Now these are the names of the tribes: At the edge, on the north side, along the road on the way to Chethlon, as far as Chamath, Chazar-'enan, the boundary of Damascus northward, alongside of Chamath, there shall be from the east side to the west for Dan one portion.

8 Et super terminum Iuda, a plaga Orientali usque ad plagam Maris, erunt primitiae, quas separabitis, vigintiquinque millibus latitudinis et longitudinis, sicuti singulae partes a plaga Orientali usque ad plagam Maris: et erit sanctuarium in medio eius.

And by the boundary of Judah, from the east side unto the west side, shall be the oblation which ye shall set aside of five and twenty thousand rods 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 Primitiae, quas separabitis Domino: longitudo vigintiquinque millibus, et latitudo decem millibus.

The oblation that ye shall set aside unto the Lord shall be in length five and twenty thousand [rods], and in breadth ten thousand.

10 Hae autem erunt primitiae sanctuarii sacerdotum: ad Aquilonem longitudinis vigintiquinque millia, et ad Mare latitudinis decem millia, sed et ad Orientem latitudinis decem millia, et ad Meridiem longitudinis vigintiquinque millia: et erit sanctuarium Domini in medio eius.

And to these shall belong the holy oblation, —namely to the priests, toward the north, five and twenty thousand rods [in length], and on the west ten thousand in breadth, and on the east ten thousand in breadth, and on the south five and twenty thousand in length: and the sanctuary of the Lord shall be in the midst of it.

11 Sacerdotibus sanctuarium erit de filiis Sadoc, qui custodierunt ceremonias meas, et non erraverunt cum errarent filii Israel, sicut erraverunt et Levitae.

Unto the priests, that are sanctified, of the sons of Zadok, who have kept my charge, who went not astray when the children of Israel went astray, as the Levites went astray.

12 Et erunt eis primitiae de primitiis terrae sanctum sanctorum, iuxta terminum Levitarum.

To them shall thus belong the portion set aside of the oblation of the land as a most holy thing by the boundary of the Levites.

13 Sed et Levitis similiter iuxta fines sacerdotum vigintiquinque millia longitudinis, et latitudinis decem millia. Omnis longitudo viginti et quinque millium, et latitudo decem millium.

And the Levites shall have alongside the boundary of the priests five and twenty thousand rods in length, and in breadth ten thousand; the whole in length five and twenty thousand, and in breadth ten thousand.

14 Et non venundabunt ex eo, neque mutabunt, neque transferentur primitiae terrae, quia sanctificatae sunt Domino.

But they shall not sell aught thereof, or exchange, or alienate this first portion of the land; for it is holy unto the Lord.

15 Quinque millia autem quae supersunt in latitudine per vigintiquinque millia, profana erunt urbis in habitaculum, et in suburbana: et erit civitas in medio eius.

And the five thousand rods, that are left in the breadth, with a length of five and twenty thousand, shall be an unconsecrated land for the city, for dwelling, and for an open space: and the city shall be in the midst thereof.

16 Et hae mensurae eius: ad plagam Septentrionalem quingenta et quattuor millia: et ad plagam Meridianam, quingenta et quattuor millia: et ad plagam Orientalem, quingenta et quattuor millia: et ad plagam Occidentalem, quingenta et quattuor millia.

And these shall be its measures: The north side four thousand and five hundred [rods], 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 Erunt autem suburbana civitatis ad Aquilonem ducenta quinquaginta, et ad Meridiem ducenta quinquaginta, et ad Orientem ducenta quinquaginta, et ad Mare ducenta quinquaginta.

And the open space of the city shall be toward the north two hundred and fifty [rods], 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 Quod autem reliquum fuerit in longitudine secundum primitias sanctuarii, decem millia in Orientem, et decem millia in Occidentem, erunt sicut primitiae sanctuarii: et erunt fruges eius in panes his, qui serviunt civitati.

And the produce of the residue in length alongside the holy oblation ten thousand rods eastward, and ten thousand westward, that which is alongside the holy oblation, shall be for food unto the laborers of the city.

19 Servientes autem civitati, operabuntur ex omnibus tribubus Israel.

And the laborers of the city, men taken out of all the tribes of Israel, shall till it.

20 Omnes primitiae, vigintiquinque millium, per vigintiquinque millia in quadrum, separabuntur in primitias sanctuarii, et in possessionem civitatis.

All the oblation, five and twenty thousand [rods] by five and twenty thousand square, shall ye set apart as the holy oblation, with the possession of the city.

21 Quod autem reliquum fuerit, principis erit ex omni parte primitiarum sanctuarii, et possessionis civitatis e regione vigintiquinque millium primitiarum usque ad terminum Orientalem: sed et ad Mare e regione vigintiquinque millium usque ad terminum maris, similiter in partibus principis erit: et erunt primitiae sanctuarii, et sanctuarium templi in medio eius.

And the residue shall belong to the prince, on the one side and on the other of the holy oblation, and of the possession of the city, alongside of the five and twenty thousand of the oblation toward the eastern boundary, and westward alongside the five and twenty thousand toward the western boundary, alongside the portions [of the tribes]; for the prince [shall it be]: and so shall be the holy oblation; and the sanctuary of the house shall be in the midst thereof.

22 De possessione autem Levitarum, et de possessione civitatis in medio partium principis: erit in terminum Iuda, et in terminum Beniamin, et ad principem pertinebit.

And both the possession of the Levites, and the possession of the city, shall be in the midst of that which belongeth to the prince: between the boundary of Judah and the boundary of Benjamin, shall be for the prince.

23 Et reliquis tribubus: A plaga Orientali usque ad plagam Occidentalem, Beniamin una.

As for the rest of the tribes, from the east side unto the west side, shall be for Benjamin one portion.

And by the boundary of Gad, on the southern side toward the south, shall be the boundary from Thamar unto the waters of contention of Kadesh, unto the brook by the Great Sea.

29 Haec est terra, quam mittetis in sortem tribubus Israel: et hae partitiones earum, ait Dominus Deus.

This is the land which ye shall divide by lot for an inheritance to the tribes of Israel, and these are their allotted divisions, saith the Lord Eternal.

30 Et hi egressus civitatis: A plaga Septentrionali quingentos et quattuor millia mensurabis.

And these are the outlines of the city: On the north side, five hundred and four thousand rods, by the measure.

31 Et portae civitatis ex nominibus tribuum Israel, portae tres a Septentrione, porta Ruben una, porta Iuda una, porta Levi una.

And of the gates of the city, being after the names of the tribes of Israel, shall be three gates on the north: the gate of Reuben one, the gate of Judah one, the gate of Levi one.
