3 E terão eles as cidades para habitar, e os campos delas serão para seus animais, e para seus gados, e para todos seus animais.

4 E os campos das cidades que dareis aos levitas, serão mil côvados ao redor, desde o muro da cidade para fora.

5 Logo medireis fora da cidade à parte do oriente dois mil côvados, e à parte do sul dois mil côvados, e à parte do ocidente dois mil côvados, e à parte do norte dois mil côvados, e a cidade em meio: isto terão pelos campos das cidades.

6 E das cidades que dareis aos levitas, seis cidades serão de refúgio, as quais dareis para que o homicida se acolha ali: e também destas dareis quarenta e duas cidades.

7 Todas as cidades que dareis aos levitas serão quarenta e oito cidades; elas com seus campos.
