A These are the names of the trybes that
lye vpon the northsyde, by the waye
of Hetlon, tyll thou c&obar;mest vnto Hemath
and Hazar Enam, the borders of Damascus
towarde the north besyde Hemath:
Dan shall haue hys porcyon from the easte
quarter vnto the west. Upon the borders of
Dan from the east syde vnto the west, shall

Upon the borders of Iuda fr&obar; the east part

of .xxv.M. meteroddes longe and brode, like
as an another porcyon fr&obar; the east syde vnto
the west, wherin the sanctuary shall stande.
noteAs for the porcy&obar; that ye shall separate,
out for the Lorde, it shalbe .xxv.M longe
∧ .x.M. brode. Which separated holy porcion

towarde the north .xxv.M. and towarde
the west .x.M. brode, towarde the east .x.M.
brode also, ∧ towarde the south .xxv.M.
longe, wherin þe; sanctuary of the Lord shall

that are of the children of note Sadoch and haue
kept my holy ordina&ubar;ce: which went not
astraye in the erroure of the children of Israel,
B
lyke as the leuites ar gone astraye: and
thys separated pece that they haue of lande,
shalbe the most holy, harde vp&obar; the borders
of the leuites. And next vnto þe; prestes shall
the leuites haue .xxv.M. longe, and .x.M.
broade. Thys shalbe on euery syde .xxv.M.
longe, and .x.M. brode. Of this porcy&obar; they
shall sell nothing, ner make any permutati&obar;
therof, lest the chefe of the lande fall vnto
other, for it is halowed vnto the Lorde.
The other .v.M. after the bredth þt; lyeth
by the .xxv.M. shalbe com&ebar;: it shall belonge
to the citye and to the suburbes for habitations,
and the citie shall st&abar;de in the middest

The suburbes harde vpon the citye, shall
haue towarde the north .l. and .ij.C. toward
the south .l. and .ij.C. towarde the east .l. and
ij.C. towarde the west also .l. and .ij.C. As
for the residue of the length, that lyeth harde
vpon the separated holy gro&ubar;de: namely .x.M.
towarde the east, and .x.M. towarde the
the west, nexte vnto the holy porcion: it and
the increase therof shall serue for their meat:
-- --
that laboure in the citye. They that laboure
for the wealth of the citye, shall maynteyne
thys also, out of what trybe soeuer they be
in Israel.
All that is separated of the .xxv.M. l&obar;ge
and .xxv.M. brode on the foure partes, that

belonge to the prynce, before the place of the
xxv.M. vnto the eastende, ∧ before the place
of the .xxv.M. westwarde vnto the borders
of the citye: this shalbe the prynces porcyon.
Thys shalbe the holy place, and the house of
the sanctuary shall stande in the myddest.
Moreouer, from the leuytes and the cityes
possession, that lye in the middest of the princes
parte: loke what remayneth betwixt the
border of Iuda and the border of B&ebar;iamin,
it shalbe the prynces.
Nowe of the other trybes.
From the east parte vnto the west, shall
Beniamin haue his porcyon. Upon the borders
of Beniamin from the eastsyde vnto þe;
west, shall Simeon haue his porcion. Upon
the borders of Symeon from the east parte
vnto the west, shall Isakar haue his porci&obar;.
D Upon the borders of Isakar from the east
syde vnto the west, shall Zabulon haue hys
porcion. Upon the borders of Zabulon from
the east parte vnto the west, shall Gad haue

the coastes shall reach from Thamar
forth vnto the waters of stryfe to Cades, ∧
to the floude, euen vnto the mayne see.
Thys is the lande with hys note porcyons,
which ye shall dystribute vnto the trybes of
Israel, sayeth the Lorde God. Thus wyde
shall the citye reach vpon the north parte .v.C.
and .iiij.M. measures. The portes of the
citye, shall haue the names of the trybes of
Israel. Thre portes of the northsyde: one
