụ nʼakụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ kilomita ise na ọkara nʼakụkụ ọdịda anyanwụ ga-abụkwa kilomita ise na ọkara. Ihe omume ya ga-abụ nri nye ndị ọrụ nke obodo ahụ.
The remainder of the length bordering the holy portion and running adjacent to it will be 10,000 cubits on the east side and 10,000 cubits on the west side. Its produce will supply food for the workers of the city.
19 Ndị ọrụ si nʼobodo, bụ ndị na-akọ ya ga-abụkwa ndị sị nʼebo niile nke Izrel.
The workers of the city who cultivate it will come from all the tribes of Israel.
20 Ala ahụ niile, ma ala ahụ e doro nsọ, ma ala ndị obodo, ga-adị kilomita iri na atọ nʼakụkụ ya ọbụla.
The entire portion will be a square, 25,000 cubits by 25,000 cubits. You are to set apart the holy portion, along with the city property.
21 “Ala niile fọdụrụ nʼakụkụ abụọ nke ala ahụ dị nsọ, na ala ndị obodo ga-abụ nke nwa eze. Ọ ga-agbatị ruo ọwụwa anyanwụ site nʼọtụtụ kilomita iri na atọ nke oke ahụ dọ nsọ ruo nʼoke ala ọwụwa anyanwụ, sitekwa na kilomita iri na atọ nʼakụkụ ọdịda anyanwụ ruo oke ala ọdịda anyanwụ. Akụkụ abụọ ndị a nke gbatịrị ruo nʼoke ala ndị obodo ga-abụ nke onye ọchịchị, ebe nsọ ahụ na ụlọ ukwu ahụ ga-adị nʼetiti ha.
The remaining area on both sides of the holy portion and of the property of the city will belong to the prince. He will own the land adjacent to the tribal portions, extending eastward from the 25,000 cubits of the holy district toward the eastern border, and westward from the 25,000 cubits to the western border. And in the center of them will be the holy portion and the sanctuary of the temple.
22 Ya mere, oke ala nke ndị Livayị na ala ndị obodo ga-adị nʼetiti ala nke nwa eze nwee. Oke ala nke nwa eze ahụ ga-adị nʼetiti oke ala Juda na oke ala Benjamin.
So the Levitical property and the city property will lie in the center of the area belonging to the prince—the area between the borders of Judah and Benjamin.
23 “Ala e nyere ebo fọdụrụ dị otu a: “Benjamin ga-enwe otu oke, nke sitere nʼọwụwa anyanwụ ruo nʼọdịda anyanwụ.
As for the rest of the tribes: Benjamin will have one portion extending from the east side to the west side.

28 Ma oke ala Gad nke chere ihu nʼakụkụ ndịda ga-esi na Tama ruo nʼiyi Meriba Kadesh, sorokwa ọdọ mmiri Ijipt ruo nʼosimiri Mediterenịa.
The southern border of Gad will run from Tamar to the waters of Meribath-kadesh, then along the Brook of Egypt and out to the Great Sea.
29 “Nke a bụ ala unu ga-ekenye ebo Izrel niile dịka oke ha. Ha ga-abụkwara ha ihe nketa.” Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwubiri ya.
This is the land you are to allot as an inheritance to the tribes of Israel, and these will be their portions,” declares the Lord GOD.
30 “Ndị a ga-abụ ọnụ ụzọ ama e si apụ nʼobodo ahụ. “Nʼakụkụ nke ugwu, nke ịdị ogologo mgbidi ya bụ kilomita abụọ,

The perimeter of the city will be 18,000 cubits, and from that day on the name of the city will be: THE LORD IS THERE.”
