2 Asher will have one portion bordering the territory of Dan from east to west.

3 Naphtali will have one portion bordering the territory of Asher from east to west.

4 Manasseh will have one portion bordering the territory of Naphtali from east to west.

5 Ephraim will have one portion bordering the territory of Manasseh from east to west.

6 Reuben will have one portion bordering the territory of Ephraim from east to west.

7 Judah will have one portion bordering the territory of Reuben from east to west.

8 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.

9 The special portion you set apart to the LORD shall be 25,000 cubits long and 10,000 cubits wide.

10 This will be the holy portion for the priests. It will be 25,000 cubits long on the north side, 10,000 cubits wide on the west side, 10,000 cubits wide on the east side, and 25,000 cubits long on the south side. In the center will be the sanctuary of the LORD.
