1 And here is a list of the tribal domains. First Dan, with its northern frontier on a line from Hethalon, across the Emath pass, to the Syrian frontier-town of Hazar Enan, and marching with Emath all the way; its eastern limit … the sea.[1] 2 Next, stretching from Israel’s eastern frontier to the sea, Aser; 3 next, in like manner, Nephthali; 4 next, in like manner, Manasses; 5 next, in like manner, Ephraim; 6 next, in like manner, Ruben; 7 next, in like manner, Juda.

1 Et hæc nomina tribuum a finibus aquilonis, juxta viam Hethalon, pergentibus Emath, atrium Enan terminus Damasci ad aquilonem, juxta viam Emath: et erit ei plaga orientalis mare, Dan una. 2 Et super terminum Dan, a plaga orientali usque ad plagam maris, Aser una. 3 Et super terminum Aser, a plaga orientali usque ad plagam maris, Nephthali una. 4 Et super terminum Nephthali, a plaga orientali usque ad plagam maris, Manasse una. 5 Et super terminum Manasse, a plaga orientali usque ad plagam maris, Ephraim una. 6 Et super terminum Ephraim, a plaga orientali usque ad plagam maris, Ruben una. 7 Et super terminum Ruben, a plaga orientali usque ad plagam maris, Juda una.

8 καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν ὁρίων Ιουδα ἀπὸ τῶν πρὸς ἀνατολὰς ἕως τῶν πρὸς θάλασσαν ἔσται ἡ ἀπαρχὴ τοῦ ἀφορισμοῦ πέντε καὶ εἴκοσι χιλιάδες εὖρος καὶ μῆκος καθὼς μία τῶν μερίδων ἀπὸ τῶν πρὸς ἀνατολὰς καὶ ἕως τῶν πρὸς θάλασσαν καὶ ἔσται τὸ ἅγιον ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῶν 9 ἀπαρχή ἣν ἀφοριοῦσι τῷ κυρίῳ μῆκος πέντε καὶ εἴκοσι χιλιάδες καὶ εὖρος εἴκοσι καὶ πέντε χιλιάδες 10 τούτων ἔσται ἡ ἀπαρχὴ τῶν ἁγίων τοῖς ἱερεῦσιν πρὸς βορρᾶν πέντε καὶ εἴκοσι χιλιάδες καὶ πρὸς θάλασσαν πλάτος δέκα χιλιάδες καὶ πρὸς ἀνατολὰς πλάτος δέκα χιλιάδες καὶ πρὸς νότον μῆκος εἴκοσι καὶ πέντε χιλιάδες καὶ τὸ ὄρος τῶν ἁγίων ἔσται ἐν μέσῳ αὐτοῦ 11 τοῖς ἱερεῦσι τοῖς ἡγιασμένοις υἱοῖς Σαδδουκ τοῖς φυλάσσουσι τὰς φυλακὰς τοῦ οἴκου οἵτινες οὐκ ἐπλανήθησαν ἐν τῇ πλανήσει υἱῶν Ισραηλ ὃν τρόπον ἐπλανήθησαν οἱ Λευῖται 12 καὶ ἔσται αὐτοῖς ἡ ἀπαρχὴ δεδομένη ἐκ τῶν ἀπαρχῶν τῆς γῆς ἅγιον ἁγίων ἀπὸ τῶν ὁρίων τῶν Λευιτῶν 13 τοῖς δὲ Λευίταις τὰ ἐχόμενα τῶν ὁρίων τῶν ἱερέων μῆκος πέντε καὶ εἴκοσι χιλιάδες καὶ εὖρος δέκα χιλιάδες πᾶν τὸ μῆκος πέντε καὶ εἴκοσι χιλιάδες καὶ εὖρος εἴκοσι χιλιάδες 14 οὐ πραθήσεται ἐξ αὐτοῦ οὐδὲ καταμετρηθήσεται οὐδὲ ἀφαιρεθήσεται τὰ πρωτογενήματα τῆς γῆς ὅτι ἅγιόν ἐστιν τῷ κυρίῳ 15 τὰς δὲ πέντε χιλιάδας τὰς περισσὰς ἐπὶ τῷ πλάτει ἐπὶ ταῖς πέντε καὶ εἴκοσι χιλιάσιν προτείχισμα ἔσται τῇ πόλει εἰς τὴν κατοικίαν καὶ εἰς διάστημα αὐτοῦ καὶ ἔσται ἡ πόλις ἐν μέσῳ αὐτοῦ 16 καὶ ταῦτα τὰ μέτρα αὐτῆς ἀπὸ τῶν πρὸς βορρᾶν πεντακόσιοι καὶ τετρακισχίλιοι καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν πρὸς νότον πεντακόσιοι καὶ τέσσαρες χιλιάδες καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν πρὸς ἀνατολὰς πεντακόσιοι καὶ τέσσαρες χιλιάδες καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν πρὸς θάλασσαν τετρακισχιλίους πεντακοσίους 17 καὶ ἔσται διάστημα τῇ πόλει πρὸς βορρᾶν διακόσιοι πεντήκοντα καὶ πρὸς νότον διακόσιοι καὶ πεντήκοντα καὶ πρὸς ἀνατολὰς διακόσιοι πεντήκοντα καὶ πρὸς θάλασσαν διακόσιοι πεντήκοντα 18 καὶ τὸ περισσὸν τοῦ μήκους τὸ ἐχόμενον τῶν ἀπαρχῶν τῶν ἁγίων δέκα χιλιάδες πρὸς ἀνατολὰς καὶ δέκα χιλιάδες πρὸς θάλασσαν καὶ ἔσονται αἱ ἀπαρχαὶ τοῦ ἁγίου καὶ ἔσται τὰ γενήματα αὐτῆς εἰς ἄρτους τοῖς ἐργαζομένοις τὴν πόλιν 19 οἱ δὲ ἐργαζόμενοι τὴν πόλιν ἐργῶνται αὐτὴν ἐκ πασῶν τῶν φυλῶν τοῦ Ισραηλ 20 πᾶσα ἡ ἀπαρχὴ πέντε καὶ εἴκοσι χιλιάδες ἐπὶ πέντε καὶ εἴκοσι χιλιάδας τετράγωνον ἀφοριεῖτε αὐτοῦ τὴν ἀπαρχὴν τοῦ ἁγίου ἀπὸ τῆς κατασχέσεως τῆς πόλεως 21 τὸ δὲ περισσὸν τῷ ἀφηγουμένῳ ἐκ τούτου καὶ ἐκ τούτου ἀπὸ τῶν ἀπαρχῶν τοῦ ἁγίου καὶ εἰς τὴν κατάσχεσιν τῆς πόλεως ἐπὶ πέντε καὶ εἴκοσι χιλιάδας μῆκος ἕως τῶν ὁρίων τῶν πρὸς ἀνατολὰς καὶ πρὸς θάλασσαν ἐπὶ πέντε καὶ εἴκοσι χιλιάδας ἕως τῶν ὁρίων τῶν πρὸς θάλασσαν ἐχόμενα τῶν μερίδων τοῦ ἀφηγουμένου καὶ ἔσται ἡ ἀπαρχὴ τῶν ἁγίων καὶ τὸ ἁγίασμα τοῦ οἴκου ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῆς 22 καὶ ἀπὸ τῆς κατασχέσεως τῶν Λευιτῶν καὶ ἀπὸ τῆς κατασχέσεως τῆς πόλεως ἐν μέσῳ τῶν ἀφηγουμένων ἔσται ἀνὰ μέσον τῶν ὁρίων Ιουδα καὶ ἀνὰ μέσον τῶν ὁρίων Βενιαμιν τῶν ἀφηγουμένων ἔσται

8 Next, in like manner, comes the strip of dedicated land you are to set apart; in breadth, twenty-five thousand cubits, in length, stretching from Israel’s frontier to the sea like the rest; and in the heart of it, the sanctuary. 9 The Lord’s own domain will be twenty-five thousand cubits by ten thousand; 10 and in this holy plot, measuring twenty-five thousand cubits north and south, ten thousand cubits east and west, the priests are to dwell, with the sanctuary in their midst. 11 Priests, I say, of Sadoc’s line, that held fast by my observances and never went a-straying with strayed Israel, as the other Levites did; 12 first-fruit of the first-fruits their domain shall be, the domain of the Levites marching with it. 13 This neighbouring strip will be of the same size, twenty-five thousand cubits by ten thousand; 14 sell their land they may not, nor exchange it; the consecrated ground is unalienable. 15 The remaining strip of five thousand cubits’ breadth shall be for city’s buildings and city’s lands; the city itself standing in the middle; 16 north, south, east and west it shall measure four thousand five hundred cubits; 17 north, south, east and west it shall have purlieus two hundred and fifty cubits deep. 18 In length, it will fall short of the Lord’s domain by ten thousand cubits on the east, and as much on the west; but this remaining space will be city lands, like the sanctuary lands, growing food for the needs of labouring men in the city; 19 these shall have the right to cultivate it, come they from what tribe they will. 20 All the length and breadth of this square of territory, twenty-five thousand cubits either way, shall be sanctuary enclosure and city lands; 21 beyond this square of sanctuary and city, all that is left of the dedicated domain, eastwards to the Jordan and westwards to the sea, shall belong to the prince; the hallowed plot that surrounds the temple shall divide his lands in two. 22 Royal lands and Levite lands shall march with Juda, royal lands and city lands with Benjamin.[2]

8 Et super terminum Juda, a plaga orientali usque ad plagam maris, erunt primitiæ quas separabitis, viginti quinque millibus latitudinis et longitudinis, sicuti singulæ partes a plaga orientali usque ad plagam maris: et erit sanctuarium in medio ejus. 9 Primitiæ quas separabitis Domino, longitudo viginti quinque millibus, et latitudo decem millibus. 10 Hæ autem erunt primitiæ sanctuarii sacerdotum, ad aquilonem longitudinis viginti quinque millia, et ad mare latitudinis decem millia, sed et ad orientem latitudinis decem millia, et ad meridiem longitudinis viginti quinque millia: et erit sanctuarium Domini in medio ejus. 11 Sacerdotibus sanctuarium erit de filiis Sadoc, qui custodierunt cæremonias meas, et non erraverunt cum errarent filii Israël, sicut erraverunt et Levitæ. 12 Et erunt eis primitiæ de primitiis terræ Sanctum sanctorum, juxta terminum Levitarum. 13 Sed et Levitis similiter, juxta fines sacerdotum, viginti quinque millia longitudinis, et latitudinis decem millia. Omnis longitudo viginti et quinque millium, et latitudo decem millium. 14 Et non venundabunt ex eo, neque mutabunt: neque transferentur primitiæ terræ, quia sanctificatæ sunt Domino. 15 Quinque millia autem quæ supersunt in latitudine per viginti quinque millia, profana erunt urbis in habitaculum et in suburbana: et erit civitas in medio ejus. 16 Et hæ mensuræ ejus: ad plagam septentrionalem, quingenta et quatuor millia: et ad plagam meridianam, quingenta et quatuor millia: et ad plagam orientalem, quingenta et quatuor millia: et ad plagam occidentalem, quingenta et quatuor millia. 17 Erunt autem suburbana civitatis ad aquilonem, ducenta quinquaginta: et ad meridiem, ducenta quinquaginta: et ad orientem, ducenta quinquaginta: et ad mare, ducenta quinquaginta. 18 Quod autem reliquum fuerit in longitudine secundum primitias sanctuarii, decem millia in orientem, et decem millia in occidentem, erunt sicut primitiæ sanctuarii: et erunt fruges ejus in panes his qui serviunt civitati. 19 Servientes autem civitati, operabuntur ex omnibus tribubus Israël. 20 Omnes primitiæ viginti quinque millium, per viginti quinque millia in quadrum, separabuntur in primitias sanctuarii, et in possessionem civitatis. 21 Quod autem reliquum fuerit, principis erit ex omni parte primitiarum sanctuarii, et possessionis civitatis e regione viginti quinque millium primitiarum usque ad terminum orientalem: sed et ad mare, e regione viginti quinque millium, usque ad terminum maris, similiter in partibus principis erit: et erunt primitiæ sanctuarii, et sanctuarium templi, in medio ejus. 22 De possessione autem Levitarum, et de possessione civitatis in medio partium principis, erit inter terminum Juda et inter terminum Benjamin, et ad principem pertinebit.

23 καὶ τὸ περισσὸν τῶν φυλῶν ἀπὸ τῶν πρὸς ἀνατολὰς ἕως τῶν πρὸς θάλασσαν Βενιαμιν μία 24 καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν ὁρίων τῶν Βενιαμιν ἀπὸ τῶν πρὸς ἀνατολὰς ἕως τῶν πρὸς θάλασσαν Συμεων μία 25 καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν ὁρίων τῶν Συμεων ἀπὸ τῶν πρὸς ἀνατολὰς ἕως τῶν πρὸς θάλασσαν Ισσαχαρ μία 26 καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν ὁρίων τῶν Ισσαχαρ ἀπὸ τῶν πρὸς ἀνατολὰς ἕως τῶν πρὸς θάλασσαν Ζαβουλων μία 27 καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν ὁρίων τῶν Ζαβουλων ἀπὸ τῶν πρὸς ἀνατολὰς ἕως τῶν πρὸς θάλασσαν Γαδ μία 28 καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν ὁρίων τῶν Γαδ ἕως τῶν πρὸς λίβα καὶ ἔσται τὰ ὅρια αὐτοῦ ἀπὸ Θαιμαν καὶ ὕδατος Μαριμωθ Καδης κληρονομίας ἕως τῆς θαλάσσης τῆς μεγάλης 29 αὕτη ἡ γῆ ἣν βαλεῖτε ἐν κλήρῳ ταῖς φυλαῖς Ισραηλ καὶ οὗτοι οἱ διαμερισμοὶ αὐτῶν λέγει κύριος θεός

23 For the rest of the tribes, Benjamin comes first, stretching from Israel’s frontier on the east to the sea on the west; 24 next, in like manner, Simeon; 25 next, in like manner, Issachar; 26 next, in like manner, Zabulon; 27 next, in like manner, Gad. 28 Gad shall be the southernmost, facing the noon-day sun, with a frontier running from Thamar to the Waters of Challenge at Cades, and along the Brook[3] to the Great Sea. 29 Such shall be the territory allotted to Israel’s tribes, the Lord God says, and thus allotted they shall be.

23 Et reliquis tribubus, a plaga orientali usque ad plagam occidentalem, Benjamin una. 24 Et contra terminum Benjamin, a plaga orientali usque ad plagam occidentalem, Simeon una. 25 Et super terminum Simeonis, a plaga orientali usque ad plagam occidentalem, Issachar una. 26 Et super terminum Issachar, a plaga orientali usque ad plagam occidentalem, Zabulon una. 27 Et super terminum Zabulon, a plaga orientali usque ad plagam maris, Gad una. 28 Et super terminum Gad, ad plagam austri in meridie: et erit finis de Thamar usque ad aquas contradictionis Cades: hæreditas contra mare magnum. 29 Hæc est terra quam mittetis in sortem tribubus Israël, et hæ partitiones earum, ait Dominus Deus.

30 καὶ αὗται αἱ διεκβολαὶ τῆς πόλεως αἱ πρὸς βορρᾶν τετρακισχίλιοι καὶ πεντακόσιοι μέτρῳ 31 καὶ αἱ πύλαι τῆς πόλεως ἐ{P'} ὀνόμασιν φυλῶν τοῦ Ισραηλ πύλαι τρεῖς πρὸς βορρᾶν πύλη Ρουβην μία καὶ πύλη Ιουδα μία καὶ πύλη Λευι μία 32 καὶ τὰ πρὸς ἀνατολὰς τετρακισχίλιοι καὶ πεντακόσιοι καὶ πύλαι τρεῖς πύλη Ιωσηφ μία καὶ πύλη Βενιαμιν μία καὶ πύλη Δαν μία 33 καὶ τὰ πρὸς νότον τετρακισχίλιοι καὶ πεντακόσιοι μέτρῳ καὶ πύλαι τρεῖς πύλη Συμεων μία καὶ πύλη Ισσαχαρ μία καὶ πύλη Ζαβουλων μία 34 καὶ τὰ πρὸς θάλασσαν τετρακισχίλιοι καὶ πεντακόσιοι μέτρῳ καὶ πύλαι τρεῖς πύλη Γαδ μία καὶ πύλη Ασηρ μία καὶ πύλη Νεφθαλιμ μία 35 κύκλωμα δέκα καὶ ὀκτὼ χιλιάδες καὶ τὸ ὄνομα τῆς πόλεως ἀ{F'} ἧς ἂν ἡμέρας γένηται ἔσται τὸ ὄνομα αὐτῆς

30 And these are the city’s limits; on the north side, measure four thousand five hundred cubits; 31 and here (for all must be named after Israel’s tribes) are three gates named after Ruben, Juda and Levi. 32 As many on the east, and here are gates named after Joseph, Benjamin, and Dan. 33 As many on the south, and here are gates named after Simeon, Issachar and Zabulon. 34 As many on the west, and here are gates named after Gad, Aser and Nephthali. 35 The whole circumference is one of eighteen thousand cubits. THE LORD IS THERE; such is the name by which the city will be known ever after.

30 Et hi egressus civitatis: a plaga septentrionali, quingentos et quatuor millia mensurabis. 31 Et portæ civitatis ex nominibus tribuum Israël: portæ tres a septentrione: porta Ruben una, porta Juda una, porta Levi una. 32 Et ad plagam orientalem, quingentos et quatuor millia, et portæ tres: porta Joseph una, porta Benjamin una, porta Dan una. 33 Et ad plagam meridianam, quingentos et quatuor millia metieris, et portæ tres: porta Simeonis una, porta Issachar una, porta Zabulon una. 34 Et ad plagam occidentalem, quingentos et quatuor millia, et portæ eorum tres: porta Gad una, porta Aser una, porta Nephthali una. 35 Per circuitum, decem et octo millia: et nomen civitatis ex illa die, Dominus ibidem.

[1] It seems probable that the original text ran, ‘Its eastern limit the eastern limit of Israel, its western limit the sea’.

[2] The order of the words in this verse implies, what is not clearly stated elsewhere, that the Levite domain was on the north of the sacred enclosure, the city lands on the south of it.

[3] As in 47.19; the Latin version has misread the word ‘brook’ as ‘portion’.
