Ezekiel 44:31

← Ezekiel 44:30	Ezekiel 44:31 (KJV)	Ezekiel 45:1 →
And the first of all the firstfruits of all [things], and every oblation of all, of every [sort] of your oblations, shall be the priest's: ye shall also give unto the priest the first of your dough, that he may cause the blessing to rest in thine house.	The priests shall not eat of any thing that is dead of itself, or torn, whether it be fowl or beast.	Moreover, when ye shall divide by lot the land for inheritance, ye shall offer an oblation unto the LORD, an holy portion of the land: the length [shall be] the length of five and twenty thousand [reeds], and the breadth [shall be] ten thousand. This [shall be] holy in all the borders thereof round about.
