This {is} the land which ye shall divide by lot unto the tribes of Israel for inheritance, and these {are} their portions, saith the Lord GOD.

And Moses commanded the children of Israel, saying, This {is} the land which ye shall inherit by lot, which the LORD commanded to give unto the nine tribes, and to the half tribe:

In that day shall there be upon the bells of the horses, HOLINESS UNTO THE LORD; and the pots in the LORD'S house shall be like the bowls before the altar. {bells: or, bridles}

And by the border of Judah, from the east side unto the west side, shall be the offering which ye shall offer of five and twenty thousand {reeds 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.

The LORD {is} the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup: thou maintainest my lot. {of mine...: Heb. of my part}

By lot {was} their inheritance, as the LORD commanded by the hand of Moses, for the nine tribes, and {for} the half tribe.

So shall ye divide this land unto you according to the tribes of Israel.

The land shall not be sold for ever: for the land {is} mine; for ye {are} strangers and sojourners with me. {for ever: or, to be quite cut off: Heb. for cutting off}

Honour the LORD with thy substance, and with the firstfruits of all thine increase:

All the inhabitants of the hill country from Lebanon unto Misrephothmaim, {and} all the Sidonians, them will I drive out from before the children of Israel: only divide thou it by lot unto the Israelites for an inheritance, as I have commanded thee.

Of this there shall be for the sanctuary five hundred {in length}, with five hundred {in breadth}, square round about; and fifty cubits round about for the suburbs thereof. {suburbs: or, void places}

And by the border of Judah, from the east side unto the west side, shall be the offering which ye shall offer of five and twenty thousand {reeds 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.

Command the children of Israel, that they give unto the Levites of the inheritance of their possession cities to dwell in; and ye shall give {also} unto the Levites suburbs for the cities round about them.

And the whole valley of the dead bodies, and of the ashes, and all the fields unto the brook of Kidron, unto the corner of the horse gate toward the east, {shall be} holy unto the LORD; it shall not be plucked up, nor thrown down any more for ever.

Moreover I will make a covenant of peace with them; it shall be an everlasting covenant with them: and I will place them, and multiply them, and will set my sanctuary in the midst of them for evermore.

The holy {portion} of the land shall be for the priests the ministers of the sanctuary, which shall come near to minister unto the LORD: and it shall be a place for their houses, and an holy place for the sanctuary.
