As the city’s property, you are to assign an area five thousand cubits wide and twenty-five thousand cubits long[a] along one side of the holy contribution.[b] It will belong to the whole house of Israel.

For the prince, an area is to be set aside on both sides of the holy contribution and of the area for the city. It will run alongside the holy contribution and alongside the city’s property. On the west side of the city, it will extend west along the tribal boundaries to the western boundary of the land, and on the east side, it will extend eastward in the same way. This land is to be the prince’s property in Israel, so that my princes will no longer oppress my people but will allot the land to the house of Israel according to their tribes.
