MLV(i)
1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses in the plains of Moab by the Jordan at Jericho, saying,
2 Command the sons of Israel, that they give from the inheritance of their possession to the Levites cities to dwell in. And you* will give suburbs for the cities all around them to the Levites.
3 And they will have the cities to dwell in and their suburbs will be for their cattle and for their substance and for all their beasts.
4 And the suburbs of the cities, which you* will give to the Levites, will be from the wall of the city and outward a thousand cubits all around.
5 And you* will measure outside the city for the east side two thousand cubits and for the south side two thousand cubits and for the west side two thousand cubits and for the north side two thousand cubits, the city being in the midst. This will be to them the suburbs of the cities.
6 And of the cities which you* will give to the Levites, there will be the six cities of refuge, which you* will give for the manslayer to flee to. And besides them you* will give forty-two cities.
7 All the cities which you* will give to the Levites will be forty-eight cities, them with their suburbs.
8 And concerning the cities which you* will give of the possession of the sons of Israel, from the many you* will take many and from the few you* will take few. Everyone according to his inheritance which he inherits will give of his cities to the Levites.
